Create this striking black gift tag using the Fond of Autumn and Christmas To Remember Stamp Sets from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Black For Christmas?

December 14, 2022 Leave a Comment

This morning’s papercraft project was inspired by a number of different ‘crafty’ posts that I’ve seen on social media over the past few days. These all caught my eye as they used black cardstock as their base. I was immediately struck by how the decoration really popped out against the black background. So having more Basic Black Card scraps around than I’d like, I decided to use some to create a Christmas gift tag. Also among my scraps I found a die-cut floral piece and it all progressed from ...

Peekaboo Family

December 13, 2022 Leave a Comment

My regular readers will know I’m a complete sucker for cute animal and people images. Somehow the Stampin’ Up! artists always seem to put great expressions on the faces which always makes me smile. That’s why I fell in love with the Peekaboo Farm Stamp Set. These kind of images work well with almost any sentiment and I’ve had lots of fun finding new combinations. One of my favourite sentiments to use with animal images is “You made a little human!” as shown in this sweet and simple baby ... VIEW POST

Moment Of Simplicity

December 11, 2022 Leave a Comment

Something I hear people say quite often is that they struggle to colour stamped images. For this reason they avoid sets where the images have large open areas obviously designed for this purpose. From personal experience I know that this gets easier the more you practice but sometimes it’s good to get back to basics. So when I was working on my personal 24 cards in 24 hours challenge I came up with a simple design that’s easy to copy, using the In The Moment Stamp Set and Stampin’ ... VIEW POST

Peaceful Snowy Morning

December 10, 2022 Leave a Comment

With a very long list of things I want to accomplish today I decided to get up early. I love getting up while it’s still dark, and try to time my first coffee break so I can watch the sun rise. Today I was in for another treat as we had a dusting of snow too. There’s something very peaceful about fresh snow on the ground, especially when there’s not so much it will have to be shovelled. It also inspired this quick robin project made for a good friend. PEACEFUL MOMENTS I began by ... VIEW POST

Punch Stock Levels

December 7, 2022 Leave a Comment

Like lots of papercrafters I seem to have a permanent ‘wish list’ on the go. Some things like adhesives, basic cardstock and envelopes reappear on a regular basis. Others like stamp sets, tools, patterned papers and embellishments can sit there for a while. Over time I’ll either buy them or change my mind. I keep an eye on stock levels at Stampin’ Up! so I can act and also warn my customers when something is showing low inventory. This is the situation with the Label Me Lovely Punch used ... VIEW POST

IDEAS Blog Hop: By My Side

December 5, 2022 6 Comments

It’s time for another IDEAS blog hop where this month our theme is “We are cut out to be friends”. For this theme we were asked to create projects that focused on cutting. Of course there are lots of different ways that cutting is used in papercrafting but mostly I concentrated on fussy cutting. I created two projects for this month’s IDEAS tutorial bundle; a card and a fridge magnet. Then I created a second card for my blog. All three projects feature the cute By My Side Stamp Set. BY HIS ... VIEW POST
