Pretty Daisy Daydream card & sneak peek of upcoming Paper Pumpkin kits

April 7, 2025

I created this beautiful card using the March Daisy Daydream Paper Pumpkin kit. It's one of my alternatives made with items in the kit.

Save

I used the card base and the stamp set but added a few other items such as:

Perennial Postage die-cut that I sponged the edges on
leaves die-cuts from the Cheerful Daisy dies
Daffodil Delight ribbon (adhered loops to the back)
a Mossy Meadow layer
Adhesive-Backed Metallic gems

Each month all of my Paper Pumpkin customers (and team members) receive a free tutorial filled with alternative ideas. It's really fun to receive a kit each month and start playing with the items in the box.

Go here to subscribe to receive a box each month. You can manage which kits you'll receive – skipping or adding an extra.

Here is a sneak peek of the next three months of Paper Pumpkin:

And there is an add on just for PP subscribers called Hugs Abloom dies seen here. This set of dies will work with each of the upcoming 3 months of kits!

Adorable Poppin’ By card swaps

May 22, 2025

Today I'm sharing 3 adorable cards made with the Poppin' By bundle from our latest Online Exclusive release.

Candace made this amazing fun fold card for our May team swap:

She folded her card front into a box and added lots of sponged popcorn and the cute box on the lower front. Note his sunglasses & shoes! They're part of the stamps & dies bundle. The corrugated card stock on the front mimics a box so well.

Save

Do you see the window sheet strips on the two pieces of popcorn coming out of the box? They flutter when you move the card. She also added a 'wobble' to the top piece of popcorn. Love this so much!

Here's the Poppin' By bundle – stamp set & dies. So cute! See it here:

I received a few cute popcorn cards with my Disney swaps.

This first one is made by Marcia Besecker. She added so much detail to her card!

Save

Lots of texture and fun details on this one!

Next is an adorable swap card made by Amy Storie. I love her choice of colors and the fun accents she added to her card.

This bundle is super cute don't you think?

Back from Disney World – the 2024 Stampin’ Up! incentive trip

May 19, 2025

We had a wonderful time on the Stampin' Up! annual incentive trip to Disney World. We got home late last night and even though we hoped to have a restful trip we were quite exhausted. These North Dakotans were not ready for 96 degree heat!

I'll share a few of our favorite photos today and more of Stampin' Up! products tomorrow.

This is what we saw on the TV screen when we arrived to our room:

Below is the view from our room in the Grand Floridian Resort at Disney World:

This basket was found in our room at the end of the first night there. A super neat felt basket (that folded flat) filled with some of our favorite snacks & beverages (a survey was sent to us last fall).

Save

The beautiful nightly fireworks we could see from our resort. We spent many evenings at the outdoor cafe visiting with our friends and enjoying them.

I had to get a picture with Sara (SU CEO) with the paper chain background!

Our friends, Dan & Lori Heiling, Susie & Deke Wood and us at Hollywood Studios.
