For my second card this week, I've chosen to use the Artisan Sketched Garden dsp for my focal image and brought in some awesome new scalloped dies coming out on the 5th of May. I've paired it again with the April POTM Eyelet Blooms dies and used the die for it's intended use and as an embossed piece.

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

Just a note Springtime floral
Today I'm continuing on with my featured product of Springtime Scenes. I've mashed together several items you many already own, along with some new ones. I hope you enjoy this presentation. You can watch the video tutorial on how to put it together over on my YouTube channel by by clicking this link. To be honest, I had completely forgotten about the frames in the Gallery Blooms dies. I'm so glad I rediscovered them this week. They are on the last chance list and discounted, so if you want them, don't wait because once they're gone, they're gone for good.

Ladybug Birthday in 2026-2028 In Colors
For my card today I wanted to focus on the new 2026-2028 In Colors which will debut on May 5. I had this vision to stamp the ladybugs in a row and color one in each color...then decided I really needed to use the Peaceful Pine to color my foliage rather than a ladybug. I started with a sketch (of which this card looks absolutely nothing like except for the rectangle lol), then dove in and this is the result. I am rather pleased with the looks of it. It just goes to show you how you can start with an idea or sketch and it's only a jumping off point for your creativity.

Quilted cross Easter card
Hello all! Great news! Stampin' Up! announced free shipping for the next three days with a $75** qualifying order! Free shipping will run February 18-20, 2026, and ends at 11:59 pm MT or 10:59 p.m. PT. Head on over to my online store for all the details.
Today I have a card that was inspired by May May Made it. I saw how she made these little quilted circles and placed them into a cross using a patterned paper. It inspired me to try out her method. I had to change the circle sizes and Stampin' Up! does not currently have the size circle punch she used. I altered the measurements to fit the 1 3/4" punch, grabbed some wood paper, and put this card together using Stampin' Up! products. I hope you give this a try. I do love how it looks. To watch the video tutorial where I show you how to create it, head on over to my YouTube channel by clicking this link.

I'm feeling a bit better and I have a card tutorial for you today using the Linked Together bundle by Stampin' Up! To see how I've put this card together, be sure to watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel.

Loveliest Tree birthday sketch card
Hey there, today’s project features a sketch from page 22 of the Stampin’ Up!®️ annual catalog. I’ll be using the featured bundle Loveliest Tree again. By the way, did you know that beginning June 5-30, Stampin’ Up!®️ is having a sale on all bundles, suite collections and Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machines? This is a very good sale and I expect that lots of items will sale out, so be sure to get your order in sooner rather than later. All items are while supplies last.
