There are so many cute options with these critters, it's hard to decide what to make first. What do you think? Party turtles or summer turtles? Comment below and I'll make that next! … [Read more...] about Turtles

With every new Annual Catalog, Stampin Up releases five new In Colors. These colors are meant to be on trend with current colors in home decor and design. This year, the new colors are Cloud Cover, Darling Duckling, Secret Sea, Strawberry Slush, and Timid Tiger. You might have noticed the ink pad is missing for Cloud Cover, the color on the top left. Stampin Up has determined that the ink pad for Cloud Cover is not producing consistent … [Read more...] about New In Colors

This is your last chance to get products that are retiring from the two Catalogs. And with the end of these two Catalogs, our new 2025-26 Annual Catalog starts tomorrow!

Here’s To 2025!

Hocus Pocus Part 2
In playing with the cauldron die, I thought it would be fun to make it into a 3D treat holder. I die cut two of the cauldrons, and then made a long strip that would fit between the two.

Basically, you made a long strip and score it .25" inches from each side so you have an area that you can glue to the front and the back. The box area in … [Read more...] about Hocus Pocus Part 2
Hocus Pocus
I know I share a version of this matchbook treat holder every year, and they are still just as popular as the first time I shared it. So, how can I not continue to share this project? This is what it looks like closed. Here is the open treat holder. The candy is stapled inside the treat holder to make sure it stays in place. I did some math and figured out a solution to maximize how many of these you can get out of a single 8.5x11 … [Read more...] about Hocus Pocus
