Of all the products being retired by Stampin' Up! the one I will miss the most is the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder. This has been a staple in my craft studio ever since its release and I can't imagine ever getting rid of it. Like all other retiring products it's now only available while stocks last. So I decided to use it on one final project and pair it with the Quite Curvy Stamp Set and coordinating Curvy Dies. WHITE START I began by using my Paper Trimmer to cut and score some Thick ...

Hey Chick, Let’s Go Shopping!
At long last, after providing three negative CoVID tests in the space of 2 weeks, and completing my required self-isolation period in the UK, I am free to go out. So today my daughter and I will be making a quick trip to the shops for some essentials. Of course we're bound to come back with some other things too but that's OK. I'm planning a quick browse around the book section as they are so much cheaper in the UK than Canada. I even brought a couple of bookmarks with me just in case, ... VIEW POST
Hooray For Some Quick Inspiration
I love papercrafting but sometimes I worry that I'm running out of interesting ideas. So every now and then I find it helpful to just sit down grab a whole bunch of different products and simply experiment. It was during one of these sessions that I came up with the idea for today's "Hooray for you" gift tag. Hooray indeed! BLACK AND WHITE My project began with a 3" x 6" piece of Basic Black Card, scored on the long side at 3". After folding it along the scored line I sharpened the ... VIEW POST
Forever Fern And A Bundle Reminder
Yesterday Stampin' Up! let Demonstrators know that sales of the Strawberry Builder Punch (and coordinating Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set) are exceeding expectations. As a result the punch is currently not orderable, and the next batch due shortly is not expected to last long. While it's certainly disappointing, there is some good news. Stampin' Up! also told us that the stamp set and punch will be in the new 2021/2022 Annual Catalogue. And what's more it will still be available as a discounted ... VIEW POST
Hydrangea Hill For A Special Project
Sometimes the simplest looking projects are also the most satisfying. I've been playing a lot with the Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper (DSP) recently and really enjoying it. The images and colours are restful and it's difficult not to make something pretty with it. Today all I needed was a single strip and a little imagination to create this gorgeous textured bookmark. HYDRANGEA HILL Unusually this bookmark didn't start with the base, it started with the paper. One of the ... VIEW POST
Pine Cone Paper Used At Last
I've been looking through the Stampin' Up! inventory and was pleased to see a lot of retiring products are still available. So that meant I could pull out the Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper (DSP) for today's card project. As I sorted through the various scraps of paper I had left I realised that one design in particular needed no cutting. It seems that at some point I'd planned to use the pine cone pattern for a card but never did. Today would be the day the pine cone paper finally ... VIEW POST
