I love the simplicity of this fun fold. I handed the inspiration card to hub and he didn't get it at first. That is my only concern with the fancy/fun folds, whether the recipient can operate the card or will they never open it and discover what is inside. I give a demo using the new Stampin' Up! trimmer, that now is not so new. It is a very functional tool and I appreciate the little details...
Boy do I get tunnel vision when I craft. I said I would have this posted on Wednesday, however it was moving day so of course I did not get this video up until Thursday. How could I forget moving day!
We did get settled in at our favorite coastal Thousand Trails and this time we took a middle end site which gives me a panoramic view of the slough. After many days of rain, we expected to...
With all this rain I am so appreciating creating cards! Today's video showcases three avid cards made using the Hydrangea Haven bundle and I used two of the three stamped focals I created in the previous video (linked below). I use the Take Your Pick tool extensively throughout the video. It is a key tool for working with intricate paper projects.
Part two will finish up the final three...
In this video I stamp three focals and then show a couple of ways to finish each one. Part 2 will continue on to more casual and avid projects using the stamps and dies.
This new fun fold project is loaded with Valentine goodness. The talk cloud sentiment is a custom combination from two stamps in A Touch Of Ink (FREE Sale-A-Bration Item with $100 product purchase through 2/28) of the "Love" sentiment with just the word "You" from the "Thinking of You" sentiment. Be sure to check out my current products sentiments search tool to assist you in finding the...
I love this technique. It is very quick and easy, but you can also take alot of time tweaking it because you are using 140lb watercolor paper which can handle alot of layers of water. I was going to just demo this technique, but decide in the end to finish the project so I can talk about other tips and tricks to making the card and I can compare it to the first card I made.
I always enjoy the Valentine's Paper Pumpkin kit. This year's edition is perhaps a little better than most because I like all of the stamps! I share many easy-peasy techniques, tips and extra supply options to get the most out of the materials. I also love that we received the ribbon on a spool which means there was ALOT of it and that it has no folds in it, woohoo!
I am finally out of space in my special cards received box (Which is every card I receive - I keep them all!). Today's video shows what I plan to do to create more room. I reveal special cards and then I show the completed project.
The main image today is a closeup of one of my favorite cards and I also share it in the video. Thank you all who have sent me cards while I travel, they...

Here's a fun one! Libby and I CASEd this pin-> link. I changed the colors, trim and die cut arrangement. It is amazing how many multiples of three make this card.
and me being a...
