Humble Home Gold Dipped Christmas Card

Want an impressive card base without the hassle?  Try the fabulous Gold Dipped Mix & Match Specialty Cards & Envelopes, which I have used for this fun Christmas card using the oh-so-sweet Humble Home Bundle.

Humble Home Book Treat Boxes

Last week I held my Mini Catalogue Launch Party, celebrating the amazing September-December 2024 Mini Catalogue and all the fabulous new products inside!  Every new catalogue launch event is a little different. Still, they all have some things in common like seeing these new products in person and creating with them, sharing inspirational project ideas, and discovering hidden gems.

Hello

about me

I am a stay-at-home mum with three adult children and a wonderfully supportive husband.  My creative timeout is stamping, creating and giving handmade greeting cards.  When I was introduced to Stampin' Up!® over fifteen years ago, I quickly fell in love with their high-quality, coordinating products and loved creating with them.  Soon after, I became an Independent Stampin' Up!® Demonstrator and discovered that I also enjoy sharing my paper crafting knowledge with others and inspiring their stamping creativity.

I would love to hear from you.  Don't hesitate to contact me if you want the latest catalogue, need papercraft supplies (we ship nationwide), wish to attend an upcoming event, or want information about joining my team.

Regal Flora Diagonal Front Fun Fold Card

This diagonal front fun-fold card is a fabulous way to show off the amazing Regal Winter Suite.  It is such an easy design and fun to create!

Humble Home Christmas Voucher Card

This year has gone so fast and it seems Christmas is just around the corner.  In fact, it's only 100 days away!  So last week, I whipped out my first Christmas card of the year, one with a pretty gingerbread house on the front using the oh-so-sweet Humble Home Bundle.

Regal Winter Floral Sympathy Card

Have you seen the sketch templates on page 16 of the new mini catalogue?  These are a great place to start if you need inspiration for your crafting project.  I used the top-right sketch template on the page to create this floral sympathy card using products from the stunning Regal Winter Suite.

Winterly Tree Tops Thank You Card

I have been fortunate to have the gorgeous Winterly Tree Tops Bundle for a while (one of the many benefits of being a demonstrator).  Then, at a demonstrator-only event held earlier this year, we created six fabulous projects using this bundle and I wanted to share my take on one of the projects with instructions so you can create it too.
