Continue readingJust wanted to hop on to wish all my readers a Happy Thanksgiving. Whether you live in the US and celebrate today or whether you live in other parts of the world I want to reach out to let you know I am thankful for your friendship and support.
Continue readingJust look at this cheerful little chap! Just loving the Christmas Season. I used the Snowman Season Stamp Set to create this quick and simple card, perfect for reproducing lots of times, especially if you are running short of time! 🙂
Continue readingI am very fond of the traditional Red, Green and Gold for Christmas cards, but I do like to slip in some more contemporary colors from time to time. Today’s card features the Stars are Shinning Stamp Set, an easy fun fold and Gorgeous Grape paired with Fresh Freesia Card
Continue readingStampin’ UP! has so many beautiful decorative papers available to us papercrafters. The Peaceful Place Specialty Designer Paper has some really stunning images that just cry out to be the center piece of your Christmas Cards.
As I explain in the video, there is one design in the pack that has the same image 4 times on one sheet of 12 x 12, creating a sheet 6 x 6 which I was not sure what to do with. I decided to use it to create 2 cards using a technique I call a Layered Panel – this post explains how I work out the cutting and sizes of layers to create 2 different layouts.
Continue readingI think today’s card would fit most any occasion, particularly for a guy – which I struggle with. I chose the neutral colors of Very Vanilla with Mossy Meadow and Sahara Sand – I thought the combination was ‘peaceful’

You will have either arrived from Polly’s post or starting here ~ either way WELCOME . We do not have a theme, but each of the talented artisans showcase what they are working on at this time each month. There will be techniques, fancy folds, 3D, new products and ideas – a veritable treasure chest for you to draw on every month.
Continue readingThis is the second in the series of seasonal samplers I was asked to design for a class. Home decor is a particular favorite of mine, I just love to pull together the different elements, experimenting with different textures and colors until I trip over the ‘right’ combination.
I resisted the temptation to use the ‘traditional’ autumn/fall colors of cajun craze and pumpkin pie, although I did not use any of the papers, the color combination was inspired by the Blackberry Beauty Designer Series Paper so you will see Blackberry Bliss, Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive and the different shade of gold in the Brushed Metallic Card.
Continue readingA change of theme for today – with Thanksgiving and Christmas on the horizon we are going to need some thank you cards. I chose to feature the Seashells 3D embossing folder, just adding a simple greeting so the details of this embossing folder do not get lost. I am thinking this would make a really good masculine thank you card…….. change out the greeting and it would be a perfect masculine birthday card as well!!
