I'm so excited to release this month's Sampler kit, Road Trip! There's just something amazing about loading up the car and hitting the road for parts unknown. Traveling by car allows you to see everything along the way to your destination. All those fun last minute road-side stops just make the trip even better. As they say in life, it's about the journey, not the destination. For this Sampler, I left both the highway number sign and the … [Read more...] about August Sampler-Road Trip
Merry… Christmas?
What? Too soon? I know, I've raced by Fall and I'm now on to Christmas. Actually, not really. It's just this one card. I found one very similar to this on Stampin Up's Facebook group and I love the simplicity of it. This uses the tree rings from the Rings of Love pattern paper, which I cut out. Then I stamped the leaves and die cut more leaves and the berry springs to go with it. The Rings of Love paper is one of the free Sale-a-bration … [Read more...] about Merry… Christmas?
Easing Into Fall
I'm seeing lots of posts about back to school. It's hard to believe that Fall is right around the corner. If I didn't see all the school supplies and pumpkins at the local stores, I don't think I'd believe it since we've been having a heat wave here. Since Fall is almost upon us, I thought I'd start sharing some Fall projects with you. Today's project uses the Ringed With Nature bundle and the free coordinating Rings of Love Sale-a-bration … [Read more...] about Easing Into Fall
July Paper Pumpkin-Sending Good Thoughts
Happy Monday! Today I'm sharing the July Paper Pumpkin kit. I wanted to be sure to share this fabulous kit with you before the 10th, which is the cut-off date to subscribe to get the August kit. I absolutely love the nautical theme of July's kit. The beautiful coral, the amazing colors, and the amazing sailing ship - wow! The cards in this kit are stunning. And this is a sneak peak of August's kit, Sweet Sunflowers. The August kit will have … [Read more...] about July Paper Pumpkin-Sending Good Thoughts
Flowers For You
Today I have another project using the Bottled Happiness bundle. This time I used the vintage bottle domes with the effervescent elements inside. The effervescent elements look like little bubbles inside the jar. I struggled on where to put a sentiment on this card. I didn't want to cover up the flowers or the bottle. Then I remembered how a lot of times a flower bouquet will include a pic inside of it with the little card attached. I tried … [Read more...] about Flowers For You

Stampin Up just released some new Sale-a-bration products for us for the last month of Sale-a-bration. These ten new items are actually products in our Catalog.

Bottled Happiness
One of the fabulous new sets in this year's Annual Catalog is Bottled Happiness. This set has this great old fashioned bottle in it plus the pretty flowers and leaves stamp set. One great thing about this set is that the flowers and the leaves are separate stamps. This makes it easier to stamp both of them in different colors. I used this particular card in one of my recent customer thank you cards not too long ago. I send thank you cards … [Read more...] about Bottled Happiness
Ale Yes It’s Friday!
We're celebrating the end of the work week with a nice cold one. Who wouldn't love a giant frosty cold mug of this refreshing beverage? I love the over-flowing foam on this giant mug of beer. This card would be perfect for cheering someone on, or congratulating them on an accomplishment. You could even use this to celebrate a birthday. The options are endless. Cheers! Brewed For You Bundle (English) - 159093 Price: … [Read more...] about Ale Yes It’s Friday!
