I've switched gears for my stamp set today as the Woolly Friends stamps set is out of stock. It will be back in the next week or two; however, I wanted to make this Case-ing Tuesday 548 sketch card and decided to use the same stamp set they used in theirs. Of course, I've changed it up to make this awesome card you could use for Valentine's Day or any occasion where you want to send your love. I have a video tutorial over on my YouTube channel with additional samples of how I changed things up in case you don't have one of the stamp sets. You can watch it here by clicking this link.

Sending You Love Case-ing Tuesday sketch card

You're the sweetest woolly friend
My featured bundle this week is Woolly Friends. Of course, I have to mash it up with some other products to make the cutest little friend card. This card is perfect for Valentine's Day or any day for that matter. I've used the Lovely Doilies and scored it as was shown by Sara Douglas on each of the scallops which gave it a little lift. She used hers to make a medallion but that wasn't the look I was actually going for. You can watch the video tutorial on how I made this card over on my YouTube channel by clicking this link.

Loose Valentine's shaker treat box
Hello and happy Sunday! I have a cute little treat box for you today and I've made it extra special by adding a shaker element. I typically don't like to make traditional shaker cards unless I'm hand delivering them. I always hand deliver treats so a shaker box works perfectly for those. This box doesn't take a lot of supplies to make and once you get the hand of them, they're really pretty quick and easy. I have a video tutorial over on my YouTube page you will want to watch to see how I put it together. You can see it here by clicking this link. You will notice in the photos below I added an additional piece of dsp to the inside of the box top. You could see the glue lines through the vellum, so I covered it. I didn't cut the inside piece at the same time as the top two. Because it's vellum, if you're off a tiny bit, it really doesn't show through.

I decided to make this a very easy fun fold card. Just one extra score and voila, you have this fun fold made easily. You will find a video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking this link.

Hello everyone. I'm mashing up some Stampin' Up! products (both older and new) to make some fun projects for you this week.

For my card together, I've put together some unexpected combinations for you and hope you find this card as adorable as I do. You will find a YouTube video tutorial over on my channel by clicking this link.

Sending Love large banner treat box
Happy Sunday everyone! I hope everyone is enjoying some much-needed relaxation today. I have another treat/gift box you can use for Valentines, wedding or any time you want to send a little love to someone. I've combined two of the latest products by Stampin' Up! in this project. You will find a video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking this link. I hope you will give it a try and make something special for your friends or family. They're pretty quick and easy to make. Of course, you could make this box for any occasion at all just by changing colors and decorations. If you don't have the banner dies, no worries, you can use two pieces of cardstock 3 3/4" x 5" and it will work just as easily. To make the banner ends, cut down in the center of one end about 1/2", then cut down from each side to the center cut to make your own banner if you would like.

Sending Love Vertical Bandstand Fun Fold card
Hey all, I've got another vertical floating bandstand card for you today. I absolutely love this fun fold. I think it's easy and makes such a huge impact. I made this particular card so I could send it out to my Aunt in Minnesota as I didn't get to mailing out my Christmas cards. I wanted her to know I hadn't forgotten about her but didn't really want an all out Valentine card. This is the result. I hope you like it. To see how I've put this card together, you can watch the video 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.

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.

You'll Always Bee the Friend For Me
My card today is again top heavy on product. I know, it is possible to use just one stamp set, but where's the fun in that? One of my favorite things to do is to grab some sets and explore the possibilities that haven't been created yet, to see where my creative juices take me. To see how I've put this card together, be sure to watch the replay over on my YouTube channel.

Thoughtful Expressions Valentine Card with Most Adored DSP
Hello everyone. It has been a crazy weather week here in NW Oregon. I'm happy to be here to share a card with you today using the Thoughtful Expressions bundle of products by Stampin' Up! Today's card started as a birthday card, but I changed it up a bit and made it into a Valentine card. Now, I have one for my daughter's birthday and a Valentine card as well. Same design, I just changed up the sentiments! Easy Peasy. I hope you like it. Always remember, any design can be altered to use anything you already have on hand.
