Yesterday I shared with you a fun One Sheet Wonder Template using the Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper and as promised here is the Lay Out #2 Card Tutorial.
A portrait layout with rich Gold Shimmer Vellum. I love the translucent look of this vellum, it is simply gorgeous. But it is part of the Retirement List so it’s while supplies last so you’ll want to stock up on this elegant crafting option.
This card is quick and easy and if you follow my One Sheet Wonder 6×6 Cutting Guide Template #1 Video Tutorial. You can see it HERE.

Today’s card is one I created to share during our OnTour event. I wanted to show case the NEW 2021 In Colors that I had just received during PreOrder. Here is what I came up with.
I like the way the card turned out. I used the Basic Borders Die to create a “table cloth” since I thought the Soft Succulent gave off a vintage vibe. I’m really loving the Evening Evergreen since it can be used as a neutral color like I did here.
I’ve whipped up a quick video tutorial for you. This is a two step stamp set and so you’ve got all kinds of options.
So what do you think? Is this a set that you’d enjoy creating with? Did you know that the Sweet Ice Cream stamp set is being highlighted in my May Card Class? Yep, and you can earn this class for FREE when you place a qualifying order in product. Attend my LIVE event or do the Online version the choice is your. You can click HERE to learn about this fun class option. But you’ll want to hurry since RSVP ends on May 14th.
Maui here we come!
On a personal note I wanted to let you know that Larry and I are getting ready for the Stampin’ Up! Maui Incentive Trip. Since this is a very special trip and we haven’t had a real vacation in many years, we decided to fully immerse ourselves in the experience. Starting this Thursday I plan on having blog posts scheduled for you to enjoy while we are gone, and if everything works correctly you’ll see them like normal. My regular office hours will resume on May 26th. I will check email, but I won’t be able to respond as quickly as I normally would. Stay tuned – I will share on face book group and when here I return.
If you are interested in setting up a Facebook or book party to take advantage of the extra Host Benefits we can get you started tomorrow. Please let me know before the end of the day Wednesday. This way you can have your party ready to go after the first of June if you’d like to gather with friends.

Today’s card is the final card to my 3 part Mix It Up series of tutorials. I hope you have enjoyed this concept that was introduced to us last fall at OnStage@Home. It’s a great way of creating quick and simple cards quickly since you only have to cut once and can create 3 different layouts.
Using the same supplies as the first two cards in this series makes this a great way to start building your stamping supplies too if you are new to stamping. Punches make everyone successful and they are quick and easy to use!
Here are my video tutorials and PDF for this card.

Did I say darling? Yes! This stamp set is just too cut and I couldn’t wait to ink it up and put it to paper when I first saw it.
Today’s card was one that I cased from the Sale-a-bration brochure. Do you ever do that? I love the fact that our catalogs have such great ideas that we can copy and share! I used this cute little card for my Team OnStage After Party last November, so today I thought I’d share it with you so you can make some too.
I’ve whipped up a quick tutorial with a complete supply list and video too! Why not check it out?
Whew! What did I tell you too darling right? If you love this card you can order the supplies I’ve used and earn the stamp set for FREE! That’s right, free. When you place any qualifying order during January and February you can choose a FREE item from our Sale-a-bration Brochure. But you’ll want to hurry since you only have 2 months to earn all the fantastic free goodies in the brochure instead of the normal 3 months we’ve had in the past.
Got questions? I’m here to help simply call or email me. I’m always happy to help!
This past weekend I gathered with my Team, The Blue Mountain Stampers for a special biannual event. This event allows us to gather and celebrate everyone’s accomplishments over the last 6 months. We have a special project, along with prizes, and appetizers. So today I thought I’d share our project that we made.
This project was a lot of fun to make and everyone’s turned out differently since they could decide on which patterns they wanted to use. Here is mine.
I really love the colors and patterns of the Gilded Autumn Suite of Products and so I couldn’t resist making a home décor item with them. I also really love the way the little swirls of copper ribbon finish off this project. They are so easy to make – I bet you are wondering how I made them too!
You’ll need a wooden skewer or dowel along with your heat tool and Heavy Spray Starch. Yep, that’s it! You’ll also need a bit of patience as you make them since it does require some dry time tho. I’m not sure how they would hold up outside, but since I’m planning on using this project inside my home I wasn’t worried about our heavy Georgia humidity of late.
Want to see how we made them? Here is a video for you.

I’ve also included a link for the pumpkins and PDF pattern on this Tutorial for you.
Want to make some of these too? Here is the information on the wooded pumpkins for you that I found on Amazon along with a PDF pattern for this pumpkin.
I really love these gatherings we have a lot of fun together and it’s a great time to share what’s been happening in our lives, and relax too. Here are a couple of pictures for you of some of the finished projects.

Today’s card is bright and cheerful and great for summer
So what do you think? Love the summer time feel – we are just starting to heat up here in North Georgia and with Memorial Day right around the corner I’m looking forward to getting back in the pool. (That is once we get the new liner installed, our old one decided to give up on us last week as we were preparing to open it.)
Here is my tutorial for you so you can make some too and spread a little sunshine
I love the Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay combination that I used for this project. However, after I made it I realized that the Bright Color Collection Paper was no longer available, you may already have some which is great. If not the good news is we’ll have a new stack of patterns in the Brights Color Collection (152487) available in June when the 2020 Annual Catalog launches, so you can get some then. Or if you don’t want to wait check out the Follow Your Art Designer Series Paper (retiring 149489) which has a great Coastal Cabana pattern in it and it’s available at a fantastic price while it lasts!
Today’s project is one that I created for my team’s Peak Princess event back in February and so I thought I’d share it with you today.
This little bag holds a set of cards that are great for all occasions since, so it is a great gift that is easily customized. And since the little birds are colored with our Stampin’ Blends, you can recreate your favorite feathered friend.
Here is the PDF for you.

March’s Paper Pumpkin kit had 2 stamp sets – the one that came with the kit and then a bonus set that coordinated with it. And it seemed like a wonderful kit for right now. I really enjoyed putting it together and creating with the sets themselves. So today I thought I’d share my alternate project with you that I created as a thank you card for those who subscribe to the kit.
I use the Note Cards & Envelopes for these cards since they are a great value and wonderful for newer stampers since you receive the card base and envelope for one low price.
Here is my video tutorial showing you how I created this card – why not take a few minutes to check it out?
.
And a PDF that you can print off with a complete supply list
I couldn’t resist these boots they are so cute – I’ve used the Rocco Rose Ink spot from last months kit for this next alternate that has the same basic layout but adds a layer of color for the background too.
Which do you like better? Why not leave me a comment and let me know?
