Bell Rings in Razzleberry

December 24, 2020 in , , ,

Merry Christmas Eve friend! One more Christmas card to share with you before the big day. This card features the Christmas Means More stamp set and the 'Tis The Season designer series paper. Using a colour not listed on the designer series paper is a great way to make your image or sentiment pop! On this card I've used Rich Razzleberry. And do you see those Iridescent Pearls? They are green or purple or blue depending on the light! A great edition to this card.

Colour Combo Blog Hop - December

December 13, 2020 in , , , , ,

Welcome! December's Colour Combo is Gray Granite, Real Red and Cinnamon Cider. A great combo for Christmas an many other projects.
Can you smell the cinnamon when you use Cinnamon Cider cardstock or ink? It makes me think of apple cider simmering on the stove with cinnamon sticks. Yum! Maybe I should heat some up today. Do you have a warm drink you like to drink during the cooler months? It would be neat to hear about your favourite that I could try.

Christmas Means More in Gold

December 12, 2020 in , , , , ,

Have you noticed the Gold Cards & Envelopes in the Aug-Dec Mini Catalogue? I love the gold design on the cards. A great base for Christmas cards! Keep in mind that these Gold Cards & Envelopes are retiring and only available while supplies last. Don't your love the saying on this card? The Christmas Means More stamp set is a great set with seasonal sentiments. In the card above its stamped with Memento black ink with the ivy coloured in with Stampin' Blends.

Snowflakes in Wood

November 22, 2020 in , , , , , ,

The snow started to fall this afternoon! It's very pretty when I can sit in my craft room, watch it collect on the truck in the driveway and don't have to leave the house. Have you had your first snow storm of this season? Days like today was my inspiration when stamping the snowflakes onto the wood design paper from the In Good Taste designer series paper. The snowflakes are from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set, stamped using Versamark ink and heat set with Whisper White embossing powder.

Pretty Cards and Paper Blog Hop - Forever Fern

November 20, 2020 in , , , , , , ,
 
Welcome to October's Pretty Cards & Paper Blog Hop and thank you for stopping by! This month we are using the Forever Fern designer series paper.

Some of the designs of the Forever Fern DSP work really well for Christmas like the piece on my card. I think it looks like a waterfall or tall grass. The In The Pines bundle is a good way to make some beautiful cards for Christmas or for other occasions.

A Curvy Merry Christmas

October 20, 2020 in , , , , , , ,

For this card I drew inspiration for one of Stampin' Up!'s Artisan Design Team - Nina Waldschmidt. I love her card with all the layers but I wanted to show a simpler card. I pulled some of the colours from the Classic Christmas designer series paper - Sahara Sand and Shaded Spruce and added Pool Party! I'm so not ready for winter but I love this colour combo as it makes me think of snowy days. The Curvy Celebrations bundle is available for demonstrators to order now! And will be available for customers to order from Nov 3 to Jan 4. The Quite Curvy stamp set and matching Curvy dies are an early release from the Jan-Jun 2021 Mini Catalogue while the Curvy Christmas stamp set and the Classic Christmas designer series paper are exclusive and limited time offerings until Jan 4.

I shared how to create this card during my Facebook live last week. The video is below if you missed watching it. Join me this Thursday at 7pm for my next live at https://www.facebook.com/FromWhereIStamp

Stocking Team Swap

October 17, 2020 in , , , , ,

I had fun creating this card for a recent team swap! This stamp set has a variety of stocking images and also includes some stamps to ink up the images as well. I've used the dots with Real Red ink on the cuff of the stocking. I fussy cut the stocking and glued it onto the Whisper White piece that is layered on a die-cut Mossy Meadow Stitched Rectangle.
The A Merry Hello stamp set is a host set that you can earn free either by placing a $200 before shipping and taxes order or host a qualifying party.

Pretty Cards and Paper Blog Hop - Heartwarming Hugs

October 16, 2020 in , , , ,
Hello and welcome! This month's Pretty Cards & Paper blog hop is featuring either the Heartwarming Hugs or the Snowflake Splendor designer series paper. I've used the Heartwarming Hugs DSP for my project today.
The Peace & Joy stamp set has bold images that work so well with the Heartwarming Hugs DSP. The hardest part was selecting which piece of paper to use from this pack! My card is a CASE (copy and share everything!) of a card in the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue. You can find the original sample on page 104. The DSP was cut to 5-3/8" x 3", the Whisper White stamped piece was cut to 5-1/8" x 2-3/4" and the Real Red cardstock is 2-1/8" x 1/2". I love getting inspiration from the catalogues. If you ever get stuck wondering how a project is made in any of our catalogues please contact me and I can look it up for you!
Both packs of designer series paper we are featuring this month are included in the 15% off sale along with many of my favourites! View what's on sale here until Oct 31: https://www.stampinup.ca/categories/sales-specials/designer-series-paper-sale?dbwsdemoid=2157916

Leaves of Thanks - Kylie's International Blog Highlights

October 05, 2020 in , , , , ,
Welcome to my blog! I'm excited to participate in Kylie's Monthly International blog highlights again. You'll find the button a little further in my blog post that will take you to Kylie's blog where you can vote for your top 5 favourites.
Thanksgiving here in Canada is about a week away. I know this year we aren't having big family dinners. Instead I'm sending out cards as a way to say hi and to let people know I'm thinking of them. This card will be one of them!  Autumn is my favourite time of the year so the Plaid Tidings designer series paper and the Gather Together bundle are some of my favourites in the Aug-Dec 2020 Mini Catalogue. My card uses Merry Merlot, Rich Razzelberry and Bumblebee colour combo.
If you have a moment please vote for my card and check out all the other great projects! Click here to vote. The top 10 winners of this vote will participate in an International Blog Hop later this month.

This card is so fun and easy to make! The snowmen are already decorated and ready to attach to a card! You can find these designs in the Let It Snow specialty designer series paper. The designer series paper was cut at 2-3/4" in height and then at 5-1/2" wide. You can get 8 cards from each 12"x12" sheet for a total of 16 cards using this snowman design.
