Last month, I hosted what I like to call a Scrapbooking Escape—a full day dedicated to creativity, connection, and completing beautiful scrapbook pages.  It was a chance for everyone who attended to take a break from everyday life and indulge in some well-deserved creative time.

How cute is this llama?!  He's from the Long Time No See stamp set, and you can stamp him as tall (or should I say long?) as you like.  I gave my llama a cosy scarf—brrr, it's chilly here right now!—and a nice long neck before popping him on the front of a fun-fold birthday card.

I'm so excited to be joining the international Creativity Abounds Design Team!  Each month, this talented group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world creates a themed tutorial bundle—and this month, it’s all about Christmas in July!

How cute is this pair of Titmouse?  These two adorable birds from the fabulous Feathered Fun stamp set are framed on the front of a sweet thank you notecard.

The Kintsugi Inspirations Suite from the annual catalogue has been incredibly popular for its Asian-inspired designs and rich, sophisticated palette.  I used this elegant suite to create a sweet gift box inspired by its themes and colours.

Sunday was the Hamilton Extravaganza, and what a fabulous day it was—connecting, crafting, and being inspired!  This is one of the five projects we created over the weekend using the popular Boho Vibes Suite, paired with Flip Flaps to create a fun shaker card.  It’s a creative crossover between cardmaking and scrapbooking—and a big hit on the day!

I’ve been playing with one of my favourite suites from the annual catalogue—Boho Vibes!  This vibrant and eclectic suite is packed with creative possibilities, and today I’m sharing a fun-fold card that gives a playful twist to the rainbow motif.

I was recently fortunate to attend this year’s Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip* in sunny Orlando, Florida—an unforgettable experience!  One of the exciting reveals during the event was a first look at products from the July Online Exclusives release.  Alongside catching up with fellow demonstrators, I had the chance to admire beautiful display boards showcasing these soon-to-be-released goodies.  One project in particular, created with the brand-new Painterly Pears Suite, immediately caught my eye.  The soft colour palette, delicate blossoms, and repeated pear motif were just too lovely to ignore—I knew I had to recreate it.
