On 1 October, I celebrated World Card Making Day by joining the free, virtual Craft-Along event that Stampin' Up! so generously hosted.  One of the three cards we created was this beautiful friendship card featuring the Warm Welcome stamp set and dies, which is a new bundle that was released to celebrate the occasion...

Stuck for ideas?  Feeling a little uninspired?  Have I got a tip for you!  When my creativity has taken a hiatus, I turn to the inspiring project ideas in our lovely Stampin' Up! catalogues.  I either take bits and pieces of ideas to create a card or do what I did for this project and recreate it in full.

Embossing Paste is such fun to play with!  One way of using Embossing Paste on your papercraft projects is to apply it through a stencil or mask and then use the beautiful, textured outcome as a background or feature.

I have created another project using the easy-to-assemble Scalloped Kraft Treat Boxes.  This time, instead of a Christmas Treat Box, I have created a spring-themed box to gift to someone to say thank you.

I am loving the generous size of these fun Scalloped Kraft Treat Boxes.  These gift boxes are so simple to assemble (no adhesive needed!) and have a lovely, warm neutral finish with a touch of gold shine that coordinates with many of our products.  This Christmas Scalloped Treat Box was decorated using the elegant Boughs of Holly Suite from the July-December 2022 Mini Catalogue.

This fun-fold birthday card is called a VW card, which is the shape that the card folds into... a small card folded into a V-shape attached to a W-shape concertina card base.  I have finished this floral birthday card using the elegant Abigail Rose Suite...

I am loving the Kraft Note Cards & Envelopes!  In addition to the fun Father's Day card I created, I have also made this feminine Best Wishes card using the beautiful Cottage Rose stamp set...

To all the supportive fathers and awesome father-figures out there...

Ngā mihi me te aroha nui mō te Rā o Pāpā!
LOVE AND BEST WISHES FOR FATHER'S DAY!
