The new catalog is here! We can order after Noon MT today!!!

June 3, 2020

Crafters are always ready for new products, right? Even if you think you there will always be more that you 'need'! It's not hoarding or collecting if you actually use it, right?

Hopefully you have your new catalog now. If you do not have a local demonstrator let me know if you'd like one; they cost just $5 for shipping to you. You can see all of the new products here online.

Here's a card I made using all 5 of the beautiful new 2020-22 In Colors:

The card base is Misty Moonlight and the three 1 1/4" strips are Just Jade, Magenta Madness and Cinnamon Cider. I added the greeting die-cuts in White and Bumble Bee. These pretty die-cuts are from the Tasteful Labels dies on page 179; they're awesome and one of my favorites I've used a ton.

For my long distance customers I'm holding a Virtual New Catalog Party Wednesday evening from 6-9 here on Facebook. I'm so excited about this; it's the first time I've held one!

I'll have videos, both live and recorded, fun & games, ordering specials, door prizes & more.

The easy way to do the Whitewashing Technique; with video

February 8, 2022
I've been playing with the Whitewashing Technique lately. Today I'm sharing a card I made on Facebook Live with the Honeybee Home bundle.

Save
You can see another group of cards I used this technique on here.

Save

Please watch the video to see how to do this. Here are some tips:
- I stamped the main image using Gorgeous Grape ink onto the same color card stock.
- Let it dry a bit and color the image in with White Craft ink and a water painter brush.
- If you want to see the stamped image you'll want to use a light amount of White Craft ink.
- I add water to some White Craft ink in a puddle and use that to 'paint'.
- You can paint with strokes to indicate lines on your image.

I used the Heart & Home doilies under the Tasteful Label die-cut.

The background paper is the Simply Marbelous Sale-a-Bration DSP that I added a bit of Highland Heather ink to.

Here's the video! Click on the picture below to watch it. The Whitewashing Technique is the 2nd project I share.

How I made this neat Pop-up Gift Bag Fun Fold card

February 7, 2022
We made this fantastic Pop-up Gift Bag fun fold card at my January card clubs. It's such a unique and special way to add a gift card or a little something extra inside a card!

Save

I used the Friendly Hello bundle from our 2022 Sale-a-Bration brochure. See it here. It's free with any $100 purchase from my online Stampin' Up! store.

Isn't it extraordinary!? Everyone loved their finished card and most were surprised at how easy it was. Here's a close-up of the inside.

Below is the template with measurements. Your best bet is to watch the video below to see how to assemble it and adhere it inside a card.

I did turn this card into a fun fold as well with a belly band but you sure wouldn't have to. It could be placed in the fold of any card you make!

Save

The Friendly Hello bundle includes both a full photopolymer stamp set and a package of beautiful 12 X 12" pack of designer paper!

Who knew?!

February 5, 2022

If someone had told me I'd be doing 8 videos a month 10 years ago I would have scoffed!

One of my best friends encouraged me to do videos years ago and I told here I would never, ever do videos. She loved to remind me about that! *Sadly she passed away a few months ago.

I've been watching my YouTube subscribers grow and grow and cannot believe that I now have over 15,000 people following me! Incredible!

I get so many lovely comments from my followers; it truly means a lot that you are all enjoying and getting inspired by them.

Thank you, THANK YOU!! You are why I LOVE what I do!
