Today’s card is another in my Sweet and Simple series where I have set myself a little challenge using a small amount of equipment and supplies – kind of like one of those cookery shows where you are given 3 or 4 ingredients and you have to turn it into a spectacular 4 course meal!
I think it meets my aim of using one stamp set, a couple of ink pads, an embellishment and a tool.
Continue readingHappy Halloween Everyone! We love to see the ‘teeny tinies’ and ‘littles’ from the neighbourhood coming around in their costumes to collect candy.
Today’s card is my final Halloween theme for this year and has some quick and easy techniques to create a ‘Spooktacular’ card. Featuring the Ghoulish Goodies Stamp Set with the Essential Tag Punch building up a spooky mosaic of halloween images.
Continue readingToday’s card was inspired by the Playing with Patterns Combo Ribbon Pack! ~ the combination of the Coastal Cabana and Night of Navy Ribbons was just perfect. This is the card I created for my niece’s 18th birthday earlier this month. I am not too much up on the likes and dislikes of young people reaching their majority but I know she is really not into lots of frills.
There is only a tiny bit of stamping for my greeting which comes from the Peaceful Moments Stamp Set.

Welcome to the Ink & Share Scrapbook blog hop, we are group of international Stampin UP! demonstrators sharing our ideas and creativity with you.
You will have either arrived from Alison’s post or starting here ~ either way WELCOME. This month are theme is ‘Shapes’ ~ this was a challenge for me and as a result my page is very simple.
Once again I have chosen to use a 12 x 12 page – mainly because Stampin’ UP! has 12 x 12 card stock in all its colors which gives me a fantastic choice

Once again I am thrilled to be taking part in the Ink . Stamp . Share blog hop, we are a group of Stampin’ Up!®️Demonstrators from around the globe here to bring you inspiration through creativity!
You will have either arrived from Susan’s post or starting here ~ either way WELCOME . This month our theme is Autumn or Halloween, I am in LOVE with the slimline card that has become very popular in the last couple of months – so I have featured that in today’s card.
Continue readingToday I have a cute decorated chocolate bar wallet, featuring some of the autumn/fall and Thanksgiving themed goodies from the August – December 2020 mini catalog.
I am a big fan of autumn themed colors and ‘things’, pumpkins, leaves, rusty golds and coppers, so I kinda went a bit crazy with this gift~packaged bar of chocolate. Come back tomorrow to see another autumn themed project I designed for a blog hop.
Continue readingJust 10 more days before Halloween, time for another Halloween card, this time featuring the lovely and fun images from the Ghoulish Goodies Stamp Set. If you look very closely you will see I used the Cobwebs 3D Embossing Folder on the Basic Black layer ~ how cute is that ?
Continue readingAn easy fun fold for today with a simple gatefold with a front panel, they look so impressive but so easy to do.
I used the Healing Hugs stamp set to create this ‘get well soon’ card in nice bold Night of Navy and Mango Melody colors. I think by simply changing out the greeting you could use this design for thank you, birthday or simply ‘just because’!
Continue readingI love to design my cards but there are times when I kinda draw a blank, either nothing comes to mind or too much comes to mind and I feel a bit overwhelmed. The Stampin’ UP! catalogs show us all the wonderful products available but did you know it is also a book of ideas? In fact when I first came across Stampin’ UP! in 2006 it was called an ‘Idea Book’ (and I still have that catalog in my stash!)
All that being said – I found today’s card tucked into those pages, I changed it a tiny bit (of course) but it is very close 🙂
Continue readingI love the decorative papers that Stampin’ UP! has for us to use and just cannot bear to waste any of it if I can help it. I recently was cutting papers from the Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper for a project and had a whole bunch of pieces left, some of them as small as 1 3/8 x 1!
I chose a couple of the colors from the paper, in this case Flirty Flamingo and Pear Pizzazz and created a whole bunch of ‘Thank You’ cards which I sent out to the lovely people who chose to shop for the SU goodies with me in September.
