The list of products being retired by Stampin' Up! was only revealed yesterday afternoon and some things are already sold out. As predicted, the 2019-2021 InColors have been very popular and several items are now gone for good. Pretty Peacock Card is one such casualty, although there is still a slight chance you might be lucky if you are looking for this. As I write, the 8-1/2" x 11" Pretty Peacock Card is sold out, along with the 12" x 12" mixed pack of 2019-2021 InColor Card. However, ... VIEW POST
Tone-On-Tone Embossing Technique
Every now and then I'm reminded of an old technique and sometimes a stamp set prompts that memory. This was what happened when I pulled out the Butterfly Gala Stamp Set. I realised that the butterfly images would be perfect for a tone-on-tone background technique using clear embossing powder.

Newsflash, Another Free Stamp Set Used
Even though I have a large number of stamp sets I'm always on the look out for interesting sentiments.

AROUND THE WORLD With the newsflash sentiment already decided, I first had to ... VIEW POST
Seaside Spray Soon To Be Gone
I mentioned the other day that all 2019-2021 In Color products will be retiring soon. So before it's gone for good today I wanted to showcase Seaside Spray Card and metallic ribbon. All I had in my head was to make a gift tag that wasn't floral and this was the result. SEASIDE SPRAY START I began my project by pulling out some Seaside Spray Card to use for my tag base. The last few tags I've made have either been folded or created using one of Stampin' Up!'s tag topper punches, so ... VIEW POST
Texture Makes A Tag Extra Special
With a little over two weeks until Christmas it's time to get wrapping. Of course that means more gift tags. When I first started papercrafting I tended to concentrate on cards, probably just like most people. But then I discovered the pleasure of designing and making gift tags. Today's tag is quite simple in its design, but the added texture really makes it special. The Wrapped In Texture Embossing Folder, patterned paper and ribbon are all retiring, so only available while stocks ... VIEW POST
More Holly Table Decor Using Poinsettia Dies
November is over halfway through and Christmas is approaching fast and it's time to think again about table decor. A couple of weeks ago I decorated a candle, today I have a coordinating holly leaf napkin ring idea. I'm showing you this now so you'll have time to collect the key components... EAT THE TOMATO PASTE! Before you start thinking I'm combining tomato paste and card, let me explain. I've discovered that the tomato paste cans are the perfect size for napkin rings. The ones I ...
