10.30.2024…..Happy Wednesday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I’m sharing a card that I created for this month’s Stampin’ Fancy Friday challenge! It’s an “Not a Card” challenge! Our team members each created a fancy project (not a card)…..think 3D, home decor, scrapbooking, etc. This challenge is overflowing with somuch creativity and inspiration!

 I love to make gift tags for any occasion, but I think holiday tags are my favorite. To create the paper for diecutting, I used Blending Brushes to add Petal Pink, Flirty Flamingo, and Melon Mambo to Basic White Thick Cardstock. I used a Water Painter to splatter water droplets, and then used the Water Painter with White Craft Ink to add more splattering. I also used the Decorative Trees Dies, Forever Forest Dies, Golden Greenery Dies, and the Greetings of the Season Bundle.

Be sure to join us to see what our Stampin’ Fancy Friday team created. We have a total of 26 amazing projects to share this month, and each using their own unique interpretation of the challenge!

Then…..when you CASE one of our SFF teammates, share your project on IG or FB and tag us by using #stampinfancyfriday or #fancyfridaychallenges in your post. We will share in our stories to inspire others as well!

10.20.2024…..Happy Sunday, my stampin’ friends! For our Stamping Sunday Blog Hop this month, it is all about rich comforts and rustic elegance. Think rich autumnal colours and warm winter comforts (food, clothing and hot drinks) or something rustic and elegant that fits the season of where you live. This theme was such a great source of inspiration for me, and I hope it is for you, too!

I choose to go with rustic elegance vibe for my card, and I instantly knew I wanted to use the Country Woods Designer Series Paper. I also decided to use one of the Painted Lavender Dies to create the wreath, and of course I had to create a bow with the Black & Very Vanilla Large Check Ribbon.
