This month's theme is "Gift Tags"

I love the Stampin' Up! tag kits! This one is called "Love, Santa." You can never have too many tags during the holiday season. These also make great gifts for your crafty friends, and they are fun and easy to make up quickly. This kit is Item Number 158375. Shop with me and use Host Code:  D9V6ABEE

I love the little "to" and "from" stamps on the back

This kit comes with everything you need to make 12 tags (ink, adhesives, embellishments, stamps, twine, and more).

Using Up Those Bits and Pieces to Make Beautiful Quilt Cards

Really, the embossing folders make these
"quilts" come to life by giving them added depth and texture.

For the Flying Geese quilt card, I used the following Stampin' Up! products:

Crafting with You bundle

Radiating Stitches dies

Basics 3D embossing folder

Bright & Beautiful designer series paper (DSP)

White center specialty paper

Berry Burst and Misty Moonlight ink

Crumb Cake, Basic Black, Basic White and Berry Burst Cardstock

Holographic Specialty Paper (for the scissors)

For the Pinwheel quilt card, I used the following Stampin' Up! products:

Crafting with You Bundle

Radiating Stitches dies

Basics 3D embossing folder

Stargazing DSP

In Color Textured Specialty Paper

Holographic Specialty Paper

Basic Black, Basic White and Crumb Cake Cardstock

Calypso Coral ink

The Pinwheel quilt squares use two 3 x 3/4" strips of DSP (one in each color), and two 3 x 3/4" strips of white cardstock. This is a great way to use up smaller pieces of leftover DSP.

The Flying Geese quilt squares use two 3 x 3/4" strips of DSP for the small triangles, and two

6 x 3/4" strips for the larger triangles.

 

All About Autumn

This has been a fun suite to play with during the month of September, as we get ready for Fall. 

And I am so ready for Fall and the cooler weather it brings.

Little 3x3 note cards CASEd right from the catalog.

This cute treat holder is so simple to make up.
I was surprised that it actually holds a whole bag of mini Dove Bars.

Stamping the background to make my own DSP

This little piece of DSP with the leaves was my favorite from the 6x6 pack.

Popup gatefold with belly band (to keep it from sproinging open).

This "couch" paper was a challenge for me (where/how to use it).

This Designer Series Paper really does all the work here.  So pretty!

Great way to use up the smaller leftover pieces of DSP.

I hope you've enjoyed some of my All About Autumn projects.  If you have any questions, let me know.  Everything is from the current Annual Catalog.

 

Luv 2 Stamp Group Blog Hop - CASEing the Catalog

 

Welcome to the Luv 2 Stamp Group’s 2023 Blog Hop! We are excited to share projects with you again for the third year. This year we are shaking things up and bringing you all new monthly themes to inspire your next project!

Once you are done with each post, scroll down to the bottom and you will see a list of Blog Hop participants. You can click on their name to go to their post or you can click the "Next Blog" button to go to the next post in line. Happy crafting!

This month's theme is "CASE the Catalog"

I knew that to "CASE" something meant to copy it, for lack of a better term. It actually means "Copy and Share Everything." (I had to look it up.) For this month's Blog Hop, I chose the Les Shoppes Suite from the annual catalog, and CASEd a very basic and easy card from Page 30.

This very simple card features three ink colors: Granny Apple Green, Fresh Freesia, and Daffodil Delight. 
The die under the Happy Birthday sentiment is from the Tailor Made Dies.
Three colors of cardstock were also used: Granny Apple Green, Fresh Fresia, and Basic White.  Add the adhesive-backed sequins....and voila!!

So simple, so sweet!

Luv 2 Stamp Group Blog Hop - Happy Halloween! Boo!

Welcome to the Luv 2 Stamp Group’s 2022 Blog Hop! We are excited to share projects with you this year, and we hope to inspire you to create beautiful new projects. Each month we will have a different theme based on the next month’s celebrations using Stampin’ Up! products.

Once you are done with each post, scroll down to the bottom and you will see a list of Blog Hop participants. You can click on their name to go to their post or you can click the "Next Blog" button to go to the next post in line. Happy crafting! This month’s theme is Halloween. 

For this month's Blog Hop, I used the Bewitching and Hello Harvest stamp sets from the Mini Catalog.

For this card, I used blending brushes with Highland Heather and Granny Apple Green ink on the face of the card, which I die cut with theStitched Rectangles dies and layered onto Highland Heather cardstock. The stars were stamped using Pale Papaya ink, and the "Hello" sentiment was stamped with Memento ink.

Next, the witch's legs, boots and hat were stamped using Memento ink, and I used the Witch Hat Builder punch to cut the hat, and then fussy-cut the legs/boots. (I love to fussy-cut!)

The pumpkin is from Hello Harvest and colored with Pumpkin Pie Blends.

And I added a little sparkle with the Amber Gems.

 

This next card uses Metallic & Shimmer DSP and Basic White cardstock. The sentiment is from Hello Harvest; and the spider, witch's hat and boots are from the Bewitching stamp set. The hat is colored with Sweet Sorbet and Pumpkin Pie Blends. You can't get any simpler than this. So fun and festive!
