First Idea For Lights Aglow

June 25, 2022 2 Comments

I’m sure I’m not alone in finding that when I buy a pack of patterned paper there’s designs I can’t see myself using. It’s not that they’re awful, but rather just not my style, or don’t inspire me. Well I have to say I’ve finally found a pack where I love every single one of the patterns. So much so that I’m already thinking I need to order more. It’s called Lights Aglow Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP) and the 24 different patterns are all stunning, even when chopped up! LIGHTS AGLOW ... VIEW POST

Sentimental Parting

June 9, 2022 Leave a Comment

Even though we’re only just into the second week of the Last Chance promotion with Stampin’ Up! some things have already sold out. As an Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator I’m able to see the changing stock levels, and many more retiring products are showing as “low inventory”. One of the stamp sets that’s almost gone is Sentimental Swirls. I especially like this set for the decorative swirls which gives the stamp set its name. So today I couldn’t resist making one final project using heat ... VIEW POST

Give It A Whirl Re-imagined

June 3, 2022 Leave a Comment

With lots of us feeling the pinch financially it’s really important to make sure you get value for money. When it comes to craft supplies I know that will happen when I buy Stampin’ Up! products. I’ve given up trying to save a few bucks by buying elsewhere, just to get substandard tools and materials. However to get the most from what I do buy I try to look at things differently. That’s how I ended up with this cute baby gift tag using the Give It A Whirl Dies. CLOUDY SKY My project ... VIEW POST

Sailing Off Into The Sunset

March 30, 2022 Leave a Comment

Oh my goodness what a morning I’ve had! I mentioned yesterday that lots of the products being retired by Stampin’ Up! are selling out, and it’s playing havoc with my blog plans. I don’t think I’ve ever seen stamp sets sell out the way they have been, despite the fact they they’re generally not discounted. However, at the time of writing, the Sailing Home Stamp Set, Smooth Sailing Dies and the three other retiring products used on today’s project are still available. But for how much longer is ...

"Cheers from our home to yours" bottle tag created using the Tidings & Trimmings Stamp Set and Christmas Trimmings Dies from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Cheers With Tidings And Trimmings

October 22, 2021 Leave a Comment

Once again my planned project didn't quite turn out as I'd originally planned. This morning I sat down intending to make a Christmas-themed bottle tag. It was inspired by the "Cheers from our home to yours" sentiment from the Tidings & Trimmings Stamp Set. However despite pulling out card in traditional Christmas red and green, things took an entirely different direction. Sometimes that's just how it goes... BOTTLE TAG BASICS My bottle tag started very simply with a 2-3/4" x ... VIEW POST

Create A Blessings Jar For Thanksgiving

September 1, 2021 Leave a Comment

As Thanksgiving approaches (it's on October 11 here in Canada) thoughts turn to everything I'm grateful for. No matter what stresses I have, I can always find at least one reason to be thankful. So it seemed the perfect time to write them down on slips of paper. That way when I'm having a tough day I can look back at them to restore my perspective on life. With that in mind this morning I sat down and created this blessings jar. BELLY BAND The jar itself is just a standard 8oz ... VIEW POST
