Create this cute winter bookmark using the Penguin Place Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! #simplestamping #papercraftwithme

Penguin Playtime

October 23, 2022 Leave a Comment

Lots of things to do, so I’m thankful today is Sunday and that means a simple project. I was actually a little cold when I woke up this morning and although the day will warm up, winter is on my mind. So when I sat down at my craft table the Penguin Place Stamp Set inevitably popped into my head. This is a two-step stamp set which means the various pieces can be combined to create lots of different scenes. With a little Saran Wrap technique, this was the result. PENGUIN PLACE PIECES I ...

Snowman Season Sneak Peek

August 23, 2019 2 Comments

Yesterday I brought you an autumn-themed sneak peek. Today we move on to winter with the Snowman Season Stamp Set and a pocket photo album. I love decorating these mini albums and it seems the customers in the local craft store love to buy them. So even though snowman season is (hopefully) a few months off yet, here's what I came up with this morning. WINTER SKY I began my project by removing the boring cover inserts and cutting two pieces of Whisper White Card to replace them. Then ... VIEW POST

Tiny Woven Threads

I'm still obsessed with the new Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper (DSP) and determined that this year I'll use it to the max. I hate to waste my crafting supplies and will save the smallest pieces of card and DSP 'just in case'. Today's project is another idea for using those small scraps. For this masculine card I used just pieces from the Woven Threads Designer Series Paper. CRACKED ICE TECHNIQUE I began by creating my card base using Thick Whisper White Card. Then I got to work ...

Cracked Ice Background Effect

December 18, 2018 2 Comments

I'm in a hurry to get this blog post finished as we're under a winter storm warning and the snow's picking up.  All the schools in the area are closed so they're only expecting it to get worse.  Although it's only a week away, I was reminded that Christmas is not the only celebration at this time of year.  People get married, have babies, and birthdays too.  So I thought I'd create a birthday card today with what I can only describe as a cracked ice background. CRACKED ICE BACKGROUND ... VIEW POST
