Create this floral birthday card using the Cheerful Daisies Stamp Set and coordinating Dies from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Autumn Daisies

September 20, 2023 Leave a Comment

Are you prepared for a change of season? I definitely feel that autumn is beginning to show its influence in my craft studio. But I’m not quite ready to give myself over to all things pumpkin and leaves. Still as I worked on today’s birthday card project using the Cheerful Daisies Stamp Set and coordinating dies, I couldn’t help but notice I was gravitating towards more muted colours. Mind you when it came to the background I still wanted a brighter sky. Hopefully I’ll see that out the window ... VIEW POST

Create this masculine birthday card using the Celebrate With Tags Stamp Set and Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Metal Plate Texture

September 14, 2023 Leave a Comment

One of the lessons I’ve learned over the years with my card designs is to mix it up. Some of my projects are really simple and require no special tools or techniques. However today’s birthday card doesn’t fall into that category. Instead I combined patterned paper, dies and embellishments. I also took a plain Very Vanilla top layer and added tons of interest using the Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder. The result is a layout that could be adapted for many different occasions, simply change out the ... VIEW POST

Curved Occasions

September 4, 2023 Leave a Comment

How are you enjoying my September to December 2023 Mini Catalogue sneak peeks so far? I must say I’m having a lot of fun playing with the new products I received in my pre-order. Today’s project is a gender-neutral birthday card using the new Curved Occasions Stamp Set and coordinating Curved Label Punch. As soon as I saw this in the catalogue I was immediately drawn to the Beetle convertible image. My friend Jeannette has one of these cars in pale blue and so that definitely influenced my ...

Create this vintage style "best wishes" gift tag using the Quiet Meadow and Layering Leaves Stamp Sets with the Tailor Made Tags Dies, all from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Quiet Saturday

August 26, 2023 Leave a Comment

I think the hectic schedule of the past month has finally caught up with me. Why else would I sleep in when I can spend the entire day crafting uninterrupted? They’re forecasting heavy rain so my plan is to spend some quiet time creating lots of new projects for my blog. For the next few days I’ll be bringing you projects using currently available products from Stampin’ Up!. Then, starting on August 30th it will be a week of sneak peeks from the amazing September to December 2023 Mini ... VIEW POST

Celebrate With Balloons

August 25, 2023 Leave a Comment

And just like that her extended vacation is over and my granddaughter has returned home. The house is quiet now and it’s time to get back into my normal routine. Fortunately the weather was good yesterday and I was able to get all the bedding and towels washed and dried. Now I need to focus on a fall craft fair I’m attending in October. First on my list is a new selection of gender neutral birthday cards. I started with this balloon-themed one using the Celebrate With Tags Stamp Set. I ... VIEW POST

We’re coming to the end of our granddaughter’s stay with us and ticking off the last few things on her bucket list. Many involved food and shopping which was fine with me, lol. We’ve also been exploring Nova Scotia’s flora and fauna. There was no big zoo trip this time but instead we enjoyed discovering creatures in the wild. Today our plan is to print off some of the photos ready for some crafty time. Meanwhile, here’s an animal-themed birthday giftcard envelope complete with a More Dazzle ... VIEW POST
