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.

Supplies and measurements:

Woolly Friends bundle* 166888 (includes stamps & coordinating punch)

Banner Sayings bundle* 167051 (includes stamps & coordinating three banner punch)

Endless Love dies 167061 (can be purchased in a bundle* with coordinating stamps)

I hope you will give this a try.  I'll post an additional card over on my Facebook page I made with this exact layout, in blues and with the sentiment Welcome little cutie that would be perfect for a new baby.

Until next time; be happy, good health to you and happy stamping!

Hobby Haven DSP birthday card

Hello everyone!  I hope you are spending time with family and friends this holiday season.  I finished up my shopping (I think!) yesterday and will be taking some time off to enjoy time with family and friends.  I want to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Happy Holidays, Happy Hannukah or whatever it is you are celebrating this time of year.  From our home to yours, good health and good wishes.  

For my project today I was inspired by Jacque Williams, a demonstrator in Australia.  I'm using product from the November Online Exclusives, annual catalog and we even have a sneak peek item from the upcoming Jan-April 2026 mini catalog by Stampin' Up!  I hope you enjoy this project.  It's pretty quick to put together once you fussy cut the images.  There is a video tutorial available over on my YouTube channel.  You will find it by clicking this link.

Party Banner Love & Courage open top box

Hello and welcome back to my blog.  Today I'm sharing a treat box I made with the Party Banner dies.  I had seen Ronda Wade make a box using the banner dies so I decided to create one for myself.  Because it's the beginning of October and Breast Cancer Awareness month, I thought it only fitting to create a box using the Love & Courage stamp set.  This set is the Making a Difference fundraiser for Stampin' Up!  $3 of each stamp set purchased is donated to a breast cancer organization in each of their markets around the world.  I've used multiple techniques in the creation of the box so be sure to watch the video tutorial over on my YouTube channel.

Sunflower Love & Courage friend card

My card today is very near and dear to my heart.  I've used the Making a Difference stamp set for 2025, Love & Courage, to make this card for my friend.  Although, mine is specifically pink, this set can be used for any type of cancer and made into any of the colors that represent the different cancers.  I think it's a must have in your collection.  Who doesn't know someone who is or has fought the battle?  Sometimes a little encouragement is all it takes to make someone's day when they aren't feeling great.  You can watch the video tutorial on how I've put my card together over on my YouTube channel.

You’re the Best carved wood & watercoloring technique card

I found another technique I hadn’t heard about before and decided to give it a try.  I watched Gina K Designs show the carved wood technique and thought I really needed to give it a try with some Stampin’ Up!®️ products.  I hadn't used the Layered Florals 3D embossing folder and since it's on the last chance list at a discount, it's the perfect time to grab it if you overlooked it previously.  When I saw this, I thought it would be perfect for wood carving.  Be sure to watch the video tutorial to see all the techniques I shared on this project.  You can see it on my YouTube channel.  

Supplies and Measurements:

I hope you will give the wood carving technique a try.  It does take a bit of practice to get the ink swiping light enough if you tend to be heavy handed like I am.  But as you can see, it's well worth the little bit of practice.  

Until next time; be happy, stay healthy and happy stamping!

Cutest Cow Tales fold over flap box

 Hello and happy Sunday.  I hope everyone had a great week.  Today, I'm using the Cutest Cows stamp and punch to decorate a fold over flap box I designed to fit 3-4 Cow Tale Minis.  I get mine at my local Dollar Tree but you can find them online.  I think they will also fit Merci chocolates, although, I didn't have any on hand to experiment with.

Ice skating birthday card with Dear Santa

For my final project this week, I've used Dear Santa and Forever Forest (along with some other things) to make a cute little birthday card for the young at heart.  My grandson's 18th birthday is coming up and this little guy reminds me so much of him the first time we took him ice skating in Disneyland at Olaf's Skating Rink.  Such great memories!  I've used a new technique with the Pearlized Enamel Effects to make the snow on my mountain tops.  To see how I've put this card together, be sure to watch the replay over on my YouTube channel.

Frosted Forest Masculine Thinking of You/Birthday card

 Hello everyone! I hope you had a fabulous weekend.  For the kids here in Sheridan, this is the last week of summer vacation.  I plan to soak up the most of it with our grandkids and spend some time at the beach this week.  The weather is supposed to be nice, but often when it's nice here at home, it's not so nice at the beach.  Hopefully, we'll have good enough weather to play in the sand. 

Now onto my card for today.  I made the original card you see here for my husband for our 44th wedding anniversary last Friday.  When I made the card during my YouTube live, I switched out the inside sentiment for a birthday card.  Either way, the design works well without changing the sentiment on the front.  I do love how it turned out.  You can watch the YouTube replay to see how I put the card together.
