Hello my stampin’ friends!

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Stamping Friends challenge!

Here is this week’s new layout challenge to spark your creativity –

I created a whimsical Santa card with this layout –

I always make some sort of Santa card every year. This offset gatefold made for a very cute one this year!

…..and this pattern from the Take A Bow Designer Series Paper is just the sweetest!

Santa’s belt is simply a punched Modern Oval shape in Silver Foil with a strip of Basic Black through the center.

Bye Bye – Create with Stamping Friends Saturday Blog Hop

April 13, 2024 · 4 Comments

Welcome stampers!

Thank you for joining us for our weekly Create with Stamping Friends Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week is retiring products we will miss.

Where do I begin? I am always very sad to see all these wonderful products retire, but equally as happy to see new products as join us! It keeps the creative juices going!

I am sad to be losing an unusual staple, these Stitched With Whimsy Dies –

Look closely at the card and you can see the dashed line on the right side –

They are sooo subtle but add just a little something to cards to elevate their look. I recommend grabbing them as they are marked down to $17.40, from $29. That is a huge savings!

Of course, this Let’s Go Fishing Designer Series Paper is ~~retiring~~, sold out, as most DSP’s retire when a new catalog comes out.

I will also miss this newly acquired, Filled With Happiness stamp. I hardly had anytime to get to know it. It is pretty cool how the Modern Oval Punch fits so well with it. I recommend grabbing both this stamp and punch (not retiring) before they are not available.

The inside of this card is pretty nifty too –

All in all, this is simple a wonderful masculine or fish lover card! Wouldn’t you agree?

Go forward to check out Melissa Davies, and back to Cindy Elam. I know they’ll have some great ideas for us!

We will see you next week with more great inspirations in card making!

Birthday Happiness

February 17, 2024 · 10 Comments

Happy stampin’ my friends!

Thanks for joining us today!

Our theme today is birthday!

I just love this cheery cherry pattern from the Sunny Days Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper. I thought it’d make a great birthday card –

I used the Filled With Happiness stamp set that coordinates with the Modern Oval Punch! Of course, I threw in the Cherry Builder punch too! Because it matches soo well!

This layout is fun and happy! Not to mention simple! Love a great go-to layout!

What is Old is New Again

January 6, 2024 · 9 Comments

Happy stampin’ my friends!

As we start a new year, I am trying to get reacquainted with old friends! These stampers are some of the best!

Our theme today is basically something old, redone with new products. Here is my older project –

Here is my recreation of it using some Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper as the focal point –

Pretty cool I’d say. We always need masculine cards and this is perfect!

I used the Modern Oval Punch for the sentiment again as it works so well and is still current. To get the nifty pieces behind it, I used the Curved Label Punch. This is how I did it –

This is simply a great card!

You can choose this Trusty Toolbox Designer Series Paper or any of the other terrific items during Sale-a-bration.

Red & Green Christmas with Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop

December 9, 2023 · Leave a Comment

Welcome stampers!

Thank you for joining us for our weekly Create with Connie and Mary Saturday blog hop!

Our theme this week is features red and green Christmas card.

I created a gift card holder to be featured at my Giftables Class on Sunday –

This uses several products to make this quick and easy. I started with the Classic Gift Card Envelopes from the mini catalog. FYI, they are retiring and are on sale!

I added a simple little santa suit using the Modern Oval Punch in Poppy Parade. The buckle on the belt uses the Best Label Punch.

I decided to open the envelope so the flap gives a little more room to stamp. I added To From from the Sending Cheer Stamp set. The Santa Was Here comes from the Merry Bold & Bright stamp set.

I used a hole punch to punch a hole in the top of the flap to hang this on the tree. The Simply Elegant trim is great for making tags!

These are some awesome little envelopes to have in your stash! Grab them before they are gone for good!

Go forward to check out Debbie Henderson, and back to Cindy Elam. I know they’ll have some great ideas for us!

We will see you next week with more great inspirations in card making!

We Create – Merry Wishes

December 1, 2023 · 1 Comment

Happy December 1st!

Starting the month off with a mini blog hop with the talent of We Create!

Our theme this month is Warm Wishes!

What better warmth than to receive a simply beautiful Christmas card?

I featured the Modern Garden Designer Series Paper along with the Modern Garden Bundle for this pretty card.

What is better, is that when you open it, it is a gift card holder too!

This is a simple style gift card holder that can be whipped up at the last minute if need be.

The accent of the Gold & Vanilla ribbon just takes the card up a notch!

Check out the other ladies and leave a compliment – the best way to start off the month!

We Create – Gratitude & Gatherings

November 1, 2023 · 3 Comments

Happy November 1st!

Time for some inspration with the We Create team. Out theme today is Gratitude & Gatherings.

I design a cute, fun, and elegant card for this hop –

Right? A little of everything but it works!

I’ll refer to this as my ‘kitchen sink’ card as I used everything on this card it seemed!

To create this card, I started with a Countryside Corners Dies cut shape using the Shining Brightly Designer Series Paper. I just love this pattern!

Next, I cut a Deckled Rectangles shape, embossing it with the Countryside Blooms Embossing Folder as I thought the pattern was similar with the curls.

I stamped and punched my sentiment.

I was stumped at that point, so I made the sentiment into a pumpkin! I added a leaf from the Autumn Leaves Dies and a ‘tendril’ from the Merry & Bright Dies.

Whew. Off to clean my desk after this! Lol!

Check us all out! Leave some kind words as we love to read your comments.

Share It Sunday – Crafty Collaboration – Let’s Eat Cake

October 29, 2023 · 8 Comments

Happy Sunday!

How about lots of crafty inspiration for you today? You’re about to see it with our Crafty Collaborations blog hop today!

I designed this card for my October Card Buffet –

I love everything about this card, the layout, the Designer Series Paper, and the versatility of creating two different cards! This is the other design option –

Just as lovely!

Now, at the class, some just loved the floral pattern soo much, they made the whole card with the florals layers – also very pretty. Going with all polka dot pattern would have created a masculine card. Also a great option!

Which is your favorite?

Leave a comment and let me know before heading to the next lovely project!
