As we stand on the cusp of bidding farewell to 2023 and eagerly await the dawn of 2024, what better way to mark the occasion than with a creative burst of celebration? In this special New Year's Eve blog post, I'm wrapping up the year with the fifth and final installment of the Arrow Fold Series. So, let's dive into the details of this versatile card tutorial, perfect for ushering in the new year with style and flair! The Design: For this last tutorial of 2023, I've used the fabulous…

This is a total case of this card by Amy Koenders https://stampwithamyk.com/2020/05/05/stampin-up-witty-cisms-graduation-card/ and it's probably my favorite of the three grad cards I made this year.

While simple to create, the look of this card is striking! I used some retired number dies for this card I was shown by my customer and friend, Victoria Schnepp, but the new Pattern Play Alphabet will be perfect when we can order it on June 3.

Then punch a 1-3/8" square using your punch and another scrap…

Hello stampers and happy Friday to you. Today's topic, something borrowed, something blue, would make you think that perhaps I would be talking wedding talk but that is not the case. Some time in the near future though, that will definitely be a very hot topic. More on that later. Today I am 'borrowing' some cards and one of them is blue. Something Borrowed Today my future sisters-in-law took me out for lunch to celebrate my birthday which is next week Tuesday. It was so very lovely. I also…
