Today I am on my way to OnStage Live in Salt Lake City. OnStage Live is Stampin’ Up!’s convention. Demonstrators gather for three days to share their love of stamping.

Layered Sketch Challenge
If you like layers, you are in for a treat. You just need to keep adding and adding to mimic this sketch. I didn’t want to lose too much of the background pattern, so I used a layer of vellum over the designer paper. Then I added some texture with … Continue reading
The Dreaded Cone, Day 4
For Chip’s fans…it’s been a rough week for our Buckeye Inklings mascot. He is stuck in a cone after an emergency vet visit this weekend to treat an abscess. You can see why I am calling him “my sweet petunia”. There is just so much to love about this look … Continue reading
Teapot Birthday
I cut 1/4″ off a standard card front so that I could use the designer paper from Birthday Bouquet more efficiently to cover the entire card front. The designer paper measures 4″ x 5 1/2″. I made pennants with framelits, using another pattern from Birthday Bouquet along with Watermelon Wonder … Continue reading
A Tropical Greeting

Oval Framelit Basket Favor

Seed Packet Cards, Revisited
This is one of my favorite projects from last year, made with this year’s papers. The basket is cut from a 3 1/2″ square of Tip Top Taupe Color Me Irresistible designer paper, placed over just a portion of the Berry Basket Bigz L Die to create one side and … Continue reading
