January 5, 2021

From today through February 28th you can earn free product with your Stampin' Up! orders! For every $50 or $00 you spend you can choose a free item. Check it out here.

The new Mini Cut & Emboss machine is now available! And when you purchase it you can choose a free SAB item too!

It's small, light weight and fits on your work surface so nicely! It also fits many of our dies and you can see which ones by the special icon in the catalogs.

This cute machine has a compact footprint for easy storage and travel. The 3-1/2" (8.9 cm) platform works with many of Stampin' Up!'s smaller dies and embossing folders. Includes 1 Mini Base Plate, 2 Mini Cutting Plates, 1 Mini Embossing Plate, and 1 Mini 3D Embossing Plate

Are you enjoying these sneak peaks from the new 2021 Stampin' Up! Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs? It's always fun to play with brand new products. Today I'm playing with new 2021 Sale-a-Bration (or SAB) items.

The Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper is full of flowers and fun color combos! I decided to use my Stitched Rectangle dies to create this layered effect. If you want to watch a video on how to do this click here.

I used the third smallest and the third largest die in the Stitched Rectangles set. It looks like I wasted a ton of paper but the entire card is made with one piece of DSP measuring 5 1/4" X 4". It's so cool!

Navy layers are:

Main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
Smallest rectangle is 3 3/8" X 2", middle is 4 1/2" X 3 1/8"

You might wonder what I used for the greeting. The White piece is a new die from the Potted Succulent dies seen here. The Rococo Rose layers are punched pieces; 2 of them. I used a 1" X 3 3/4" strip and the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch for the ends. The center piece is the Story Label punch. The pearls on the label are the NEW Pastel Pearls on page 19 of the new Spring Catalog seen here.

Thanks for stopping in today; stay tuned for more projects tomorrow!

Easiest way to create a scene; the Oceanfront stamp set!

April 26, 2022

Making swaps with a 'water theme' for my Flowerbug's Team was my first play with the Oceanfront stamp set seen here. I found out how easy it is to create a beautiful scene with just 4 stamped images.

Save

My colors include Pool Party, Balmy Blue, Black & Sahara Sand.

Save

The Pebbles Enamel Shapes embellishments are so perfect for the faux stones on the beach. They were unavailable for quite awhile but they're now back!

Save

The greeting & Palm tree are from the Paradise Palms bundle seen here. It pairs wonderfully with the Oceanfront stamp set.

Save

The Diorama dies make this card even more unique. I added Stampin' Dimensionals to the outer 'frame' of the scene and adhered the center down flat. This reveals just a bit of the Black layer and gives dimension or depth to the scene.

Using the Stamparatus helped make these 14 swap cards quick work! I love that we can reverse the plates on our Stamparatus so I could stamp all 4 images; one on each side of the 2 plates.

Save

I think these cards are a great 'guy' card or for those who love the beach.

Stack & Cut card technique; make 4 quick cards with your Designer Paper

April 25, 2022
On tonight's FB Live we're making Stack & Cut cards! Monday, April 25th at 7:30 pm here on my FB page.

If you can't watch it live it will be on my YouTube channel here.

Save

I chose to use the Heart & Home designer paper and the Blessings of Home stamp & dies bundle (seen here) for these pretty cards. This designer paper is retiring at the end of May. I like the fact that each sheet has a white wood pattern on one side.

Save

Here's now to make these Stack & Cut cards: Choose 4 different patterns of Designer Paper and then cut them into pieces using the template below.

Sort the pieces so one piece of each pattern fits on each card front. You'll create 4 different but similar cards quickly! Embellish as you'd like.

Save

Here's a photo of the pieces I started with.
- 4 full cards of Pale Papaya – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
- 4 Garden Green pieces at 4" X 5 1/4"
- the 16 pieces of Designer Paper – cut from the 4 pieces of DSP you started with
Save

Here's the template I used for the 4 pieces of Designer Paper. Choose patterns that coordinate in color. I love this way of using our beautiful double sided designer paper!

Tip: it's best if the patterns have a variety of sizes in their patterns.

Save

The Flowers of Home dies (seen here) are delicate with many leaves & flower options.

Join me here tonight at 7:30 pm CT to see how easy it is to make 4 quick cards with the Stack & Cut technique.
