A card that has caught my attention recently is one where the front of the card has been cut into a triangle and the cut pieces are used to create three points along the bottom. I first saw this card made by Sam Calcott with Mixed Up Craft. She made a 6" x 6" card which is a large card with associated issues: you would have to make an envelope ...
Autumn is my favourite season – it came to be because growing up in Montreal I absolutely loved the changing of the colours; the gorgeous maple leaf trees proudly showing off their glowing yellows, oranges, and reds against the bright blue sky. I chose to use the Gorgeous Leaves stamp bundle for this card. The…
Who doesn’t love a cute penguin? My daughter has loved them since she was little and still, at 29 this year, she will appreciate yet another penguin-themed Christmas tree ornament. She has quite a few now. Speaking of penguins, if you have not yet watched Netflix’s Penguin Town, this is a must-see. While looking through…
A single fun fold is a great card layout but a double makes it more interesting. You basically create two z-folds and then lay one on top of the other. I used the In Symmetry stamp set and the Sweet Symmetry designer series paper to create this card. There is a suite of products on…
I am always on the hunt for projects that use our designer series papers and this is a perfect one. I love how it shows off both sides of the paper. Using 12″ x 12″ paper, you can make two cards from one sheet. If you reverse the paper for the second card you will…
It’s another Seashore Stampers Blog Hop with my fellow island demonstrators. This month’s theme is weddings. Although modern weddings are very creative in their design and floral choices, I still appreciate the traditional rose for wedding bouquets. My first wedding bouquet consisted of large and small yellow roses. They were a favourite of my grandmother’s…
The Pansy Patch stamp set and coordinating dies are a delightful stamping experience along with the gorgeous designer series paper. It certainly looks intimidating with the number of stamps and dies but there are many videos showing how the pansies are stamped, using the two-step stamping technique to create the cute little pansy faces. As…
While browsing the internet last week, I came across a fun fold by Brenda Quintana. It was interesting, particularly the tip she showed using our Simply Scored Scoring Tool, item #122334, which I will demonstrate in the video below. I am very pleased with the way this card turned out. I chose to keep to…
It’s time for another blog hop with my fellow demonstrators from around the island. Our theme for July is to create a project for Canada Day or just use red and white colours. Since we are not having a barbecue for Canada Day, not sending out invitations, I decided to make a card using red…
