Good morning everyone! Welcome to this month’s 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 pulled out the lovely Kintsugi Inspirations Specialty DSP and the coordinating Inspiring Imperfections bundle for today’s card. I call this a Short Front Flap Fun Fold! Take a look-see:
Happy Sunday, y’all – and happy First Official Day of Fall! It’s for sure my fave time of year here in Georgia – assuming we GET more than a couple of days of Fall weather!
My card today celebrates the arrival of this season of Pumpkin Spice, Apple Cider, Hot Chocolate and so many more good (and calorie-laden!) things! It’s uses a bunch of elements from the More Than Autumn stamp set and bundled dies from the Sep-Dec 2024 Mini Catalog. I set it atop some To Market DSP – cut with a Perennial Postage die – to give it that Fall-Farmer’s-Market feel! Take a look-see:
Good morning and Happy “Total Eclipse of the Sun” Day”! Admit it – you sang that phrase like Bonnie Tyler, didn’t you?! 😂 Are you doing anything special? My friend is having a big party – they live in Ohio and are right under the path – with Moon Pies, Sun Chips and Blue Moon beer. If I lived closer – I’d totally crash that cuz it sounds like a great time!! As it is – we’ll go outside and watch cuz…you know – ECLIPSE! But – I DID see that in 2078 the path of THAT total eclipse will go right over Atlanta, so…you can bet we’ll go all-out for THAT one, for sure! 😉😉
I guess I should have made an eclipse card for today but…I didn’t! Instead – I made a Birthday card using some pretty things that are carrying over into the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog – the Perennial Lavender DSP, Painted Lavender stamp set and dies and (my fave!) the Perennial Postage dies. AND – I pulled out the brand new sentiment-only set called Simply Said! Take a look-see:
Good morning, y’all! It’s Thursday – which means it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a Sketch challenge to work with 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!
Today’s the LAST DAY to getcha some Sale-A-Bration goodies and…the Watercolor Melon and Softly Sophisticated Bundles are two that you might consider! Combine those with some Sunny Days DSP and you’ll be ready to make the card I’ve got for you today. Take a look-see:
Good morning and happy Monday! We’re at 353 days till Christmas!
Too soon?!?
I only ask because…with it being so close..is there REALLY any reason to take the tree down? I mean – it’s pretty with the lights on – and…I’d just have to turn right back around and put it back up! Seems sorta silly! 🤷♀️
My card today is definitely NOT silly – it’s a clean-and-simple little number featuring one of my favorites – the Perennial Lavender Suite! Front and center is Painted Lavender images set atop a creamy Fern 3D Embossed panel. The Perennial Postage bundle is key – the die cuts and sentiment bring this card home! Take a look-see:
Good Sunday morning, y’all! Hope your weekend is going well. I did a little shopping yesterday for some last minute things. By which one could be forgiven for thinking that means it’s the last time I’ll go out or shop before Christmas.
Bwahahahaha! I wish! You’d have THOUGHT it was the LAST Saturday before Christmas instead of the FOURTH Saturday based on the crowd at Costco! Sheesh!
Speaking of the Fourth Saturday before Christmas (see how I did that?) – I made a fun book-fold Christmas card for last night’s edition of my Video Series. I capitalized that so you’d know how cool it was! 😎 This one featured some Traditions of St. Nick DSP – cut with a NEW goodie – the Perennial Postage Dies (which you can get in January!) – and a few sentiments and images from the retiring Saint Nicholas bundle. 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:
