Every year I have one item on the Stampin’ Up retiring list that I can’t believe is going away. This year, I can’t believe the Modern Label punch is retiring! Especially since it goes so awesomely with the Word Window punch! I guess that just means I have to enjoy it now (and hang on…
Ok, after spending almost an hour fighting with my computer on formatting of this blog post, I’m just giving up and I hope you don’t mind if it scrolls a little long! 🙂 I’m starting the Sale-a-Bration countdown today and so I’ll be spending the next 4 days sharing Sale-a-Bration projects, and I just know I…
how about this one? All you need is some scraps and a couple punches and you have a sunshiney card for someone. I always seem to make 4.25” x 5.5” cards (since they fit so nicely in envelopes that the post office will mail with a standard stamp) but sometimes just a little card you…
Christmas Eve was the start of a wonderful few days with my family; and so I’ll be busy with family dinners, gift exchanges, and playing with the kids. But I wanted to make sure to stop by and wish you all a very merry Christmas! Here is a card for all of you that I…
I have a friend who hosts Stampin’ Up! workshops for me from a couple states away (she lives in Colorado, I live in Washington), so I send her a project and some fun samples to share with her friends who come over to stamp. This time, I wanted to let everyone see what the new…
Just a reminder – today is the last day to get 31% off a ton of digital content and print orders. Even if you haven’t tried My Digital Studio yet, did you know that you can actually use the digital downloads in software you probably have on your computer already? * Digital content and images…
Can you tell, I like this stamp set? 🙂 I know, I get a little addicted to stamps that have matching punches; but it makes things come together so quickly! Well, for my recent show, I decided to make these easy little treats to hand out to people who stopped by my demonstrations. I put…
There is something about being a card maker that somehow has tweaked my brain to where I can never seem to let a package get mailed from my house without a card in it! Even if I’m ready to walk out the door to the post office, I have to walk through my craft room…
As I was putting together my Cards to Go kits for this month, I was trying to decide what to make for my third card. I had so many ideas but wanted something that would be a good balance for the set this time. So, as I was looking around for inspiration, I saw a…
Last weekend, I did a presentation at the Northwest Women’s Show that was based around the idea that you can take one of the many scrapbook sketches out there and use them even if you are not a scrapbooker. I don’t know about you, but while I like designing cards, sometimes my brain just isn’t…
Yesterday was the first day of the Northwest Women’s Show and the first of 3 days of presentations I’ll be running on the Home Style stage! It was a lot of fun and I’m excited to go back and share different projects for the next couple days. But I thought I would share the…
So, this is my last weekend to prep before the big Northwest Women’s Show here in Seattle. I’m grateful to have the opportunity to present a crafting demonstration on their Home Style stage on each of the 3 days; so I’ve been trying to square away exactly what I’m going to demo. Well, this is…
