See-through snowman card created using Seasonal Chums Stamp Set and Snowfall Thinlits Dies from Stampin' Up!

Seasonal Chums WWYS192

October 29, 2018 6 Comments

This week the What Will You Stamp? challenge is WWYS192 Seasonal Chums.  This is such a cute stamp set with a snowman, pumpkin and deer plus 5 sentiments.  The images feature a back and front view and are designed to be used as folded gift tags, and this is made really easy with the coordinating Seasonal Tags Framelits Dies.   Simply stamp once, cut once, then fold. Of course as part of the What Will You Stamp? Design Team I wanted to create something other than a tag.  So I designed a card ... VIEW POST

Merry Christmas Pop-Up Card

October 24, 2018 2 Comments

Yesterday I had a fun couple of hours in my craft studio with a very special guest, my granddaughter Alyssa.  She'll be 8 next month and it was such fun to watch her design and create her own pop-up Christmas card. Let me say from the outset that this card was all her idea.  She's been playing with the "pop-up" process at home and wanted to show me how to do it.  All I did was show her how to put the pop-up layer inside another card to hide the mechanism.  Then, apart from some very minor ...

Thanks Stampin’ Up!

On Sunday my daughter and granddaughter walked into our house after flying from the UK to surprise me, with the help of my hubby.  So all my plans for this week have drastically changed.  Today's blog post will be fairly short and sweet with a thanks cards and details of a special one day Stampin' Up! sale. THE CARD I began with the card base, a piece of Thick Whisper White Card cut and scored using my Stampin' Trimmer.  Then I folded it along the scored line and sharpened the crease with ... VIEW POST

Embossing Folders Lift Me Up

October 20, 2018 3 Comments

For me, the beauty of embossing folders lies not only in the amazing designs that I can emboss.  Just recently I've come to realise that embossing folders can serve another purpose.  They can save a project from disaster, and when I was making today's project, one did just that. LIFT ME UP I began this project simply enough, with some Very Vanilla Card, a stamp set and a couple of ink pads. On one piece of card I stamped the two balloons from the Lift Me Up Stamp Set, the larger one ... VIEW POST

Cauldron Bubble WWYS90

October 15, 2018 4 Comments

This week's stamp set for the What Will You Stamp? challenge, WWYS190 Cauldron Bubble, really had me stumped.  As a member of the Design Team, I'm supposed to come up with ideas but Halloween just isn't my thing. Finally after days of nothing I had an epiphany.  In the kitchen.  While I was making apple and tomato chutney.  Why not use the cauldron for the tag on my chutney! CAULDRON BUBBLE I started with the cauldron image from the Cauldron Bubble Stamp Set, stamped onto Thick Whisper ... VIEW POST

Christmas card with sparkling poinsettia embellishment created using the Detailed Poinsettia Thinlits Dies and Stampin' Blends alcohol markers from Stampin' Up!

Sparkling Poinsettia

October 12, 2018 4 Comments

During my personal 24 cards in 24 hours challenge I tried a new (to me) technique using Stampin' Blends alcohol markers.  The idea is to give the illusion of coloured Glimmer Paper by colouring on an acetate overlay.  On my project I created a Christmas card featuring a sparkling poinsettia using the Detailed Poinsettia Thinlits Dies.  I was reasonably happy with the results considering I was working against the clock, but there are a few things I'd do differently next time. SPARKLING ... VIEW POST
