Most of what I share here is stamping or paper crafts related, but I do love making home decor items as well. I've been in the process of revamping my backyard space and realized I needed some kind of wall hanging to cover up a screw that was already in place. Honestly, it didn't occur to me to make something until I was roaming the aisles of a home store and couldn't find just the right thing. As I was staring at all the stuff, I realized I … [Read more...] about Crafts and Plants
Adventure Awaits
Last Friday, I shared the Beautiful World stamp set with a masculine theme. You can see it here. I promised I'd share a second card with this same Suite that's all decked out for the girl in your life. For today's card, I used Blushing Bride champagne to change the complete look of the card. My globe stand is die cut from our Champagne Foil paper, which also has a blush hue to it. And it matches our champagne rhinestones perfectly. The … [Read more...] about Adventure Awaits
World of Good
I love to travel. I could go somewhere every single month. There's nothing quite like the rush of running through an airport, taking off on a new adventure. I love seeing new sites and exploring new locations. One of my favorite new Suites from the new Annual Catalog is the World of Good Suite. It's got all sorts of fabulous travel stuff... the stamp set, the dies, the paper, and the embellishments. This card is definitely more masculine … [Read more...] about World of Good

Forever Fern
One of the stamp sets that we were allowed to purchase early is Forever Fern. At first glance, the stamp set isn't one of those that you immediately jump at. However, the different greenery comes together so beautifully. Plus the coordinating pattern paper is so pretty. Just take a look at this combination. This card is very similar to the one on Page 109 of the Annual Catalog. I love that the Catalog has such pretty projects that we can … [Read more...] about Forever Fern
And… we’re done!
Yesterday marks the end of another school year with two Graduations this Spring. With coronavirus and quarantine, we knew Graduation would look a little different with virtual ceremonies this year. Evan graduated with Honors while working two different jobs. I'm so proud of all the work he put in the last two years. His dedication to his education and his work ethic impress me every day. Here is a picture from his virtual Graduation. Evan … [Read more...] about And… we’re done!
Just Because…
Last week, I shared a photo of the brand new In Colors. You can see that picture here. Today, I'm sharing all five colors again, but this time decorated! Once again, from left to right, we have Bumblebee, Cinnamon Cider, Just Jade, Magenta Madness, and Misty Moonlight. That sunflower die is so pretty! It's a beautiful addition to any card or project. I just know this set is going to be super popular this year. Good thing it's going to be … [Read more...] about Just Because…
I Can Predict the Future…
I can totally predict the future! The Celebrate Sunflower bundle is going to be one of the hottest items in the new Stampin Up Catalog. Just look at these amazing dies! That sunflower is just amazing. Today's cards focus on two of the new In Colors... Magenta Madness and Misty Moonlight. At first glance, the Magenta Madness is a super bright color. Whoa. I think this color is going to be great in smaller quantities. The Misty Moonlight is … [Read more...] about I Can Predict the Future…
