I showed this card in my embossing folders video (you can see it here) but I realized that I never showed the card in a post. The center of my flower was made using a flattened Soda Pop Top (#129388 $3.95 for 8 of each size) in the Spring Catalog! I simply placed one in my Big Shot and it quickly and beautifully flattened it! It gives my card such a pretty sparkle. I really wasn’t drawn to these when I first saw them but I just love them now! Isn’t that the way it always is?
My paper, Print Poetry Designer Series Paper Pack, is also from the Spring Catalog. My flower and the strip of paper under the DSP is Raspberry Ripple, one of our In Colors.
Thanks so much for stopping by! If you would like to order any of these products, you can visit my

Welcome to the fourth installment of my series, “Spotlight on Tools.” This week I am focusing on Stampin’ Up! Clear Mount Stamp Cases (#119105 $5.95 for a package of 4). These are great for storing stamps that you’ve converted from wood to clear. I also store my single stamps from the recent promotions in these as well since they do not come in a case.
The Stamp Cases are also perfect for storing Framelits. I used a different designer series paper for each one and slipped it between the “cover” and the actual case. Because the case is clear, I can see the other side of the paper on the inside. I bought some magnet sheets from a home improvement store (they are covers for heater registers), cut them down to the size I wanted and placed the magnet on one side of the case using Sticky Strip. In the last picture you can see that I put the packaging on the left hand side but I only included that with a few of my sets. I have an electronic label maker and put a label on the end of the case so that I can quickly see the set names. I am so much happier with this system and it has definitely saved time!
If you’ve struggled with a way to organize your Framelits, I hope this will work for you!!

Today I have a basket that could be used for any occasion. My Easter basket was made using the Bigz Scallop Envelope die. Yes, the die is meant to be used as an envelope but when you attach four of them together, you get this cute little basket!! You can see the actual die below. I cut out four of them and then trimmed off one of the flaps. Then I laid them side by side and attached them together with Sticky Strip! So easy! I also used Sticky Strip on each of the scalloped flaps. I couldn’t decide whether to leave them up or adhere them but ended up with them flat.
If you have this die, why don’t you pull it out and give it a try? Or, you can purchase one at my online store by simply clicking HERE.
Thank you for stopping by!
