Stampin Up Blackberry Beauty 'Here for You' handmade vintage card
September 11, 2021
Hello crafters. I'm back with some crafty inspiration for your weekend with a card featuring the gorgeous Blackberry Beauty suite from the Stampin' Up! July to December mini catalogue. I love the lush opulent look of this suite, especially the beautiful foiled Blackberry Beauty DSP.
In addition to the earthy Early Espresso and Cinnamon Cider, the paper has Blackberry Bliss, Rich Razzleberry and Polished Pink. Then there is beautiful gold foiling. It also has a coordinating Ephemera pack.
My base card is Early Espresso, and I have added a Crumb Cake panel which I have embossed with the AMAZING Timeworn Type 3D embossing folder. If you love vintage you need this embossing folder. Before I embossed, I stamped one of the birds from the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set, in Rich Razzleberry. I did another one on a scrap of Crumb Cake and fussy cut it then adhered over the top with Dimensionals.
I stamped the 'Here for You' sentiment onto one of the labels from the ephemera kit, and popped that up on Dimensionals over some coiled linen thread. The Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots really coordinate well with this suite, and were a great embellishment for this card.
Here's a look at the Beauty of Tomorrow stamp set I used on today's card (it also comes in a bundle). You can find all of the Blackberry Beauty suite of products HERE in my online store.

Quick and Easy 10 Minute Stampin Up Snail Mail Get Well Card
February 08, 2021
Hello crafty friends! Today's card came together quickly and easily, when I saw some black and white patterned paper scraps I had sitting on my desk, and decided I wanted to use them on a card. I wanted to make a happy and bright get well card for a friend, and the Snail Mail Designer Series Paper had a nice bright piece which was perfect to compliment my sentiment.
All you need is a base card in Blushing Bride (but you could choose any of the other coordinating colours in this lovely DSP), followed by a layer of DSP which is 14cm x 9.7cm. Then I just adhered the DSP scraps, and a small strip of Blushing Bride cardstock.
My sentiment is from So Sentimental stamp set, and I have used the Stitched Shapes Dies to cut that out. It is adhered to the card using Dimensionals, and a teeny red Resin Heart (from the Snail Mail Product Suite as well) is attached. This was a super quick and easy card. All done in 10 minutes! This design would be easy to make in a variety of patterned paper designs or whenever you have scraps laying around. Get well cards are definitely great ones to have on hand.

Stampin' Up! Positive Thoughts Thinking of You / Get Well Card
February 23, 2020
Hello stampers. Today I have got a second card for you featuring the Positive Thoughts stamp set from the 2020 Stampin' Up! January to June Mini Catalogue. This card would be perfect for a get well or thinking of you card.
Dahlias have made a comeback in floral circles, and it's great to have these gorgeous Dahlia images to stamp. I stamped these ones in Blushing Bride, and then used a sponge dauber to sponge a little Rococo Rose ink onto the outer petals and centre. Here's my colour combination today.
The coordinating Nature's Thoughts dies make this stamp set extra easy to use. In addition to cutting out the major stamped images, it includes some extra bits and pieces such as the stitched rectangle, and the border piece (the Mint Macaron piece).
As I mentioned in my last post, one of the things I love most about the Positive Thoughts stamp set is the thoughtful sentiments and the lovely font. This 'Hugs, Prayers and Love' sentiment is so versatile.
Don't miss out on getting your Coordination Framelit Dies by the end of March. There are 5 different sets of Framelits, and a DSP that coordinates with 4 punches. View them HERE in my online store.

Stampin' Up! Positive Thoughts Stamp Set and limited time coordinating dies.
February 22, 2020
Happy Saturday crafty people. Today I have a beautiful soft floral card for you, using the gorgeous Positive Thoughts stamp set in the 2020 Stampin' Up! January to June Mini Catalogue. This is such a beautiful stamp set in my opinion.
I just love the imagery in this Positive Thoughts stamp set, the words in the greetings and also the lovely font in the greetings, It's very 'me'.
I really love how my colour combination came together for this card too. Grey Granite is such a gorgeous neutral for a card base.
The fern image I have stamped on the base card is Gray Granite stamped off once, to give a soft frame for the layers on the card.
Did you know for a limited time only (until the end of March unless sold out earlier), you can also purchase coordinating dies for the Positive Thoughts stamp set, called Natures Thoughts Dies? These are part of a limited time Coordination Product Release. These dies cut out images in the stamp set, but also include a few extra dies which are really useful (I have a couple of other cards coming up over the coming weeks using these extra dies). If you love this stamp set, don't miss out getting these dies before March 31st. You can find all the limited time dies HERE in my Stampin' Up! online store.
Now I'm off to work on writing up this week's free PDF tutorial for my subscribers, another fun fold card. You can receive these free too by subscribing to my email list using the links below.

Poppy Party Day 5: Stampin' Up! Painted Poppies Get Well Card
January 17, 2020
Hello stampers. Today I am bringing you day 5 (and my final day) of posts showcasing the Stampin' Up! Painted Poppies bundle from the 2020 January to June Mini Catalogue. Today's card is a get well card.
This greeting is one of the 2 part greetings in the Saleabration level 1 set Sending You Thoughts. Here's the second part of the greeting in the centre of the card,
I love how the stamped Poppy Parade flowers and Old Olive leaves work so well with the sheet of Peaceful Poppies DSP I have used as the first layer of my card. The black and white of the labels (included in the Painted Labels Dies which are part of the bundle) and greeting contrasts well with this. I have added a few of the Peaceful Poppies sequins to the greeting label to finish off the card.
If you have been following my posts this week, you will know that until January 19th, I have an additional gift with purchase of the bundle. You would also be eligible to choose a level 1 Salabration set, such as the Sennding you Thoughts greeting set I have used in today's card.
I would love to send you a pack, so grab your Painted Poppies bundle today. You will save 10%, get to choose a free Saleabration item and if you order by the 19th Jan, get my bonus too.
