Good Sunday morning stamping friends. I hope you are having a nice weekend. It’s a cold, gloomy, rainy day here in NJ, great day for crafting in my opinion. I’m hoping to do a lot of that today after getting a few errands done.

I played with a bundle and DSP from the new May Online Exclusives that will be available May 5. Unfortunately, this suite is only available in the US because of copyrights. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin’ Up! Sunshine & Tulips Springtime Scenes for The Card Concepts

Posted on by

Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. I hope you are all having a wonderful week. We’re halfway through and on our way to the weekend. Tomorrow this time I’ll be flying out to Long Beach CA for OnStage. I’m so excited to get my hands on the new catalog and see the new products coming in May.

Today’s card is for the inspiration challenge from The Card Concepts. The inspiration photo #225 is April Flowers. I used lots of layered on my card again, since that is one of my favorite kinds of cards to make. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sunshine & Tulips Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Springtime Scenes Stamp Set and Lovely Stripes 3D Embossing Folder for my card today. I was inspired by the tulips in the photo along with the colors for my Clean & Layered card.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge 225.  How are you inspired by the photos?

Posted on by

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend and the last day of February!! February is always a short month, but it seemed extra short this year, probably because of all the snow we had. I hope you are making some plans. I’ll be at work all day. It’s starting to warm up a little here in NJ. I think we’re supposed to hit 50 today.

Today’s card I played with some old favorites. I figured the annual catalog will be coming to an end in a couple short months and I don’t know if this set will be carrying over.
