3 completely different cards with the Friendly Hello bundle; WOW!

January 21, 2022

Our Sale-a-Bration promotion is everyone's favorite time of year; who doesn't love to get something free?!

This year our product line includes a stamp set & 12 X 12" designer paper combo called Friendly Hello. I love both the stamps and the DSP. The stamps include floral, botanical and greeting images and the paper can be either soft & pretty or bright & eye catching!

Look at these three extremely different cards all featuring the same stamps & DSP:

Save

This card is one I made for an online swap I participated in. I chose to use the Granny Apple Green sheet of DSP and paired it with Black & White. It's a simple layout that really shows off the colors & products.

Details:

The greeting is stamped onto a die-cut from the Hippo & Friends die.
That delicate leaf die-cut is from the Tropical Layers dies in the Jan-June catalog.
The butterfly is from the Catching Butterflies Sale-a-Bration stamp set.

Next is a pretty swap Ginny made but so much softer in colors.

Save

She covered the entire card front with her Designer Paper and added a banner from another sheet of the DSP under the main White scalloped piece. She stamped in Gray Granite and colored in the bird & flowers with Blends markers.

Lastly today is another card I made for a swap. I paired the Pool Party sheet of this Designer Paper with Early Espresso. I've always loved these colors together. I stamped the flowers in Early Espresso ink onto our Vellum card stock and immediately heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Yes you CAN emboss with our Classic ink pads!

Save

I textured the Pool Party card stock with the new Gingham embossing folder and rounded the upper right corner. I also cut our new frayed 3/4" White ribbon in half lengthwise and wrapped it round the left edge of the card stock.

Velvet Meadow gatefold card with video & free project sheet

August 3, 2026

This is another card we made at my July card clubs. It features the Velvet Meadow specialty DSP seen here.

Save

It’s a simple gatefold card. I matched most of the DSP so it created a full panel on the front. This DSP has fussy or flocked areas on it. It does feel velvety!

I also used the new Exciting Times punch bundle for the center. You can see it here.

Save

Here’s what the inside looks like. I added a strip of the DSP along with the white for stamping and signing. Then added a skinny divider of Bubble Bath for a little accent color.

Save

My colors include Berry Burst, Bubble Bath and Peaceful Pine.

Save

I created a free project sheet for this card; click here to download or print it. Remember it’s a great idea to save these on your computer for easy access.

The video tutorial for this card and one more neat fun fold is below. Thanks for popping in today!

Update on our move to Bismarck, ND

July 31, 2026

If you haven’t watched my recent videos you may not know that we have moved from Minot, ND to Bismarck, ND this month. It’s been a super busy time of downsizing, selling excess, packing and moving.

Why did we move? Well, there are many reasons but mostly my husband retired and we moved to be closer to our son and other family. It was very difficult to leave our beautiful home but we will love our new home too. Here’s a picture of my office/craft room before I was able to unpack. I’ll share new photos once I’m settled.

Save

In that back doorway is a walk in closet; that will help with storage! I did find a nice L shaped desk and hope to get that set up today; then I can really set up my room.

Save

This is why I’ve been missing in action lately; it’s hard to do both stamping/business and moving/getting settled. So I’m taking a bit of a break in August. Have patience with me; I’ll be back to blogging and videos soon!
