I’m still creating cards for Thanksgiving and fall birthdays using my retired DSP. This wonderful fall plaid is from the Happy Haunting DSP. What? Yes, it’s from a Halloween paper set. If you turned the black dot side over you have entirely different theme with this fun plaid! That’s what I love about Stampin’ Up! double-sided […]

Swirly Scribbles for Fall
I’m trying to make myself create fall card instead of Christmas cards (I love Christmas!), so this weekend’s SGGWWC was a good template for that. I used fall colors, Soft Suede, Tangerine Twist (retired in-color), Early Expresso and Cajun Craze, the fall colors in the north, but definitely not here in southern Texas! We still have […]
Fall Suite Seasons-MOJO468
This week’s challenges on a number of the websites I follow have been awe-inspiring! I’ve made a number of cards for various challenges, all have been Christmas cards. But I needed some fall cards, and this week’s MOJO468 challenge seemed to shout “fall card” to me. I used Tangerine Tango for the card base with pieces from […]
Pyramid Pals for the Holidays!
I fell in love with the Pyramid Pals thinlits when they came out in the annual catalog, but they’ve been languishing on my craft table waiting for a spark of inspiration. I really wasn’t a fan of the animals it made (even though they are cute), but I just knew it would make some great gift packaging […]
Today’s the day…Holiday catalog is live!!
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…for creativity! Oh the fun, oh the surprise, oh so many cool things in the new Holiday Catalog! I’m so glad that as a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator I got to order the new things early and play with them. Many of my projects over the last couple of weeks used […]
Another simple card makes a big statement
After finishing all my gift box ideas, I’ve been playing with my new BigShot dies from Stampin’ Up! (since I finally got my big order!). This is another of those quick and easy cards that has been bouncing around my head just waiting for my Botanical Builder dies. A Whisper white card base, a piece […]
What about those Fall pictures – where are they now?
Now that you have everything ordered to get your Christmas and Holiday pictures into albums, why not think about all those pictures from this past fall – Halloween, Pumpkin Patch picking a great pumpkin, Thanksgiving. Don’t those photos also deserve getting into an album?! Here’s a great card set that will do just that, and it even has some […]
Happy Thanksgiving to all

Rain, Rain, come again – I need more crafting time
It was a rainy, rainy weekend. Oh drat, that meant I just had I “had” to stay inside and spend 2 days in my craft room – LOL. Yes, it was torture – NOT, because I had lots of creative time! I’ve had all kinds of card and box ideas that had been swirling in my mind […]
