Colorful Autumn Trees card with a baby wipe technique

September 10, 2025

Fall is in the air here in North Dakota. Look at this gorgeous & colorful autumn tree!

It’s made with the new Autumn Trees bundle seen here. Here’s how I did the tree:

I stamped the tree onto Crumb Cake card stock using Crumb Cake ink.
Then die-cut it with the tree die from the bundle.
Next I inked up a baby wipe with fall colors of Garden Green, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze. I rolled it up and pressed it onto the tree die-cut repeatedly.
Lastly I used a Crumb Cake Blends marker to add more detail to the trunk.

I used the Birch Wood embossing folder on the Vanilla background and lightly blended Cajun Craze ink over it. The greeting is from the More Messages bundle.

Thanks for stopping in today!

A Pretty Diamond Fold card with free project sheet & video tutorial

August 26, 2024

This card fold looks a bit tricky but it is super easy to make!

Save

It features the beautiful Mediterranean Blooms designer paper. My colors include Lemon Lolly, Night of Navy & White.

This card starts out at 11" X 4 1/4"; score at 5 1/2" & 8 7/8".

How did I get that square to pop up on the end? Watch the video to see! But basically you trim off the outer corners from the scored and folded end.

Save

I fussy cut the lemon bunch from the designer paper. The Citrus Blooms bundle coordinates with this pretty DSP but I didn't use them here. The greetings are from the Thoughtful Wishes stamp set.

Here's the inside view:

Potions & Spells swap cards for Halloween inspiration

August 23, 2024
Today I'm sharing two fun cards made by my Flowerbug's team. They both feature the new Potions & Spells bundle seen here in the online store.

Robin made this first one; she's a master at sponging.

Don't you love her sponged background? She placed a post-it circle onto her White CS before sponging, creating the moon, which is a great place to add the sentiment. It shows off the die-cut cauldron wonderfully.

Click on the photo below to see it in the store. Look at the neat die-cuts and images in this bundle:

Next is a card made by Paula who also used this neat bundle.

Save

Her colors include Lemon Lime Twist, Basic Gray, Pumpkin Pie, Black and Gold.

Notice the neat texture of the cauldron. She inked the embossing folder before texturing it.

Here's a list of the products she used:
- So Swirly embossing folder
- Sketched Plaid background stamp seen here
- Exposed Brick embossing folder
- Wink of Stella on the bubbles & oozing slime
And look how the cauldron opens!!

Save

She scored her card stock before die-cutting so it would have an opening. So cool!!

I'll share more Team swaps next week.

Who wants a Designer Paper Share from the Holiday Catalog?!

August 22, 2024

I'm offering a designer paper share from the upcoming Holiday Catalog again! These shares are super popular with so many of you; I glad to help you get a sample of these pretty papers.

Save

It includes a 6 X 6" sheet of each 10 packs of new paper – that's 68 sheets including specialty papers. A double share would include 6" X 12" pieces (except those that come in 6" size) it would be $53 plus $8 shipping.

I can take names and add you to the list. However I cannot accept payment until August 27th due to Stampin' Up!'s rules.

The earlier you opt in the better your chance is to get these soon. They can run out of stock on some and then I have to wait until they're available. I plan to place my order on September 3rd.

Message me here to opt in and how you'd like to pay. PayPal, Venmo, cash or check. *I can use a credit card but I'd need all of your information for that – address, phone number, card number, expiration date.
