As usual, I’m a little behind in playing with all my Stampin’ Up! goodies. In keeping with my 2021 resolutions, I pulled out my retired “For the Love of Felt” kit to create a swap card for one of my groups. The kit contains all the pieces I need to create 4 of several card […]
Surprise gate-fold Boho Indigo card
I’ve had the Stampin’ Up! Boho Indigo product medley since it first came out, but it was still sitting unopened in my craft area. After attending the “Creativate Winter 2021” online stamp retreat, I pulled out this suite to create a surprise gate-fold card demonstrated by Lisa Curcio. I’ve made gate fold cards before, but […]
Oh dear, another dear pet loss card for FMS470 challenge
I’m sad that for two weeks in a row I’m posting my FMS card as a pet condolence card. I hope that this doesn’t become a common occurrence. One of my sister’s dear dog Lacy finally left this world for pet heaven. Lacy was always racing around and so excited to see me even up […]
Dragonflies in Flower & Field DSP gift card
I occasionally need a gift card holder card and I’m always looking for new ways to create them. I learned a new one from the “Creativate Winter 2021” online stamping retreat I attended. Very interesting card. It was part of a “Mystery Stamp” session. In the past, I’ve been successful in creating a card I […]
Paper Blooms on slimline card

FMS469-Approaching Perfection for a birthday
I love the new Approaching Perfection stamp set from Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-Bration! I’ve used it on a number of cards already, and I’m sure it will be one of my most used stamp sets for a while! I waited for this week’s FMS469 so I could create another birthday card with this stamp set! Another […]
Oh So Ombre, perfect for a sympathy card
I talked to our old mail carrier the other day only to find that her disabled brother, who she was taking care of, had died. I expressed my condolences but wanted to make a card for her when she stops by to pick up old, used magazines that we always pass on to her. I […]
Another look at Dandy Garden suite
Today’s three cards were actually the first 3 I made using the Dandy Garden suite during Stampin’ Up!s virtual OnStage at home in November. We were able to purchase this was the stamp set to participate in a “Mystery Stamp.” Have you ever heard of or participated in a Mystery Stamp? I’ve just recently started […]
