My Stampin’ Up Anniversary – Bargello Then and Now!

Happy Stampin’ Up! Anniversary to Me! On April 6, 2011, I joined Stampin’ Up! as a demonstrator. One of the best things I’ve ever done! About two weeks later, I held my first card class. Here’s one of the cards we made. I was pretty ambitious! This card used the Bargello technique. It involves cutting lots of strips of paper, then gluing, then cutting again.

Fancy Foil - No More Hoarding!

Find out what I was hoarding!

Sometimes, I love my papers too much. I hold on to them, thinking, “Well, something special will come along and then I’ll use it”.  This thinking results in piles of lovely  but unused paper! I’m working to overcome this and in that vein, I have decided to make a few cards using the Fancy Foil. This is the loveliest vellum paper, stripes, snowflakes and Christmas trees. Here’s my first product. I…

Timeless Elegance Gift Box...Thing

Timeless Elegance Gift Box…Thing

This morning caught me a bit off guard.  Way too much to do and never enough time.  But as always, things come together in the end and everyone gets their needs met.  This little blog of mine often has to wait its turn, and it never even complains, how nice. I am not sure what to make of this kind of box thing I came up with.  I wanted to use the dsp, but to be honest, it isn’t sturdy enough for…

Hello There Painted Petals!

Bringing together my favorites once again.  This whole painted blooms and painted petals brings me so much joy.  Pairing it with this beautiful hello there phrase makes it work!
