Thoughtful Journey DSP Steals the Show

 Don't we just love a beautiful pack of DSP (Designer Series Paper)?  Well, of course we do.  Do you hoard it or can't wait to use it.  I think we tend to hoard but the true pleasure comes when we use it to make something beautiful.

This is the way with this pack of paper.  It is 6" x 6" pack of 48 sheets.  Each one is a pleasure to look at and even more of a pleasure to use.

The card I made today only uses a small amount of this beautiful paper but it is stunning nontheless.

Submarine Life-Sending Oceans of Love

 Sometimes we like to move out of our comfort zone and try something a little different than our normal style of cardmaking.

With Submarine Life you are able to do this that with your cardmaking ideas.  It is truly a wealth of images and oh so cute too.  I just adore the fish, octopus, starfish & crab with their snorkeling equipment.  How cute is that?

And who doesn't love the little yellow submarine.

That just makes you want to break out in the Beatles song from way back when (that is if you remember the song, "Yellow Submarine."

Country Birdhouse Bundle Birthday Card-Because you can never have too many BD cards

 I had a blast designing this card.  I absolutely love this bundle but it is so much more than a bundle, it is a collection which includes 2 stamp set, 2 matching die sets, 2 packs of DSP, an embossing folder, gems & a double pack of ribbon.  To say this is a Big Bundle is an understatement.  Every aspect of the Country Woods Collection is gorgeous and when you put them all together it is an unforgettable collection to work with.

Layers of Beauty Birthday Card-project 1

 Who doesn't love roses?  I don't think I know anyone who doesn't love the beauty, the aroma, the delicate petals, everything about the rose (except the thorns.)

With Layers of Beauty Bundle you will capture all the beauty of the rose but you don't have to worry about a thorn.  LOL

I made my first project from this set a birthday card. I also used two of the new In Colors that will premier in the new catalog in May 2024.

Twist & Pop Birthday Card for Autumn featuring Fluffiest Friends & Nested Essentials Dies

 Autumn is my youngest granddaughter and she turned 8 on Monday, April 7th.  Where are the years going?  It seems like just yesterday she was a baby.  They do grow up way too fast.

I always make her an over the top card because she is my biggest fan where my card making is concerned.  She always wants to know what I'm working on and it's always, "let me see" and then the oooohs & awwwws.

I have made this card before so it's not new to my channel but many of you who are new to my channel may not have seen it from me.

Shadow Box Card Featuring Simply Zinnia Bundle & Flowering Zinnia Designer Series Paper

 Oh the bright colors of Spring & Summer.  After a long winter of browns, grays and cold weather, we welcome in the spring air, the birds singing and the beauty of our world as it opens it petals to the warm sunlight.  Much like us, flowers crave the warmth of spring & summer days.  Zinnias are a flower that thrives in the summer heat.  

In this collection of beautiful products, Stampin' Up has brought to life the lovely colors, large blooms and that feeling that only the warmth of summer can show.

I love the way this shadow box card opens to reveal a window that we can peer through to see the glory of our Zinnia.

On the card I designed today, I have incorporated the beauty of the Stippled Roses stamp & die set to create a wedding card.  Of course, you could change this up and make it an anniversary card and even a birthday card.  Anyone you want to convey your love to would appreciate getting this card.

Hey Chuck Crazy Chicken Birthday Card

Hey Chuck has always had a special place in my heart.  Stampin' Up has showcased their family of Crazy Chickens quite often and I love each of them.  There is something so quaint about these crazy little chicks with their crazy feathers, whimsical expressions that just warms my heart.

Today's card showcases each chicken in it's own frame and with the rustic look of wood grain in the background it has a barnyard feel.  I used the Stylish Shape Dies to make my frames and I stamped and colored my birds to make them even more crazy looking than before.

Enchanting right???

Even if the chickens aren't your cup of tea, you can use this layout for a number of other stamped images.  So pull out your craft supplies and give it a whirl.  I would love to see your creations over on our Facebook Group.

Flip Card featuring Latte Love Bundle & A Little Latte DSP

 We all love our coffee these days but coffee has changed drastically from the old days.  Remember when coffee was just a bland hot drink that we used in the morning for a pep-me-up, you know our caffeine fix.  Now it is more like a dessert with artwork on top of the frothy goodness.  And, I'm not knocking it at all because I love myself a good latte whether I am making it at home or picking it up from my favorite coffee shop.

Stampin' Up has come up with a collection of products that fit our need for coffee.  Latte Love is the perfect set to use to make our coffee lovin' friends just the right card for whatever occasion we need.

I also made my prototype using Poetic Expression DSP

Shabby Vintage Card for any occasion

 I love the shabby chic vintage look on any card in any colors but when you combine a rustic blue (misty moonlight) with beige (crumb cake) you get something magical.  With the right stamps, a little tearing, some ink dragging and WOW.  You got yourself a vintage card you would love to send to any of your friends or family.

Enduring Beauty-Embrace the beauty of You

 Can you believe it's March already?  Oh how times does fly!!  The month of March has always been a special month for me.  

1.    Daylight Saving Time begins (March 10)

2.    It's my birthday month.  (March 11)

3.    St. Patrick's Day (March 17)  

4.    It is the month that ushers in Spring. (March 21) 

5.    Easter comes early (March 31)

It is easy to see that March is quite the month.  It is always a month of change and uncertainty.  The weather can be crazy!  Anything from snow & ice to super hot days.  So you can either build a snowman or fly a kite all depending on the weather.  It is a month of transitions.

In today's card I wanted to showcase the beauty of a bundle called Enduring Beauty.  It is so pretty and elegant and one that I'm sure you will want in your stash.
