Easter Joy Shutter Card Tutorial

Today I’m sharing a quick and simple technique to create a fun camera shutter look. This technique is sooo simple but is defiantly a wow technique that I’m sure you’ll want to give it a go too!

I’ve used the Easter Joy Suite (166954) to create this card as it is filled with all kinds of goodies for Easter crafting.

The Easter Joy Specialty Designer Series Paper (166939) is a thicker paper than our regular Designer Series Paper making it perfect for 3d projects too. And the colors are quite wonderful for spring. The package also contains 2 sheets of quick project options as you can see behind the stamp set above.

I’ve used the fun colorful pattern with carrots, eggs, and flowers and chose the coordinating Peach Pie card stock to create the card’s shutter effect with.

I’ve whipped up a video tutorial for you so you can see just how simple this technique is to create!

And of course here is a PDF for you that has the supply list, measurements, and even the link to the video. So why not give this easy little technique a try?

Throw Back Thursday with Healing Hugs

Recently I found some cards that I haven’t shared with you on my desk so today I’m beginning to share a series of tutorials I’ll be calling Throw Back Thursday since they highlight something you might already have in your craft supplies. They also include new products found in my Online Store.

One of the things I love about Stampin’ Up! is their product coordination and these project will show you just how easy it is to coordinate the old with the new.

Since it’s that time of year I thought I’d stare with the Healing & Hugs stamp set since we all have someone we know who might be feeling under the weather during cold and flu season.

This set contains cute little animals so it was one I definitely wanted to add to my collection. I’ve teamed it up with our fun Brights Designer Series Paper Assortment (165301) and used one of my favorite colors, Coastal Cabana.

Want to see how I created this card? Why not check out my video tutorial and PDF with the measurements and supply list.

Woolly Friends Valentine Treat Holder Tutorial

Need a last minute Valentine Treat for family or friends? How about a cute little bag? Today’s project is one that I whipped up to hold two little Kit Kat bars that I found at my local Target and could resist picking up. These cute little bears were wrapped in what looked like to me Poppy Parade and Pretty in Pink and Flirty Flamingo wrappers that I thought would match our Made with Love Designer Series Paper perfectly!

And since they came in a smaller package I wouldn’t have a lot of chocolate temping me after I made the treats. That’s a win, win for me.

Here is the little treat I made with them.

Cute right? I fell in love with this little lamb as soon as I saw the Woolly Friends stamp set (166881) and it’s coordinating Woolly Friends Builder Punch (166887) in the January – April Mini Catalog. AND since I’ve always loved punches I knew it would be one of my first purchases from the Mini.

Here is a quick tutorial for you to learn how I created this fun little treat.

I’ve also made a PDF tutorial for you with measurements, instructions, and link to the video tutorial so everything is in one place when you are ready to create.

Thoughtful Journey Torn Edge Card

It’s that time of year to look back at 2025 and say goodbye. When I was a teenager one of my favorite things was listening to the countdown on the radio of the years hits. Now I watch the year in review on the news – It reminds me of many things I’ve already forgotten as the year seems to fly by.

So this week I thought I’d share a look back with you, some “silver & gold” from my craft room – this childhood song is about making friends. I’ve always like the meaning of the friendship song of making new friends and keeping the old – “some are silver and the others gold”. How about you?

Today’s card uses a quick and easy torn edge technique and since the Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper (163303) is beautiful landscape designs it’s perfect for this card.

I’ve teamed this paper up with the retired Thoughtful Wishes Stamp set and Dies which are retired. You might already have this on your shelves, if not you can use another sentiment set that you love.
