Make a Scene with Die Cuts & Fussy Cuts

 Make a scene!!!  That doesn't sound like something most of us would want to be a part of but in the cardmaking world it is a good thing.  Using products you already have and putting them together to make a wonderful picture (aka scene) is so much fun.  It could be almost like putting a puzzle together only you get to make each piece using your creativity and imagination.

I let my imagination go wild and came up with this cute layout for a fall card.  Using several different products such as Scenic Pumpkin Patch stamp set, Under the Moon stamp set, Autumn Leaves stamp set & Frosted Forest Dies.  Added some different colors of cardstock and we have a cute card that reflects the changing seasons.

Lovely & Sweet Elegant Card for any occasion

 When I think elegant, I see beautiful colors in black & white with perhaps a bit of gold or silver.  This was captured with this cute card using Nature's Sweetness DSP along with the dies Lovely & Sweet.  I paired the paper with the stamp & die set and came up with this very elegant card.  I hope you enjoy it.

Love Them Layers featuring Unbounded Beauty DSP in a Z-Fold Card

 This is a classic fold that has been around for a very long time and yet it is timeless for it's versatility.  When you load it up with layers it transforms into a work of art.

Christmas Paper can make a Birthday Card

 Many times we limit our creativity by thinking we have to use certain paper for just one kind of card.  Such as the card I made today.  I wanted to show that you can use Christmas paper and Christmas colors to showcase other occasion cards as well.  I made this one into a birthday card and yes the paper I used was from the Christmas Collection that is now available online through the "ONLINE EXCLUSIVES."  

I thought it would be fun to try this and I really love the way this turned out.  Sometimes it is so much fun to think outside of the box and let go and do something very unpredictable.  

You could certainly make this into a Christmas card by simply changing the sentiment.

I brought in a new bundle that will appear in the Mini Catalog that will be available for you to order from on September 3, 2024.  Regal Flora is a darling set of stamps, dies, specialty paper, ribbon, gems, and DSP.  Or if you only want the stamps & dies you can bundle just those items and get a 10% discount over purchasing separately.

Dear Santa

 Dear Santa....

I just love the images.  They are easy to color and so much fun.

Light The Year Christmas Card

 Awwww......Christmas Cards Galore!!  It is that time of the year even if you aren't in the mood.  Christmas is the one time of the year that we send out the most cards at one time.  And the post office tells us that they should go out by December 15th.

That give us 125 days from today (August 12, 2024) until we need to have all our cards finished and mailed.  Not to mention we all have a life outside of the craftroom, families to attend to, chores to do, errands to run....and the list goes on and on.

It sounds exhausting so why not start early.  Our new Mini Catalog with all the beautiful fall and Holiday items premiers on SEPTEMBER 3, 2024.  Be sure to check out all the new products Stampin' Up has designed for us to make our beautiful one of a kind cards.

 Wow!!  It is the most wonderful time of the year!!!  Wait, just wait a cotten-pickin' minute.  Temperature's are still in the upper 90's, the humidity is off the chart, hurricaines are raging in the sea....there's nothing wonderful about this time of the year.....BUT WAIT!!!

Christmas is coming!  Hot Cocoa, Family Gatherings, Decking the Halls and all the joy of the Christmas season is just around the corner.  Why not stay in from the oppressive heat of summer and concentrate on making up your Christmas Cards for 2024.

Golden Greenery Gatefold Tuck-away Christmas Card

 With the new "online exclusives", we have the opportunity to do a few Christmas cards & projects before the holiday season gets underway.  Think of it as a little cool way to think about the cooler weather in the middle of this oh so HOT summer.

Today, I used the Golden Greenery Collection to make a stunning Christmas card.  I love the way this gatefold tucks together to make this card a bit different.

Thoughtful Journey Shaker Happy Birthday Card

 I am always amazed by a beautiful "SHAKER CARD."  So many people are intimidated by the process of making this type of card, when really they are quite easy if you follow the steps.

1.    Cut your opening in the front of card or front matte.

2.    Cover opening with a piece of acetate using tear and tape.

3.    Layout your foam strips around the window opening.

4.    Sprinkle in your shaker bits.

5.    Cover with your scene paper & make sure everything is sealed.

6.  Continue with your card as usual with decorating it with flowers, bows, gems, etc.

As you can see these steps are easy to do if you follow them in the correct order.
