Our Gingham Gala 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper has been very popular, so much so, that it’s been on backorder for quite some time. Now that it is due to be back in stock early next week, I’ve been enjoying making cards with this bright, cheerful paper! (more…)
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…)
Happy first day of spring!! Summer used to always be my favorite season but now it’s Spring. I love seeing new growth on all the trees and plants and watching the buds bloom. It feels like a brand new beginning! (more…)
I’m in the mood for spring and looking forward to warmer days! Our Gingham Gala Designer Series Paper paired with the Vibrant Vases stamp set just screams spring to me! (more…)
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.
You can also watch a step by step video for making these flowers by clicking here!
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…)

It’s Friday! I hope you have plans for the weekend that involve play and/or relaxation!
Today’s card uses two designs from the Floral Romance Designer Series Paper and an embossed piece of Pear Pizzazz cardstock. I have to admit that combining two different pieces of Designer Series Paper is out of my comfort zone but I’m pretty happy with how these two printed designs look together. (more…)
Today is a two card day! This week I’ve been showcasing Stampin’ Up! Floral Romance Designer Series Paper. When I created both of today’s cards last weekend, I had no idea that the Wonderful Floral Framelits Dies, used to create the leaves, would be sold out before I could share them. If you were unable to purchase the dies, another option for creating leaves is our Sprig Punch or the Frosted Bouquet Framelits Dies. (more…)
Unfortunately several Big Shot Framelits Dies have sold out or are nearing sold out status.
