Hello my crafting friends, Happy New Year! With the new year, brings new products. You will be amazed at all the new products being introduced on Jan 7th which include the new Jan – April Mini Catalogue, a new scrapbooking brochure and the Sale-a-bration brochure which I know will get your creative juices flowing through the winter. Before we get to that, I would like to take a moment to thank…

Sadly, the September–December 2024 Mini Catalogue will be retiring soon, and it is always sad to see favourite Stampin’ Up! products retire for good. At the same time, I look forward to seeing all the new products coming out in the new year. I hope you feel the same way!

I decided to use the adorable Bee Mine suite of products to make up a tunnel card. From the outside it looks like a regular card but the tunnel card allows a fun 3D effect on the card when you open it. To make this…

This is just one way how we can learn from easy other or get inspired. I recently saw a card on Pinterest which was made by Jamie (https://.stampinupwithjamie.cm) back in Dec 2023.
