Hogs & Kisses




Hello Hivers, 

I'm a little upset.  I filmed a video on how to make this cute card.   I finally got up the nerve to make a video tutorial and when I uploaded the video it was corrupted or something.   I have sound, just no image.  I don't know how to fix it.  UGH! 

But....isn't this card the cutest?!  I just love it.  

As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. 
Until next time....Buzzz you later.

Thinking of You



Hello Hivers, 

I was playing with one of the new stamp sets and boy, oh, boy!  I love it.  This is such a beautiful set, it is called Count My Blessings.  The strip of Designer Series Paper came from Painted Autumn, another new product.  

Just a couple more days until the 2017 Holiday Catalog is available to everyone.  Are you ready?

With Love



Hello Hivers, 

 Okay.  It is official.  I think the Festive Phrases stamp set may be my favorite from the 2017 Holiday Catalog.  Well, it is at least in my top 3.  I am finding so many uses for the Merry Little Christmas DSP other than Christmas.  I love the versatility of Stampin' Up! products.  I usually make two of each card, however, this time I changed up the second just a little bit.  I don't know which one I like better.  They both have things I like about them.  What do you think?

Paper Pumpkin - August 2017 with Video




Hello Hivers, 

OMG!  I am in love with this months Paper Pumpkin.  It is so cute. I think this is the first time I opened my box and made every card in one day.  I even came up with some alternate ideas.  I know I will be ordering the refill kit for this one.  The first photo, above, shows how the kit was intended to be put together.  (I did turn one card on its' side.)  All the rest are alternate ideas I came up with.  Keep scrolling down for the video and more information about the Awesome Deal Stampin' Up! is offering for the September 2017 Paper Pumpkin kit.  









 Here are all 8 cards and envelopes inside the Gift Box ready to be gifted.   (Front & Back Views)


This last alternate idea was CASE'd from Pinterest.

Celebrate Him and Her



Hello Hivers, 

Today I want to share a couple of birthday cards I made using up some leftovers.  I thought the top card would be nice for females and the bottom one I tried to make more masculine.  I used an image from the Celebrate You stamp set.  The square of DSP is from the Painted Harvest Designer Series Paper in the 2017 Holiday Catalog.

Witches Brew



Hello Hivers, 

Here is my first card using the Merry Cafe stamp set from the 2017 Holiday Catalog.  I just love it.  As you can see, I made plenty of them.  I really like the  way Lemon Lime Twist and Elegant Eggplant look together.  I used the Marbled background stamp to get the swirls in the drink topping.  I added Wink of Stella to the Basic Black scalloped circle and the drink topping.  You know I had to add my sparkles somewhere...LoL

Spooky Treat Box



Hello Hivers, 

I am having so much fun playing with all my new goodies from the 2017 Holiday Catalog.  I made this treat box using a tutorial I found on YouTube by Sam H.  She is awesome.  This box is pretty roomy.  You can fit a lot of treats inside.  You can't really see it in the pictures, but I heat embossed all the stamped images.

Wow!  I am so proud of myself.  I came up with this layout all on my own.  It is not very often that I come up with the card sketch AND design all by myself.  It is usually either or.  I just love it.  I wish that the Wink of Stella would have shown better in this photo.  Oh, and those Berry Burst Glitter Enamel Dots are to die for.  I need to order some more of them.

To a Wonderful Friend...



Hello Hivers,

You all know how happy bright colors make me.  The Calypso Coral just pops.  I love it...and with the Pear Pizzazz...Man!  It just makes me smile.  Don't you just love the new Ombre ribbon?  These cards are essentially the same.  I just change the direction of the opening of the cards.  I used a couple of sentiments from the Dragonfly Dreams stamp set.

Eastern Daisy Thanks




Hello Hivers,

Let me start by saying...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! to my mother and my youngest son.

These cards were not made for them, but they did get some special treats.  Today I am sharing with you a couple of thank you cards.  I have been trying the clean and simple look.  I think I am doing a pretty good job at keeping it simple...may need to work a little more on the clean part.


As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today.
