When I sat down to make today’s card for the FabFriday sketch challenge that launches today, I wasn’t prepared for how much I would love it. I don’t dabble in a lot of pinks and purples, so this card was a little out of my comfort zone. I knew there was something magical about the sweet unicorn in A Magical Day, so I started there, and the rest just fell into place. Here’s my card…
I may need an intervention to keep me away from the amazing papers in the pack of Picture Perfect Party 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Papers. I love the photographic papers in this pack – and the colors and patterns on the opposite side are pretty great, too! I couldn’t stay away as I made this quick-and-simple card for this week’s CAS(E) This Sketch challenge. Here’s my card: And here’s the banner for Donna Mikasa’s…
Yesterday I shared the Lots to Love Box I made with my local stamp club this past weekend. If you missed that post, please click here. In my post yesterday, I promised to show you what we tucked inside these fun boxes, but I’m ALSO going to share a quick tip for those who want to make multiples of this box or share this box with their own stamp groups. There are so many great…
My local stamp group took “a little time off” during the Holidays, so I was really excited to see them all this past weekend and to share the new products from Stampin’ Up!’s 2018 Occasions Catalog. Today I’m going to share one of the projects we made during our Sunday afternoon meetup. With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, we created with two heart-filled stamp sets – Sure Do Love You and Heart Happiness –…
This week’s Global Design Project Color Challenge showcases three colors: Sweet Sugarplum, Bermuda Bay and Peekaboo Peach. That’s a tough combination, but I love all of the projects by the design team members. While I used all three of the colors in my project, I focused on Bermuda Bay and Peekaboo Peach. The focal image is from a must-have stamp set in Stampin’ Up!’s 2018 Sale-a-Bration brochure – Happy Wishes. Here’s my card: And here’s…
This week’s Freshly Made Sketches challenge gave me a perfect opportunity to showcase the fun balloons in Stampin’ Up!’s Picture Perfect Party Designer Series Paper. Thanks, Rita Wright! I love this paper and had fun showcasing it for this sweet-and-simple card. Who doesn’t love beautiful colors and bright balloons on their birthday? Here’s my card: And here’s the banner for Rita’s Freshly Made Sketches challenge that inspired my card: Tips, Tricks and Reminders Picture Perfect…
I love witty, and I love fun! While birthday cards can be buttoned-up and mature, they certainly shouldn’t always be. Between friends, birthday cards offer a little jab at the recipient. If you like a little sarcasm and fun, then Birthday Wit is the stamp set for you. Here’s my card that features this new stamp set: Tips, Tricks and Reminders Birthday Wit. Food is essential for life. I know that dietary restrictions and allergies…
I absolutely love new catalogs because I love new products. More than anything else, I love to get my hands on new Designer Series Papers – the colors and patterns make me very happy and get my creative mind going. To share each of these papers with you, I’ve created a graphic to show the pages in each pack of paper along with the name of each paper, the product # and the colors included…
Today we kick off my second week as a Design Team Member for CAS(E) This Sketch. It’s still so surreal for me. I hemmed-and-hawed about how I could create a project with this week’s sketch – a frame with flowers hanging off of it – what could I use? I decided to just make a card with the gorgeous cake from the Cake Soirée Bundle when it hit me! This IS my card for the…
Yesterday I shared the Perennial Birthday Project Kit (a project kit to make a set of 16 cards) that Mom put together while she was visiting last week. Well, she offed with the card box and the cards she made, but she left the Perennial Birthday stamp set on my desk. I decided to use the “here’s to celebrating you” sentiment to make this card: Tips, Tricks and Reminders Perennial Birthday. While this sentiment is…
