So, as I was posting January's Sampler kit on Monday, it occurred to me that I didn't recall posting December's Sampler kit. I checked and I had not posted December's kit. Oops! Better late than never, here is December's Sampler - Jolly. I love the simplicity and colors of this kit. I have plenty of this Sampler in stock. The kit is $15 and the stand is an additional $3. Postage is an extra $4 for first class mail if you need it … [Read more...] about December Sampler-Jolly

January Sampler-Polar Pals
January's Sampler Kit is called Polar Pals. This one is dedicated to some of my favorite Winter animals.. a Polar Bear, a Narwhal, and a Penguin. I had so much fun working on these fun animals. And how cool is it that Stampin Up sells all the products to create these animals! Our whale and penguin punches are still available for the sale, the polar bear dies just retired. I seriously love these adorable animals. It's hard to tell in the … [Read more...] about January Sampler-Polar Pals
December Paper Pumpkin-Lots of Pun
I don't know about all of you, but 2021 was a rough year for me between work and personal issues. December's Paper Pumpkin kit was the perfect bit of lightheartedness to finish out the year.

I see a ton of potential with making other cards with the sentiments in this kit... have an egg-cellent dayegg-cited for youA toast to … [Read more...] about December Paper Pumpkin-Lots of Pun
Awesome Otters
One of the cutest stamp sets in the Sale-a-Bration Catalog is the Awesome Otters. I just love this little guy swimming around in the water. To make this card, I stamped the otter in Bermuda Bay directly on top of the pattern paper. Then I stamped him a second time in black Memento ink on white card stock. I colored the image on the white card stock with our Blends markers, and then cut him out. I was able to layer it right over the top of the … [Read more...] about Awesome Otters
A Rainbow of Happiness
I just cannot resist the fun Sunshine & Rainbows paper in the new Sale-a-Bration catalog. I love the bright, fun colors. Sometimes, bright patterns are tough to use though because they can overwhelm your project. An easy way to fix that is to use a piece of vellum over the top of the print. You still get the bright pattern, but it's softened just enough that it's not overwhelming. My rainbow isn't very rainbow-y since I used the same … [Read more...] about A Rainbow of Happiness

Sunshine & Rainbows
One of my favorite products in the Sale-a-Bration Catalog is the Sunshine & Rainbows pattern paper. This was actually the first item in my cart! I love the bright, fun, bold patterns. Sometimes they are a bit of challenge to use though because a whole card front of a bold pattern can overwhelm whatever you're putting on the front of the card. This pattern paper coordinates with the Rainbow of Happiness of bundle in the January-June … [Read more...] about Sunshine & Rainbows
