This is one of my favorite fun folds. The Blackberry Bliss is the folding layer, and it is all mounted on a 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ Old Olive base. I used stamps from “Many Blessings” on the stitched oval, and I colored them with Stampin’ Blends. The greeting is … Continue reading
I’m using two new stamps here, and these will be available from our holiday collection starting September 5. The pot of sunflowers is from the set “Many Blessings”, and the plaid background stamp is “Buffalo Check”.

The Daisy Punch has been enormously popular since its introduction last year, so I think it’s safe to say that many Stampin’ Up! fans already have what they need to make this punch art bunny. The bunny is made from two circles (3/4″ and 1″) and two daisy petals, and … Continue reading
