Hump Day Crafting

well yesterday ended up being a super busy day and I just could not break away from work to take my normal lunch break with you all. I do so appreciate your flexibity and support and was excited I could join you later in the day.

Some days it’s hard to be inspired, motivated or creative. Yet, I know that being creative and crafting bring me joy and helps reduce my stress and worries. There is something about making a card, a scrapbook page or a paper project that just tickles my fancy and makes me feel accomplished.

Yesterday’s Hump Day Craft break was all about finding inspiration- or actually Copy and Share Everything (CASEing the catalog.) On page 24- 25 of the Stampin’ up! catalog is a great example of being able to craft and not come up with something all on your own. The Ephemera packs are so fun to play with and easy to. It reminds me of playing with paper dolls when I was little.

I copied the cards that were on pages 26-27 of the catalog, well you know I did go a little rogue- but that just means my creativity just gave me a kick on the behind! After all it is crafting your way!

Here are the supplies I used to make these two cards and there are so many more I can make. Let’s see what you make!

Making new friends, one card at a time

I was blessed with the opportunity to spend some time at one of our local senior villages. We made some cards, had some laughs and just had a very special day with this group of seniors. I can’t wait to see you all next month! I had so much fun with each one of you!

My goal of creating My Stamp Studio is to bring people together, to form a community and give support and love to one another. To make the world a little less lonely and find joy in crafting. Last weekend I got just that. I spent the afternoon card making with these folks. They were quick and sharp in each of their own ways. My Mother even made an appearance and was my best helper ever!

Thank you to everyone at Harbor Village for making me feel so welcome!

Have you tried the new Two tone cardstock? It is a game changer. It has a white core so after you emboss, taking a sanding block or in this case a nail buffer and sand off some of the color and wellah- an amazing background! Add a Little Wink of Stella- because who can say no to a little shimmer?

Try using the Stampin’ Blends Skin tone combo packs to make each of your elves as sweet as can be.

Hump Day Lunch Break

Today’s Hump Day Lunch Break we featured the Painted Wishes Kit from Stampin’ Up!. I love when I can put together cards quickly and easily. I don’t always have time to sit down and design a card and play with all my stamp sets. Sometimes I want the Easy Button.

Don’t get me wrong, I love to create and design for all of you and myself. But, I do have a full time job in addition to my Stampin’ Up! business. I have 2 small grandchildren, a home, a hubby and parents to help out. So yeah, sometimes I need the easy. With these kits I never feel like I am cheating on my crafting, in fact many times I actually boost my creative Mojo.

Cozy Creativity with the Stay Warm Stamp Set

You know when a stamp set just makes you smile every time you use it? That’s exactly how I feel about the Stay Warm Stamp Set. It’s cozy, it’s charming, and it’s so versatile that I keep reaching for it again and again.

This set has the sweetest line-art images: a snuggly sweater, a cute beanie, cozy socks, warm mittens, and even a little heart (because why not sprinkle in some extra love?). These are perfect for coloring, paper piecing, or simply stamping as-is for a clean, classic look.

But Wait—There’s More!

You know I had to take this set for a little test run on something extra special: the All Season Velvet Specialty Paper. Oh my goodness, stamping on this soft, velvety texture adds such a unique touch. The images practically invite you to reach out and touch them. If you’re looking to add a little luxury to your handmade cards or scrapbook pages, give it a try—you’ll love the effect.

Twice the Fun with Reversibles

Here’s where it gets even better. The Stay Warm Stamp Set is part of the Reversibles collection, which means each photopolymer stamp can be used on both sides. Yep—you read that right! One side gives you the detailed line-art image, while the flip side offers a bold, solid design. That’s twice the stamping possibilities in one set, making it a must-have for crafters who love versatility (and who doesn’t?).

Holiday Elegance with Pine Tree Trimmings

The Pine Tree Trimmings Stamp Set & Dies are simply outstanding. With hand-drawn details and coordinating dies, they make it easy to create cards that are both simple and elegant.

The next two projects I’m sharing show just how amazing this bundle can be—clean style, festive details, and results that look far more complicated than they are.

Best of all? These designs are part of my 6-Card Class Kit! You’ll get everything you need to create beautiful, stress-free holiday cards that will wow your friends and family.
