I have mentioned before that I find it hard to make cards for the guys in our lives – Stampin’ UP! always comes thru for us though and today I am sharing the samples and video from Stampin’ UP! on one of the best guy card stamp set and coordinating dies in the 2020 Mini Catalog ~ The Mountain Air Bundle with the Mountain Air Stamp set and Majestic Mountains Dies.
I do like to make fun fold cards – it stretches my imagination and allows me to make use of all the lovely Stampin’ UP! goodies in my stash. I have used the Very Versailles stamp set along with the Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper.
I think it is so much easier to show you than to explain in words so the Twisted Fun Fold Card I am sharing today has a video as well as a downloadable PDF recipe for you.
So I think it is time to revisit the Big Shot – if you don’t have one you should certainly make the investment – and if you do but it doesn’t get used much – may be this post will encourage you to dust it off – purchase a few new products to use with it and make it your best buddy again!
Continuing my theme of using Designer series paper, here is another card from the shoe box swap, it features one of the designs from the ”Shine on’ Specialty Designer Series Paper, which has colored printing on one side and shiny silver foil designs on the reverse!!…. guess which one I chose to show?
During this last week I had a stamp camp where we made a covered notebook with pen and notecards. One of my ladies asked if she could come but did not want to make the covered notebook. She asked to borrow my Stampin Trimmer and worked with the supplies I had prepared for her. I was thrilled and delighted when she finished and shared with the results with the class.
Early last month I celebrated a milestone birthday and my friends threw a surprise party for me. I had a great evening, there were friends, old and new, some of my downline team and some of my lovely customers. Each of them was so generous. I ended up with a basketful of gift cards which I shall be saving for the spring to choose goodies for my new garden!!
