Happy ! Just a short announcement: I’ll be taking a break from regular, weekly posting. My son is graduating from high school soon and we have family and friends who will be arriving from out of town over the next few weeks. My family is also a proud U.S. Navy family and anyone familiar with the frequency of moving because of military life, knows that moving and relocating can be a lengthy process. The time at our current duty station is quickly coming to an end and we will be packing up soon. I plan to post about Stampin’ Up! promotions as much as possible, but since I will be without my crafting supplies, I’ll have to wait until we’re settled to begin sharing my creations again. My Stampin’ Up! online store will still be accessible if you need/want to place any orders.

As for today’s card, I made a simple Gatefold Card. I used the Unbounded Love bundle and the Tropical Leaf stamp set once again. These are two of my favorites in the new catalog! I just keep coming back to these two for their versatility. Do you have any favorites in the new catalog?

Happy Crafting and hope to be sharing again soon!

Happy ! For all the moms out there, I hope you enjoyed your day yesterday!

I made a simple card today using the Unbounded Love bundle and the Tropical Leaf stamp set, casing the layout in the new annual catalog (page 53). I also used Petunia Pop and Pretty in Pink for my ink and card stock. I’m loving these two new In Colors!

Happy ! Today I made a simple card using the Tropical Leaf stamp set and Granny Apple Green for my ink and card stock choice. Considering the multiple stamping on this one, the card came together very quickly. Loving the tropical vibes!

Happy ! Today I made a Double Flap Fun Fold Card, giving credit to for the YouTube tutorial.

If you didn’t already know, Stampin’ Up!’s new annual catalog is live! I’m waiting for my order to arrive, so I used sets I already have that have not retired. This Sea Turtle set always reminds me of our time living on Oahu, paddle boarding and being excited whenever I’d see a sea turtle swimming alongside me.

Tip: Using multiple stamps on a single layer of card stock is a great way to make your own background paper.

Happy ! Today I made a card using the Pansy Patch stamp set, which is retiring soon, as well as all the other last chance items. Friendly reminder… Only two more days to get those orders placed before time runs out. I used Gorgeous Grape and Highland Heather for today’s ink and card stock colors. A few diagonal cuts adds simple visual interest.

Happy ! Today I made another simple window card. These are so easy to make and come together fairly quickly. I used the Carnival Treats stamp set, which is a hostess set in the current mini catalog.

FYI… only four days left for Last Chance products!

Happy ! Today I’m sharing a card that I made using the Gorgeously Made and Perennial Postage stamp sets. Unfortunately these two favorites of mine are on the “Last Chance Products” list, which means they will be retiring at the end of the month to make way for new products in the upcoming annual catalog. The good news is that these stamp sets and many others are discounted. If you’ve been eying something on the list, order now as there is no guarantee products will be available if you wait. With a little masking and blending, this simple card came together quickly. I used Moody Mauve for my ink color and card stock.

Happy ! Today I made a Pop Up Matchbook Style Fun Fold card cased from Juli at Sunny Day Stamping. Once again, I’ve used the stamps from the March 2024 Paper Pumpkin Kit, Memorable Meadows. I also used retired Sale-A-Bration designer series paper. I love being able to get use of stamps beyond the kit! Thanks for the fun, interactive fun fold card, Juli!

Happy ! Today I used the Daisies for You and Memorable Moments stamp sets, which are from the March 2024 Paper Pumpkin Kit, Memorable Meadows. Although the stamps are not available for purchase, the blending technique, multiple stamping steps, and layout design can easily be recreated. I used Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, and Gorgeous Grape for my ink colors and card stock.

Happy Crafting!
