HI there!
Three of you asked me if I would do a video using the Songbird Builder punch
and since I’d recently got it FREE with my last Sale-A-Bration order, I did!
I don’t know why I didn’t get this cute bundle when the annual catalog came out last year.
I love birds and having a punch instead of dies is nice and easy.
The Songbird punch is free until the end of February with a $50 order and so is the Clouds folder so I used them both.
(It’s hard to capture the clear embossing folder so I added navy paper inside for the photo)
You don’t need the stamp set but I think it’s worth it to buy it while the punch is free. The stamp set is only $19 by itself.
Here is my video showing a few tricks and tips with the punch:

The inside…..more leaves and another quote bubble because I kept getting my inky fingers on the paper!
By the way If you missed seeing my video for the Conversation Bubbles Bundle, you can see it HERE

I wish you could see this card in person….so shimmery!
This week I’m using Around the Bend, a bundle in the Stampin’ Up mini catalog.
I love curvy dies so I picked up this one right away!
This bundle is one of the few that is available in both Photopolymer stamps AND Rubber, same price of $52.
Personally I went with the photopolymer because the stamps being clear are easier to line up along the curves.
Watch the descriptions if you are purchasing this bundle so you get the one you prefer!

A little white heat embossing on the sentiment, is it too plain?
I lthink I like it.
I cased the catalog for this one!
Here is the sample from Stampin’ Up:

This is an easy fold for a front pocket gift card and the apple just seemed perfect for a Teacher thank you!
As Sale-A-Bration is nearing the end this month, Stampin’ Up has some new Dies coming September 1st!
(These will be for a limited time, while supplies last)
The 6 new die sets coordinate with current stamps sets.
See the Perfect Partners sales Flyer HERE!
I pre-ordered the Apple Blossom dies to go with the stamp set, Apple Harvest, which is perfect for living here in NC.
Our apple festival is coming up in 2 weeks!
Here is my video showing the dies and 3 alternate ideas using them:

A few more ideas I stamped to show in my video:
I’ll be heading to New Orleans for a Stampin’ Up Leadership conference next week!
Should be a lot of fun but I’ll be scheduling the piggy video to post on Saturday while I’m gone:)

I can think of so many uses for this fun card!
It’s a pop up, but folds flat and fits a gift card or thin chocolate or cash….I found myself walking around the stamp room to see what fits in there:) I was inspired my friend and team member, Debbi Muche, who made this pretty card:
She used the Hues of Happiness designer paper from Stampin’ Up and it has the sweetest lil’ gift bag inside!
It’s hard to improve on her design, it’s perfect!
I made one of my own with the Lovely Linen Designer paper and a great stamp set called Amazing Year.
I love the bold lines and sentiments in this set! It is easy to color, too!
Here is my video!

Hi all!
This week I was inspired by the Pretty Pumpkins bundle from the Stampin’ Up Holiday catalog (July-December 2021 catalog)
If you don’t have a fall pumpkin set yet, this is a nice one. If you have one similar from previous catalogs, get it out and try embossing in white! It’s so pretty and you can use lots of colors as the base.
In this week’s video, I compare a few ways to get a nice, crisp white embossed image and also how to fix spot if you miss a part of a stamped image!

The detailed tall pumpkin is so pretty in copper, gold or cajun Craze, like this sample from the home office:
We are just days away from the Sale a Bration freebie time!

This is really a fun, all occasion bundle!
The leaves, the 3 wreaths, the little pumpkin and sentiments make it a great value for someone who needs a multi-holiday set!
Here is my video:

Sparkle of the Season Bundle #156765 $45.75
in the holiday July-Dec Mini Catalog
The first project I made was Halloween, and altho I don’t send many out each year I do have a few friends that LOVE it!
(I do love dressing up for costume parties at Halloween)
I really liked the black glitter paper wreath:
The owl was fussy cut from the Blackberry Beauty designer paper:
I wish you could see how gorgeous this paper is!
For my 2nd Project, I went with fall/Thanksgiving theme with a little Cinnamon Cider color added in:
Basic Borders Dies #15558 $29
These are in the Annual Stampin’ Up Catalog and I think will be handy to have.
For the 3rd project I made a 5×5 card, altho it could be easily converted to a standard sized card.
(thank you Steph for my little red bird!)
It’s hard to see the pretty detail with white on white, but here is a close-up:

If it says Whimsy or Whimsical in the title, I’m probably gonna buy it.
I don’t know why I’ve always had a thing for quirky, non traditional decor and stamps.
This cute bundle isn’t too far out of the box but I do like the little skinny trees and all fun font.
I seem to get a request each year from someone who wants FLAT but CUTE holiday cards to send!
I think this one works well to mail and is pretty easy to do. You could sub stamping on white for the greeting instead of embossing but you know what I say, if you emboss it means you love them a little bit more:)
Here is my video showing the whole suite and the project:
