I have been having so much fun with the Sale-a-bration freebies from Stampin’ Up! and now we have even more to choose from! Botanical Layers is in the Annual Catalog and my neglected set deserved some love. I found it very easy to use and pair with sentiments for many occasions. I used my color […]

Hooray for Surprises Valentine

Posted: Wednesday, January 31st, 2024 @ 11:21 am in Projects | No Comments »

The Hooray for Surprises bundle is unique because it gives you several different ways to hide a sentiment (or gift card etc.) behind a tear off panel. It has some great sentiments and images for birthdays and other occasions. It’s in my “keep forever” pile for the PULL and OPEN HERE stamps alone! If you […]

I have been having the MOST fun with the MOST Adored Designer Series Paper. It goes with so many of the stamps and dies from Stampin’ Up! I love that one side is gold patterns and one side is bright heartfelt designs. And the best part – it’s FREE during Sale-a-bration. The paper was designed […]

Valentine’s Day Crafting Trends

Posted: Wednesday, January 10th, 2024 @ 10:25 am in Projects | No Comments »

One trend, which makes complete sense, is stamps and papers featuring mailboxes and postage. Valentine’s Day is popular (at least in the US) for sending and receiving cards, often by mail. Even the kids make mailboxes out of shoe boxes for school! Here are some of my favorite products by Stampin’ Up! featuring this trend. […]

Christmas is past, but there are still some opportunities for card sending, such as Christmas thank yous, winter birthdays and Happy New Year. I had fun one day at my Facebook Lunchtime Live showing off the Light the Sky bundle. Not only for New Year’s, this set is wonderful for any celebration. I used Daffodil […]

It’s less than a week until Christmas – what can I make with supplies I have on hand? I had a few scraps left from my favorite Walk in the Forest Designer paper (retiring). I cut squares ranging from 3″ to 1″, crumpled then uncrumpled and added them to a ticket stabber. If you don’t […]
