"Thinking of you" card created using the Hydrangea Haven Stamp Set and Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up! #simplestamping #papercraftwithme

Stamping Over Designer Series Paper

April 16, 2021 Leave a Comment

For the past seven years I've been a volunteer writer for the Stampin' Up! Canadian Demonstrator e-magazine called Inspiration Canada. This monthly magazine is sent to every Canadian Demonstrator and contains a mixture of inspiration and information. This month we celebrate our 100th edition and I worked out I've contributed over 80 articles since I joined the team. Recently I've been focusing on #simplestamping with ideas that encourage new stampers and cardmakers to have a go. Using just ... VIEW POST

Simple treat packaging created using the Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Create A Sweet And Simple Treat Package

January 27, 2021 Leave a Comment

Today's project is so simple I'm surprised I haven't tried it before. While I was out shopping yesterday I treated myself to some York Peppermint Patties. I admit I may be slightly addicted to these sweet treats, so before they all disappear I decided to make a quick treat package to hold two of them. SIMPLE WRAP I began by stacking two of the patties so I could get an idea of the size of paper I'd need to wrap them. After a little trial and error I cut a 2-1/2" x 5-1/2" strip of ... VIEW POST

2021 easel calendar / Post-It Note pad created using the Flowers For Every Season Paper from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

A New Year Means A New Calendar

January 1, 2021 2 Comments

Happy new year! How's it been for you so far? Us? Well we woke up to minus 4C and a heating system that wasn't working. Fortunately it was only the AA batteries that needed replacing in the programmer and we were able to get it up and running again. It did remind us however to buy a replacement for the other more specialised battery in case that one goes in the future. So before I forgot I wrote myself a note using my new 2021 easel calendar. This is the third or fourth year I've made ... VIEW POST

Simple "thanks" card created using the Many Mates Stamp Set and Label Me Fancy Punch from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Many Mates For A Simple Thanks

December 20, 2020 Leave a Comment

With Christmas almost here it's time to start thinking of saying thanks. Whether its for gifts received or simply to acknowledge someone who helps you, thanks are always appreciated. So today's simple Sunday project is a really simple card layout including a few retiring products. SIMPLE LAYERS My project began with a simple card base. First, using my Paper Trimmer I cut and scored some retiring thick Whisper White Card. Then I folded it along the scored line and sharpened the crease ... VIEW POST

"Always & Forever" gift tag created using the Good Morning Magnolia and Forever Blossoms Stamp Sets with Blending Brushes from Stampin' Up!

Blending Something Old With Something New

December 15, 2020 Leave a Comment

With Christmas just ten days away hopefully most people are nearly done with their seasonal crafting and looking ahead. So today I decided to create a Valentine or wedding gift tag. My original plan was to continue to showcase products that are retiring and now only available while stocks last. But somewhere along the way a couple of new products crept into my hands. So today you get to see a new ribbon and a new ink blending tool that will be available from January 5th. FANCY TAG ... VIEW POST

All occasion gift tag with "a little something for you" sentiment, created using the Wrapped In Christmas Stamp Set, Wrapped In Texture Embossing Folder and Forever Flourishing Dies from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Creating A Gift Tag With Texture

October 22, 2020 Leave a Comment

Yesterday afternoon I was in a gift tag kind of mood. I often sit and make a batch of gift tags as a way to develop ideas. I might have a stamp set that lends itself to tag sentiments, or small scraps of card or paper to use up. Or sometimes it's a punch, die or embossing folder that inspires me. This tag was a combination of all three, and I love how it turned out. A LITTLE SOMETHING This tag started with my favourite stamp set, Wrapped In Christmas. The "a little something for ...
