Using Pretty Paper

Hi Everyone,
I just did my very first Facebook Live. I was a little nervous but once it started my teaching instincts kicked in. I did mess up the camera angle but overall I was pleased with the experience. Check it out below!

I focused on Designer Series Paper. Do you hoard your paper? Do you wait for the perfect project to use it and so it sits on the shelf? I did that for a long time until I watched a video by Kylie Bertucci, an independent Stampin' Up! demonstrator from Australia. She coined the phrase Love it! Chop it! I love this idea.

Designer Series Paper is one of my favourite products. It can turn a dull card into a wow card. I love making simple cards with DSP. The paper does all of the work. From one sheet of DSP I was able to make 8 simple cards. You need to chop it in order to use it and in the video I demonstrate how.

So grab your favourite pretty paper and chop it and make some beautiful and simple cards. Everyone can use a card during these crazy times of social distancing and staying at home.Spread your love!

Keep cardmaking!

Capture the Good Stamp Set

Hi Everyone,
The Last Chance (Retiring Product) List came out today.  Capture the Good Stamp Set is among the products that are retiring. As a person who takes a lot of pictures, I love this stamp set.  It is great for card making as well as using on your scrapbook pages.

Recipe

• Cut a piece of Basic Black cardstock 4 1/4 x 11.  Score at 5 1/2 and 2 3/4.
• Fold the card in half along the score line and then half again on the score line to make a Z-fold.
• Cut a piece of Designer Series Paper 4 x 2 1/4 and adhere it to the front of the card.
• Cut a piece of white cardstock 4 x 2 1/4. Stamp the camera image using black ink.
• Cut a piece of yellow cardstock 4 1/4 x 2 3/4.  Adhere the stamped camera image to this piece of cardstock.
• Stamp the words "the focus is all on you" on a scrap of white cardstock using black ink. Punch it out using a 1 1/2" circle punch. Sponge around the circle using yellow ink using a sponge or dauber.  Adhere this to the front of the camera using Dimensionals.
• Adhere the yellow cardstock to the front of the card keeping in mind that only half of this piece is adhered to the card front.
• Cut a piece of white cardstock 4 x 5 1/4. Stamp the sentiment "it's your day" to the bottom right hand corner using black ink. Adhere to the inside of the card.
