Define Old

This card was based on a colour challenge from SCS last week – using Kraft, Baja Breeze and Not Quite Navy. You may recognize the design a bit as I did a card just like this with the word “love” a few days back. Truth be told, I did this one first but the card [...]

Nope, never too old!

WOW Flowers is a great stamp set but sometimes I forget about using it but not this time. This week’s colour challenge on Splitcoast Stampers was to use Garden Green, Baja Breeze and Pacific Point. From that scheme I instantly thought of a retro feel and so the round floral stamp from WOW Flowers was what [...]

It’s All Fun and Games….

There are certain bloggers that when first starting out, I looked to for ideas and to learn all about the strange world of blogging. One that I pretty much stalked was AmyR and for good reason. She has an amazing blog at Prairie Paper & Ink, is immensely talented and is a good Canadian kid [...]

Rockin’ the Challenges

So tonight I have a Stamp Club meeting here and should really be preparing my room but instead, I decided to get challenged with a card challenge. But, I couldn’t just pick one so I did three!
This week’s Technique Challenge on SCS is paper pleating. This is an awesome little extra you can add to [...]

Sunday Fun

Today my in-laws took my two kiddos out to celebrate Chinese New Year at a local dim sum restaurant – I can’t wait to hear the stories of what they ate, or did not eat. 
So, with a quiet house, I got some time to craft! Yeah! I decided to head on over to SCS for [...]

I still Love You Much

I don’t think I’ve shown this card up close yet….if I have, SORRY!
This is one of my last creations for my free class using the Love You Much Bundle.
I started with a Chocolate Chip base and layered a strip of the Candy Lane DSP along one side and I tied over the seam with some [...]

Notebook Challenge & a Must Read!

This week, Pam and I have got a great Notebook Challenge on 3D Design Challenge – go and check it out and hopefully you’ll play along.
For this little notebook, I actually made a false cover using a piece of heavy duty cardboard and my Top Note die with Sizzix Big Shot. I then covered that [...]

Paris Hilton Scrapbooking?

WOW! I laughed for quite some time after I read this and didn’t think it was true…but apparently it is!

The Countdown is ON!

I am super excited that the new Spring/Summer Idea Book and Catalogue will be launching later today! 
As Stampin’ Up! has to transition all the amazing new items into their online ordering system, the new book will go live at 12 noon MST. At that time, I will post a link on my sidebar as well [...]

One Last Challenge!

Thought I’d try to squeeze one more entry in for Kristina’s Colour Inspiration Challenge this weekend.
The card base is Pretty In Pink and it is layered with a piece of Summer Picnic Designer paper (with a Ruby Red layer underneath). I corner rounded two corners of this layer and added two Ruby Red brads. I [...]
