Evergreen Elegance

Posted on by

There is nothing like the fresh cut smell of pine to bring back memories of holidays past. Tromping through the snow to find the perfect tree to cut in the field of Blue Spruce my father planted with cold toes and nose. Yes, I grew up in Wisconsin, so the cold was to be expected. As I grew up tree lots replaced that trip to the field on our property where I helped my father plant those saplings, but the memories of those days remain, so when I saw the trees in the Evergreen Elegance stamp set (153313) it brought me right back to my youth.

This set has some lovely sentiments and images for creating your holiday cards and the In Color Evergreen Elegance is perfect for this set. Check out these lovely cards. These first two team the set up with the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper (155718).

Texture has been added to this first card with the Evening Evergreen Chevron Weave Ribbon (155722) and fun Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder (153576). And this next card adds the Evergreen Border Punch (153603) as a back drop and interest.

And finally this last card uses some dies and a sentiment from another set to create this lovely card showing just how versatile these images can be.

The 2021-2023 In Color Designer Series Paper (155641) and Basic Border Dies (155558) for the back drop and the tree has been cut out with the lovely Scalloped Contour Dies (155560) that has this wonderful edge to it and he Evening Evergreen Open Weave Ribbon (155573) adds just the right touch.

So what do you think? Do these trees remind you of your childhood too? Why not leave me a comment and let me know what you think?

The In Your Words stamp set (156619) is filled with wonderful sentiments to use for all kinds of occasions.

This stamp set is one of our special Host Benefits during Sale-a-bration that you’ll earn in addition to the regular benefits. That is a great way to have fun with family and friends AND get free product!

Let’s check out some cards made with this stamp set and more. These first 2 cards have been teamed up with other Sale-a-bration products. for this first card the Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration 156630) was used as the back drop. I just love this kind of paper since Black & White is so classic and can be teamed up with the color of your choice like this card does with the pretty Fresh Freesia.

Add a bit of color to the Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper with our Blending Brushes and you’ve got tons of choices too!

Or how about these fun birthday cards, perfect for a winter time birthday since it uses the fun Penguin Playmates Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-bration 158420)?

Circles every where even the back ground on this card since it uses the Checks & Dots Embossing Folders (155432) on the Misty Moonlight layer. And this next card uses the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper (Host 155426) as a backdrop along with the fun Stitched So Sweetly (151690) and Basic Borders Dies (155558) to create a wonderful fall color combination.

And if you are loving the Designer Series Paper in our Catalogs how about this next card using the very popular Hand Penned Designer Series Paper (155499) and Hippo & Friends Dies (153585) found in our Annual Catalog?

And last but not least these last 2 cards were created with my favorite Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper (155807).

And who can resist this Mint Macaron fun fold? I love this little sentiment surprise when you open the first panel.

What’s Cookin’ this summer?

Posted on by

I don’t know about you but the last couple of weeks I’ve been busy in the kitchen putting up those fresh garden vegetables and trying new recipes with them too. Some have been a hit and some not so much, but that is the way it goes right? For those of you who love being in the kitchen creating great dishes we’ve got a great new bundle for you.

Check out these fun cards using this bundle of products the choices are endless! I love the bold background for this first card. Do you recognize it? It’s the Macramé 3D Embossing Folder (155435) creating all that texture.

And how about the classic apron? I remember so well spending time with my Grandmother who always had an apron handy for me. After she was gone I wore those aprons for years as I worked by myself baking, a fond remembrance of my youth and those times we spent together. This apron was created by using the Basic Borders Die (155558) simply by starting with the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper (Host 155426) and cutting one side with the die and then the other.

The apron trim is also one of the dies that you’ll find in the set along with the table on this next card.

So what do you think? Know someone who would enjoy receiving a card made with this set and a the little reminder that happiness IS homemade? Why not stop by my online store and check out this wonderful bundle and other products for your crafting needs?

Flower & Friendship Maui Swaps

Posted on by

Today’s cards all feature the Flower & Friendship Bundle (155590). This Bundle is a lot of fun to work with since it contains a punch, making it quick and easy! And who doesn’t love flowers?

This first card uses our Polished Pink and Soft Succulent to create a fun fold card.

The 2021 In Color Designer Series Paper (155641) was used for the flowers – simply stamped on the pattern and then punched out. A great way to add some interest quickly to an image like this

making this card bright and cheerful. The sentiment was cut out using the Layering Circle Dies (151770) and the fun little dragonfly was punched from Soft Succulent card stock using the Dragonflies Punch (154240). Don’t you love how our products coordinate?

This next card uses the fun patterns from the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper (Host 155426) and the Basic Borders Dies (155558).

Did you know that you can get this Designer Series Paper for free? It’s easy simply plan a party with me and be a Host or place a qualifying order.

During the special Host promotion that ends on June 14th you can not only earn this but also have an extra $25 added to your host benefits. Why not contact me today and set up a time for your party? Choose from a book party, facebook, or even an in person event today!

This final card uses our new Tailor Made Tag Dies (155563) to highlight the sentiment.

The Hand Penned Designer Series Paper peaks out from behind a wonderful sponged background and the little White Vellum shape has been cut out using our Painted Labels Dies (151605) for a bit more added dimension. Soft color that has an impact for this card.

Stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing more swaps from Maui with you!
