03.12.2024…..Happy Tuesday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I decided to use up a few the bits and pieces that I had leftover from a few other projects. I had some Basic White Thick Cardstock that I had already inked and watercolored, so I used that to create the flowers and leaves. I also had a Basic White Thick Cardstock rectangle, which was die cut with one of the Deckled Rectangle Dies, and also embossed with the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. I just had to add the card base, some ribbon, and embellishments…and I was done! Hope these inspire you to create a card or project with a few of your leftover bits and pieces!

03.11.2024…..Happy Monday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I decided to use more of my Designer Series Paper stash, and created these four little treat holders. Each treat holder is made with a half sheet of Subtles or Brights 6″ x 6″ DSP. Each piece of the DSP was cut in half (on the diagonal), then folded into a mini envelope. I was then able to create two treat holders from each piece of DSP. I also used extra strips of coordinating DSP to create little bands around each treat holder. Hope these inspire you to create a few 3D projects, using your extra DSP as well!

Hope this card inspires inspires you to create a card or project using your bits and pieces of DSP as well!

02.06.2024…..Happy Tuesday, my stampin’ friends! I’ve been having so much fun playing with products from the adorable Bee Mine Suite…..from the Stampin’ Up! January – April 2024 Mini Catalog! And…..today, I wanted to create something a little unexpected with Bee Builder Punch from that suite. First, I added Flirty Flamingo and Sweet Sorbet to some Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper. I then used the large heart from the Bee Builder Punch to create the “Love You” card, and the bee part of the punch to create flower petals for the “Sweet” card. Hope these cards inspire to try something fun and unexpected with this suite, too!
