It’s time for another CASE the Designer Challenge with the Global Design Project. There are so many places to find inspiration for the projects we make – I love the opportunity to create a project that’s inspired by the art of my fellow team members on GDP. Always a joy! This week we are CASEing a design by Stesha Bloodhart, my talented friend from Wisconsin. What fun! Here’s my card for this week’s challenge: And…
If you are looking for a cute way to say “I’m proud of you” then look no further than Stampin’ Up!’s 2018 Annual Catalog. I connected the Little Elephant Bundle and Friendly Expressions stamp set in a sweet and simple card. I’m excited to share it with you today. Here’s my card: And here’s the banner for this week’s Freshly Made Sketches challenge that inspired my card: Tips, Tricks and Reminders Sweet Combination. I stamped…
I had no idea where I was going when I started to make the card I’m sharing with you today, but I’m so happy with where I ended up. I have wanted to introduce my Butterfly Beauty Thinlits to my Big Shot since they first arrived in my pre-order for the Occasions Catalog. Today was the day. Here’s my card: Tips, Tricks and Reminders Beauty Abounds & the Butterfly Beauty Thinlits Dies. Do you love…
I love to collect and use Stampin’ Up!’s Designer Series Papers. What a great way to find inspiration for our projects! The colors and patterns pair perfectly with other products we love. Since Petal Promenade debuted in Stampin’ Up!’s 2018 Annual Catalog, I have shared several projects that showcase its colors and patterns in a variety of projects. I’m excited to share a bit more about these papers today. Not only is this paper available…
“I thought of you today” – what a wonderful sentiment that let someone know how special they are to you. A friend doesn’t have to be hurting to appreciate this sweet acknowledgment. Paired with flowers and leaves from Painted Seasons, this sentiment from Climbing Roses really shines. Here’s my notecard-sized card: And here’s the banner for Donna Mikasa’s sketch challenge that inspired my card: Tips, Tricks and Reminders Two Great Bundles. My simple card features…
I had so much fun sharing the Painted Seasons stamp set and coordinating Four Seasons Framelits Dies with my local stamp club this past weekend. Such a sweet set with awe-inspiring results. In yesterday’s post, I shared one of the cards we made with this incredible Sale-a-Bration offering – you can see that post here. Today I’m going to share some pointers for getting the most out of these stamps and some color combinations for…
I’m head-over-heals in love with the Painted Seasons Bundle – a collection of fauna and flora that are part of Stampin’ Up!’s Sale-a-Bration release from February 15.

The Painted Seasons Dinstinktive stamp set also coordinates with the Four Seasons Framelits Dies, a Sale-a-Bration Coordination offering that’s available for purchase (and helps…
The Global Design Project crew is kicking off a theme challenge this week – and it’s really sweet. Literally. Our projects this week focus on sugary sweets – candy, cake and ice cream. What fun! I knew I wanted to use one of the sweet cupcakes from the Detailed Birthday Edgelits. I layered the cupcake with bright colors and mounted it on a mini pizza box. Sweet! Here’s my project: And here’s the banner for…
Bravery: the quality or state of having or showing mental or moral strength to face danger, fear, or difficulty. While there are amazing acts of bravery around us every day, the term has almost become synonymous with the courage and energy one expends to fight against the physical invasions of cancer. Bravery not only defines those who win, but it honors the tenacity of everyone who fights to win. My card today features a variety…
Since the launch of Sale-a-Bration in January, Stampin’ Up! has periodically released new products to supplement the Sale-a-Bration earnings.

Keeping track of all the new and amazing free products can feel like a full-time job, but you don’t have to do any work – let me do the work for you. Today I’m going to share the…
