Good morning and happy Cyber Monday! Check out the Stamp-N-Storage sale today – it’s on top of the Holiday Sale savings (which also ends tonight) AND you’re going to score a free gift! It’s one day only, though so…you know what you need to do!
I’m a little embarrassed to tell you that I’m using the Merriest Trees bundle today. Yes, again! I love it and want you to love it, too! This time, I paired it up with a perfect sentiment from the Celebrate With Tags set (from the Annual Catalog!) and some Traditions of St Nick DSP – an Online Exclusive. Yes – I covered ALL the bases today! Take a look-see:
Good morning! Now – I don’t mean to scare you on a Sunday morning but…we are just ONE month – four weeks! – 29 Days – away from Christmas!
Yup.
Not even kidding! 😳😳😳
But – I’m still here to help you out! This week – I’ve got a super cute and super easy and super QUICK gift tag for you! Pull out your Merriest Trees Dies, some Merry Bold & Bright DSP and the fun Gift of Giving stamp set. Take a look-see!
Y’all – these are so quick and easy that you can knock out a whole passel of them in a blink! And – there are so many fun patterns in the Merry Bold & Bright DSP…
…you can mix ’em up almost endlessly!
I started by stamping the fun Santa image on a piece of Basic White cardstock in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.
When the ink was dry, I cut it out with the amazing tag die in the Merriest Trees Die set! I love this die set and bundled stamp set so much – AND it’s carrying over to future catalogs. Whoo-hoo!
While I had the die out, I cut the Merry Bold & Bright tag AND a Poppy Parade cardstock tag, too!
Using Pool Party, Poppy Parade, Lemon Lime Twist and Basic Black Stampin’ Blends, I colored the image.
Using Liquid Glue I adhered the tag to the Poppy Parade tag (to hide the bleed-thru from the Stampin’ Blends). Then I used Liquid Glue to adhere the layered tag to the DSP tag at a jaunty angle.
It’s as pretty on the back as it is FUN on the front!
I added a tag hanger and bow from lengths of Parakeet Party and Sweet Sorbet 2022-2024 In Color Baker’s Twine.
Finally – cuz everything needs some bling! – I added a few Pool Party Glossy Dots – and the tag was done!
Et Voila! Tags are such a fun thing to add to our gifts, aren’t they? And these, with just a Gift of Giving image and some Merry Bold & Bright DSP, are…as adorable as they are easy! If you do NOT have the Merriest Treesbundle – just get it, y’all! It is SO good!
I hope you like!

Good morning and happy Black Friday!! Are you still a little full from yesterday’s dinner? I know I am – and I can still smell the smoker when I walk by it – which makes me want another bite of ham. How can I still be full AND want a bite of ham?! 🤷♀️🤦♀️
Being Black Friday – there’s lots of good sales on and if you’ll read on after you check out today’s card – you’re going to see the Black Friday sale at Stamp-N-Storage, too! It’s a good ‘un! 🙂
So – card! This is a Christmas card with no front sentiment. Have you made any of those? I don’t do it a lot – but it’s fun every once in a while and sometimes a design really lends itself to that. This one, with some pretty paper from A Walk in the Forest DSP(retiring soon!) and trees die cut from that paper using the Merriest Trees die set (carrying over – along with the coordinating stamp set!) – makes for a quick and easy card! Take a look-see:
Hey guys! Happy Thanksgiving-eve! Are you doing all the cooking and prepping today? I’m getting BOTH my pressure cookers fired up for potatoes, making pimento cheese and deviled eggs and a pumpkin dessert. And Brussels Sprouts – using a recipe we had at our retreat (they’re so yummy that people who said – “I HATE brussels sprouts” went back for seconds!!). So – busy day!
Since I promised that our Thursday videos would showcase a new pretty from the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog…but we’re not DOING a video tomorrow – I decided to give you a sneaky look TODAY! And – I even did a short video, too!
For this one – we’re looking at the Painted Lavender Suite– the Painted Lavender stamp set and Perennial Postage bundle (one of my favoritest new things!). And the Painted Lavender DSP is…simply…stunning! Oh – and I used the Alphabet A La Mode dies from the 2023-24 Annual Catalog, too! Take a look-see:
Happy Monday, y’all! It’s a short week – for those of you who are working! – so…YEAH! But it’s also a BUSY week, right?! Cooking and cleaning and getting ready for T-day! It’s…T-4 to T-D! 😂
My card today befits a busy week – it’s super quick and easy – and showcases the cool Botanical Layers stamp set from the Annual Catalog and a fun stamping technique, too! A little Les Shoppes DSP– also from the Annual Catalog – was a perfect fit! Take a look-see:
Happy Sunday, y’all! I hope your weekend is going well!
At our retreat a few weeks ago, two talented ladies brought beautiful Christmas ornament projects for us to make! I gave y’all a peek at them and when I got requests to show how to make them… I decided that was a great idea!
I’ve got two designs for you – both made pretty much the same way, with slightly different decorations. One showcases the Stars at Night Hybrid Embossing Folder dies and the other the Nativity die from the Night Divine die set. BOTH use the now-retired (SOO sorry!) Shining Brightly Specialty DSP. Take a look-see:
Good morning and happy Friday! Another weekend – and then…next week is Thanksgiving!! I did most of my shopping on Wednesday. I think. Hope??
So – I was going to TRY to not use goodies from the new January – April 2024 Mini Catalog until…at least…December. Cuz it felt sorta mean. “Hey y’all…Look at these amazeballs new things but…nope – you can’t have it until JANUARY!”
But then I realized it would be mean and selfish to NOT share right now! Cuz there IS a way you can get them in December! More on that later!!
The very instant that I saw the Nature’s Sweetness Suite, I had to have it. HAD. TO. HAVE. IT. And had to use it. NOW!
And so I did. I used the entire Suite – Notes of Nature and Lovely & Sweet bundles and the Nature’s Sweetness Specialty DSP, plus the new trim and embellishments to make a card for a friend! Take a look-see:
Happy Monday, y’all! We’re in the last couple of weeks before Thanksgiving – have you started to gather your supplies?? In case you’re in denial that it’s so close – with Christmas right around the corner – it’s time to come to terms with it, y’all! 🙂
I’ve got another card that would be perfect for Thanksgiving – featuring the Rustic Crate bundle and…Joy of Christmas DSP! Yep – that Christmas paper has gorgeous woodgrain designs and I knew it was perfect! Pretty leaves from Abundant Beauty grace one layer and a little Exposed Brick 3D Embossing adds a perfect touch of tone-on-tone texture. Take a look-see:
Good morning and happy Sunday! I had a great few hours watching the OnStage @Home event yesterday and…I may or may not have already placed my Product Purchase Premier order! And I may or may not have accidently hit the Next Day button. Which means I may or may not be giving you a sneaky peek in a video on Monday! You’ll want to be watching for that – I mean, JIC I did ALL those things!! And – there are some AMAZE-balls new goodies coming in the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini – can’t WAIT for you to see them. Or…GET them early! 😉
My card today is one that we made at our Retreat last weekend – Linda Nye brought this as her shoebox swap and it is SO cool! It featured the gorgeous Night Divine bundle and Shining Brightly Specialty DSP – and I added a few goodies from the Stars at Night Bundle, too. It’s a stunning votive easel card…take a look-see!
Good morning and happy Friday! Yep – it’s the cusp of the weekend again! Hope you’ve got something fun planned. I’ll be spending part of tomorrow at our Stampin’ Up! OnStage @Home Event! Yeah! And…I get a sneaky peek at the new Jan – April 2024 Mini and Jan-Feb 2024 Sale-a-Bration Catalogs! Whoo-hoo! I can’t share what I see yet but…I WILL get to Pre-Pre-Order so you MIGHT start to see some projects using new goodies in the next couple of weeks! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
My card today is another fun fold – I’ve seen it called a Swing card but…🤷♀️. I got the idea from one of the cards we made at our retreat last week – my teammie Susan Kuenzel brought it for us to play with. Mine isn’t a Christmas card like hers was – instead I went with a Fall theme – using the Cottage Wreaths stamp set and coordinating Country Wreaths dies. And…some pretty Meandering Meadows DSP from the Online Exclusives. Take a look-see:
