Good morning and happy Monday! We had a gorgeous couple of days here in north Georgia and have heard that the country is thinking about warming up so that’s all good. We even washed the van yesterday (along with 100 of our closest friends!) 😉
My card today is a reach-back to the awesome Dragonfly Garden bundle and pretty Dandy Garden DSP. This time, I also used a cool die cut panel from the Dandy Laser Cut Paper. Take a look-see:
Happy Happy Hawwwmp Day! Are you having fun with the new catalog and earning your Sale-A-Bration goodies?? It looks like you’ve been enjoying the Double Peppermints, too – and those only go thru the 12th – so…. 😉
I’ve got another card today that uses the wildly-popular Dandy Garden Suite goodies! It’s got the Dragonfly Garden Bundle and some Dandy Garden DSP. Take a look-see:
I decided to play along with this week’s Paper Players challenge!
This card is a CASE from the catalog – those SU designers are SO talented!
I started with some Dandy Garden DSP that I matted on Balmy Blue for the card front.
I cut a piece of Balmy Blue cardstock for the tag. The corners are rounded and a hole punched in the top, using the Detailed Trio Punch.
Using the gorgeous wildflower image from Dragonfly Garden, I stamped the image twice across the bottom of the tag in Misty Moonlight ink. I used the Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Write Marker to add faux stitches.
I love the little dragonfly “swarm” image – so I stamped it twice in stamped-off-once Misty Moonlight.
I ran two lengths of Mossy Meadow 3/16″ Braided Linen Trim thru the hole at the top and tied a little Linen Thread bow around them.
I cut a narrow piece of Dandy Garden DSP and adhered it across the bottom of the tag with Liquid Glue.
Using my Stamparatus, and my Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Write Marker – I stamped just the word “thank you” from Dragonfly Garden on a strip of Whisper White. This is also adhered with Liquid Glue.
I popped the tag onto the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I cut three tiny, adorable little dragonflies from Bumble Bee cardstock using the Dragonflies Punch and adhered them with Liquid Glue.
Using my Dark Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Blend, I colored a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels and then adhered them to the tag .
With a Glue Dot – I adhered a cute Ladybug Trinket in the corner of the card front and the card front was done.
On the inside, I added the wildflower image twice in Misty Moonlight ink across the bottom of a Whisper White panel.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Balmy Blue mat and into my Misty Moonlight card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!
My Whisper White Medium Envelope got the Dragonfly Garden wildflowers on the front in Misty Moonlight…
…and more Dandy Garden DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! Pretty card those SU artists designed, huh? I really do love this Dragonfly Garden bundle with its two-dragonfly Dragonflies Punch, don’t you?
I hope you like!

He watches intently – his piercing gaze never wavers.
His focus is…total.
Nothing can distract him from the threat.
Anaconda?
Wolf?
Florida Panter?
Nope.
Don’t laugh. Some of the most fearsome threats come in the smallest packages. 😉
I feel so safe.

Good morning! Did y’all see the convergence? We went down into the arena where we had as clear a shot as there is (we’re sort of surrounded by trees). We saw the two planets pretty close together – but…the pair slipped down below our effective horizon around 7:30. I’ve seen photos online, but… we didn’t get to see it. The moon, on the other hand…the MOON! Oh my. We had the binoculars and…it was…just amazing. The detail I could see with just the nocs made me really think a telescope would be cool! 😉
So – one little admin-y note…I’ve had an opening come up in my Online Host Club (one member is planning to join the team in January – whoo-hoo!!!). So…if you’d like to get Stampin’ Up! goodies a little at a time – AND earn Double Peppermints and Stampin’ Rewards (aka “free money to spend”) – without any “host duties”! – then give me a holler! The club starts in January!
My card for today showcases a new Suite in the Jan – Jun 2021 Mini Catalog – the Dandy Garden Suite! For this one, I’ve got the Dragonfly Garden stamp set, some Dandy Laser-Cut Paper and Dandy Garden 6″ x 6″ DSP. Take a look-see:
Good morning! It’s Monday after Thanksgiving – which means….it’s Cyber Monday!
Which has only been a thing for a minute. Like since 2005! Guess we like our Online Shopping, huh? I know I do – even in non-COVID years! I used to like going to the Mall but now? Pretty much rather clean house.
Wait. No…Not that. The dentist. I’d rather go to the dentist than the mall.
OR clean the house!
Now – the good news is, darned near everything I ever show you on this blog can be yours – without you ever having to leave the comfort of your pj’s and barcalounger. 😉 For example…be sure you check the Stamp-N-Storage Holiday Special and CYBER MONDAY Deals – it ends TODAY! With 15% off Sitewide, Free Shipping on orders over $100, free magnets – it’s a great time to outfit your craft area!!
Today’s goodies are a sneak peek of some things you’ll be able to get in January (or…tomorrow – more on that later!) in the January – June 2021 Mini Catalog. The Garden Wishes stamp set, Dandy Garden 6″ x 6″ DSP and Dandy Garden Memories & More Card Pack are part of the Dandy Garden Suite. Take a look-see:
Good morning and happy Friday! I’m not gonna fib ya – it’s taken me a minute to get all the way back in the swing. Which…makes it sound like I’m “back” in the swing. I’m getting there – but… you’d think I was gone for a month instead of 4 days. Maybe Finny was on to something! 😳
If you were able to join me yesterday for my YouTube live, I appreciate you spending some time with me – if not, but you’d like to see the replay, here ’tis! 🙂
Well – we’re home and it’s Monday! What a weekend it was – from storm to gorgeous in just a few days. Thankfully, the gorgeous happened FOR the wedding! 🙂 Which was also gorgeous!
My card today is my version of one we did at our virtual OnStage event – the Stamp & Share Experience! We got all the card cuts ahead of time and were ready to stamp “together” with one of the SU! head office folks! As we worked, I sort of modified the basic card to be more my style. But, it’s pretty close – and is a great Sneak Peek at the new Dragonfly Gardens Suite. Take a look-see:
