Retiring Soon!

Every year five Stampin’ Up! colors retire and five new ones are introduced.  It’s always hard when you have to say goodbye to some of your favorites.  Although the Annual Catalog is available until June 3, 2019, many products will sell out once the retirement list is announced mid-April.  One of the first products to go will be the retiring In Colors.  Every single year, they sell out way before the end of the catalog.

One of the things I love about Stampin’ Up! is the color coordination. If there’s a color you love, you can rest assured that there will be a matching stamp pad, ink refills, cardstock, ribbon and markers!   (more…)

Dahlia Fold Flower – Picture Tutorial

Dahlia Fold Flower

I promised a picture tutorial for making a Dahlia Fold flower and today’s the day! Making these flowers is very addictive and so much fun.  I will say that at first, I got a little frustrated folding the tiny pieces but with practice it has turned from frustrating to fun. Practicing with larger circles is the key to getting the technique down.

Tomorrow my email subscribers will be receiving a PDF version of the directions for making the flower and the directions for today’s card. If you haven’t signed up yet be sure to do it today so you won’t miss out.  You can find the sign up form on the sidebar of my blog where it says “Keep in Touch.”  (more…)
