All-Around Wreath for CTS344

The Tidings All Around Bundle (including the Tidings All Around stamp set and coordinating All-Around Wreath Dies) is featured in the Toile Tidings Suite of products in Stampin’ Up!’s 2019 Holiday Catalog. While the bundle is presented as a Christmas bundle, the wreath can be used throughout the year. I made a Fall wreath for this week’s CAS(E) This Sketch challenge. Here’s my card: And here’s the banner for the challenge that inspired my card:…

SPOOKY for the InKing Royalty Blog Hop

Many of my Stampin’ Up! team members (not only those with blogs) share their gorgeous projects in our team’s Facebook community – there’s such amazing and inspiring creativity in this group! I’m always excited when my team’s blog hop rolls around, though, because I get to share some of their amazing work with you. I’m just as excited to see their projects as you are, and I am proud to share them with you. Welcome…

Selina’s Stamping Notebook

I love the members of my local stamp club. This group has been meeting to stamp longer than I have been a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator (so they teach me new things every time we meet). We meet monthly during some parts of the year (Sale-a-Bration) and every-other-month during most of the year. I love to share pictures from our stamp clubs when we get together – the joy on their faces is always fun to…

The Perfect Place to Be for GDP211

While we are busy making holiday cards, friends and family are getting engaged, celebrating birthdays and welcoming babies. I’m going out on a limb here, but I don’t think any of them want to honor their celebrations with images of Santa Claus or pumpkins. We have so many other products we can be reaching for this time of year, too. 🙂 Here’s my card for this week’s Global Design Project “Happily Ever After” theme challenge:…

Wow! Yesterday was amazing! I’m so glad so many of you popped in to comment on my Blog Candy Giveaway post. Y’all have some really great traditions during the holidays.

Brian’s Big Blog Candy Giveaway – This Weekend Only

At some point over the last couple of months, I have ordered a couple of things from Stampin’ Up! that I already had. Have you ever heard of such?! No one has ever duplicate-ordered products before, right? I can’t think of anything better than to give these goodies away to one of my loyal blog readers – can you? These products are brand new and in pristine condition. I want to make sure these wonderful,…

Gather Together for FabFri174

I love the clash between orange and pink. Whether it’s soft mix of pink and orange (like a sorbet or a sunset) or a bright mix of pink and orange (like a bouquet of roses or a flamingo), these two colors never seem like they should look great together (but always do). This week’s color challenge at FabFriday pushed me to make a bright, Fall-themed card with this fun mix of Pumpkin Pie and Melon…

Winter Woods for CTS343

I’ve been reaching for my Winter Woods stamp set (and coordinating In the Woods Dies) a lot lately. Maybe it’s because I’m hoping for the Summer weather to be over? The trees are beautiful – there’s no denying it. Here’s my card with the gorgeous Winter Woods stamp set: And here’s the banner for the challenge that inspired my card: Tips, Tricks and Reminders Winter Woods & Jolly Season Dies. I’ve been reaching for my…

A Pretty Purple Posy Tag

In June, I hosted Brian’s 2019-2021 In Color Bundles where customers could purchase all of the new In Color products with a small discount and gift from me. These Brian’s Bundles were mailed out without Purple Posy ink or ink refills due to quality issues with the Purple Posy ink (Stampin’ Up! removed the soft purple ink from the online store until they could get it right). Guess what! They got it right – and…
