Good morning everyone and welcome to the Fun Folds Blog Hop for Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators! We’ve got a talented line-up and…I think you’re going to like what you see! This is a once-a-month hop and…all our cards will be fun folds!! How cool is that?!?
I saw a really cute side-step fun fold created by Laura Krauss and decided to do my own spin on it! Both our cards feature the Playing in the Rain stamp set and dies, with an assist from the Rain or Shine Specialty DSP! Take a look-see:
Good morning, y’all! For some reason, I’ve been thinking the Super Bowl was today. Why did I think it was played in January? You can see I keep VERY close tabs on professional football, right? 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
My card today is a really cool one (she says modestly) using the new Greatest Journey bundle and one of my favorite DSP designs ever – from the coordinating Enjoy the Journey DSP! Take a look-see:
Good morning, y’all – did you have a good weekend? Are you ready to be back at work? I’m not sure that’s even a thing… 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
I’ve got a card for you today that is just…plain…cute! It’s uses the sweet Sweet Songbirds bundle – that’s a punch-bundle, with the quick and handy Songbird Builder Punch. And a little Painted Christmas DSP – for a NOT-Christmas Card – plus the pretty Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder. Take a look-see:
Happy weekend-eve, y’all! Whoo-hoo!
I made a fun card yesterday using the new Trees for Sale stamp set – with the coordinating (and FREE with a $100 purchase during Sale-A-Bration!) Tree Lot Dies. I wanted it to be NOT for Christmas, so…I pulled out the Happiness Abounds stamp set to get a couple of sentiments. AND – it’s a fun fold card! Take a look-see:
Good Tuesday! Hope your week is going well so far – we’re having Spring again. I see a green haze in the pastures – the weather is gorgeous. It’s like the little temper tantrum of the weekend never happened.
Georgia in March! 🤷♀️
My card today is a Joy Fold card that showcases the beautiful Symbols of Fortune Specialty DSP and the coordinating Crane of Fortune Bundle from the Jan – Jun 2022 Mini Catalog! I love it in it’s serene colors. Take a look-see:
Good morning, my peeps! I hope your weekend has been as gorgeous as ours! Windows and door open – actually too warm for the fur-kid. Wunnermus! Daffodils – the tulip tree – Spring is sputtering to life here in Georgia! So we celebrated by doing some gardening and some mulch-getting!
So – y’all have seen the Savings Are in Bloom special that’s going on right now, yes? Well, my card for you today uses one of my fave bundles (YES! They brought it back as a bundle for you for the sale!!) – the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle. And – since it was too perfect, I paired it with some Heart & Home DSP. Take a look-see:
Well – good Christmas Eve morning! I hope that you’re all ready for a relaxed and happy couple of days with friends and family.
AFTER you get all the last minute running around hecticraziness done today, of course!
Just think of all the calories you’re burning off TODAY – so that you can go for it TOMORROW!! (check out today’s Finn Fan Fix – we’re enjoying a cookie coma this morning!).
WAIT – check out the car…..never mind. Come back when you’re done…🤷♀️
So, if you were able to join me last yesterday for my YouTube Live, I appreciate you spending part of your Christmas Eve Eve with me. If not, but you’d like to watch the replay on YouTube – here ’tis!
Good morning, y’all – welcome to another edition of the Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team blog hop! Each month we make projects centered around a theme – and this month our theme is Celebrate! 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!
I decided to go straight up “celebrate” – even used the actual WORD in my sentiment from the new Happy & Heartfelt stamp set paired with the die cuts and images from the new Paradise Palms bundle and a little Abstract Beauty 4″ x 6″ DSP. These are ALL coming soon to customers in the Jan – Jun 2022 Mini Catalog. Take a look-see:
Hello again and happy Monday! I don’t know about y’all – but…four-day weekends really throw me for a loop. I have trouble remembering what day it is ANYway. Having a holiday on Thursday just puts me in a spin! 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
My card today is simple – but super sweet (she says modestly!). I used the new Heart & Home DSP and the Honeybee Home stamp set – with the bundled Honeybee Blooms Die set (all coming on 4 Jan in the Jan-Jun 2022 Mini Catalog. Unless…you JOIN the team – this is a GREAT time to do that! THEN you can get them on…Wednesday, 1 December!). Take a look-see:
The layout for this one is from the Freshly Made Sketches challenge this week.
I started by matting a piece of the pretty gray woodgrain paper from the Heart & Home DSP on Highland Heather for the card front.
Using the next-to-smallest of the skinny dies in the Stitched Rectangle Die set, I cut a piece of the Misty Moonlight paper from Heart & Home and adhered it with Liquid Glue.
Using Stampin’ Seal, I adhered a length of 3/8″ Denim Ribbon (part of the Heart & Home Suite and available on 4 Jan) across the card front.
I used the two dies in the Honeybee Blooms die set to cut a Highland Heather and a Misty Moonlight flower- which I then adhered on the left side, over the ribbon, with Liquid Glue.
I tied a simple bow from Linen Thread and adhered it with a Glue Dot.
On a piece of Basic White, I stamped the uber-sweet Honeybee Home sentiment in Highland Heather. Then I cut it with the smallest skinny Stitched Rectangle Die.
Using double-stacked Stampin’ Dimensionals, I adhered the sentiment over the top of the ribbon and the bow.
Finally, I added a few Basic Gray dots from the new Classic Matte Dots (from the Jan – Jun 2022 Mini) and the card front was done.
On the inside, I stamped two of the flowers from Honeybee Home in Highland Heather and Misty Moonlight. I nestled a small Basic Gray Classic Matte Dot in the foliage.
I used Stampin’ Seal to adhere the panel to a Highland Heather mat and into my Smoky Slate card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done.
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the Honeybee Home flowers on the front in Misty Moonlight and Highland Heather…
…and more of the Heart & Home DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! Wow – this is going to be SUCH a popular Suite! This amazing Honeybee Home stamp set and bundled Honeybee Blooms dies are so beautiful! Add the floral and woodgrain beauty of the Heart & Home DSP and… it’s a winner for sure!

No? Well – I have the solution for you.
For the first time on a WordPress Blog, may I present….
The Finnomatic 5000!

Routine maintenance is…
…minimal and the system remains active during the scheduled maintenance activity.
Complete with convenient sighting mechanisms….
System can be activated and the home owner can go on his way, secure in the knowledge that the homefront is safe from rogue deer.
Wascally wabbits.
