Casing the Catalog - Big on Birthdays

Hi everyone!

The Stampin' Up! catalogs are a great source of ideas for cards and projects using the products featured in the catalogs.  And the term CASE (copy and share everything) is a perfect acronym for everything Stampin' Up! represents! So today, I am casing a card from the Occasions Catalog.  The inspiration for today's card came from the card shown in the upper right corner of page 6.

Here is my card:

Hooray - Twist and Pop

Hi Stampers!

Today I created my first Twist and Pop style card.  I am considering this style card for a stamping get together I am hosting in a couple of weeks, so I wanted to try one myself before deciding.  What do you think group?  Do you want to make this style card on the 11th?






My family loved this card when I showed it to them.  Are you ready to wow your friends and family too?

Tie Dyed Custom Tees

Hello stampers!

Before I share my cards for today, I want to invite you to go on over to my new Facebook page and
'like' it.  Going forward, I will be posting more there and fewer posts to my blog.  Just click here to check it out!  As the page gets up and going, I will be able to start hosting live events from there, among other things!  Hope to "see" you there!

Next up, my next Workshop by Mail will be an Easter themed workshop.  This year, Easter is on April 16.  So, your request for the workshop must be received by March 25 to allow time to get it back to you!  

I'm switching it up a little.  The workshop will be available for purchase for $10.00.  You will receive an email with photos and instructions on how to assemble to projects as well as a materials list.  No materials will included.  The projects will include the Basket Bunch bundle products and the Easter Message stamp set.   When you place an order for $50.00 or more by March 20, the projects will be sent to you automatically.  No additional purchase is needed!  If you have any questions on how this will work, just let know!

Now, on to my cards for today.  I wasn't sure about these cards until my young adult children all commented, "wow, how cool, Mom!"  So, with their stamp of approval, I am sharing with you today.

Some Time

Hello stampers!

Time for a card from my very talented sister.  As I was looking through her cards, I came across the card I am sharing today.  Yes, there is a retired stamp used on this card....but it's so darn cute, I had to share anyhow!



Isn't that so cute?

Wishing you a crafty weekend!!!

Perfect Day

Hi everyone!

It's funny sometimes how a card is born.  This is one of those cards!  A couple of weeks ago, I decided to try out the new sponge brayers on an embossed image.  As it sat on my desk for a a couple weeks, that one strip evolved into the card I am sharing today.
