Wedding Cards

I love the variety of stamp sets that Stampin' Up! had made for us to make wedding cards.  Today's share are cards I made using the Retired stamp set, Last a Lifetime and the current set, Forever Blossoms.  

I'm enjoying cleaning my craftroom as I find different pieces of cards I partially started.  Right now, I'm pulling out dies, like Stitched So Sweetly and the Tasteful Label Dies.  I love the variety of shapes in both sets.  If you would like to come play (not a class), let's schedule a date to get together!

Happy Crafting,

Summer Nights Paper Pumpkin

Yes, I am concentrating on getting my Paper Pumpkin kits caught up!  Today's share are cards I made using the July 2020 kit, Summer Nights.  I saved a variety of alternatives to my Pinterest board, Jul 2020 Summer Nights so I went there first for my inspiration. 

I added extra cardstock, and used some of the Summer Nights Add-On kit as well.  I still have lots to make with this kit, but for now, I'm taking a break, working on the craftroom.  

I hope to begin having classes before Memorial Day!

Other Mother's Day Cards

These are the other Mother's Day cards I made using the Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Papers. I used one sheet of 6 X 6 paper for all four cards.  I also used the envelops and card bases from the February 2021 Paper Pumpkin Kit, Bouquet of Hope.  For the sentiment, I used Timeless Tulips!

I'm so sad to see the Subtles embossing folder has retired.  This is one of my favorite embossing folders.  You'll definitely see me using this even though it is retired!  I also used the new Oval Duet Punch for these cards.  

Happy Crafting,

Happy Mother's Day

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Though I don't normally post on Mother's Day, I thought I'd post some of the Mother's Day cards I made for a store that purchased 1000 of my cards!  I used the February 2021 Paper Pumpkin Kit, stamped a bunch of rose bouquets and sat down and colored them with my Stampin' Up! Blends while sitting with my husband on the couch.

The sentiment is from Tea Together which retired on the 4th of May.  I love how all of these turned out -- if you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me!  Classes coming soon!

New Catalog Now Live On Line

I haven't seen most of you in quite a long time.  I wanted to drop in and let you know that the new Stampin' Up! Annual catalog is now live on line!  I've updated the image on this page, so just click on the catalog on the LEFT side and it will open the new catalog on line for you to shop.

Remember, I have your catalogs and if you want to stop in and pick them up, you're welcome to call me and schedule a pick up time.

I contacted the company that is going to allow us to meet in their conference room on Tuesday evenings; however her contractor is behind schedule.  Susan told me that the contractor is to begin this week on her new area.

In the meantime, if your schedule is open, I will be setting up classes in my home both during the day and in the evenings.  Let me know what works best for you.  Also, please drop me a line to let me know what your interests are - new card folds, meeting with friends, crafts, or just the comradery of making cards together!

I'm still working on the craftroom, however, I will probably ALWAYS be working on it.  I like to think that I'm improving it with each stamping experience as I identify what does and doesn't work!

Stay safe my friends, and Happy Crafting

HeartFelt Bundle

It's been a while since posting any cards. I'm still trying to find my craft room but thought I would showcase a retiring stamp set, Heartfelt. It comes as a bundle (two punches) and it's really going to be missed.

Here are two cards I made using this set. These are great for Valentines, Anniversary, or for a "Just Because" day!

On this first card, I let the Designer Series Paper do the work. I simply stamped words on Whisper White (still using old cardstock up!) and punched out the sentiment. I then stamped the lacy heart and punched it out with the second punch in the bundle. I popped these up on dimensionals and added to the front of the card. I then cut a piece of Real Red ribbon and attached to the front, since I already had the DSP layer down. I tied a bow and attached with a glue dot.

For the second card, I wanted to save as much of the DSP to highlight our special DSP. I stamped my words on Flirty Flamingo cardstock and punched it out with a smaller heart punch. I then punched a white scallop heart using the larger punch with this bundle. Again, I popped them up on dimensionals.

If you haven't checked this bundle out yet, here is the stamp set and punches:

Don't hesitate to ask any questions; I'm here to help!
