I've spent so much time with this little guy lately, I feel like I should name him. I'm thinking he looks like a Sam, Sam the Squirrel. The Fluffy Squirrel stamp set comes with two different squirrels. One fits the squirrel punch. This squirrel below faces the opposite direction and does not fit the punch but he is really easy to cut out with scissors. One of my favorite techniques with the squirrel stamp is that it has both an outline … [Read more...] about Go Nuts

Make It Your Own
One of the best kits in recent months is the Haunted House kit. This kit makes an adorable 3D haunted house. Here's a picture of the kit from the Stampin Up website. The kit looks great assembled just as the directions indicate. But... what if you did something a bit different with it? What could I transform this cute, simple house into? I made a base out of foam board and then covered it with air dry clay. Once the clay was dry, I used … [Read more...] about Make It Your Own

Scenic Pumpkin Patch
Happy Monday! I'm sharing another card using the Scenic Pumpkin Patch stamp set. But this time, I didn't use any of the pumpkin stamps.

Be sure to come back Wednesday to see the latest round of our "New at SU" blog hop. This time we're sharing products and projects … [Read more...] about Scenic Pumpkin Patch
At The Patch
One of my favorite Fall activities is visiting a pumpkin patch. I love checking out the pumpkins and corn mazes. And many of our local patches have a farmers market too with fresh produce. I can't resist taking home some pumpkins to add to my porch. The Scenic Pumpkin Patch stamp set has a bunch of individual stamps for you to design your own pumpkin patch. For example, the stems are a separate stamp from the pumpkins, and the fence is a … [Read more...] about At The Patch
