Although this isn’t a Stampin’ Up! product, it sure makes using a Stampin’ Up! product, namely my Big Shot, much easier. And if you use your Big Shot on a smooth surface, you’ll know what I mean.
I found this product at the Dollar Tree in the shelf liner section. Called Grip Liner, it’s available in a bunch of colors and for $1.25 for 12” x 72”. You could have a Big Shot stabilizer in every room…well, maybe not! But it’s a great deal. And it works!

When I first started with Stampin’ Up! 15 years ago, I was inspired by a birthday card I received from a colleague. I thought no one sent cards anymore! Most people rely on Facebook or messenger. But I remember how amazed I was to receive a handmade card! It’s like the gift AND the card rolled into one. How many of us have a stash of cards that sits in a box somewhere? Think about how many people’s lives could be brightened by giving or sending those cards to others. There’s a lot of enjoyment that comes from a handmade card with a handwritten note—they hold a special kind of meaning and significance. That’s why they are referred to as a “hug with a fold in it.”
Here are some tips to help you start sending those off:
So many people can benefit from a card—the maker, the giver, the receiver, the admirer, and so on. Friends tell me they NEVER throw my cards away. One student told me she’s saved all of my Christmas cards to decorate during the Holidays. Don’t let your cards hide in a box, break them out and share that joy with those around you and beyond!

I used to do these updates weekly but it seemed as though I was struggling to come up with things. But lately there are so many great things happening that I’m having difficult keeping track. So I thought I’d start them up again.

July 2024 Paper Pumpkin
Posted at 07:26 AM | Permalink | Comments (0)
Growing up was a huge fan of Laura Ingalls Wilder. Her ‘Little House’ series of books was regular reading for me at the ripe old age of 8! So as I was making this project, I couldn’t help but think of her books.
A good friend of mine’s daughter is getting married in July and he asked me to make a card for him to give her. I was so flattered at his request I knew I had to make it WOW!
I started by creating a wedding card with a contemporary look. All I can say is thank God for dies that cut out Designer Series Paper images. I have always loved the Amazing Congratulations stamp set. It’s one I’ve held onto over the years.
For the inside, I relied on the Pop On By die that creates an awesome pop up house. I relied on the current Country Woods Designer Series Paper colored with the Dark Soft Sea Foam Blends marker to creat the house itself. As I final touch I added some flowers in the same colors as the flowers on the front of the card. Along with a personalized sentiment on his suggestion, I created a pocket on the right to slide in a check. I couldn’t have been more pleased!
I hope you like it as much as he (and I) do.

I’ve created, what I think is, a great Stampin’ Up! tool. It’s created in the style of the paint palettes you get at paint stores. The colors are actual card stock samples of the full palette of Stampin’ Up! colors including the current In Color cards. On the back are the item numbers for cardstock, ink pad, ink refill, and Blends if available. The are shipped with a scrapbook post to hold them together but I’ll also include a ring. They are $35 plus $3 shipping for the palettes. International shipping will be based on the actual shipping charge. If you’re interested in purchasing one, click the link below:
The address attached to your PayPal account will be the shipping address. You can now pay PayPal invoices using Venmo, Pay Later, Apple Pay and credit and debit cards.
In the future I plan on offering a collection of the recently retired colors. It will consist of the 10 colors from the 4 color families (Neutrals, Regals, Brights, Subtles) plus the Retired 2021-23 In Colors for a total of 3 color palette cards. Further down the road, I will offer the retired In Colors from 2010 to 2020.
I hope you like them as much as I do.
Mike

It's the first Monday of the month (AND the first day and month of 2024) and that means it's time for the Stamp Review Crew’s Blog Hop. We are a group of Stampin' UP! demonstrators sharing a ton of ideas focused on a single stamp set. This week we're featuring the Snow Crystal Background Stamp. You have likely come from Holly Krautkremer’s blog on your way through this amazing hop. If you get lost, simply click on the banner for a list of participants and get back on track.
I thought I’d kick off the New Year with an amazingly simple design that packs a lot of Snow punch! I love background stamps that can be the focus of a card front! All you need is the stamp, white embossing powder, and this gorgeous red Designer Series Paper. But if you missed out on getting it, any solid color background will work perfectly. Don’t you just love simplicity!?

With this being the first day of winter, I’m sure many of you are planning ski vacations in the coming months. So I thought I take this opportunity to show you one of the cards we made in my card making class in November. You can’t do much better than fragrant forest for a background stamp. The detail is amazing! And of course who can resist an old-fashioned ski lift car. In Palm Springs we have a tram that goes from the valley floor to the mountains 8000 feet up. Although ours is a little bit more modern looking, the effect is the same!

I love the combination of the Tartan Foil and Shop The Town stamp set. There’s something about the plaid pattern and the house that just ticks off the right box for me.
I’m currently on a Danube Christmas Market Riverboat Cruise we just left Nuremberg and are headed for Regansberg. If you’re a Christmas person (and I am) hitting all the Christmas Chriskindle markets is an amazing experience. It’s the 4th time we done this. I’ve tried to attach some pics but the ship internet is too slow. I’ll post a bunch when I m back in the states.
