Month: April 2023

I will be doing a Paper Share for the NEW Annual Catalog- Tune in Monday to see my New 2023-24 Stampin’ UP! Catalog Unboxing!

April 8, 2023

Hello, friends!

Just wanted to let you know that I am doing another

Paper and Ribbon/Accessories Share

for the NEW 2023-24 Stampin’ UP! Annual Catalog.

Look for details by the end of the week:)

I just got back from my monthly four days in Pittsburgh that “fill my cup.” Boy, is it fun to see all the girls each month to craft and share our lives. I am blessed beyond measure! I would say my cup runneth over with joy seeing each and every one of them!

So, I flew up to Pittsburgh on a super early flight on pre-order day! Imagine how dicey it was to pre-order on the plane to Pittsburgh with sketchy internet and a bazillion demos pre-ordering and the Last Chance Products Sale starting for everyone!

I was so excited to see the boxes in the foyer waiting for me last night at 11:15 pm when I got home from the airport (and the sink full of four days of dishes, too- hubby was working on a project all week and did not have time to load the dishwasher…lol) but I was still on a high from being in Pittsburgh with my friends that I happily got the sink cleaned…but the anticipation of getting the products into my hands…I am waiting to do in a video this weekend!

Check back Monday to see

my unboxing video of

pre-order products!

Stampin’ UP! Rejoice with Him

April 6, 2023

As we reflect today on Good Friday, let us prepare our hearts for our Easter celebration and Jesus’ victory over death! I love the humbly sketched image of the Savior of the World.

The simple images were dressed up with texture on the gatefold panels. I used the ovals in the Framed Florets Dies to die cut Jesus. The dove was die cut with the retired Stitched Shapes first and then bordered with a circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies.

The inside is super simple, too! I did double ovals on the inside of the front image to create a polished look. I put two of the sentiments together.

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…

Stampin’ UP! Heavenly Hollyhocks Split Lattice Card Video Tutorial

April 5, 2023

I am sure you have seen the fun Split Lattice Card Technique floating around the internet! I think it can be traced back to Bibi Cameron from the UK. I have seen so many different samples of this technique so I though I would throw one in the ring!

I used the Stampin’ UP! Heavenly Hollyhocks Bundle for my card since I had not seen it made with that yet! Once you open it, it has another layer to it…

It is quite easy to do…take a look at the video I made:

Measurements: Card Base: 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1/2″, Cut off 3-1/4″ off the bottom of the front of the card. Take that 3-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ piece and cut off (5) 1/2″ x 4-1/4″ pieces for the horizontal strips of the lattice- you will be left with a 3/4″ x 4-1/4″ piece you cut in half to make (2) 3/8″ x 4-1/4″ pieces for the vertical strips of the lattice, Inside Basic White folded card is 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored at 4-1/4″ with a sliver cut off the 5-1/2″ side so it fits inside better at the fold of the card, DSP: 3-1/2″ x 4-1/4″

List Updates:

  • Grouped the Bundle products together – some components of the bundle will be on sale* so the bundled price may not be cheaper.  I’ve crossed through the bundle if it will be cheaper to purchase separately.
  • Moved the Bundles that are carrying over to the new catalog but the bundled discount is ending to the bottom.

Under References

  • Reconfig means the product will still be available but packaged differently.  They are changing the markers for next year so the current colors are on the list.
  • Stamp Curr/Punch Curr – means 1 part of a bundle remained current (punch or stamp) and the other half retired.

Hopefully, you can make sense of it all!

Make sure you have REFILLS for your ink pads!

Stampin’ UP! Conversation Bubbles Bundle

April 3, 2023

HELLO, Lemon Lime Twist…

HI, Berry Burst…

LUV YA, and so happy we are coming back to the Stampin’ UP! Color Collections!

So excited that these colors are coming back- they have never “really” left my stamp room…ok- that may give you a sense of my inability to let things go…lol. But the Stampin’ UP! Conversation Bubbles Bundle is leaving us…it’ s a fun one:) I really like the long die that cut across the bottom that could put a dream in the sky!

A favorite embellishment of mine is leaving, too…the Black Matte Dots…sniff, sniff…

Just a simple little added bubble to the inside…
