I attended the “Creativate Winter 2021” online stamp retreat last weekend with a few of my favorite Stampin’ Up! demonstrators. This is their third one, and my second participation. It’s held all day Saturday on Facebook live which makes for a long, but very creative day! I come away with so many creative ideas and techniques […]
Stampin' Up! designer papers
Aged to perfection
I love the “Approaching Perfection” stamp set with it’s fun birthday greetings. It was one of the first items I got from this year’s Sale-aBration catalog. You can earn it free with any $50 purchase!

FMS469-Approaching Perfection for a birthday
I love the new Approaching Perfection stamp set from Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-Bration! I’ve used it on a number of cards already, and I’m sure it will be one of my most used stamp sets for a while! I waited for this week’s FMS469 so I could create another birthday card with this stamp set! Another […]
Oh So Ombre, perfect for a sympathy card
I talked to our old mail carrier the other day only to find that her disabled brother, who she was taking care of, had died. I expressed my condolences but wanted to make a card for her when she stops by to pick up old, used magazines that we always pass on to her. I […]

We’ve missed seeing them recently and this week we learned why. One of them died from cancer over […]

Fall card redos – another class card remake
As I was explaining last week (see post here), I’m trying to finish projects “from by-gone days!” I took leftover card kit pieces from several fall card kits I had to create these cards using the Freshly Made Sketch templates as inspiration. As I’ve said many times, if you need inspiration, go see FMS or any […]
