  • Haiti Disaster Relief

    On 12 January, 2010 a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Haiti, leaving in its wake devastation so overwhelming that the Haitian people and their leaders can only look for help from the outside to cope. As a Stampin’ Up! Customer, you can help make a difference in the lives of those who continue to suffer from…

  • Creating Cards In Bulk

    I managed to make 10 cards in about an hour yesterday, go me!! The easiest way I know to do this is to keep a simple design, precut all your cardstock and then just settle in for mass production….. and keep going till you do them all (otherwise I end up with 10 part cards…

  • Embrace Life

    Gosh it feels like forever since I’ve made a card. I’m taking some time off the Utah Diva Sketches as my craft room still isnt back together, there is literally nothing in there. This long weekend it will be at the top of the list tho. This card is loosely based on the latest Diva…

  • Tree Trimmings

    I love this set.  I was a bit unsure about getting it a first, as they are quite small images, but I’m so glad I did get them – they are such good value for just $24.95 and I also LOVE the Ski Slope Designer Paper I’ve done a little bit of masking for this…

  • More Nursery Necessities

    Here’s the second card that we made at the baby card class. Again, fairly simple, just lots of layering, and a little bit of faux stitching along the side of the card. My Sister’s partner is still hoping there’s a chance their baby could be a girl, even tho the ultra sound says otherwise! Card…

  • A Rose is a Rose

    Another card we did last term at Linc n Learn, and only just making it to the blog. A fairly simple and straight forward card, the only thing a bit special about it is that I’ve used the Scalloped Edge Punch to make a large scalloped rectangle. Card Recipe Stamp Set: A Rose is a…

  • Dreams de Jour

    I wonder what that actually means?  Anyone speak French? Here’s a card we made last term at Linc n Learn, and yes it’s a direct CASE from the IDEA BOOK & Catalogue.  There’s a lot more to this card when you start creating it. Lots of cutting, scalloping, distressing, paper piercing – it took longer…

  • Upsy Daisy

    I do have quite a little line up of cards to show you over the next few days. I wasnt sure how these two blues would work together, but they have blended together nicely.  It’s another Linc’n’Learn card. The daisy image was created by first inking up in Baja Breeze, then tapping very lightly into…

  • Happy Mother’s Day

    and no I’m not going to show you a Mother’s Day Card, I’m going to show you my hubby’s birthday card, as today is his birthday 🙂 This card is very similar to one that Pam Morgan showed us at Convention.  I’ve added the clip, which hubby pulled off straight away to see if it…

  • Faux Woodgrain Technique

    It’s been a long time since I’ve been featured in a Magazine (well it feels like a long time).  This month I’m in Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft Vol 14 No 11 with the Faux Woodgrain Technique. Look out for Issue 2 of Papercraft Essentials too, I have a whooping 7 cards in that issue, but…
