Create this cute bookmark using the Elephant Parade Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Elephant Fever

May 30, 2022 Leave a Comment

OK I admit it, I definitely have elephant fever. Although who can blame me when the Elephant Parade Stamp Set is so cute? There are three different elephant images in the set and today I’m using the sitting elephant once again. There’s something really appealing about this little guy, but I promise to get the last one inky very soon. This project was actually another one of my ‘experiments’. It wasn’t quite what I wanted for the card I was working on, however it was simply too good to throw ... VIEW POST

Create this sea themed card with "you are turtle-y loved" sentiment using the Whale Done and Turtle Friends Stamp Sets from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Whale Done Turtle Friends

March 19, 2022 Leave a Comment

A few weeks ago I designed a gift tag using two different stamp sets that were made for each other, Seas the Day and Whale Done. At the end of the post I mentioned there was another stamp set that went perfectly with Whale Done. I promised to bring you a project showing what I meant, and today’s the day. I can’t believe I never noticed the link between Turtle Friends and Whale Done before, but here it is. Maybe I should look more closely at my other stamp sets... LOOK WHAT I FOUND! When ...

Celebrating You For An Anniversary

March 15, 2022 Leave a Comment

Every card maker needs a good set of basic sentiments.  Over the years I’ve collected a lot of them.  Mostly they’ve come as part of a set with images, but not all.  My current favourite sentiment-only stamp set is Celebrating You.  This set of 16 sentiments covers most celebrations, and the fonts used are simply gorgeous.  They’re crisp and clear and neat (I'm not keen on many of the ‘looser’ script styles).  Today I decided it was time to make an anniversary card, and Celebrating You was there ...

Oceanfront With Ukraine On My Mind

February 25, 2022 2 Comments

It’s hard to believe the events unfolding in Eastern Europe right now, and tough to think how this might play out.  Let’s hope that diplomacy wins over aggression.  Everywhere you look there’s blue and yellow, the colours of the Ukrainian flag, and that was certainly on my mind when I sat down to create today’s project.  It had to be a ‘thinking of you’ kind of card, and blue and yellow inspired a peaceful scene.  So with the Oceanfront and Celebrating You Stamp Sets at hand, ...

Peony Bloom Held A Surprise

February 23, 2022 Leave a Comment

Yesterday Stampin’ Up! confirmed the timeline for the transition from the current Annual Catalogue to the new one.  We already knew that the current catalogue ends on May 2nd, but now we also know the Retiring List will be revealed on March 23rd.  That’s four weeks from today!  The 2020-2022 In Colors are definitely going, along with most (if not all the patterned paper).  Various stamp sets, dies, punches and embellishments will go too but they’re harder to predict.  ...

Pets Project By Special Request

February 8, 2022 Leave a Comment

Do you have pets?  I’m decidedly a ‘cat person’.  I just love that they won’t put up with stuff the way dogs seem to do.  A while ago a friend who was definitely a 'dog person' was convinced by her daughter to get a cat.  Since its arrival this cute little kitten has won hearts and minds.  So much so that the youngest daughter asked if I could make her a bookmark with a cat.  So yesterday I pulled out the Pampered Pets Stamp Set and happily got to work. PET ... VIEW POST
