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.
A place to share my love for paper crafting as an independent Stampin' Up!®️ Demonstrator.

Humble Home Gingerbread House Light String
Happy day Thanksgiving Eve to everyone here in the US. I hope you have a wonderful holiday season filled with love, laughter, family and friends.
For my project today, I've made a holiday light string using fairy lights and the Humble Home bundle. This is not my original idea, I've recreated it from a string I saw by Anna Wheaton. What an awesome idea it is, I just had to recreate it for you. Of course, I've done mine a little different. Be sure to watch the video replay to see how I've put it together. You will find it on my YouTube channel where I share some tips and tricks to make this little gem more easily.

Rustic Crate 3D Table Favor
Hello, I'm so glad you're here. With the launch of the new Stampin' Up! September to December mini catalog yesterday, I decided to inspire all of you with a few samples using the Rustic Crate bundle, which is featured on page 46 of the publication. I'm starting with a 3D project you could adapt for any season/occasion as a table favor. I hope you like it.

Gone Fishing tackle gift box
Happy Saturday! Welcome to the weekend. Today, I’m attending our monthly craft day and really enjoying some girl time with my friends. I hope you can find some time soon to do the same. As a reminder, through the end of this month, there is a Designer Series Paper sale going on with selected papers from the Stampin' Up! 2023-2024 Annual Catalog. You can find these in my online store here: https://www.stampinup.com/categories/specials/designer-series-paper-sale?demoid=2109129
Onto our gift box! I designed this box to fit the tackle box top die in the Gone Fishing bundle by Stampin’ Up! I love how it turned out. I was thinking this box could hold fishing tackle for your favorite fisherman or Swedish Fish and a gift card so he can shop for his tackle. I got too sick after I designed the box, to go shopping for the right size bag, so I used Hershey Nuggets instead. This could be used for Father’s Day, birthday, retirement or any other occasion you would like it for. Change the colors, make it a makeup case, jewelry box or whatever you like. Women like to fish also, so change up those colors and make one for her! You can watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel HERE:

Something Fancy Sweet Citrus treat box
I love to make treat boxes! It’s one of my most favorite paper crafting things. I used to case a lot of treat boxes but then I figured out how to design my own. When I first saw the Something Fancy dies, I just knew I would need to make some treat boxes using those pieces. Here is the first of my treat boxes with them. I designed it to fit two lemon crisp Kit Kat miniature candy bars and it features the Sweet Citrus bundle for decorations. Be sure to watch the live replay over on my YouTube channel to see how I put it together HERE:

Christmas Season cross stamping Christmas cracker
Today's project is the second project of my 12 Projects of Christmas 2022, and shows another way to use the cross stamping technique I demonstrated during my live tutorial on Tuesday which you can watch over on my YouTube channel HERE:
I wanted to show the technique is not just for cards and can be done on any size paper. I hope you are inspired to try it and to make some treat boxes for loved ones during the holidays. I think everyone should have the Cracker and Treat box dies. They can be used for any occasion, and you get so many extra labels you can use on anything and everything!

Hello everyone! Today is Project 9 of the 12 Projects of Christmas. I have a great gift option for you today. First off, let me thank Dawn Griffith of Dawn's Stamping Thoughts for the inspiration for this project. When I saw her make one, I just knew I had to make one with the Snowflake Wishes stamp set. I love how it turned out and I hope you do too! Now without further ado, let's get started.
Below is the measurements and cutting template for the card and box.
