"May your days be merry & bright" Christmas card created using the Winter Snow Embossing Folder, Toile Christmas Stamp Set and Christmas Cardinal Dies from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Embossing A Card Base For A Change

November 24, 2020 Leave a Comment

Today's card is a very different looking Christmas card. I had fully intended to use at least some patterned paper but in the end the embossing folder won. The finished look is quite striking, even though my photos really don't do it justice. MERRY & BRIGHT It all started when I chose the "May your days be merry & bright" sentiment from the Toile Christmas Stamp Set. I thought it would look nice embossed in white on Night of Navy Card so that's what I did. First I stamped ... VIEW POST

Don’t Overlook Christmas Layers

September 3, 2020 Leave a Comment

With all the lovely products available in the Stampin' Up! August to December Mini Catalogue it's easy to overlook older products. So yesterday when I came across the Christmas Layers Dies I put them on my desk to remind me to use them. Little did I know that would be just the start. By the time I'd finished, I'd used two stamp sets and two sets of dies from the Annual Catalogue. CHRISTMAS LAYERS As I said, this project all started with the Christmas Layers Dies. From the three larger ... VIEW POST

Getting Started With A Decoration

November 23, 2019 Leave a Comment

Last night I went to bed late with no idea what I was going to make for today's blog project. By the time I awoke this morning an idea for a pretty rosette decoration had magically popped into my head. A DECORATION FROM SCRAPS I began with a scrap of the Let It Snow Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP) that was 1-1/2" x 11-3/4". Using my Simply Scored Scoring Tool I carefully scored the DSP at 1/2" and then every 1/2" after that to the end. Then I flipped the paper over and scored it ... VIEW POST

Toile Christmas Sneak Peek

August 28, 2019 4 Comments

Yesterday's Christmas decor piece was quite minimalist but still you seemed to like it. Today I have a card idea for you using the new Toile Christmas Stamp Set. As soon as I saw the bird and branch images I knew this set would be winging its way into my studio. On the day it arrived I inked it up to create this striking cardinal card. CARDINAL COLOURS I started this project with the Toile Christmas Stamp Set and the large branch image. Using Mossy Meadow ink I first stamped it ... VIEW POST

Today's Simple Sunday project uses a few new items but I want you to concentrate on just one. Today is all about the Feels Like Frost 6" x 6" Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack.
