After yesterday's marathon blog post I promised you something much shorter today. So this morning I designed a simple thank you card using more of the Garden Lane Designer Series Paper (DSP). FROM THE TOP I began this project with some Very Vanilla Card and a Mossy Meadow ink pad. Then found this pretty thank you sentiment in the new Bloom & Grow Stamp Set. Once I'd stamped the sentiment I mounted the layer on some Mossy Meadow Card using Multipurpose Liquid Glue ... VIEW POST
Perennial Essence Suite
I've said it before and I'll say it again, the artists at Stampin' Up! are simply amazing. Today I want to give you a sneak peek of the Perennial Essence Suite, and particularly the Designer Series Paper (DSP). But first, here's my very simple Sunday project. SIMPLE START This card really couldn't be simpler. I started with a large card base from the Memories & More Cards & Envelopes. This card is cut and pre-scored and just needs to be folded. I sharpened the crease with a ... VIEW POST
Take A Stroll Down Garden Lane
When I first started papercrafting I didn't use a whole lot of patterned paper. However over the past several years I've begin to use it more and more. Of course Stampin' Up!'s stunning Designer Series Paper (DSP) has been a big factor in that. The quality of the paper (almost lightweight card) and the amazing patterns and images created by the Stampin' Up! designers make it a great option. The other thing I love is that the colours used in the designs are listed on the packaging and in the ... VIEW POST
Heirloom Script And Vintage Lace
When I lived in the UK I spent a lot of time researching my family history. I loved following the clues in historical records to find out things that gave a window into my family's past. Spending time looking at census and other documents meant I came to appreciate different types of handwriting. So it was probably unsurprising that I fell in love with the new Woven Heirlooms Stamp Set. I knew it would be perfect for a Simple Sunday card. SIMPLE BACKGROUND But before I got to the ...

Gray Granite Thoughts
One of the things I love about Stampin' Up! is their colours, and the fact that the ink, card and everything coordinates. I've found that when I see something that catches my eye I often think of it in 'Stampin' Up! colours'. The funny thing is I know I am most definitely not alone in this. One of the new colours introduced during last year's colour revamp was Gray Granite. This is an odd one for me as it seems to be a cross between grey and brown. I have to say I love the colour and it was ... VIEW POST
Away You Go, All Things Thanks
After yesterday's epic blog post I've something much shorter today. It's a simple thank you card created using the retiring All Things Thanks Stamp Set. HANDMADE BACKGROUND This project actually started a couple of weeks ago while I was playing with my Stampin' Spritzers. I had three altogether, each one containing 70% alcohol and 10 drops of reinker. The three colours I chose were Coastal Cabana, Balmy Blue and Night of Navy. I then took a piece of Very Vanilla Card and simply ... VIEW POST
