06.01.2024…..Happy Saturday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I’m sharing a card that I created with products from the Country Woods Suite. This suite is one of faves, and I am absolutely obsessed with the Country Woods Designer Series Paper and the Country Lace Designer Series Paper. I also combined it with the Flowers of Beauty Dies (for the leaves and the little flowers). Hope this card inspires you create a card or projects with a mix and match of your favorite products, too!
05.24.2024…..Happy Friday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I wanted to share a card that I created for this month’s Stampin’ Fancy Friday challenge! It’s a “Case a Fancy Friend” challenge! This means that when you see a card and are so inspired by it…then you copy it (or selective copy) and share what you create! We each chose one of our Stampin’ Fancy Friday team members, and “cased” one of their cards. How much fun is that??? That being said, I decided to choose the amazing Brenda Nelson @stampwithbrenda !
Be sure to join us to see what our Stampin’ Fancy Friday team created and just who on the team they CASEd! We have 24 projects to share, and each one is AMAZING!!!

05.19.2024…..Happy Sunday, my stampin’ friends! For our Stamping Sunday Blog Hop this month, we are showcasing projects created with “something old” (featured in the previous Stampin’ Up! 2023-2024 catalogs) and “something new” (featured in the current Stampin’ Up! 2024-2025 Annual Catalog). For my “something old” , I used the Textured Floral Stamp Set and Textured Floral Dies. For my “something new”, I used two of the new 2024-2026 In Colors…..Pretty in Pink and Petunia Pop. Hope this card inspires you to create a fun, unique card using this week’s challenge!
05.17.2024…..Happy Friday, my stampin’ friends! It’s already time for another TGIF Challenge! This week we have a wonderful inspiration challenge for you…..Picture Perfect Backgrounds! Inspiration challenges are one of my faves, and it seems like y’all really love them, too! For my take on this challenge, I decided to use a Water Painter, along with Daffodil Delight and Balmy Blue, to add a wash of color to Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper. Hope this card inspires you to create a fun, unique card using this week’s challenge!
05.12.2024…..Happy Mother’s Day, my stampin’ friends! One of my favorite things to do is to mix and match products, including Designer Series Paper, from other suites and bundles. That being said, I paired products from the Mediterranean Blooms Suite and the Country Woods Suite. I was such a great match, that I ended up creating several cards with this combo of products. Hope these cards inspire you to create some cards or projects with a mix of your favorite products as well!
05.10.2024…..Happy Friday, my stampin’ friends! I finally got a chance to play with the Spotlight on Nature Bundle. The detail in each of the images is fantastic, and are so much fun to watercolor. I used a Water Painter, along with Flirty Flamingo, Poppy Parade, Old Olive, Mossy Meadow, and a light wash of Pool Party for the background. Hope this card inspires you to create a card or project with the Spotlight on Nature Bundle as well!
04.21.2024…..Happy Sunday, my stampin’ friends! For our Stamping Sunday Blog Hop this month, we are showcasing projects created with one (or more) of our favorite techniques.
For my technique, I used Blending Brushes to add several ink colors to Basic White Thick Cardstock, added some speckling, and used on of the Notes of Nature Dies to cut out the leaves. Hope this month’s theme inspires you to create a card or project, using your favorite techniques as well!
04.19.2024…..Happy Friday, my stampin’ friends! It’s already time for another TGIF Challenge! This week we have a wonderful inspiration challenge for you! Inspiration challenges are one of my faves, and it seems like y’all really love them, too! For my take on this challenge, I decided to fill the background of my card with flowers, instead of butterflies. Hope this card inspires you to create a fun, unique card using this week’s challenge!
04.15.2024…..Happy Monday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I wanted to create a card with a spring vibe. So…..I decided to use the Flowers of Beauty Dies, from the new Unbounded Beauty Suite. This gorgeous collection of products will be available beginning May 1, 2024, from upcoming Stampin’ Up! 2024-2025 Annual Catalog. I also added in the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder (for the background) and used the Sweetly Scripted Stamp Set for the heat-embossed sentiment. Hope this card inspires you to create a spring-themed card or project as well!
04.14.2024…..Happy Sunday, my stampin’ friends! Today, I’m sharing the card I created this month for our Stampin’ Fancy Friday Challenge. It’s a fabulous Technique Challenge, which is always a great source of inspiration! Each team member created a fancy project showcasing their favorite papercrafting technique.
One of my favorite techniques is using Blending Brushes to create a colorful background, and then using a Water Painter to splatter water droplets. For this card, I also added some “stamped off” text images, and then heat-embossed a few flowers that I colored in with Stampin’ Blends Markers. For my color combo, I chose Flirty Flamingo and Petal Pink. Hope this card inspires you to create a card or project, using one of your favorite techniques, too!
Be sure to join us to see what our Stampin’ Fancy Friday team created. We so many amazing projects to share this month, and each using their own unique interpretation of the challenge!
Then…..you create a card or project, with inspiration of your own (or use one from our team)…..using that month’s challenge! Share your project on IG or FB and tag us by using #stampinfancyfriday or #fancyfridaychallenges in your post.
