Last month, I shared that Stampin Up released their very first advent calendar this year. I haven't had a chance to really share what's inside before today. This is what the inside of the box looks like. The calendar is filled with craft supplies. I've only opened a few doors so far, but here's what I've received: a stamp set, matching dies, stencils and a mini blending brush, 6x6 pattern paper, gems, and some paper tags. These products … [Read more...] about Stampin Up’s Advent Calendar

Harvest Home Garland
I finally got a chance to finish up the Harvest Home Garland. It took me hours to hot glue all the leaves on the vine. I was trying to keep the leaf shape and colors random, but it's harder than it looks. I ended up with about 20 or so leaves leftover by the time I reached the end of the vine. I added them to fill in wherever I could find space. Once all the leaves were in, I added the pinecones as the last step. This is what the … [Read more...] about Harvest Home Garland

Happy Halloween!
Last month, I shared a framed Halloween project. You can see it below. I really like this project, but it was time consuming to make since I stamped and colored the animals in it. I knew I could make a version of this that would be quicker and easier to replicate. The pattern paper in the Spooky Sweet Suite included a sheet of the characters already colored. This made it so much easier to put this together. Now that we've made it to … [Read more...] about Happy Halloween!
Harvest Home Garland
Stampin Up released the Harvest Home kit a couple months ago and I finally had a chance to start the kit. This kit makes a Fall garland that's approximately 5.5' long. You will need a hot glue gun to assemble this kit. The kit comes with dozens of leaves in about 10 colors. It also comes with a dozen acorns to sprinkle throughout the banner. After you punch out all the leaves from the sheets, you will want to fold the leaves in half to add … [Read more...] about Harvest Home Garland

Gathering Moments
The Gathering Moments bundle is one of the items from our Online Exclusives. Our Online Exclusives are items that are released online rather than in one of our catalogs. Stampin Up started releasing extra products online a couple years ago. This means they can release more new products every year. Hooray! I typically select one Fall themed bundle each year and this is the one I chose. At the time, I didn't realize the large leaf dies are … [Read more...] about Gathering Moments
Spooky
Back today with another Spooky Sweet card. This time I used the pattern paper to create a trick or treat scene. The sheet with the doors and windows makes a great background. My three little critters are hand cut from one of the sheets of pattern paper. I'm really tickled by the fancy flamingo. She's just the cutest.
