The Taco Fiesta stamp is perfect for those who loves tacos! It includes images for chips & salsa, guacamole, avocado, jalapeno and even a piƱata with candy you can add! And the sayings are just so punny. Such as the one used on my card, You're NACHO average friend. You can paid this stamp set with a label die set such as the All That dies or use a rectangle shape instead if you don't own a Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine. This card was created using one of my 3 card sketches PDF. You can receive the 3 card sketches for free by subscribing to my email list here: http://Subscribe.FromWhereIStamp.ca.

Make A Classic Card with the He's All That Bundle

in Birthday, card, die cutting, Embossing Folder, Stampin' Cut & Emboss
A great person should receive a puny card on their birthday, right? Along with this fun colour combo of Parakeet Party, Tahitian Tide and Mango Melody it's a fun way to send birthday wishes. The He's All That stamp set and All That dies paired with the Hive 3D embossing folder were used to create this card. And if you scroll down you'll find a list of products with links to my online store to purchase. I'm loving the All That dies for the label and the flags dies, there are many uses for these dies not just to coordinate with the stamp set but they will work with many other stamp sets as well.
In Colors and Stampin' Up!'s He's The Man Suite

in Birthday, card, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, Stampin' Cut & Emboss, Suites, Videos
Stampin' Up!'s He's The Man Suite is full of fun pattern paper, dies and stamps with great sayings on them! While this suite says "he" you could definitely use it for anyone. This card doesn't have to be for the guy in your life as the sentiment reads "ever day with you is another adventure". My head is full of ideas for scrapbook pages of travels with my dog, my mom and my husband. Can you think of someone that sentiment would be a great fit?

Are you a new stamper or someone who is still building their crafting stash? In this blog post I share a few tips on what products you should have in your crafting stash. These are a few items I use every time I create:
- Simply Shammy - needs only water to clean your stamps

- Basic White 8 1/2" X 11" Cardstock

New Product - Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper
May 03, 2022
in Birthday, card, Designer Series Paper, Variety
Ever looked at the designs in a pack of designer series paper and knew you could create a beautiful bouquet? It's one of the reasons I purchased the Hues of Happiness designer series paper (DSP). Another was the backside of the DSP sheets. The rainbow and colourful designs are very pretty. And it has one of my favourite purples in it, Gorgeous Grape! Figured that if I didn't want to use many of the flowers I could at least use the opposite side for my projects.

Are you dreaming about summer weather? Today was absolutely gorgeous near Kingston, Ontario. High of 17 degrees Celsius and we had the windows open. Even had our 1st campfire tonight before I watched the season finale of Outlander. Summer vibes was why I purchased the Kite Delight stamp set. This stamp set makes me think of green open fields, bright blue skies and white puffy clouds. A perfect summer day!
How to use the Abstract Beauty Ephemera Pack
April 23, 2022
in Birthday, card, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, Techniques, Variety, Videos
I love when there are pre-designed embellishments that can be popped out and glued to my project using Mini Glue Dots or my favourite adhesive, the Multipurpose Liquid Glue. The Abstract Beauty Suite includes a Ephemera Pack.
The Abstract Beauty Suite is great for new and experienced stampers. Especially since it includes a cards & envelopes pack that includes 10 pre-printed cards and 10 envelopes that have pretty designs on the inside of them. You could cut apart the envelopes and use the designs on your cards instead of sheets from the Abstract Beauty designer series paper.
Celebration Card using Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper
April 19, 2022
in Birthday, card, Designer Series Paper
Have you tried stamping onto designer series paper? For this card you need one suite of products to create this card. Stampin' Up!'s Abstract Beauty Suite is fun and abstract-y. I know, not a word but it sounded good in my head. I'll just go with it. To create this card you could use the normal sized card base, which is half a sheet of cardstock but included in the Abstract Beauty Suite are the Abstract Beauty Cards & Envelopes. If you watch this Instagram Reel you can see that I started with one of the cards that has a black watercolour wash on it. For any of the cards you can either cover it up with pretty designer series paper (DSP) or add stamped image, pieces of DSP or die cut images.

Season's Blessing is Retiring
March 29, 2022
in card, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, Stampin' Cut & Emboss, Thank you, Variety
It's March and I'm still using Christmas inspired stamps and designer series paper! The main reason is to share with you that you can make a thankful card using the retiring Season's Blessings stamp set and Seasonal Basket dies and not make it Thanksgiving or Christmas related. The biggest choice you can make is when picking what colours you are going to create with. From the Tidings of Christmas designer series paper I chose Sahara Sand and Evening Evergreen. Then because it's spring I looked over the 10 colours in the Subtles Collection to see what would match. Sometimes I will stack the ink pads together to see what the colours look like but other times I'll pull pieces of cardstock from my file cabinet. Usually the cardstock is easier for me. From the Subtles this card has Calypso Coral and Soft Sea Foam. If you saw my card a few weeks ago you would've learned that Granny Apple Green is one of my least used colours and that applies to Calypso Coral too. Are there colours you won't use or have a hard time using?
Have you used a sketch before to create a card or scrapbook layout? Some sketches will have dimensions provided, like mine above, while others won't. You can peruse the 2021-2022 Annual Catalogue for card designs. These won't have sizes but you can use any catalogues for inspiration. Perhaps you'll discover a new project design or even a colour combination that you can try.
Rainbow Sweet Ice Cream Card
March 15, 2022
in Birthday, card, Punches, Techniques
Does this card make you think of Neapolitan Ice Cream? I can't have Neapolitan Ice Cream because one layer is strawberry and I'm allergic to strawberries! But that's ok, I love chocolate ice cream instead. What colours of ice cream would you make for the 3 scoops on this cone? You could even have sprinkles.
