Continue readingI am super excited about all the fabulous and gorgous new designer papers, ribbons and embellishments in the new 2023 – 2024 Annual Catalog. You are going to LOVE them and I have been asked to do a product share again and 5 options for you to choose from.
What is a Share?
A share is a sampling of the new papers and/or ribbon and/or embellishments from Stampin’ UP!. It allows you to see, feel and use products before buying the full packs of your favorites. It is a great way to get your hands on a little of everything without breaking the bank!

Continue readingOnce again I enjoyed designing and making my flip over calendar for 2023, with the help of my friend, Elly – while she was visiting from the UK in October. . As I have done for the last few years I am going to be sharing one at the start of each month. This was designed for a stamp camp in early December 2022, we had such fun making them and my ladies have made me promise to do another for 2024
I am changing things a little for this year, I recognise not everyone is into making 3D items so have created a card for each month, using elements from the calendar for that month. .
So today I share, happy, bright Poppies

This is one of the techniques I shared with my monthly class at the end of March, although most the products I used have now retired 😦 – the technique will work for any papers, stamps and dies that you have in your stash!
Continue readingI like to introduce new colors to you and to pair them with colors you might already have in your stash. Today our new color is Pecan Pie, part of the refreshed Neutrals family and I have paired it with Petal Pink and a little dash of Old Olive for the leaves.
You all know that I love flowers and am always drawn to new stamp sets that feature them, especially if they have greetings as well! The Cheerful Daisies Stamp Set fits that bill perfectly and it particularly speaks to me as one of our Yorkie’s was called Daisy and we were especially close.
Continue readingI have been introducing you to the new colors from Stampin’ UP!. Today my card features Moody Mauve which is one of the new incolors and Bubble Bath which is a new core color.
The Timeless Arrangements Stamp set with coordinating dies is already a favorite and I have just used it once! The video gives you some hints and tips on using the dies to create a very feminine card.
Continue readingToday’s card features the Elegant Borders Die Set paired with the Sentimental Park Stamp set and (now retired) Regency Park Decorative Paper.
My video shows my thought processes in creating the card along with hints and tips on using the Elegant Borders Dies
Continue readingHip, Hip Hooray ~ Misty Moonlight has returned to the Stampin UP family as a core color!!! This is such a lovely, sophisticated blue and works brilliantly with Smoky Slate. The Nature’s Prints Stamp Set carried over into the new catalog, so I have mixed a new product in with one already in my stash. I think this color combo would work for a male or female card!
