Hi Stampers, who’s ready to go somewhere tropical?  I am!!  Unfortunately, we are all on lock down, so I had to settle for virtual travel via the Timeless Tropical stamp set.

This card starts with an Old Olive card base. A layer of Pear Pizazz was dry embossed using the recently retired Coastal Weave 3D Embossing Folder.  Then it was adhered to the card base using Stampin’ Seal.

The flower was…

Hi Stampers. Today’s card features the First Frost Bundle, which is another very pretty set retiring at the end of this month.  😦

This card starts with a Gorgeous Grape card base and then a layer of watercolor paper.  I used Balmy Blue ink and the Aqua Painter to create this watercolor wash technique for the background.  Next, I stamped a few of the greenery and then did lots of layering of…

PPP Blog Hop My Wonderful Family

Hi Stampers.  It’s time for another Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop.  To be honest, this months kit didn’t thrill me until I started thinking of alternatives.  Then I got a few ideas and couldn’t pick just one.  So today I have three cards for you!

My first thought was to turn that tree (from this months Paper Pumpkin kit) on it’s side and made it into a branch.  I used the 1-1/8″ scallop…

Hi Stampers, do you have some friends or family who are “On To Adventure” in retirement?  If they are headed somewhere tropical, I may have just the card!  This fun fold card features the corner tuck technique.

This card starts with an Old Olive base and then a beach scene was made using Balmy Blue and Crumb Cake CS.  The palm trees, from the Timeless Tropical stamp set, were inked using…

Hi Stampers, how is your quarantine going? I have spent most of it making cards and helping my husband with his new laser engraving machine.  When my friend Lorri Heiling made a card using This Little Piggy and adding a face mask to it – I knew I just HAD to try it!

I started with a Balmy Blue card base.  This color blue looked perfect for the sky on a sunny day. One of the dies from the…

Tea Together for Mother’s Day

Hi Stampers. Mother’s Day is right around the corner – wouldn’t it be wonderful to have tea together?  Today’s card features the Tea Together stamp set and coordinating Tea Time Dies.

The Soft Sea Foam is a color I haven’t used much, but it sure made a soft and pretty look for this card. I started with a Soft Sea Foam card base and embossing a layer of Soft Sea Foam CS using the tufted embossing…

Hi Stampers.  A few tulips and daffodils popped up in our yard and we had a few warms days last week and I had hope that Spring was coming…  But, alas, Monday we has flurries of snow and today we are told to expect a high of 44 and rain.  Ugh!  A bright a cheery card was just what the doctor ordered!  I received this adorable card from Melinda Matthews, she is a demonstrator on my Creative…

Happy Easter my stamper friends. I hope you are able to enjoy your quarantined Easter. Today I’m sharing this adorable punch art bunny that I made at a demonstrator event in Boise a few months ago.

This cute bunny basket is made using Stampin’ Up! cardstock, punches, ink and our clear tiny treat boxes (2″ x 2″ cube). The base shape and ears are punched from Smoky Slate CS using the scallop heart…
