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

Try A Simpler Way To Wrap A Gift

November 29, 2020 Leave a Comment

Do you give little token gifts to people who help you, or add them to children's stockings? It occurred to me that even though they might be small and inexpensive there's no reason why these gifts can't be dressed up. So today's simple Sunday project is more of an idea for a pinched end wrap. I thought I'd better show you while I still had this yummy After Eight chocolate bar. SIMPLE WRAP I began by measuring the length of the chocolate bar (about 4-1/2"). Then I cut a 6" strip from ... VIEW POST

Thinking About Seasonal Paper

November 20, 2020 2 Comments

One of the hazards of buying patterned paper in packs is thinking of the pack as a whole. For instance a pack of Christmas-themed paper gets overlooked when making a non-Christmas project. I always try to see past the obvious and make a mental note of designs that could work at other times. Take the Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper (DSP). Snowflakes are seasonal, not just for Christmas, so today I used one of the sheets to make a thinking of you card. CALMING SNOWFLAKES The ... VIEW POST

Create A Rosette Ornament From Pretty Paper

November 13, 2020 Leave a Comment

Our winter to summer to winter roller-coaster continues here in Nova Scotia. Right now it's just a little above freezing, a far cry from the 20 degrees C of a couple of days ago. So is it any wonder that I was thinking 'Christmas' this morning. Today I have a 'two-for-one' type project. Is it a rosette ornament or is it a gift tag? Perhaps it's both... ROSETTE IN EASY STEPS I love making these rosette decorations using strips of Designer Series Paper (DSP). This one is about 3-1/4" ... VIEW POST

Snowflake Wishes For A Winter Frame

November 5, 2020 Leave a Comment

Today's project was another one that kind of just 'happened'. I sat down knowing I didn't want to make a card, but wasn't sure what to make instead. In the end it was a sentiment in the Snowflake Wishes Stamp Set that inspired me. SNOWFLAKE BACKGROUND With the sentiment in my head I began by looking for a background for my project. It made total sense to start with the Snowflake Splendor 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack. There are so many lovely designs but in the end I ... VIEW POST

Candy Canes And Snowflakes

November 1, 2020 Leave a Comment

So what happened was... the clocks went back which meant there was an extra hour in bed. Except I obviously needed more. Much more. So after I'd finally got up and showered I sat down to create a quick candy cane holder for today's simple Sunday project. CANDY CANE HOLDER This hanging candy cane holder really is quick and easy to make. I began with a 2" x 10-1/4" strip of paper from the Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack. This would be perfect for my 1/2" x 4" candy ... VIEW POST
