Here is a version of a card from a while back. The sponging of the shimmer paint takes this card from good to great!

July Creation Station Blog Hop

Here's a challenge for those of you who love Stampin' Up! colors! This month the Creation Station challenge is to use one Core Color with one In Color and white. No other colors allowed; we're limited to two plus white. So, my color palette is Lost Lagoon, a new Core Color; Wild Wheat, a 2023-2025 In Color; and Basic White. It wasn't hard to pick these colors. Right now I am totally lovin' Wild Wheat and Lost Lagoon together. And, I love these colors with the Timeless Arrangements Bundle. Speaking of things I love, I totally enjoy creating my own paper and then die cutting elements. That's exactly what I did for this card. I made two custom papers. One, I colored Basic White cardstock with Wild Wheat Stampin' Blends and then stamped with Wild Wheat to create more visual texture. The second paper I made was with a Blending Brush and Lost Lagoon ink. The picture below is a good shot of this card's fancy fold I. I have made several versions of this fold in...

Stampin' Fancy Friday is Getting Giftable

Are you in need of a gift idea for a friend who loves hand made works of heART? Give them a hand-crafted loaded envelope and have tons of fun making things to fill it up and make it extra fancy and special. If you search "loaded envelope" on Pinterest you'l be inspired by all the pins you will see. Once I had a good idea of what I wanted to create I made my own pattern which includes two expanding pockets. These pockets are roomy enough to hold lots of goodies. I put together a short video tutorial to show you how to make the base envelope. It includes the cutting and scoring measurements. At the bottom of this post are the cutting and scoring details. Here's a closer look at the decorated front pocket. I used the Merriest Moments Bundle to add lots of fancy Christmassy elements along with the Peaceful Place Specialty DSP and Silver Foil to make this entire gift sparkle and shine. Take a look at the expanding pockets. You can see these allow for...
