The Paper Artist/Creative Card Design

The Lazy Days Bundle is one of my absolute favorites from the upcoming New Annual Catalogue releasing on May 2, 2023. This card example shows very little from the bundle, there is so much more that you are just going to love!  The stamp set is full of plenty of items to decorate that porch, and some really nice sentiments. The coordinating die set includes even more objects to create the most relaxing porch scene. This set was my first choice without a doubt, since my favorite place to be is on the porch. It creates a relaxing vibe from within and I really hope cards created with a porch scene will bring that feeling to my recipients. Check out everything that goes with this set right here on Tuesday morning  (May 2, 2023) when the New Annual Stampin' Up Catalogue is released.  

Seasonal Branches - Sneak Peek! I created this card really quick and with endless mistakes, that started with assembling the card backwards and after that the issues that never ended.  However, in the end I still ended up with a pretty decent looking card. My pre order with the products from the Annual Catalogue just arrived - quite fashionably late, which didn't give me time to whip up anything with a Wow factor for sneak peeks to show all of you.  So if preview cards for the Sneak Peeks look like they were just thrown together.... they were!!  These cards features the Seasonal Branches Bundle - awesome bundle that allows you to create leaves on the branches, blossoms, little flowers and of course this adorable little bird.  Or... no little bird, and just the branches and blossoms... The sentiments in the stamp set are just great and gives us a few more possibilities to create a card for just the right occasion.  This "Well Wishes" sentiment is definitely welco...

  Cuz who doesn't love a knitting Llama, right?!  We have a turtle singing karaoke, alligators riding bicycles, a frog making his debut with a flute...  The Zany Zoo Bundle is new in the upcoming Annual Catalogue  and features so many zany characters that I haven't even shown you here. Each and every one of them is sure to make you giggle,  they are just to cute!!  However, you must know... I really did buy this suite just for the knitting Llama!! You will be able to check out the Zany Zoo characters and all that coordinates with, plus so many other great stamp sets, dies, ribbons and embellishments on May 2, 2023.  I'll post the link for that first thing Tuesday morning.  Until then... Check back for a few more sneak peeks over the weekend... 

This adorable Mother's Day card disguised as a potted plant is sure to bring a smile to any mother on Mother's Day or just any day!  The card layout looks complicated, however it it's not!  With the flowers cut from the Hues of Happiness designer paper - creating the card becomes even easier. If you don't have the Hues of Happiness paper it is on the Last Chance product list, in fact it may be gone but you can use any flowers for this project. I have check since starting this post and the Hues of Happiness designer paper seems to be gone, so not available.  That being said, you could stamp, color and cut the flowers from the Happiness Abounds stamp set, or any other stamp set. This card has endless possibilities when it comes to adding the flowers in the flower pot. I have done a few different ones that I'll pop on here over the weekend as examples. Just a Quick Note:  The Sheer Ribbon that I used in the card above is currently listed in the Last Chance product sale...
