It’s the most wonderful time of the year…for creativity! Oh the fun, oh the surprise, oh so many cool things in the new Holiday Catalog! I’m so glad that as a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator I got to order the new things early and play with them. Many of my projects over the last couple of weeks used […]
Popcorn Box, oh the possibilities!
When I first saw the popcorn box I put it on my wishlist, but after seeing this Stampin’ Up! video, I was sold and ordered it immediately! [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tc0IY2IEXpM&w=560&h=315] The popcorn box is really cute and the perfect size at 3-1/2″ tall to add cello bags filled with treats or surprises. But with just a few tweaks, it […]
Trick or Treat, shadowy trees..oh my…SGGWWC card
This past weekend’s SGGW-WC template just had to be a Halloween card for me. I used last year’s Happy Haunting DSP (I love that one!) to create the base of my card, Then using the new Halloween Scenes edgelit dies (available September 1 in the new Holiday catalog) for the tree. I used the matching […]
FMS251-another card for some Spooky Fun
This is my second FMS251 card from the weekend. This one is a Halloween one using the new Cookie Cutter Halloween stamp set (available starting September 1 in the new Holiday catalog!). I love these guys! This is my second card using this stamp set, my first one was the mummy (see it here if […]
FMS251 – Badges and Banners, a great stamp set
This week’s FMS251 was a great template for a number of card ideas I’ve been contemplating. So I ended up with 2 entries this week. First up, this one using the new Badges & Banners stamp set with the matching Best Badge punch (it comes in a bundle so you save 10%). I started out […]
Beautiful Branches flower – pretty as a picture
Yesterday I shared my 2nd SGGW-WC card. It was my first fall card of the season, but if you remember I was having a difficult time making the DSP I selected fit the card? But when I flipped the paper, the other side was perfect. But I couldn’t let that beautiful yellow petals side go to waste. Since […]
Swirly Scribbles fall card just for you
Yesterday’s card (see here) was a bright birthday card using the SGGW-WC 8-19-16 template. And I promised to share another card using this template. I wanted to do a fall card before I jumped into my Halloween ideas and this template seemed like the perfect one to do just that. I have lots of retired DSP […]
Marquee Messages for your birthday
I was up bright and early last Friday morning which is very unusual for me on my days off! But I spent Thursday dealing with possible medical issues with my dad and I was ready for Connie Stewart’s SGGW weekend template challenge as a diversion of creativity. This past weekend’s template was a little more challenging […]
