Saying Goodbye To Beautiful Autumn

December 11, 2020 Leave a Comment

As expected, yesterday's dusting of snow quickly melted and we're back to that odd 'between season' kind of weather. The autumn leaves are all gone, but still there's a little warmth that makes being outside quite pleasant at times. Sadly it won't be long before the colder weather returns and settles in. So today with that in mind I'm saying goodbye to the Beautiful Autumn Stamp Set by decorating a 3" x 3" Post-It Note® pad. GILDED AUTUMN I began my project by choosing this gorgeous ... VIEW POST

Z-fold Simplicity With Luxurious Gold

October 9, 2020 Leave a Comment

Last month I made my first Z-fold card in a very long time. It's such an easy way to add interest to a card I have no idea why I don't do it more often. So when I was working on my 24 cards in 24 hours challenge I decided to make my last card a z-fold one. Z-FOLD BASE I began this project by creating a basic A2 card base (5-1/2" x 8-1/2", scored on the long side at 4-1/4"). Then I flipped the card over and with the other long edge at the top scored it at 2-1/8". Then it was simply a ... VIEW POST

Happy Day? Let’s Wait And See

September 23, 2020 Leave a Comment

If you're seeing this blog post then it means I managed to finish before Hurricane Teddy hit. I made this "Happy Anniversary" card ahead of time so you'd have a blog post to read whatever happened here. So now you can enjoy this, and today's stamp sale, while I work on tomorrow's project and blog post. Just in case... GORGEOUS PAPER As I began my project, once again I was drawn to the Gilded Autumn 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack. This time I chose the less 'autumnal' ... VIEW POST

No Pumpkin Stamps No Problem

September 16, 2020 Leave a Comment

Life has been pretty hectic lately but with so many 'holidays' crammed into the last few months of the year that's not unexpected. I does remind me though that sometimes while you might want something hand-crafted, it has to be quick and easy. When I realised I don't have any pumpkin stamps that could have been an issue for my Thanksgiving preparations. But being the creative type I thought outside the stamp set and found some lovely pumpkins in the Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper (DSP) ... VIEW POST

Vehicle expenses notebook created using the Coming Home Stamp Set and Coordinating Home Together Dies from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Home to work and back again

September 2, 2020 Leave a Comment

Every year I make myself a notebook to record my car expenses. I know you can buy pre-printed books for this purpose but they're so cramped I gave up on them several years ago. Since then Stampin' Up! has always obliged me by releasing just the right images and/or sentiments. This year it was the Coming Home Stamp Set that provided the inspiration for my 2021 vehicle notebook. COMING HOME Having decided to use images from the Coming Home Stamp Set I started with those. Using Tuxedo ... VIEW POST

Another Card Using Small Scraps

August 30, 2020 Leave a Comment

Sometimes less is more when it comes to a card design. That's especially true when I find a few small pieces of specialty card or Designer Series Paper (DSP). It's also an economical way to make a stack of cards when I need them. However that doesn't mean I can't add a little touch of luxury to make my simple Sunday project a bit more special. CARD AND PAPER PIECES I began my project with the thank you sentiment from the Beautiful Autumn Stamp Set. For this I cut a piece of Thick ... VIEW POST
