Slimline Anniversary Card featuring Stenciling Technique

Welcome to my Corner of the World

I just love slim line cards – they give you a little more room to work a design than our regular 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 cards without having to pay any additional postage!

Today I have a video tutorial to share with you from a recent You Tube live I did – as I explained this is a card for my youngest step-son and his wife’s anniversary – I hope you enjoy it! You can tune into my live event each Sunday at 12 noon (CST) 6pm (GMT) – here is the link www.youtube.com/c/CindysCorner100

Timeless Greeting ~ Masculine Card Kit

Welcome to my Corner of the World

First of all Happy Thanksgiving to all my readers – I wish you, your family and friends a peaceful day.

I have said on many occasions that I struggle with cards for the fellas in my life…….. so imagine my delight when Stampin’ UP! introduced a new kit at our recent demonstrator get together called OnStage! The kit contains everything you need to make 8 cards, including envelopes, ink spot, clear block, embellishments, adhesives and an exclusive stamp set. Today I am sharing one of the two cards I made with the Timeless Greetings Kit ( I already posted one off before I could take a picture of it 🙂 )

If you are looking for a great Christmas gift for a friend or family member then this is one for you.

Cottage Rose ‘Any Occasion’ Fun Fold Card

Welcome to my Corner of the World

Today’s card has a bunch of techniques ~ heat embossing, dry embossing, die cutting, along with the Double Flap fancy fold. When it was finished I realized is an ultra feminine card with a bit of a vintage feel going on as well – that wasn’t the plan but that is how it turned out. The Abigail Rose decorative paper and Cottage Rose Stamp set seems to lend itself to the shabby chic/ vintage style so when I chose to use it with these colors perhaps it was a subconscious choice!!!

Today I am using this bundle to demonstrate a die stenciling technique, where I have used the dies to create stencils which gives a really neat coloring technique.

Stampin’ UP! Splendid Day Card #4

Welcome to my Corner of the World

As a Stampin’ UP! demo I get my hands on new products about4 – 6 weeks ahead of their public release, I also get to attend events, virtual and in person, where Stampin’ UP! shares ideas and designs. So it was in June when I was able to get my hands on the Splendid Day Suite of products and was able to make several samples which I have shared in the last few weeks. (link below if you missed them)
