Her colors include Granny Apple Green, Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry and Cherry Cobbler. She added tons of leaves from the Changing Leaves dies. The embossing folder is the Leaf Fall 3D seen here. 

Check out the Playful Ghosts stamp set here.  It's filled with cute & playful images.

  • Easy Seriously the Best Diagonal Strips cards

    I made these fun diagonal stripes cards on a recent Facebook Live.  It's so simple to do!  

    I used one of my favorite stamp sets; Seriously the Best here. I love the pretty bold font!  You can see it here.  It also coordinates with the Seriously the Best cards kit; which is 60% off!

    I chose to use the retiring 6 X 6" 2019-21 In Color paper pack.  It's still available while supplies last and is sale right now here!

    Diagonal strip Save

    The strips are 1" long; you need about two of each at 1" X 6".  Here's how to make it:

    • You'll need one piece of White CS measuring 4" X 5 1/4" to adhere the strips to.
    • Adhere two DSP strips across from end to end leaving a little space between the two.  Tip: 6" is a little short so I cut the Peacock strip in half and separated it a bit under the greeting.
    • Now you'll add short lengths of DSP perpendicular to the first two strips, alternating colors and leaving a bit of space between them all.
    • Now you can trim off the excess even with the original White CS piece.  
    • Adhere to your main card (5 1/2" X 8 1/2")

    You might notice the cute little flowers on the greeting tags and that pretty, stitched die-cut.  Well these are new products coming out in the upcoming new Stampin' Up! Annual catalog!  The flowers are a new border punch and the dies are part of the Tasteful Label dies. 

    You can order these items on June 3rd! (or purchase the Stampin' Up! Starter kit and you can add them to your $125 in product!)  Read about that here.

  • Morning Star

    Have you seen this pretty stamp set yet?  It's called Morning Star (seen here) and is one of Stampin' Up!'s distinktive type of stamps. This means you can get multiple hues of color with just one inking.  It's amazing!  

    It is retiring next week so if you'd like it, get it now! Here's a few cards I created when playing with it.  I think this set has been a bit of a sleeper; lost among the many favorite in the 2020 January-June catalog.

    Here I used Old Olive and Gorgeous Grape; one of my favorite green and purple combos.  Because this stamp set is photopolymer you can easily stamp the images just where you want them, placing them perfectly.

    Here are the measurements and supplies:

    • Old Olive 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4"
    • Regals designer paper 5 1/4" X 1 7/8"
    • Gorgeous Grape 4 3/4" X 3 1/2"
    • White 4 1/2" X 3 3/8"
    • Label Me Fancy Punch, Grape striped ribbon, dimensionals, mini glue dots 

    Here's another simple card made with this pretty stamp set this time in green & blue:

    I chose to use Pear Pizzazz with Night of Navy here.  This is our Neutrals designer paper pack and it is already out of stock.  It was on the Last Chance list seen here.  I'll miss these pretty patterns although we are getting new packs of 6" designer paper in the upcoming catalog.

    Measurements:

    • Pear Pizzazz 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Navy designer paper 5 1/4" X 2"
    • White – 5 1/4" strip for the Ornate Style die-cut
    • White 3 1/4" X 2 1/2"
    • Navy 3 1/2" X 3"
    • Ornate Style dies, Olive/Terracotta Tile 1/4" ribbon, Noble Peacock rhinestones

  • Spring Punched Banner; cute home decor piece!

    I haven't shared this project yet; it was the bonus project many of my gals received in their Spring Retreat package.   It's made with the Pleased as Punch designer paper; it was free during Sale-a-Bration earlier this year.  

    Spring Retreat banner Save

    To create the banners I first cut a piece of card stock 4 1/4" long X 3 1/2" wide.  Then I made a mark at the center of the short end and cut from that mark to the opposite corner.  Then I had my template!  

    I added lots and lots of punched pieces!  I used the Umbrella punch, the Tulips punch, Daisy, Leaf, Butterfly Duo, the Small Bloom punch and the Heart Punch pack.  A few of the banners are textured too.  It would be fun to hang this in your craft room or on a window .
