March 16, 2022March 15, 202218 Comments

Welcome to our Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe including the USA, United Kingdom and Australia. We have a wide array of animal themed projects with a punch spotlight to share with you. You may have arrived from Maureen’s blog. Hop all the way around using the Next buttons until you get back to me so you see it all!

The Turtle Friends stamp set and coordinating Turtle punch create fun and quick cards. If you want a quirky birthday card, this it! I tried adding bling but the Hand Penned pattern paper is so busy, it did not need it.

Decorate the inside too!

Thanks for hopping with us each month. Now click on the next image to zoom to Sue’s blog and see what fun project she designed.

Here is a list of hoppers in case you get off the trail…

Paper Crafting Blog Hop Anything But a Card Simply Classic Treat Box

February 16, 2022February 17, 202220 Comments

Welcome to our Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe including the USA, United Kingdom and Australia. We have a wide array of Anything But a Card projects to share with you featuring January/February 2022 Sale-a-bration products. You may have arrived from Krissi’s blog. She had a fabulous project!

Simply Classic Treat Boxes are easy to decorate. Just pop up the sides, pluck some pretty pattern papers from the Sweet Talk collection, add a tiny gift note using a strip of leftover pattern paper and 2 Gorgeous Grape heart punches and done!

It’s tiny inside but fits a Lindt chocolate (of which I had zero at my house during the design session) and the gift note. The gift note sentiment is from the Tasteful Touches stamp set.

Paper Crafting Blog Hop Fall is Here

Welcome to our Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe including the USA, United Kingdom and Australia. We have a wide array of projects to share with you bringing a little bit of fall into our projects. You may have arrived from Krissi’s blog. She had a fabulous project!

The Blackberry Beauty Suite is gorgeous and so much better in person! The pattern papers are gold foil on one side and coordinating prints on the other. I decided to use my last 2 strips of the oak leaf print on my greeting card. The strips make for an interesting background

Layer an ephemera tag and oak leaf die cut over a Gold Shimmer paper mat. Last detail are 2 copper Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots. All this on Blackberry Bliss cardstock, oh my! I opted to not stamp a sentiment on the tag until I am ready to use it.

Paper Crafting Blog Hop Happy Birthday

June 17, 2020June 18, 202022 Comments

I hope you are enjoying our Happy Birthday themed Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators Blog Hop. Fellow demonstrators from all over the globe are participating so we have a wide array of fun projects to share with you! You may have arrived from Debbie McNeill’s blog. She had a fabulous project!

I should start keeping track of the number of times I use the Jar of Flowers stamp set and Jar Punch. I am sure it will be the most used set for me. The new Old World Paper embossing folder will need to be misplaced in my stamp room too so I don’t use it on every card;)

Supplies used…I love my Stampin’ Write Markers for quick, saturated coloring. I also used the Many Mates stamp set for the sentiments.

Thanks for hopping with us each month. Now click on the next image to zoom to Tracy Held’s blog in Australia and see what fun project she designed.

Paper Crafting Blog Hop Happy Birthday

I hope you are enjoying our Happy Birthday themed Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators Blog Hop. Fellow demonstrators from all over the globe are participating so we have a wide array of fun projects to share with you! You may have arrived from Sandra Robert’s blog. She had a fabulous project!

I decided to showcase the Dino Days suite. Pink is my least favorite color but flirty flamingo slips under the door as a super awesome color. Pair it with Pool Party ink and cardstock accents to make the flirty flamingo color pop.

Our glitter enamel dots add some sparkle without adding much thickness. This card can still be mailed with one USA Forever stamps. The Gathered Ribbon in Rococo Rose adds some texture, dino style.

Use our Stampin’ Up! markers to add a Happy Birthday sentiment in your own handwriting…
