Cheerful Daisies is one of those stamp sets that I honestly think I’ll never get tired of. If you’ve followed my blog for a while you’ll know I love daisies. They’re uncomplicated and come in a huge range of colours. Whether it’s the little wild ones that grow in the lawn or the much larger gerberas, they always make me smile. The projects I've made so far have all been spring and summer focused, so I decided to show the year-round versatility of this set with a more autumnal feel. CHEERFUL ... VIEW POST
Gnomes Final Farewell
Just as I predicted, it seems that a lot of products from the Last Chance List sold out yesterday. Free shipping will do that. Still, we haven’t much longer to wait until the Stampin’ Up! 2023/2024 Annual Catalogue goes live. There’s so many good things coming and I plan to start my sneak peek series on Tuesday. That will be just a week from the launch. Meanwhile, I wanted to remind you about the retiring Friendly Gnomes Stamp Set and coordinating Gnomes Dies with this “gnome sweet gnome” gift ... VIEW POST
Framed Florets Encore
A couple of weeks ago I brought you what I thought would be my last project using the retiring Framed Florets Stamp Set. While making that card I stamped and coloured a Basic White layer for the inside but then changed the orientation of the card. But as I didn’t want the decoration at the side of the layer I redid it and set the other piece aside. Yesterday while tidying up I came across the discarded layer and decided to make a gift tag so it wouldn't be wasted. SIDEWAYS FLORETS At the ... VIEW POST
Eden’s Garden Exit
The list of ‘Last Chance’ products that are now sold out continues to grow. Despite this there are still some amazing deals to be had. Today’s project uses four more retiring (but still available) items including cardstock and ink in rich Merry Merlot. But my main focus was the retiring Eden’s Garden Stamp Set and coordinating Eden Dies. These are both now on sale at 60% off, but of course only while stocks last. With the addition of gold accents this gender-neutral gift tag will most ... VIEW POST
Gilded Touches
Have you seen the Gilded Leafing in the Stampin’ Up! 2022/2023 Annual Catalogue? It’s a product that’s easy to overlook, especially if you have no idea how it’s used. Even I’ve wondered why I needed it when I can simply heat emboss on my projects instead. I’ve added it to a few projects in the past but today I found the perfect use for my Gilded Leafing, adding a touch of luxury to a clear cellophane bag. Gilded Leafing has a purpose when the materials you’re using can’t be heated! GILDED ... VIEW POST
Tailor Made
One of the amazing things about papercrafting is the endless possibilities. Even though I may have used a product multiple times simple changes can make it seem fresh and new again. The masculine He’s The Man suite was new in the 2022/2023 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalogue but it seems like we’ve had it longer. The year before we were treated to the Tailor Made Tags Dies. I love these dies and have used them to tailor make other shaped pieces like the sentiment label on this Father’s Day gift ... VIEW POST
