It’s Your Special day Cutest Cows fun fold

 Happy Saturday and welcome back to the blog.  I'm so happy you are here.  I hope you will watch the video replay of how I put this card together over on my YouTube channel.  This week's focus is all about using those stamps you already have in your collection and maybe using them with something new.  You bought them, let's use them and make them new again by adding other items in your collection to make some really cute cards.  Today, we are using some stamps that were actually meant to be throw away pieces to make our "cow spots", along with an older Cutest Cows, newer Perfect Pairs (already on the last chance list) and some newly released dies.  I hope you like this card and how I mashed all these things together for a unique look.  

Measurement & Supplies:

Cow spots from inside pieces in Hearts & Hugs 163659 (but see what you have on hand.)  I like to keep these excess pieces.  You can always put them in a case with other inside red rubber pieces from other stamps just for future use anytime you need them.

Hexagon Shaped birthday card with Darling Dinos

 For today's project I've used some new dies by Stampin' Up! to make a hexagon shaped birthday card for my youngest grandson.  He'll be seven in March and is absolutely obsessed with dinosaurs so when Stampin' Up! released the Darling Dinos bundle in January, I knew I would have to have it.  Thanks for taking a look.  To see how I've put this card together, there is a video replay over on my YouTube channel.

To The Point Label topped box in a bag

 I saw an idea making a large box in a bag that used a 9” piece of Designer Series Paper which gave me the idea to alter the dimensions in order to make better use of a 12 x 12 sheet.  I usually make multiples so using a piece of Designer Series Paper that size wasn’t to my liking.  First, I altered it to make a bag that had a 1 1/4” square bottom and I really liked the size.  Then, I thought it might be less wasteful to make it a bit bigger and still get six from a 12 x 12 sheet but with no waste.  I went back to the math and came out with my larger bag measurements.  To see how I put both bags together, be sure to watch the video replay on my YouTube channel.

Supplies and Measurements:

Marbled Elegance Designer Series Paper 164919

    For Small Bag 3 1/2" x 5 1/2"

    Score on 3 1/2" side at 1 1/4".  If directional paper, the bottom of the pattern should be where you are scoring at (if using a Simply Scored, pattern bottom should be on the left.)  Rotate DSP clockwise to the 5 1/2" side.  Your scoring line should be at the top of the scoring tool.  Score only down to the score line at 1 1/4", 2 1/2", 3 3/4" and 5"

   

 For Larger Bag 4" x 6"

    Score on the 4" side at 1 3/8" (If directional, pattern should be on the left of the Simply Scored tool).  Rotate clockwise (score line should be at the top of the tool) and score only down to the score line at 

1 3/8", 2 3/4", 4 1/8" & 5 1/2"

Additional supplies for small bag:

Hugs For Love bundle* 165738 (includes stamps 1164559 & To The Point Label Punch 164568)

Delicate heart shaped chocolates treat box

 I thought it would be a good time to make a small box to fit the Ghirardelli heart shaped chocolates which are currently available at my local Costco.  Of course, you can find them in most grocery/department stores now as well.  As Stampin’ Up!®️ is offering the  Heart Shaped bundle for free during Sale a-bration, it seemed like a great time to design a box to fit both products.  This is the result and I hope you will find it useful.  Watch the video replay on my YouTube.  channel and I’ll show you just how easy it is to put together.

Bee Gabled You Make Me Smile Box

Hello everyone!  I'm continuing this week with my series using the Meant to Bee bundle from the January 2025 Scrapbooking Brochure and combining it with the Hugs for Love punch bundle from the January - April 2025 Stampin' Up! mini catalog.  My project for you today is inspired by Marisa Alvarez.  She made a gabled treat box last week that I loved.  It didn't quite fit the To The Point Label Punch I wanted to use, so I altered the dimensions and created a different sized box perfect for your Valentine treats or for any other occasion.  To see how I put the box together, be sure to watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel.

Meant to Bee, Life is Better with You card

 Let's take a look at some newly released products.  I LOVE the new Meant to Bee bundle which is included in the January 2025 Scrapbooking Brochure by Stampin' Up!  If you already own the Bee My Valentine bundle, it might look familiar to you.  It's a coordinating set that when paired with each other, you have three sizes of bees, extra faces and other coordinating stamps to mix and match with each other.  This bundle; unlike Bee My Valentine, is a stamp and die bundle and the dies alone are so worth the bundle!  To see how I've put this card together and to take a look at all the dies cut out, be sure to watch my live replay over on my YouTube channel.

Mixed Labels Easel Calendar with sticky note pocket and pen holder

Hello and welcome back to my blog!  I hope you find today's 3D project useful.  I've used new product just released today by Stampin' Up! today.  I was inspired by other demonstrators who had made easel cards but couldn't quite make their designs work for me, so I took a couple different ones, added my own dimensions and my own design for the pen pocket, along with some help from my friend Tracy and came up with this design I'm very happy with.  My original prototypes were too front heavy and wouldn't stand up.  This one works perfectly and doesn't fall forward.  It's not really very difficult and I've provided some tips and tricks in the video, so be sure to watch how I've put this together.  The replay is over on my YouTube channel.

Sneak Peek of Heart Shaped Just Because I Care fold over treat box

 Hello everyone.  I hope you like the sneak peek of one of this year's Sale a-bration offerings by Stampin' Up!  This is a level 2 set which includes a photopolymer stamp set and coordinating dies.  I found some Italian milk chocolate hearts at my local Home Goods store and knew I would need to make a treat box to share them in.  I designed two boxes, one with reinforced sides and front and the other with just a reinforced front so I could get two boxes from one sheet of cardstock if I were to make a bunch of them.  I like to design boxes which allow me to get multiples from one sheet of cardstock.  If you would like to see how I've put this box together, be sure to watch the replay over on my YouTube channel.
