Today we are going to be making a very cute card using the Springtime Joy stamp set from Stampin' Up!. I am trying my hand at the Step It Up technique. It's where you make 3 cards, basically the same, starting at the beginner level, intermediate, and then advanced. I
Hello Hivers, I am trying so hard to create and share with you all. I am sorry I haven't posted in a while. The card I am sharing today uses the Noble Peacock Foil Sheets, Shimmer Detailed Laser-Cut Specialty Paper, In Color DSP stack, Bird Ballad DSP, and the Free As A Bird stamp set. I really love the way this card turned out. It took me all of 4 days to make this card. Ugh! It's going to get better...It has to...the new catalog is coming soon! I get to pre-order some new products tomorrow. Hopefully that will kick my creative Mojo into gear. Stay Safe.
As always, thanks for Buzzzing by the Hive today. Until next time....Buzzz you later. Honeybee
What if being creative was your job? Oh, wait! It can be! I would love to have you join my team.
Hello Hivers, Today I am sharing with you an alternate card idea using the two stamp sets from the March 2020 Paper Pumpkin kit. This card design was started by using up some scraps from my post on Saturday. If you look very close you can see 2 Brand New Products from the upcoming Annual Catalog. The New products on this card are the Ornate Borders Dies and the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder. You can see the Early Release promotion, HERE. The color combination that I am using is Gorgeous Grape, Granny Apple Green, Coastal Cabana and Thick Whisper White for the card base.

Hello Hivers, I am so ready to get out the house and enjoy the Spring. I hope everyone is staying safe. Today I am sharing a couple of cards and a video tutorial. I got the sketch over at Stampin Pretty. It is sketch #sps004, I just love what she did with the sketch over on her blog. I am sharing two cards but only demonstrate one in the video...because they are basically the same. I just used a few different colors and decided that the stems for the flowers needed to be a bit thinner. I love them both.
Well, let's go ahead and get into this tutorial.
Up close and personal with the card.

Hello Hivers, I have been watching a fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrator on YouTube named Ruth Trice. She has a stamping style that I really love but have never really mastered. Her style inspired me to make this card. I am so happy that I tried this collage technique of stamping again. It really is fun and the results are gorgeous. I think I may be on to something here. LOL I used several colors and a few stamp sets to make this card. Colors: Early Espresso, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Sahara Sand, So Saffron, Pear Pizzazz, and Balmy Blue Stamps: Positive Thoughts, Seriously The Best, Dressed to Impress Accessories: Pattern Party Decorative Masks, Sponges, Heat Tool, White Embossing Powder, Stampin' Blends

Hello Hivers, I have been playing with my Pigment Sprinkles again. I love the vibrant colors you get with this product. I made this stunning, yet simple card using the Butterfly Beauty dies and the Beauty Abounds stamp set. I added some Noble Peacock Rhinestones and Wink of Stella for a bit of sparkle. How do you like it? Leave me a comment and let me know.

Hello Hivers, Today is my 20th Wedding Anniversary. I am so happy to have spent the last 22 years of my life with my wonderful Husband. I just wanted to share that. Today's card is a CASE of my April Customer Thank You card. I really loved the layout and colors...I just had to make another one, but with a few changes. I'm sorry I haven't been posting much. I am super busy preparing for my second born to graduate high school and move on to the next stage in life. I hope to be more active around mid June when things calm down a bit.

Hello Hivers, We have a little less than a month before Valentine's Day is here. I love giving out cards and treats to all the people in my life. I made this card using the All My Love Suite of products. I am having so much fun playing with all the dies in this Suite. There are so many to choose from.
Take a look at this Suite in action.

Hello Hivers, This is my first alternate project using the September 2018 Paper Pumpkin Kit. I love the way it turned out. One of my brother-in-laws was born on Halloween day. I thought this card would be perfect for him. I cut one of the treat bags open and wrapped it around some Whisper White cardstock. I used the tag on the side for the sentiment. The "Birthday Wishes" came from the Varied Vases stamp set. I have a few more to share with you...coming soon. SEPTEMBER PAPER PUMPKIN REFILLS AND FULL PAST KITS Our Frights & Delights September kit was a spectacularly spooky success! Refills (149540) will be available starting today, September 24 and can be found in the online store.

Hello Hivers,
Today I am sharing a Note Card Holder. I used all the new 2018-2020 In Colors to make it. I made a card in every color except the Pineapple Punch because I used it to decorate the holder. I also used each flower in the Varied Vases stamp set. The holder holds 4 Note Cards & Envelops.

Hello Hivers, Welcome to the monthly Stampers By The Dozen Blog Hop for the month of May. This month our theme is focused on Mother's or Father's Day projects. Since Mother's Day has already come and gone, I have decided to feature some Father's Day projects.
The main images on the projects are all from the Country Livin' stamp set. The sentiment is from Itty Bitty Greetings*. The Tranquil Textures Designer Series Paper* adds just the right touch of masculinity to these projects. I used card sketches #21 and #25, by Dawn G., for my cards but I changed a few things to better fit my needs.(Click each title to see her original version.)
You all know that I had to make a 3D project. I made a simple box that holds 2 chocolate bars. Below the photos are the measurements for the box.
Box Measurements: 6-1/8" x 5.75" Score long side at: 5/8", 2.75", 3-3/8", 5.5" Score short side at: 5/8" and 5-1/8" DSP: 2" x 4-3/8" I hope you have enjoyed your visit to the Hive today. Leave a comment and let me know what you think. Remember, this is a Blog Hop, the excitement continues... Hop on over to Carly's blog...she is up next in the Blog Hop.
