Well hello and welcome to Wednesday, commonly called “hump day”. Today’s card features some bold texture with pops of colour. It’s hard to see on the black, but I used the Distressed Tile 3D embossing folder(162189) for a stand-out background. The flowers are from and oldie but goody, the Textured Floral stamp set(161229) and matching […]

TOADSTOOLS ALL AROUND
Hi there and welcome! Today I am featuring toadstools, yup, those pesky but cool-looking plants that show up randomly in our yard! These are from the Inspirational Sketches stamp set(162684) and I could not put the set away without using this arrangement of toadstools! I’m also going with a monochromatic layout with the Pecan Pie […]
HOW ABOUT SOME PUMPKIN PIE
Well, pumpkin pie is certainly on the menu, I’m talking about a Stampin’ Up! cardstock colour. There, like the card base for this zinnia card. I used the Simply Zinnia Bundle(163480) and made good use of the dies to create these pretty pumpkin pie flowers as well as the Zinnia 3D Embossing folder(163337). I’m playing […]
A LITTLE CASING GOING ON
Happy Tuesday and Welcome! Today’s card is Cased from page 34 of the 2024 Sept-Dec Mini Catalogue. Now, a Case means that you can copy the project exactly – OR – you can use any of the elements such as the layout. That is what I did with this card, I loved the layout and […]
FANCY FALL

BIRDS & PUSSY WILLOWS
Hi there. I see a few pussy-willows along the side of the road up here and love them! So, why not use a design that features them! This design is just one of the pretty designs in the Nests of Winter designer paper pack(164183), isn’t it pretty with those little birds sitting on the pussy-willow? […]
A FEW MORE WILDFLOWERS
Hi and welcome to Friday! I thought I’d end the week with a few more wildflowers for you to enjoy. This is a really cool card that uses the Wildflower Designs Bundle(163334) and Window Sheets(142314). I didn’t want to take away from those beautiful flowers in the background, so I framed them with that lovely […]
AUTUMN INSPIRATION
Autumn is such a beautiful time, with the leaves changing and showing a collection of spectacular colours. I tried to capture those colours in today’s card. In Autumn, the sky tends to change colour just a bit, so I picked it up with the card base of Pretty Peacock. The leaves were stamped onto Crushed […]
