Throwback Thursday – Saying Goodbye with ‘Welcome to the Team’

Leave a comment

As the school year winds down, it’s time to reflect, appreciate, and sometimes say goodbye. This week’s Throwback Thursday card is dedicated to those bittersweet farewells—to staff moving on to new schools and new roles.

I pulled out a retired gem: Welcome to the Team, one of my favourite sentiment sets for coworkers and colleagues. It was the perfect pairing for the bright, cheerful designs in the Full of Life 6×6 Designer Series Paper (a current Stampin’ Up! product!) and some subtle sparkle from Iridescent Faceted Gems.

🖤 Card Details:

  • Image & Sentiment stamped in Secret Sea Ink – it’s quickly become my go-to neutral!
  • The coffee mug was coloured with Lemon Lime Twist and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends
  • I stamped the image again on a stitched Stylish Shapes circle, then fussy cut and popped the mug up on dimensionals
  • Finished off with coordinating DSP and a trio of Iridescent Faceted Gems

It’s a clean, modern, and heartfelt card—great for staff farewells, team transitions, or even just a note of appreciation to a hardworking friend.

✂️ Creative Tip:

Fussy cutting and layering stamped images over the same design creates easy depth and dimension, especially when using alcohol markers for vibrant colouring.

Live Replay: GDP498 Sketch Challenge – Sweet Jar Bundle + Bonus Project!

Leave a comment

In this week’s Live, I played along with the Global Design Project #498 sketch challenge to create a vibrant birthday card featuring the Sweet Jar Bundle—a playful sneak peek at the bundle I am featuring in my upcoming Sweet Jar Virtual Card Class!

Later in the day, I was inspired by the same sketch to create a second project—a gift card holder using the Online Exclusive Poppin’ By Bundle. This bold and fun card is perfect for movie lovers and teens!

👉 Watch the Sweet Jar card replay here

🎈 Sweet Jar Birthday Card (Live Video)
I used the Bright & Beautiful DSP (a Last Chance item!) and jar of stamped candles to make a fun, bright birthday card. The iridescent gems finish it off with a little shimmer! This layout is part of GDP498 and shows how you can quickly mix paper and dies for a playful, professional look.

🎬 Poppin’ By Gift Card Holder (Bonus Project)
Later in the day, I kept the creative energy going by using the same sketch to make a gift card holder with the Poppin’ By Bundle. I love the bold red and white stripes, stitched banner sentiment, and popcorn puff details. It’s such a fun card to give!

Global Design Project #497 – Colour Challenge

Leave a comment

I’m excited to be back with another entry for the Global Design Project, and this week is a colour challenge—one of my favourites! The combo of Strawberry Slush, Secret Sea, and Darling Duckling is such a cheerful, fresh palette that practically screams birthday fun! 🎉

For this week’s card, I reached for the adorable Sweet Jar Bundle. I love how versatile this set is—you can fill the jar with so many fun elements! This time I used birthday candles to create a playful birthday card that’s both bold and sweet. I placed the jar inside a die-cut circle on a Secret Sea panel, layered over a soft Strawberry Slush tones DSP piece. A few embellishments in coordinating colours and a stitched sentiment banner finish the card perfectly.

Here’s the card I created:

💖 What I Love About This Card:

  • The candles inside the jar feel so festive and unique—like a mini birthday celebration!
  • The bold contrast between the soft background and the crisp Secret Sea die-cut window really makes the jar pop
  • The punch makes assembly quick and simple—perfect for beginners or batch-making
  • This design works for birthdays of all ages

🛠️ Tips for Creating This Card:

  • Stamp the jar and candles first, then punch them out for crisp, clean edges
  • Pop up the punched jar with Stampin’ Dimensionals for added dimension
  • Switch up what you “fill” the jar with for seasonal or themed cards—so versatile!

1 Layout, 3 Cards – Featuring Celebratory Sips DSP!

Leave a comment

This week, I took on the Global Design Project Challenge #GDP496 by CASE-ing the designer with a fun twist: using one layout to create three unique cards – each with a different stamp set, but all showcasing the Celebratory Sips DSP and Holographic Foil Resin Dots!

This kind of layout challenge is my favourite way to spark creativity. It keeps design decisions simple while allowing for endless variation. Here’s a closer look at each card:

🍹 Cheers & Sips Card

Bright, summery, and refreshing! I paired cocktail images from the Cheers & Sips bundle with Soft Sea Foam cardstock and Old Olive DSP. The embossed panel adds just the right texture.

🐷 Party Piggy Card

How fun is this little pig?! The Party Piggy stamp set brings such whimsy to the same layout. I swapped in a cheerful orange stripe for a party-perfect look.

🦋 Beautiful Butterflies Card

This third card has a completely different vibe – rich Secret Sea and sweet Strawberry Slush and Petunia Pop butterflies from Beautiful Butterflies make this one elegant and eye-catching. Same layout, totally different feel!

All three cards use the same:
✔️ Celebratory Sips DSP
✔️ Holographic Foil Resin Dots
✔️ Layout from GDP496

💡 Crafting Tips from This Live:

Let patterned paper guide your colours – it makes mixing sets easy!

Pick one layout and play with different stamps for quick cardmaking.

Use dimensional layers to make simple layouts pop.

Repeat your embellishments for a cohesive collection of cards.

Cheers to You! Featuring the Celebratory Sips Suite

Leave a comment

Let’s raise a glass! 🥂

In today’s Facebook Live, I shared a bright and cheerful card using the Celebratory Sips Suite—which also happens to be the featured suite for my upcoming Celebratory Sips Mega Stamp Camp. I couldn’t resist creating with these adorable drink images and fun textures.

Here’s a closer look at the card:

👉 I started with an Old Olive card base and added a Glass & Gardens embossed background (I love how it adds subtle texture!).
👉 The drinks were fussy cut from the DSP in the suite—aren’t they adorable?
👉 I layered them onto a Soft Sea Foam Everyday Arch, stamped some Old Olive mint leaves behind for extra greenery, and tied it together with that stunning Gold Striped Ribbon.
👉 For sparkle, I used the Holographic Resin Dots—love the shine they give!
👉 The sentiment, stamped in Blackberry Bliss, pops perfectly against the soft background.

You can catch the replay of today’s Live on You Tube—let me know what you think of this card!

💡 Why I love this suite:
The Celebratory Sips Suite makes it SO easy to create cards for birthdays, brunches, and summer parties. The fun drink imagery, fresh colour palette, and versatile sentiments mean you can use it year-round. Plus, the matching DSP makes designing quick and easy—just cut, layer, and go!

Here is a full list of supplies I used on today’s card.

Sneak Peek – 2025–2027 In Colors for GDP494

Leave a comment

The newest Global Design Project sketch challenge (GDP494) was the perfect opportunity to showcase Stampin’ Up!’s brand new 2025–2027 In Colors—and I’m in love!

Here’s the card I created:

This happy birthday card features:
🎨 Secret Sea, Cloud Cover, Strawberry Slush, Timid Tiger, and Darling Duckling—aren’t those names just fun?
🌿 Each color strip is embossed using the Garden folder from the Glass & Gardens 3D Embossing Folder Pack for gorgeous texture and dimension.
🌸 I added three sweet layered flowers with pink gem centers for a whimsical touch.
💬 The sentiment comes from the new Simply Said stamp set, heat embossed in white on a bold strip of cardstock.

The best part? Most of these products aren’t even available to the public yet—they launch May 6! But… if you sign up to become a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, you can get early access and a discount too. Win-win!

I’m so excited to share this vibrant birthday card I created during my recent Facebook Live. It features the Arched Wishes Stamp Set and Everyday Arch Dies, both of which are Online Exclusives. This design was inspired by Loni Spendlove’s gorgeous card, which you can see here.

What makes this card truly special is the masked balloon technique I used to create the colorful blended background. By combining stamped images with a soft ink-blended effect, I added depth and a festive vibe perfect for any celebration.

Card Details:
🎈 Masked balloons and a rainbow blended background
🧁 Bright, cheerful cupcake stamped and fussy cut
🌟 Added embellishments for extra sparkle and fun

1 Layout, 3 Cards – March 2025 Replay!

Leave a comment

In today’s 1 Layout, 3 Cards episode, I showcased how a single card sketch can inspire three distinct designs. This month, I used the sketch from page 22 of the Annual Catalogue and had so much fun bringing it to life with different themes!

Here’s a closer look at the three cards I created:

✨ Lemon Lime Twist Birthday Card – I paired the One More Year stamp set with a Pastel Ombre Glimmer Paper banner for a pop of shimmer. The background is fully stamped with a repeating birthday sentiment for a bold and festive look! Watch the replay for tips on stamping the sentiment and colouring the Antique Pearls.

✨ Storybook Easter Card – A sweet, vintage-style card featuring the Storybook Moments DSP critters and a sentiment from Storybook Friends. The soft plaid background adds the perfect cozy touch for spring!

✨ Striped Birthday Card – This one has a softer, more elegant feel with the Painted Stripes background stamp (stamped in Boho Blue, which is retiring soon!). The floral elements come from the Delightful Wishes bundle, stamped in Flirty Flamingo and Granny Apple Green.

All three cards include:
🎀 A banner die-cut from the largest Nested Essentials banner
🎀 Coordinating Baker’s Twine from the Three Color Pack
🎀 Finished with Antique Pearls
