Good morning – and Happy Friday! What’s on your agenda this weekend? Something fun, I hope! Quick reminder that this is the FINAL Day for the Stampin’ UP! Double Stampin’ Rewards special! Don’t miss out!
My card today is a quick and easy one – with a lot of impact thanks to the color palette! I used the Fragrant Layers Bundle (an Online Exclusive) to make a floral arrangement on top of some new Artisan Sketched Garden DSP (new in the May-Aug 2026 Catalog available on 5 May!)! Take a look-see:
Good morning and happy Memorial Day weekend! Hope you’ve got something fun planned – and that your weather holds out for whatever that is!
My easy fun-fold card today showcases a fun new stamp set called Encircled With Love from the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog and a little Boho Vibes 6″ x 6″ DSP. And…I grabbed one little (perfect!) image from the Choose Happy set (a carry-over set!). Take a look-see:

My card today is one that would be great for…graduation! Starting a new job. Retirement! Or…getting ready for a mission in Elon Musk’s SpaceX Dragon 2! Basically for anyone embarking on a new journey! It features a sneak peek of some new Online Exclusive products – coming on 7 Jan! It’s the Everyday Arches stamp set and bundled dies with some Everyday Skies 6″ x 6″ DSP to bring the stars to the show! Take a look-see:

Good morning and Happy Friday! I hope y’all are staying warm and have warm plans for the weekend! Finny and I are staying close to home, I think. HE might (definitely!!) want to go somewhere but…it’s too stinkin’ cold for ME to want to go, so…since I’m his driver…🤷♀️😂
My card today is a super easy fun fold – it’s called a Joy Fold and it’s really great for showing off beautiful – or fun! – DSP. Like…for example, the Rock & Roll DSP on this one! And I added a few fun elements from the coordinating Rock Star bundle. And…lightning bolts! Take a look-see:
Good morning and welcome back to your work-week! AND – this is the LAST week to earn Bonus Days coupons (that you’l spend in August!). I can’t believe that it’s almost over!
MAYBE you’ll want to add today’s goodies to your stash (while earning those coupons!). It’s the Reach for the Stars bundle, the gorgeous Stargazing DSP and some pretty (shiiinnnyyy) Holographic Trio Specialty Paper! Those are what I used to make a quick and easy card that would be great for…graduation!? A new job?! Starting a new business?? Well – take a look-see and YOU decide!
Hey y’all – it’s Thursday, so it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop!! Today’s a color challenge – and I’m excited to see what everyone brings to the table! I just know you’re going to see a ton of awesome-ness on the hop today!
The colors today led me smack to the Playing With Patterns DSP so…being a good follower, I used it as the basis for my card. And – I decided to also break out my So Much Happy Bundle with the super cool Happy Dies. Take a look-see:
Good morning! Hope the week is going well!
Bit of business news….for all my Catalog Share customers – if you’re expecting a few more embellishments to complete your shares…they’re on the way! I dropped them at the Post Office on my way to the dentist yesterday. So…yeah!! And – if you’re wondering if I’m doing Shares for the 2020 Aug – Dec Mini – the answer is yes! Look for those tomorrow, okay? 🙂
My card today is a bright little number – anchored by the sweet Daisy Lane stamp set and both Daisy punches. I added a plaid background with the Buffalo Plaid stamp and the Best Plaid Builder Dies. Take a look-see!
Hey y’all – it’s Sunday, which means I’ve got another fun challenge for you from the Paper Players – it’s a theme challenge from Ann – and it’ll for sure jump-start your creative mojo! I hope you’ll come and play along. 🙂
If you were able to join me yesterday for my Facebook Live video, I appreciate you spending some of your weekend with me! If you weren’t able to watch the live version, but you’d like to see the replay on YouTube…here ’tis! And – fair warning – the video is 1 hour and 20 minutes – but…the card making is pretty fast. The bulk of the video is a sneak peek at my pre-order from the 2020 Aug – Dec Mini Catalog – which will be available for customers to order on 4 August!
Good morning, y’all – welcome to another edition of Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team blog hop! Each month we make projects centered around a theme – and this month our theme is For the Boys/Men! We can interpret that any way we want – so…be sure to check and see everyone’s projects – we’ve got a bunch of talented ladies hopping with us this month!
Because I really just couldn’t help myself, I pulled out a new bundle – well the Suite, really – all available on 3 Jun! My card today showcases the wunnermus new World of Good Suite – anchored by the Beautiful World stamp set and bundled World Map dies. And this suite is where you’ll find the amazing World of Good Specialty DSP and my new favorite thing…Antiqued Corners & Slides. Take a look-see:
The layout for this one is from this week’s CAS(E) This Sketch challenge.
I started with some of the beautiful Mossy Meadow paper from the World of Good Specialty DSP that I matted on Early Espresso for the card front. A smaller piece, also matted on Early Espresso, created the middle panel.
Next, I used a square Stitched Shapes Die to cut down one of the great smaller cards in the new Beautiful World Memories & More Card Pack and adhered it to the card front with Liquid Glue.
Using the circle die in the World Map Dies, I cut a circle from the same scripty design in the World of Good Specialty DSP. I used the detailed die (this is the one with North America – but there’s ALSO a die featuring the other half of the world!!) to cut a Gold Foil world.
I adhered that to the DSP circle with Liquid Glue and popped it onto the card front with Black Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I threaded some of the new 1/4″ Faux Suede Trim – also part of this Suite and available on 3 Jun – thru an Antiqued Slide and then adhered it to the card front with a Glue Dot and a little Liquid Glue.
To finish off, I added an Antiqued Corner at each corner of the scripty panel with a Glue Dot (don’t you think they make it look like a really cool and elegant desk pad?!? Ha – you do now even if you didn’t before!! ) and the card front was done!
On the inside, I used more of the scripty World of Good Specialty DSP and, with my Stamparatus, added a sentiment from the Beautiful World stamp set in Early Espresso.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to an Early Espresso mat and into my Mossy Meadow card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!
My Very Vanilla Medium Envelope got an Early Espresso world map image from the Beautiful World stamp set on the front…
…and more of the Mossy Meadow World of Good Specialty DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! Okay – who’s with me here?! World of Good is a SUPER wonderful suite – filled with vintage and masculine-oriented images and the World of Good Specialty paper is just….swoon-worthy! The Beautiful World stamp set – with the bundled World Map Dies will let you create cards for thank you’s, writers, travelers and just because!
I hope you like!

Happy Friday, y’all! When you get this post, I’ll be on the way to a day of stamping and fun with Brian King and a 100+ other demonstrators. I think it’s going to be a great day! I’m presenting a little do-ha on making collage cards. So…fingers crossed! And be watching my Stamps-N-Lingers FB page – I’ll post some pics as the day progresses!
Now, my card today is about as far from a collage card as it’s possible for me to get! This is a Clean And Simple card to celebrate a strong woman – using the aptly named…Here’s To Strong Women stamp set. And a little Brightly Gleaming Specialty DSP. Take a look-see:

#13 Demonstrator in Leadership in the US 2023-2024
#21 Demonstrator in Team Building in the US 2023-2024
