2023 Flip Over Desk Calendar ~ April

Leave a comment

Welcome to my Corner of the World

Once 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, Easter Daffodils – which are usually flowering around Easter time in my home country.

I do love a fancy/fun fold card ~ so do the ladies who come to my in-person classes. I also like them to be as simple and easy as possible to make while still being impressive! Today’s card relies on the score/folds to achieve both of these 🙂

We also have some techniques going on, two step stamping, die cutting and creating our own decorative paper, there is a video to following along with to show how it all comes together!

Welcome to my Corner of the World

One of the ladies in my Stampin’ UP! team recently promoted to Bronze Elite, it was my absolute pleasure to make and send a card to celebrate her achievement. I reached for the Copper Foil straightaway and paired it with Very Vanilla Card and the Two Tone Flora Dies. I was really thrilled with how it turned out and hope she liked it as well.

Leave a comment

Welcome to my Corner of the World

I cannot believe we are heading toward Easter already, it seems just a short time ago we celebrated the New Year and I packed away the Christmas decorations for another year!

Today I am using the Easter Bunny Bundle for my card, this is such a cute stamp set, with 3 little bunnies, some cute Easter eggs and other useful decorative stamps and greetings, including a little grass stamp!. My card colors come from the Dandy Designs decorative paper – this was a Sale-a-bration freebie that is sadly no longer available, however there are other decorative papers available that would work just as well!

Leave a comment

Welcome to my Corner of the World

At a recent class I was asked by my card crafting ladies to share how to use the two types of Embossing Paste that Stampin’ UP! offer. It is a fun product to work with and while you can use any of the ready made masks/stencils available in the catalogs, it is fun to make your own! I used the Split Card Texture Dies to create mine then added some heat embossing on vellum and a little vintage’ing as well – so today’s card is packed with techniques!
