Brilliant Wings & Hand-Penned cards
Did you know a group of butterflies is called a kaleidoscope? Yesterday, I shared a kaleidoscope of butterflies cards created with the Butterfly Brilliance Bundle. Today I’m sharing more cards I made with the Brilliant Wings dies combined with the Hand-Penned Memories & More cards and envelopes. Lately, I’m using lots of these cards, including […]
Hey Chick…chickens that is!
I’m not an animal card person so I tend to overlook some fun animal stamp sets that Stampin’ Up! has had over the years. I do love (and have) all the cat and dog ones since most everyone in my family either has cats, dogs, or both. One exception was the “Hey Chick” stamp set […]
Waiting for my March Paper Pumpkin box
I typically receive my monthly Paper Pumpkin box a good 10-14 business days after the 10th of the month…sigh.

Turning the FMS#438 template for more cards
Last Friday I posted my FMS#438 challenge card (see it here). I changed the template’s orientation and created 2 more cards so I could show how you can use a template and create many looks. Here’s the first card I posted last Friday that followed the template. For my second card I rotated the template […]

Go wild becomes sympathy card…really?
When you hear “Go Wild” I’m sure you can think of all kinds of wild cards, but you wouldn’t think tasteful sympathy card, right? Well, I’m here today to show you how that assumption would be so wrong. The wonderful thing about Stampin’ Up!’s Go Wild DSP is that one side is wild animal prints, the other side is more sedate, […]
