Sweet Sorbet Butterfly Card
I'm afraid you're going to start thinking I can't create with any colors or paper that doesn't involve the Sweet Sorbet Designer Series Paper. I promise that's not true! Tomorrow is the last day of Sale-A-Bration and then I'll be moving on to other things . . . but I don't want you to miss out on anything Sale-A-Bration! Continue reading

Handmade Congratulations Baby Banner
I was asked to make a "Congratulations" Banner for a baby shower this weekend. Naturally the free Sale-a-Bration Banner Kit seemed like the perfect answer for accents in the banner. (I'm going to have to stock up on a couple of these to have around for those banner requests!!) The couple having the baby does not know if it is a boy or girl so the colors for the shower are yellow and green with strawberries so of course all those different aspects need to be incorporated.

Introducing Our New Thinlit Dies
I would like to introduce our new Thinlit Dies! Mine are on the way but I don't have them yet so I thought I'd share a short video clip Stampin' Up! made to show how the new Thinlit Dies work.

I am going to start working on the Fall Stampin' Class Schedule soon so if there is something you would like to see on the schedule, this would be a great time to contact me! Thank you for stopping by to visit today! Continue reading

New Clock for the StampThat Studio
Yesterday I went to work on a new clock for the StampThat Studio! I wanted to use some of our retired Timeless Portrait DSP so my clock will match the decor of my desk which is close by. I pulled out tons of dies, in fact, you wouldn't want to see the mess I've left on my table around the Big Shot! I have a lot of clean up to do! Here I used one of the Apothecary Accents Framelits, a retired alphabet die, some Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding and one of the new Cute Clips from the Spring Catalog. I discovered something new when I was putting together number ten. Did you know our Continue reading

Dress Up Framelit Die Fun
We had a lot of fun at the StampThat team meeting last evening! We made a couple projects and snacked and talked business . . . and then we pulled out the Dress Up Framelit dies! Several of the ladies commented that when they saw the dies in the catalog, they weren't too excited about them. I'll admit, I was the same way, until I realized just how much variety can be had with these dies! When you start thinking outside the box a little, using different papers and adding/taking away paper, trying different accessories, there is just so much variety to be had! Look what the team members Continue reading

Dress Up Handmade Card
Finally a card to share with you using one of the Dress Up dies. I used the Tea for Two DSP, some crotchet trim and the new Flower Trim. It's simple but cute, don't you think? I look forward to making this card with the participants at the All Occasions Card Class tonight at the Mason Dixon Library in Stewartstown, PA. I'm keeping this post short today, I have lots of handmade Valentines to work on! I'll share them with you before too long. Thank you for stopping to visit today! Continue reading

Stampin’ Up! Dress Up Formal
I'm so excited to finally show you the special project I made with the dresses from the Dress Up Framelit Dies. I really wish the picture did this justice! I had so much fun making formal gowns with lots of bling! This dress is made with Stampin' Up! Red Glimmer Paper and our rhinestones and then fitted onto the dress form. So very pretty! Wouldn't this make a pretty bridal gown? It wouldn't have to be a bridal gown though, that's part of the beauty of it! Oh the fun that can be had with the Dress Up framelit dies! If you like what you see, you can order your own set of Continue reading
