Retirement gift tag created using Senior Years Stamp Set and Color Velveteen Paper from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

Velveteen Paper May Be Retired

March 18, 2021 Leave a Comment

It's less than a week before Stampin' Up! announces which products will be retiring from the 2020/2021 Annual Catalogue. I try not to get to hung up about it as it means there's new products coming. Still, I have a few personal predictions and today's project features one of those, Color Velveteen Paper. The Color Velveteen Paper has a beautifully soft textured surface and it cuts just like ordinary card. I love it, but I haven't seen a whole lot of projects using it so that's why I suspect ...

Special Someone For Some Heal-ium

March 15, 2021 2 Comments

Today's project is another from my 2020 World Cardmaking Day personal challenge that I haven't yet shown you. This get well card has a very simple layout with a punny sentiment from the Special Someone Stamp Set. To add interest I used the coordinating Special Day Dies and also the Balloon Bouquet Punch. SUBTLE LAYERS This project was really all about the two-part sentiment, so I decided to keep the rest of card quite subtle. I began by using my Paper Trimmer to cut and score a ... VIEW POST

All Wired Up For Another Gift Tag

November 21, 2020 Leave a Comment

Today's project started with just one thought in my mind, use the All Wired Up Stamp Set. This is a simple background stamp but one that is so delicate that adds an elegant touch to any project. ALL WIRED UP GOLDEN To begin I cut a 2" x 4-1/4" strip of Thick Very Vanilla Card. Then I shaped the top using the Delightful Tag Topper Punch to create the tag base. Next using the Stamparatus to help me, I stamped the All Wired Up image onto the tag with VersaMark ink. Then I sprinkled ... VIEW POST

More Holly Table Decor Using Poinsettia Dies

November 19, 2020 Leave a Comment

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 ...

Velveteen Paper Is Gorgeous

October 10, 2020 Leave a Comment

My plan for today's project was simple, make a masculine / gender neutral birthday gift tag. I also wanted to include the new Color Velveteen Paper in the design and have some die cut pieces too. As it turned out I ended up using three different die sets but the final result was definitely worth it. VELVETEEN PAPER It all started with the pack of Color Velveteen Paper. There are three colours in the pack, Soft Sea Foam, Highland Heather and the one I chose today, Cinnamon Cider. This ... VIEW POST
