Way back in early October I set myself a challenge to mark World Card Making Day. I would try to design and make from scratch 24 cards and coordinating envelopes in 24 hours. It was a tough challenge as always but one I really enjoy. If you followed my Facebook page at the time you'd have seen quick photos of each card as I made them. But it occurred to me that I haven't yet posted them all on my blog. So today I wanted to show you this masculine birthday card created using the Seabed 3D ... VIEW POST
Whisper White Retirement Surprise
A couple of days ago Stampin' Up! Demonstrators were surprised by the sudden announcement that Whisper White Card and associated products were retiring. Sadly the paper mill that made Whisper White has become a victim of the COVID pandemic and has permanently closed. Since being notified, Stampin' Up! has been working to source alternative products and these will start to appear in the near future. There are some slight differences between the retiring Whisper White and the new Basic White ... VIEW POST
All Wired Up For Another Gift Tag
Today's project started with just one thought in my mind, use the All Wired Up Stamp Set. This is a simple background stamp but one that is so delicate that adds an elegant touch to any project. ALL WIRED UP GOLDEN To begin I cut a 2" x 4-1/4" strip of Thick Very Vanilla Card. Then I shaped the top using the Delightful Tag Topper Punch to create the tag base. Next using the Stamparatus to help me, I stamped the All Wired Up image onto the tag with VersaMark ink. Then I sprinkled ... VIEW POST
Candy Canes And Snowflakes
So what happened was... the clocks went back which meant there was an extra hour in bed. Except I obviously needed more. Much more. So after I'd finally got up and showered I sat down to create a quick candy cane holder for today's simple Sunday project. CANDY CANE HOLDER This hanging candy cane holder really is quick and easy to make. I began with a 2" x 10-1/4" strip of paper from the Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack. This would be perfect for my 1/2" x 4" candy ... VIEW POST
Too Early For Cinnamon Cider?
I love a new Stampin' Up! catalogue, especially a new Annual Catalogue. This is the time we get a new set of In Colors - five new colours that will be with us for just two years. They are designed to complement each other and the other 45 colours in the Stampin' Up! range. For today's project I simply couldn't resist including Cinnamon Cider. It's a lovely lighter brown with warm orange tones. I love it already and have lots of ideas for future projects. For this project I've combined this ... VIEW POST
Throwback Thursday & The Retiring List
Yesterday Stampin' Up! revealed the list of products that will be retiring on June 2nd. Actually there are two lists, one for the 2019/2020 Annual Catalogue and Beginners Brochure, and a separate list for the January to June Mini Catalogue. I always receive these lists with mixed feelings. I'm sad to see lovely products go, but at the same time I'm excited for all the new products I know will be taking their place. Over the coming weeks I plan to revisit some older projects created ... VIEW POST
