  • True Love Designer Paper; GORGEOUS!


    The True Love Designer paper is my very favorite designer paper in the 2021 Spring Catalog; it has gorgeous Black & White patterns.  I have always found Black & White  paper to be the easiest to work with since I can add almost any color I want to set it off.  Bright or soft colors all work wonderfully! 

    I made this card for another online swap a few weeks ago.  I just love the easy layout and how it makes the best use of both the Designer paper AND your card stock.  

    Products used:

    Black, White & Magenta Madness CS, True Love DSP, Black ink, Black glittered ribbon, Sweet Ice Cream stamp set , Treasured Tags pick a punch for White CS strip, Matte Black dots 

    Since Stampin' Up! had to stop offering their Whisper White card stock (manufacturer went out of business) we now have Basic White products.  And they're all available again!  Yay!  Check out this flyer here.  Download BASIC-WHITE-ANNOUNCEMENT-FLYER_US

    Paper saving tip: 

    With this layout you can get sixteen 3" square pieces from a 12" sheet of DSP; or 4 pieces from a 6 X 6" piece. 

    You can get 5 pieces of the main colored layer from a sheet of 8 1/2" X 11" card stock.  The cutting template for this is below; I love to use it for my inside layer especially.

  • Sale-a-Bration starts today!!! Paper Blooms Descending Layers technique


    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!

  • Free Quick & Easy One Sheet Wonder template for 12″ designer paper


    When I saw the Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper I thought it would work wonderfully with a one sheet wonder.  It's amazing and gorgeous paper that you can get FREE during Stampin' Up!'s 2021 Sale-a-Bration promotion.  It starts on Tuesday, January 5th so I cannot give you a link to the products quite yet.  But I can show you my cards!

    Aren't they sweet?  All are made with just one sheet of 12 X 12" Berry Delightful paper.  I needed just a few additional strips and layers along with greetings. The colors are Poppy Parade, Granny Apple Green, Garden Green, White & Flirty Flamingo.

    Here's the template I created.  You can watch the video below to get some tips on making these cards.


    I used the Berry Blessings stamp set which is included in the free bundle along with the Sweet Strawberry set & punch bundle from the new Spring catalog. 

    This stamp set & Designer Paper are free with a $100 purchase during SAB. 

    Here's the Sweet Strawberry bundle I used.  I love that the punch has 4 parts that match the stamps!  (You can tell which images coordinate with the punch; they're highlighted.) And notice how the fonts in both of these sets match?!!

    After I made the strawberry cards I wanted to try the blueberries sheet so I made these cards with that one. 

    I'm offering the 10 strawberry cards as a free pre-cut kit to go to anyone who chooses the Berry Delightful bundle from me during Sale-a-Bration; which runs from January 5th – February 28th. However, the supply may be limited in February.

    Or if you already own the bundle and want the pre-cut kit you can order it here in my Shop. 

    **Kits ordered in January will ship out at the end of January and can be combined with my other monthly kits to save on shipping.

    Below is the video where I share some tips on using my OSW Template: 

    Remember; Sale-a-Bration starts tomorrow; Tuesday, January 5th!  It's the best time to purchase Stampin' Up! products!
