Cutting Dies At Up To 75% Off!

April 13, 2021 Leave a Comment

Once again I've been surprised by the Retiring List, but this time in a good way. This morning I received notification that Stampin' Up! have updated the Clearance Rack. This is where you'll find products that retired a while ago and are now discounted for final clearance. With this refresh there's a whole bunch of autumn and Christmas themed products, including Designer Series Paper that I know people have been looking for. What's more some of these coordinate with dies and stamp sets that ... VIEW POST

Tempting You With Terracotta Tile

January 15, 2021 Leave a Comment

A few days ago I mentioned that all 2019-2021 In Color products will be retiring on May 3rd. On that occasion I created a dog gift tag showcasing my favourite of these five retiring colours, Seaside Spray. So continuing on, today I made a project with Terracotta Tile taking centre stage. BLOOM & GROW My project began when I chose the longest floral image from the Bloom & Grow Stamp Set and stamped it onto Whisper White Card with Pear Pizzazz ink. Then I simply coloured in the ...

Wonderful Large Sentiments In Bloom & Grow

December 12, 2020 Leave a Comment

Today I'm continuing with my Retiring List highlights with a little paper and ribbon. But at the same time I also wanted to remind you of some of the wonderful things that will still be available. So my project today combines the two with a little #simplestamping. PAPER AND RIBBON My simple card actually began with the desire to use the gorgeous Mint Macaron 1/2" basket weave ribbon that is now retiring. First though I had to create the card base and add the background. So using my ... VIEW POST

Brightly Gleaming Is Simply Stunning

October 11, 2020 2 Comments

For today's simple Sunday project I have another card that I made as part of my 24 cards in 24 hours challenge. While this is really simple to make, it's also stunning. With rich colours and copper foil accents the Brightly Gleaming Designer Series Paper (DSP) does all the work for me. BRIGHTLY GLEAMING This project is pretty much all about he Brightly Gleaming DSP. Although the paper is a Christmas pack, there are a number of designs that work for any occasion. I chose one with a ... VIEW POST

Rediscovering the Bloom & Grow Stamp Set

March 7, 2020 Leave a Comment

As we start to think ahead to the Stampin' Up! 2020/2021 Annual Catalogue, I begin to wonder what will be retired. Looking through the current catalogue I come across products that I've got but haven't used in quite a while and it inspires me to show them some love. Today I pulled out the Bloom & Grow Stamp Set to make a pretty thank you gift tag. SHAPED TAG BASE I began by using my Paper Trimmer to cut a 3" x 6" piece of Whisper White Card. Then with the long side at the top I ... VIEW POST

Learn To Make A Simple Box

October 24, 2019 4 Comments

Yesterday my friend Carol reminded me that was only 63 days to Christmas. That's three months, but as crafters you and I know that time will simply fly by. So to get us all prepared I thought I should do a weekly series on gift packaging. Today I have a simple box. It's essentially an open tray, and if you want a lid you make another slightly larger tray. The trick is to get the two trays to fit well. MAKING THE SIMPLE BOX Some time ago I made a video explaining how to make this ... VIEW POST
