01.10.2025…..Happy Friday, my stampin’ friends! It’s already time for another TGIF Challenge! We are so glad you are joining us this week’s “Sketch Challenge”! Sketch challenges are one of my faves, and are always a great way to get that creativity flowing.

For my card, I wanted to create something neutral, but with a bit of a shimmer, and the Nature’s Sweetness Specialty Designer Series Paper was just perfect for that. I also used the Nested Essential Dies, Greetings of the Season Dies, and Textured Florals Dies. Hope this card inspires you to create a card or project, using this week’s challenge!

12.23.2024….Happy Monday, my stampin’ friends! I just had to create at least one more card with my favorite bundle…..More Than Autumn. I created this card as a winter-themed card, but not necessarily a Christmas card. For the background, I used a combination of the Winter Meadow and Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper collections. Hope this card inspires you to create at least a winter-themed card or project with some of your favorite stamp sets and products!

12.21.2024….Happy Saturday, my stampin’ friends! I realize it’s just four days until Christmas, by I’m still trying to create a few more holiday projects with some of my favorite products.

I also had some of the Real Red and White Adhesive-Backed Peppermints left in my stash, and they were just perfect for this card. Hope this card inspires you to create at least one more holiday project with some of your favorite stamp sets and products!

11.23.2024…..Happy Saturday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I’m sharing a card that I created for this month’s Stampin’ Fancy Friday sketch challenge! This challenge is overflowing with so much creativity and inspiration, and each of our team members created a fancy card, using their own unique interpretation of the sketch.

For this sketch challenge, I took a bit of a subtle approach. I decided to use Blending Brushes (along with Copper Clay, Petal Pink, and Flirty Flamingo) to create three different sections in the background. I also used a Water Painter to splatter White Craft Ink. Created with the Sophisticated Sled Dies, Greetings of the Season Stamp Set, Deckled Rectangles Dies, and the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder.

Be sure to join us to see what our Stampin’ Fancy Friday team created. We have a total of 25 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!
