Forever Fern Easy Cards

I did my Facebook Live on how to make these simple cards using my Forever Fern Bundle!  A few stamps and a couple of die cuts and voila!!

Paper Pumpkin

August Paper Pumpkin is great and helpful to celebrate all those who do meAningful work among us.

Sunflower Class

This is a class I am offering for free with a $60 order in September!  I will have all the pieces cut for you and you just put them together!  PDF instructions will also be sent to you!

Product Share

I sent this product share out to a friend who just wanted a sample of the new in colours paper.  It was  9 sheets of cardstock,  4 yards of ribbon and some enamel dots.   It was $10 which included the shipping.   If you would like a share with some cardstock and ribbon - just let me know!  

Time for Sunflowers!!

I love our team meetings!  Each month we get sent a package of cards to make and we have a great meeting by Zoom!   This month we used the Sunflower Dies and stamps!  This card and little box designed by Ronda Wade were part of the set for this month!

Scribble and Spritz

I could not get a Facebook Live to work so just did a video on how to make these lovely cards.  You colour a block with Stampin’ Write markers, spritz with water and put the block on the paper and it turns out so lovely!

Love of Leaves

If you love leaves you are going to love Love of Leaves!    The dies cut and emboss!  The leaves are so pretty!   This is the last set of cards from Creative Convention.  I am not a plaid person but I have really enjoyed making all the designs by those who ran the Creative Convention!

Plaid Gift Cards

This was another set of cards we were taught how to make during the Creative Convention I went to last weekend online.   These cute little gift cards all fit into this pizza box you can get now from Stampin’ Up! 

Each one of these cards holds a gift card you can give for various occasions!   I can make this into a class if you would like to make one of these!

Embossing with Dies

You can emboss with any die in your collection!  Use your Big Shot Platform, a regular plate, a Silicone Craft sheet, paper, your die and a shim, and 1 more plate. 

Then you can make these lovely cards.  These are all dies which I used to emboss instead of cut!

Creative Plaid Convention

I recently attended an online convention full of great ideas and cards classes!  We were given a lot of product and cut cards all ready for us to turn into cards.  These cards are great for many occasions and the box is big enough for quite a few treats!!

Peaceful Poppies and Ornate Frames

I was doing my research on Pinterest and found a card design I liked and made it my own.  Pinterest is great for ideas.  I used  my Ornate Layers Dies and my Poppy Moments Dies to make both of these cards.   I used a texture stamp from Painted Poppies to Stamp a background on the So Saffron Card.  I didn’t use it on the Soft Sea Foam Card.  Not sure which I like better.  What do you think?

In the Pines Beauty

I joined the Creative Convention and it was so amazing!  We had great business lessons and made lots of great cards!   I changed a few things on this one as I am going to make a card class with it.  In the Pines is a lovely bundle.  You can stamp trees and then cut them out with the dies or even use the dies alone.  I probably wouldn’t have ordered the Plaid Tidings DSP but it came with our package and I am enjoying using it. 

West Coast Creator August Blog Hop

        Welcome to our West Coast Creator Blog Hop for August!!  There are so many great new sets in the new mini catalogue that it was hard to choose.    I hope you get some great ideas

from all the creations from our wonderful team!

    I chose the Gift Wrapped Bundle as my feature from the new mini catalogue on Page 12.    I tried to make cards from this bundle that were not only for Christmas but could be used as general birthday as well - cards for men too!!

This is a Christmas card which I kind of cased from the catalogue itself on page 72.   You will find all kinds of great card ideas in Stampin' Up catalogues.    They had made a box and I took their idea but made  a card using Garden Green and the Pointsettia PLace DSP on page 15.

I thought this was a neat way to use the ribbon for a birthday card.   I just punched one out of the DSP and then one out of Mossy Meadow to go behind it.    I like to be able to use what I purchase all year round.   The DSP is from the Ornate Garden DSP on Page 65 in the main catalogue.    I thought the Dandelions 3D embossing folder looked nice in the middle.

There are lovely stamps in the Gift Wrapped stamp set that comes with this bundle.  They make a nice background instead of using DSP.    The sentiment is from that stamp set as well.  I coloured the bow using my Highland Heather Stampin' Blends.  I punched out some sprigs with vellum to put behind the bow with my Sprig punch.  The gold metallic trim is from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack.

I hope I have inspired you take a closer look at this bundle.   Now you can click on the links below to be inspired by the other team members!  Thanks for stopping by!!!
