I attend many of the crops in our area (Erie, PA).  These events, often usually held at churches or halls, are a fun way to network, get some scrapbooking or other projects done, and get away from the cooking etc. at home. This month, I am still working on some pages from the 1980’s – […]

I have been seeing cotton everywhere in stores for fall decor.  And the Country Home stamp set by Stampin’ Up! is right on trend. The last photo is of my Country Home class projects from September.  Scroll back to late September for even more Country Home ideas.  Purchase the Country Home stamp set (my hands […]

It’s getting closer to the Thanksgiving holiday – time to make and send a few cards of thankfulness.  The Pleasant Pheasants, Falling For Leaves and Country Home stamp sets are all great for both cards and home decor too – think place cards, treat holders, samplers and more. Here are a few samples by Stampin’ […]

Stampin’ Up! is 30 years old and we are throwing a party!   We are all about stamps, and there is a long list of stamp sets 15 off at my shop – but only for 24 hours on October 23. Have a long shopping list?  Consider the Demonstrator Starter Kit and begin your own adventure.  […]

Fall color is all around, and what better way to copy nature than with stamps, paper and ink.  The Falling for Leaves bundle is perfect for fall and Thanksgiving cards.

Peak color is this week in my neck of the woods (Erie, PA) so it’s time to share some leafy projects. Tip:  The Soft Suede panel is raised with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  This card is so simple – cut, stamp, glue. This second card was made from scraps – otherwise I would have matted the vanilla […]

Happy World Card Making Day!  I hope you get a chance to craft some handmade cards today.  And even more importantly – get them mailed on Monday to bless someone with the gift of your thoughtfulness. Kits are a great way to make beautiful cards fast.  (There are several on sale this week)! I made […]

Happy October! (Yes it’s time to work on those Fall and Halloween projects). Happy World Card Making Day! (Celebrate a few days early with a sale). and Happy New Stampin’ Up! Year! (with a brand new chance to earn a trip – Maui in 2020!) My daughter informed me that yesterday’s card would look better […]

I wasn’t going to get the Toil and Trouble Designer Series Paper, but then I did.    Because it is so cute.  And it is not just for Halloween.   And it has the colors Gorgeous Grape and Granny Apple Green.  Need I say more. I used several different stamp sets with the paper since I […]
