Hello everyone. I'm mashing up some Stampin' Up! products (both older and new) to make some fun projects for you this week. I wanted to make some things that can meet the valentine theme yet could also be used for other occasions. 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.
A place to share my love for paper crafting as an independent Stampin' Up!®️ Demonstrator.

Santa's coming to town fun fold card
Hi everyone! This week my featured bundle is Festive Friends. These little characters were just screaming for me to color them and so they jumped in my shopping cart and were soon on their way to me. I saw this fun fold last week by Deb Smeak, a fellow demonstrator and decided I needed to recreate it. It's such an easy fun fold to make and it's quick. Easy to reproduce if you are making a lot of cards. To see how I've put it together, you can watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel by clicking this link. Use what you have on hand or if you would like to order this bundle, click on the shopping cart to the right. I'd love to earn your business.

Paper Tags Sunshine & Laughter card with Christmas Greenery
Oh my gosh all! I absolutely LOVE the Christmas Greenery bundle!!!! It's so beautifully done and makes mass producing cards quick and easy but looks like you spent so much time on them. Today, I'm pairing it with the Paper Tags bundle which probably seems like an unusual combination, but I do love how it turned out. To see how I've put my card together, head on over to the video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking on this link.

Etched Autumn For You technique card
Today's card is all about techniques. I hope you will watch the video tutorial for this card over on my YouTube channel. I teach you exactly how to achieve this easy design with stamps, ink & paper. This uses some products that will not be available until September 3, 2025. However, I loved them so much I couldn't wait to show you how to use them and perhaps, you will want to put them on your wish list for when the products go live to the public.

Autumnal Sending Hugs with Golden Greenery Gate Fold
Hello my friends and happy Monday. I hope your weekend was a good one filled with lots of fun & good weather (as in good temperatures). This is the final installment in the Season of Green & Gold suite for this week. I've tried to show the versatility of the bundles for seasons other than Christmas. I saw the potential in the bundles immediately to go outside the box and create some different projects. I hope you like this card!

Autumn Leaves 1/2 sheet fold over flap treat box
Geez, I’m so ready for fall, anyone else. It’s been a good summer, but with almost no rain here in Oregon where I’m at this season. This week, it’s a bit cooler and feels a little more like fall and we have a small bit of rain. We are still in a drought, but rain is in the forecast for today. I’ve been playing with the All About Autumn suite of products from the September-December 2023 Stampin’ Up! mini catalog releasing to the public next week on September 6. Fall is my favorite season and I love anything leaves so this suite spoke to my heart and I had to get it to share with all of you.
My first project this week uses a new-to-me watercolor technique that is quick and super easy. Be sure to watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel HERE to see how I watercolored my leaves. The treat box is a resized version of a box from Angie at ChicnScratch. I liked how the box looked, but wanted to be able to get two out of a sheet of cardstock, so I resized it to fit. I generally make 10 or so boxes when I make them so it’s preferable for me to have a smaller size economically. The finished box size is 2 1/2 x 2 3/4 x 1” so it is a good size and will hold plenty of treats or a small gift.

Gift Card tag and/or treat holder with Celebration Tags, 11th in the 12 Projects of Christmas 2022 series
I hope you can use this tag made into a gift card holder OR treat holder. I used the Celebration Tags dies to make this project. My idea was that you could either attach to a gift or hang on the Christmas tree as a decoration with a gift card inside for the recipient.
