Stampin’ Up Humming Along Bundle – Heat Emboss in any Color with a Stamparatus Video Tutorial

February 20, 2019

It happens every catalog…I see a bundle…pass it over…then, say…
hmmm, I am going to take a second look at it…

And, by golly, I LOVE it!! The Stampin’ Up Humming Along Bundle is just fabulous!
Look at that huge bloom and that lovely hummingbird.

I even made it stand out more on my card by heat embossing it in black.
Watch my video to see how I did it with Memento, Versamark, and my handy Stamparatus…

Notice that die cut negative in the middle of the birthday card? Isn’t that cool?
I can’t wait to use the blue die cut that came out on some other card.

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…

SU Tea Together with Tea Time Framelits

February 15, 2019

Time to relax with some tea after an emotional day. I am at my bestie’s house in my hometown, what a comforting place to be after my grandfather’s funeral today. And what a celebration of his life it was…complete with a 21 gun salute outside to honor his service in WW II.
The sermon fit perfectly- “The Measure of a Man”. The minister’s points reflected how the measurement of a man is seen in those he touched.

So, as I sit in refection, waiting for the teapot to whistle
(yes, she always uses a teapot with a whistler while I do my boring hot water machine) …
I thought I would show you a card I made using the Stampin’ Up Tea Together Stamp Set with the Sale-a-Bration Tea Time Framelits.

Oh, how I love that Lace Embossing Folder. I actually used the debossed side of the folder.
I love that both sides are equally stunning!

You can get the Tea Time Framelits FREE with a $100 purchase during Sale-a-Bration.

Stampin’ Up Dear Doily Sympathy

February 11, 2018

I made these sympathy cards for a swap last week using the Stampin’ Up Dear Doily Bundle.
Sadly, I know a lot of us are having to use them as of late.
My prayer is all of you who are suffering loss will find comfort in the wonderful memories you have spent with your loved ones.

A comforting card to let someone know you care in a time of grief and loss. My Grandpa Rick, in his mid-nineties, just went to Heaven to meet up with my Grandma Lil on Saturday. December would have been 75 years of marriage for them. He was alone for the last two years awaiting the time when he would see her again. I rejoice because of his faith in Jesus and his eternal resting place in Heaven with Jesus and Grandma.
