I love gold & glitz on Christmas cards!

October 17, 2025

Here are another set of gorgeous holiday cards made by my Flowerbug’s Team.

First is a pretty card made by Kim who chose the Peace on Earth bundle seen here.

That stunning designer paper is called Season of Elegance and can be seen here. She embossed the DSP with the Peaceful Greenery embossing folder. Simple & stunning.

Check out this pretty fun fold card made by Paula:

She featured lots of new products! The stamp set is Branching Out and is stamped on a tag from the Patterned Tags dies seen here which is also where that cute bow is from. The Designer Paper is the Traditions of Christmas specialty paper and the embossing folder is Forever Plaid. Whew!

Her measurements are:

Vanilla card base 4 1/4″ X 5 1/2″, Vanilla scored layer is 2 3/4″ X 11″ scored at 5 1/2″, textured layer is 2 1/2″ X 5 1/4″ & the DSP is 2 strips 3/4″ X 5 1/4″

I’ll share the last of our Team swaps next week.

Trip photos of London & Norway

May 31, 2023

I thought I'd share a few photos of our trip to London and the Norway cruise we just returned from. The cruise was this year's Incentive trip courtesy of Stampin' Up! There were over 300 achievers on this trip: I am so proud to be one of them! To stay within direct sales compliance I need to add that this milestone is not typical for Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators. Fewer than 1% of demonstrators actually achieve this extraordinary result.

We spent a few days in London before starting the cruise to Norway.

The first day we did a food tour in Soho, London. We love doing food tours – besides tasting local favorites we learn a lot about the area from our guide. I highly recommend doing one when traveling.

This is Chinatown in London.

We had a steamed bun filled with barbecue pork inside. It was really tasty and so unusual!

Save

Our last stop was for desert. These are lemon twists from a local patisserie. The outside is white chocolate. So delicate and yummy.

Below is a huge tiled wall of the history of Soho where we toured.

The next day we did a personal tour of London where our driver took us anywhere we wanted to go. My friend Dawn Olchefske and our husbands enjoyed a relaxing drive all over the city. Below is Big Ben.

Save

This is our driver, David. He let me sit in his black cab for a photo. The steering wheel was on the right!

Save

One of our favorite things was a gondola ride in Olden, Norway.

Save

I am not a fan of heights but for some reason this didn't bother me. We traveled up the mountain over 1000 feet in just 5 minutes! Here's a view of us at the top:

Save

This was one of the many, many waterfalls we saw while cruising the fjords in Norway. It was amazingly beautiful!

Save

We had a wonderful time on this trip – seeing the sights, visiting with our friends & being pampered! We are very glad to be back home. But we miss the food we didn't have to cook ourselves and the room steward who cleans our room each day!

Back to reality!

CUTE Zoo Crew cards

Continuing on to share another adorable swap card made by Candy. She used the Zoo Crew bundle. I love her primary, happy colors!

Save

Details:
- She used Night of Navy, Real Red & Granny Apple Green
- the embossing folder is called Merry Melody 3D
- the stitching on the Red square is from the Stitched with Whimsy dies seen here
- The ribbon is the Navy bordered 3/8" and the greetings are from the Double Oval punch
Here's the inside:

Save

Here's one I made when I was preparing samples for my new catalog open house event:

Save

I simply used a few pieces of the Zoo Crew designer paper and added a stamped flag greeting with twine on a long strip of Lost Lagoon. Cute & Quick!

Forever Friends kit; a beautiful set of foil accented cards & envelopes

May 26, 2023

Two weeks ago I had time to create at a stamping get together at our church. I took 3 kits and make them in about an hour and a half. Stress free and fun! I love using our kits because I have everything I need to make the cards; I simply need adhesives and a bone folder.!

Here's the start of my 9 cards.

Save

And here are the finished cards! I did change up the greetings because I needed a bunch of thank you cards. I kept the kit mostly as is since they were so pretty as designed.

This kit is called Forever Friends and can be seen here. It's $21 and includes everything you need to create 9 cards with coordinating envelopes like stamps, a block, ink, embellishments & more.

Save

It's just one of our many kit available in our Kit Collection online.

Each kit includes pre-cut pieces and printed images. Some kits include stamps, ink and a block. Others do not and are ready to finish without any stamping. You can choose what fits your needs.

Below is a snapshot of some of the kits in our collection. They are available from one year; but supplies can run out within that year. But they'll restock them once they do for up to that year. See them all here.

Save

Have a wonderful Memorial weekend!
