You need to learn these cool paper tricks

On 4 August the fabulous new mini catalog goes live and I have a couple of really cool paper tricks to share with you using the soon-to-be-released Trimming the Town product suite. 

The Trimming the Town designer paper is part of the Trimming the Town product suite - a super fun collection of products that is perfect for Christmas but for so many other projects too. 

Here's a photo of the Coming Home bundle, which is part of this suite - and is needed for my paper tricks:

I used this bundle along with the Old World Paper 3D embossing folder to create amazing texture on the card layer:

Old World Paper 3D Embossing Folder

I explain the paper tricks in the video below. I also share bonus tips along the way.

How to make a beautiful motivational card

Is is possible to make a card without stamp sets and inks? Absolutely and in today's card idea and video I am going to show you how. 

The products I am going to use on my card come from the World of Good product suite:

World Of Good Suite Collection
$104.50

 

 

 

 

Do you have to buy the entire suite? No. But I am not sure why you wouldn't if you love it as much as I do. I did promise that today's card uses no stamps or ink, didn't I? So you could just order the paper and card pack at my online store. (see link on the right side of this page)

From this suite I chose to use the World of Good designer paper:

World Of Good Specialty Designer Series Paper
$15.00

 

 

 

 

And along with the paper I used the World of Good Memories & More Card Pack:

World Of Good Memories & More Card Pack
$11.00

 

 

 

 

 

A lot of crafters think that this card pack is only for memory keeping and completely miss the fact that this product has other uses, like I am going to show you today. 

This card is soooo easy to make. All you do is cut card stock, adhere them together, add the card with the phrase and three stickers. Taa-daa!

 

Stamp set: none

Ink: none

Paper and cutting dimensions:
        Whisper White: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"
        World of Good: 5 1/4" x 4"
        Misty Moonlight: 4 1/2" x 3 1/2"
                

Other: World of Good Memories & More Card Pack (153600); World of Good Specialty designer series paper (152491); Stampin' Seal (152813)

And don't forget the envelope! Sometimes all you need is a little touch to make it fun too. 

I created a video showing you how to make this card, along with several bonus tips that will take your card to the next level. 

 

Here's how to take your projects to the next level!

Do you want a playful way to take your projects to the next level? I will show you how using the new Foam Adhesive Sheets!

Foam Adhesive Sheets
$8.00

 

 

 

 

You can take these foam adhesive sheets and die-cut them to make a colorful and striking card idea. 

For my card, I also used the Forever Greenery designer paper and the Forever Flourishing dies. I have made a lot of projects using this product suite to scroll back through my blog to see more ideas. 

Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper
$11.50

Forever Flourishing Dies
$36.00

 

A lot of crafters feel you can only use the stamp set that goes with a pack of dies (bundled) but that's not so. I encourage you to use your dies without the stamp set and use your stamp sets without your dies. This will help broaden your crafting experience. 

Last week I created a video introduced the Playful Alphabet dies and used these to make a gorgeous scrapbook page. (Click here to see the post and video) On that video I promised that I would show you a card idea - which is what I did today. 

First, let's have a second look at the Playful Alphabet dies:

Playful Alphabet Dies
$34.00

There are so many uses for these fun dies and I think today's card will blow your mind!

 

Stamp set: none

Ink: none

Paper and cutting dimensions:
        Pear Pizzazz: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"; 3 1/2" x 2 1/2" 
        Forever Greenery paper: 4" x 5 1/4"; scrap approx. 3 3/4" x 1"
        Pretty Peacock: 1 1/4" x 4"
        Whisper White: 1 1/2" x 4"

Other: Foam Adhesive Sheets (152815); Forever Flourishing dies (152714); Playful Alphabet dies (152706); Whale of a Time sequins (152461); Multipurpose Liquid Glue, die-cutting machine

Here's my video - watch for my bonus tips along the way! 

See the perfect project for a world traveler

Do you like adventures? Are you a world traveler? Do you have lots of photos and memories to preserve? Then today's project is perfect for you! 

This week I got the new Playful Alphabet dies in the mail and I am so excited to introduce them to you and show you just one way you can use them:

Playful Alphabet Dies
$34.00

 

 

 

 

There are many things I love about these dies:

• the size (3/4" x 3/4") - not too big, not too small, just right
• duplicate letters: A, E, I, L, N, O, P, R, S, T - so clever Stampin' Up!
• numbers! 
• punctuation

I am excited because this means personalization. Think card making and creating someone's name on the front: for birthdays, baby cards, graduation, and more. I will admit that I have many scrapbook pages without titles because I wanted to use dies instead of trying to hand print a title on them. I can now go back and add titles or fun phrases to these pages using Playful Alphabet. 

I also used the Beautiful World bundle on today's project. I have certainly got my money's worth from this bundle in one short month. Scroll back through my blog to see the projects. Two of my recent faves this clean and simple card here and this card technique here. 

Beautiful World Bundle
$48.50

 

 

 

 

Here's a photo of my semi-finished page - I will add journaling boxes later. For the page itself I used a sheet of the World of Good designer paper - perfect for this project, don't you think?

Playful Alphabet Scrapbook page

        World of Good: 12" x 12" sheet

Other: Playful Alphabet dies (152706); Copper Foil Sheets (142020); World of Good Memories & More card pack (153600); SNAIL adhesive, Mini Stampin' Dimensionals

Be confident when using an interesting embossing folder

This week I have another World of Good card and video to share. I think I have already confessed that I bought the entire product suite a couple of weeks ago and am having a blast using it. 

 

I am not sure why I am so crazy about this suite but I think it is the colors and patterns. And of course as I used to travel a lot for work the theme of the designs and Beautiful World stamp set resonate with me.

And I, like you, always need products that can be used for more of a masculine theme and this set is perfect for that. Note: Father's Day is next weekend! 

Today's card strongly features the Old World Paper 3D embossing folder. I really love this folder and the kind of texture it creates on paper layers. I also love that each side, after embossed, has two results; one I call the 'outies' which is more prominent and the other side I call the 'innies' which is more subtle. 

My original thought was that the Night of Navy and Seaside Spray squares would be plain layers on my card, but when I was embossing the Whisper White layer I instantly decided to emboss these two colors as well. I am really glad I did because the embossed texture makes the card more interesting.

So my advice to you is to be confident when using your embossing folders and try embossing more than one layer on your next project. 

 

Stamp set: Beautiful World bundle (154091)

Ink: Night of Navy

Paper and cutting dimensions:
        Whisper White: 11" x 4 1/4"; 3 3/4" x 5"; 3 3/4" x 3/4"
        Night of Navy: 2" square
        Seaside Spray: 2" square; scraps for swirls

Other: Old World Paper 3D embossing folder (153200), Metallic Pearls, Multipurpose Liquid Glue; die-cutting machine

Here are two other photos of my card from different angles:

How to congratulate someone on a new beginning

You know how it is. You get your hands on a brand new catalog and as you leaf through it you suddenly stop and screech - yell - moan - shout: oh my gosh!

Yes, me too. Especially when I saw the World of Good suite (pages 24-26). I instantly knew that I had to have it ALL. I travel for work as you might know and I scrapbook too. But I see so many more possibilities for this suite: especially for masculine cards and gift ideas. 

I did mention that I had to have it all, right? And so I did: I ordered the entire suite (154140) which includes:

• Beautiful World bundle (154091)
• World of Good Memories & More card pack (153600)
• World of Good Specialty designer series paper (152491)
• Antiqued Corners & Slides (152471)
• Old World Paper 3D embossing folder (153200)
• 1/4" Faux Suede Trim (ribbon) (152472)
• Brass Foils Sheets (153057)

Here's what the entire suite looks like:

World Of Good Suite Collection (English)
$104.50

 

 

 

 

Pretty fabulous, right? 

Note: you don't have to buy the entire suite at once like I did. You can purchase each product separately which is why I added the product numbers above. 

My suite came yesterday so today I did a Facebook Live showing it all and then after that was over I created today's card and video tutorial. 

I love the Beautiful World stamp set. I love the images and I especially love the phrases and font style. One phrase particularly stood out to me. I work in an office with many expat employees and this means that there is turnover every year and I have to say good-bye to my colleagues as they return home or set off to work in another country. So today's friendship card is perfect to wish a friend or colleague well on their next life adventure. 

Stamp set: Beautiful World (bundle with dies: 154091)

Ink: Early Espresso

Paper and cutting dimensions:
        Early Espresso: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"; 3" x 2 1/4"
        World of Good paper: 4" x 5 1/4"
        Brass Foil Sheets: 2" square

Other: Metallic Pearls (Gold); Brass Foil Sheets (153057); World of Good Specialty designer series paper (152491); World of Good Memories & More card pack (153600); Old World Paper 3D embossing folder (153200); Antiqued Corners & Slides (152471); SNAIL Adhesive; Multipurpose Glue; Mini Stampin' Dimensionals; die-cutting machine

When was the last time you tried paper weaving?

In today's video I am going to show you a fun layout idea for an encouragement card, using the Forever Fern bundle and Forever Greenery designer series paper. 

These products are available to order on 3 June and I know you will love the bold colors in the paper in all tones of green. 

Last week I showed you one card idea and a fun technique for the Forever Greenery paper. (click here to see this post). This week I have another Forever Fern card idea along with a weaving technique. My weaving is fairly simple and you can take it further if you want. I love the phrase on this card - perfect to encourage a good friend. 

Here's how to make this card:

Stamp set: Forever Fern (bundle, 154094)

Ink: Pear Pizzazz; Pretty Peacock

Paper and cutting dimensions:
        Very Vanilla: 11" x 4 1/4"; 2 1/2" x 1 3/4"; (2) 3" x 1 3/4"
        Pretty Peacock: 1/4" x 4 1/4"
        Forever Greenery: 1/2" x 6"
        Pear Pizzazz; (2) 1/2" x 6"

Other: Fine Tip Glue Pen; SNAIL adhesive; Flowers for Every Season Gems (153645); Forever Greenery designer series paper (152492); die-cutting machine

I have also created a video showing step by step how to create my card, along with some bonus tips along the way. Why not give this layout a try too?

 

You need to learn the amazing Scrappy Strip card technique

Today I have created a video showing you the fairly new, and really fun and amazing Scrappy Strip card technique! 

This technique was invented by a Stampin' Up! demonstrator using an indigenous painting he has hanging in his  home. He created the technique using strips of paper - but not cut straight - to emulate the painting. 

For my card I decided that rather than use solid colors (like the originator of this technique did), I would use up some pieces of Country Club designer series paper:

Country Club Designer Series Paper
$11.50

 

 

 

The patterns and colors in this paper pack give off a masculine vibe (to me) so I decide to use the Perennial Birthday stamp set for my phrase and to make a masculine birthday card idea:

Perennial Birthday Cling-Mount Stamp Set
$22.00

 

 

 

There are two key products I think you need for the Scrappy Strip technique: a quality paper cutter and Multipurpose Liquid Glue:

Paper Trimmer
$25.00

Multipurpose Liquid Glue
$4.00

With these two items you can create so many Scrappy Strip cards! 

Here's mine, along with a video showing you this technique step-by-step. 

Perennial Birthday Scrappy Strip Birthday Card

Stamp set: Perennial Birthday (151240)

Ink: Night of Navy

Paper and cutting dimensions:
        Whisper White: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"; 5 1/4" x 1"
        Garden Green: 1 1/4" x 5 1/4"
        Country Club: 6 x 6" pieces
        Night of Navy: 5 1/4" x 4"

Other: Happiness Blooms Glimmer Dots (148805); Country Club designer series paper (151314); Multipurpose Liquid Glue (110755), SNAIL adhesive

How to make a Honey Bee gift pocket

In today's blog post I am going to show you a really fun gift idea using my Honey Bee bundle. This cute pocket idea has so many uses and once I show you how to make it you will be able to come up with a bunch of treat ideas to tuck inside!

I chose to use the Honey Bee bundle because I love it so much and know that it will be retiring on 2 June (sad face). 

Honey Bee Bundle
$41.25

 

I also chose a sheet of the Mosaic Mood designer paper because it is also retiring. It is sometimes very difficult to see favorites retire, isn't it? The particular pattern I chose has tiny bees on it which is why I paired it with my Honey Bee stamp set. I love when I notice little things like this and combine products that I have in ways that I haven't done before. 

Mosaic Mood Specialty Designer Series Paper
$10.15

 

 

 

Did you notice that this paper pack is on sale? Get it soon as it is only available as supplies last! 

To make the pocket you will need a sheet of 12x12 paper. You can use solid paper or patterned paper - make sure that whatever you choose that the paper is thick enough to be scored. The Mosaic Mood paper is a bit thicker than most 12x12 papers so is perfect for this project. For the inside of the pocket, you can then choose a matching or contrasting paper for the holders. 

The biggest challenge for me was using Soft Suede to stamp my bees. I did this because Soft Suede is one of the colors in the Mosaic Mood paper. But then I had to think a bit about how to color the bees when the ink I was using was water based. You can see how I solved this problem on my video. 

I suggest you get all layers created first, then attach any decorations/layers to the front before attaching the inside pieces. In my video I did not do this and you will see that it wasn't easy to add my SNAIL adhesive, lol!

Here's a photo of my Honey Bee gift pocket. 

Here's what you need to make this pocket. Use what you have on hand and see what your pocket looks like!

Stamp set: Honey Bee bundle (153792)

Ink: Garden Green, Soft Suede, Crushed Curry

Paper and cutting dimensions:
        Very Vanilla: 5" x 1 1/4"; two pieces 1 1/2" square
        Blushing Bride: 5" x 1 1/2"
        Garden Green: two pieces: 2 3/4" x 5 3/4" (score at 1/4" and 1/2" on three sides, two short & one long)
        Mosaic Mood: 5" x 12" (score at 5 1/2" & 6 1/2")

Other: Mosaic Mood designer series paper (149478); Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo Pack (149485); Simply Scored (122334); Classic Label Punch (141491); Tear & Tape adhesive (138995); Blender Pens; Mini Stampin' Dimensionals

How to create a beautiful Mother's Day box

Today I want so show you how to create a beautiful Mother's Day box using the Painted Poppies bundle.

Painted Poppies Bundle

I am so excited that the Painted Poppies bundle is going to carry over to the next Annual catalog. Except - it will no longer be bundled which means you will pay full price for both items. (Tip: order it by 2 June and you will save 10%)

What is not carrying over are these two products - I am so sad about the Sequins (sniff sniff):

 

Peaceful Poppies Sequins
$7.00

Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper

But I am happy that I got to use them on today's project. In the past couple of weeks I have share some beautiful Mother's Day card ideas. Click here and here to see these cards.

This box is super easy to create and if you look closely you will see a fun technique that perhaps you haven't tried yet. (Tip: my video below introduces the technique if you can't figure it out)

See this fun twist on a Mother's Day card

In today's video tutorial, I am going to show you yet another Mother's Day card idea, this time using the Honey Bee bundle. This card has a fun twist to its layout and anyone who gets this card in the mail will get a nice surprise.

I am so sad that the Honey Bee bundle is going to retire on 2 June (or before if supplies run out!). I have had a lot of fun crafting with it:

Honey Bee Bundle
$41.25

 

 

I also know that the Mosaic Mood designer series paper is also retiring. Hint: ALL designer paper in the Annual Catalog retires at the end of that catalog year. 

Mosaic Mood Specialty Designer Series Paper
$10.15

 

 

 

I feel that this year I have done well to use up most of my designer paper stash so that there is no guilt when the next catalog goes live and I am loving the new papers there! As a demonstrator we have already had a sneak peek at the new catalog and get to pre-order some products soon. 

Here's my card - I hope you will give this layout a try soon. It's fun and easy and creates a fun 'wow' factor. The video below walks you through it all and provides some bonus tips along the way.

I also used the Timeless Tulips stamp set for the lovely Mother's Day phrase:

Timeless Tulips Photopolymer Stamp Set (English)
$18.00

 

 

 

 

 

This fancy fold card idea is really easy if you cut all the layers first and get everything laid out and ready to adhere. As I mention in my video if you don't have a scoring board it is still easy to make this card using a pencil, ruler and bone folder, or lay your ruler down your card and use it as a fold guide. If there's a will there's a way, right?

Here's my video and after you have had a look keep scrolling down to see a second, easier card idea that has the same basic structure. 

As promised on my video, I created a second and simpler card idea using the Bird Ballad paper. It is highly likely that this paper will retire on 2 June so order it now so that you don't see that disappointing 'sold out' notice in my online store:

How to make a really fun Easter card

In today's video and project idea, I am going to show you a really fun way to make an Easter card when you don't have an Easter themed stamp set. 

To help me make my card I used the Itty Bitty Greetings and So Many Stars (now retired) stamp sets. I love Itty Bitty Greetings because it has so many phrases for so many different occasions!

Itty Bitty Greetings Cling-Mount Stamp Set
$36.00

 

 

 

I also used some of my In Color designer series paper - did you know that you can purchase a pack of designer paper for each color collection and In Color series? With each pack you get 40 sheets of patterned paper: 4 each of 2 double-sided designs in 5 In Colors. Each sheet in the pack is 6" x 6". 

2019–2021 In Color 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 Cm) Designer Series Paper
$11.50

 

 

 

 

 

 

As I already wrote, I used the So Many Stars stamp set for my background. This set, sadly, is retired but no worries: you can use your favorite background stamps on your card design. 

Here's my card and as promised in my video, I have created a second idea with a repeating pattern. See below!

Stamp sets: Itty Bitty Greetings (151331); So Many Stars (retired)

Ink: Purple Posy

Paper and cutting dimensions:
        Purple Posy: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"; 3" square
        Granny Apple Green: 3" square
        Pineapple Punch: 3" square
        Petal Pink: 3" square
        Balmy Blue: 3" square
        Pineapple Punch designer paper: 5 1/4" 1 1/2"
        Whisper White: 4" x 5 1/4"; 2 1/2" x 3/4"

Other: Mini Glue Dots, Pineapple Punch 1/8" Grosgrain ribbon; SNAIL adhesive, Classic Label punch (141491); Daisy punch (143713)

Here's my second card idea - one that is a bit 'softer' visually. This card uses only two colors and a repeating pattern. Which card do you like best? Leave me a comment below to let me know. 

Here's my video - watch along the way for bonus design tips!

 

See how to take Christmas into spring with a simple card

I had such fun creating today's card and video tutorial! I knew the design I wanted to create and the colors I wanted to use but had quite the time choosing the background image to use. Until I spotted the Merry Christmas to All stamp set. There is one cute swirl image that was perfect for the background on my card. 

Merry Christmas To All Photopolymer Stamp Set
$27.00

 

 

 

It's funny but for the first time ever I started my card design by choosing my embellishments and letting them determine the colors for my card. I earned Metallic Baker's Twine & Sequins combo pack for free during Sale-a-bration and love it. They add the perfect finish to handmade cards and other paper projects. The twine has metallic thread woven through for delicate glimmer.

Metallic Baker’S Twine & Sequins Combo Pack
