Sounds like an unlikely combination to me. When I think of pink pirouette, I think little girl’s pink tutus and dance costumes, not wild animal prints. At least that’s what I thought when I was thumbing through all the Go Wild DSP patterns to see what colors to pair them with for what type of card. You know I love […]
Stampin' Up! designer papers
Hello You to another great year
One of the patterns in the Another Great Year kit was a Smokey Slate “heather” look, very plain and subtle. I tried to use this pattern with many different combinations of other Stampin’ Up! DSP and cardstock, but I couldn’t come up with a solution that I liked. So off to Pinterest (isn’t a great place […]
Spring flowers a bloom
I wanted to create some spring flower cards and decided to continue using my June 2016 Banner Surprise Paper Pumpkin kit. As I said on Friday, I love the neutral striped card base. This first card uses the FMS270, which I loved, set see my previous card here. I thought it would work perfectly with my […]
Sunshine Wishes with Love – Valentine or Birthday card?
Here’s my card for this week’s MOJO481. I laid this card out with different papers, different sizes and finally had to walk away for a day because it just wasn’t working the way I envisioned it. Then yesterday, it all came together like I wanted and this is my final card! Is it a Valentine’s Day […]
Sealed with a Kiss for FMS271
I decided it was time to switch over to create a few Valentine’s Day cards before I continue on with birthday cards. The FMS271 sketch was perfect this Valentines Day card using the Falling in Love DSP. I looked through the papers and decided to use the hearts. I laid out my card, but somehow it just […]
Festive Balloon Adventures for MOJO479
Finally, my box of new Stampin’ Up! goodies arrived this week. I was late in ordering since December was a family month with little time to do anything else. No crafting, no creating new projects, no orders for the new stamps, papers and accessories (I did have severe withdrawals-LOL, but family is more important!). So this week I’ve […]
My Jolly Friends thank you
As we draw near to the Christmas holidays, I always need thank you cards for the gifts we receive from family and friends. I tried out several different ideas, but finally decided on the Jolly Friends stamp set to make a fun holiday thank you card. I started out with Crumb Cake Note cards and envelope set because […]

They say it’s your birthday? It’s a guy thing
I made this card several weeks ago using the SGGW FB October 1 weekend template, but I forgot to post it. So I’m posting this masculine birthday card today (I always need more “guy” cards). The card base is Crushed Curry and the patterned paper is from Stampin’ Up! retired Sweater Weather DSP. I’m so happy because I getting a lot of masculine […]
