Stamptastic Friends are sharing our favorite Stampin’ Up! tools this month. I have no idea how to pick just one favorite tool! We have so many great options: Cut & Emboss Machine, Stamparatus, Paper Snips, Blending Brushes, Paper Trimmer, Heat Gun, and the list goes on and on and on.

I decided to go with the Paper Trimmer #152392. A good Paper Trimmer is a “must have” item for every paper crafter. The paper trimmer cuts & scores which is why I love it so much. It saves me time and saves space in my tiny craft area.

The card I created used cutting and scoring. The Paper Trimmer makes it so easy to create this Tri-Fold card.

I also made a different card using the Crane of Fortune stamp set. It is so hard to pick my favorite.

Pansy Patch Spring Cards

Mar 15, 2022 | 1 comment

Pansies are such sweet flowers. I love how pansies come in so many distinct color combinations. A wide variety of color choices make card crafting easy and exciting. Changing the colors make each of your cards unique. FYI- Pansy Patch is currently 20% off during March 2022. That makes the pansies even sweeter.

For my first card I started with purples in mind. I used Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape. The purple color is perfect for Easter cards I plan to send. The Iridescent Rhinestones really make the flowers pop.

I also had a piece of Basic White on my desk covered with Shimmer Embossing Paste flowers. I decided to use it for the background of a Polished Pink pansy card. It still has the soft look, but the colors are a bit brighter. I am happy with the way each card turned out.

Below is my YouTube Video from my Facebook Live. I hope you will try these pretty pansies.
