Hello friends. It sure seems like I have been out of town more than I have been home these past few months. Currently we are in New York City taking in all the sights. Because I knew I had limited time to create a 3D item I chose to use the easy button!
Have you noticed the Bag Combos in the September-December catalog? These are so versatile and easy to embellish and decorate.
This is the sample from the Stampin’ Up! site. It is so cute with the heart cute out. I think you could use a tree die to create a fun Christmas bag with the same concept.
I decided to cover the front of the larger bag with Sentimental Christmas Designer Paper. I stamped the sentiment before I adhered the DSP. The handle is created with this lovely Lost Lagoon Soft Cording. This cording is silky and soft. The Cherry Cobbler & Pearl Adhesive Backed Berries finish off the pine branches nicely.
Isn’t it great we can create such pretty packaging even if we have limited time? Stampin’ Up! products make it so easy!
Make sure you hop on for more 3D inspiration.

Welcome to this month’s Stamptastic Friends blog hop! This month we are casing a team member…talk about a hard choice. All the Stamptastic Friends create beautiful projects.
I searched around and found this card by Katie Drew, it spoke to me because of the colors and simplicity. Fall is my favorite season so creating a card to send friends during this time of the year makes me happy. Katie’s card uses Iconic Imagery Bundle and Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper.
I chose to go with the same Iconic Imagery stamp bundle and card design layout. I double stamped the leaves in a variety of fall colors and then die cut them. I changed my color scheme by using Iconic Celebrations 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper. I turned this into a Thanksgiving card by changing the sentiment using Autumn Expressions stamp set. Thanks to Katie I now have my favorite fall card.

Today, the Stamptastic Friends community is excited to present a sketch challenge! Sketches are a fantastic source of inspiration for card-making enthusiasts like myself. What’s your take on sketches? Do you find them inspiring? A simple yes or no will do!
Here’s the sketch, presented in both Metric and Imperial measurements. Remember, sketches are just a starting point—they invite creativity! Feel free to transform circles into squares or switch out banners for ribbons. And let’s not forget, a touch of bling never hurts!
For my creation, I adhered closely to the original sketch but couldn’t resist adding a flourish of Christmas Greenery for a festive touch.
Exciting news for fellow crafters: this stamp set, along with the gorgeous Christmas Designer Paper, will be featured in the Online Exclusive starting July 2, 2024. It’s always thrilling to have new materials to work with!
And let’s talk about sentiment stamps—aren’t they just the most versatile? They can elevate any card to new heights.

Stamping with Friends…Is there anything more delightful than crafting with companions? It’s all about the joy of creation, shared laughter, and the hum of conversation! Today you can enjoy a virtual gathering on this blog hop.
This simple card design is ideal for a crafting circle. It’s a breeze to personalize in any hue that brings you joy. For today’s project, I’ve selected the delightful new shade of Peach Pie. It’s a gentle, inviting hue that’s just as sweet as it sounds.
The Wildflower Collection offers a quartet of botanical stamps. With the matching dies, you have the freedom to color, cut and style the blooms to your heart’s content. The versatile sentiments are designed to integrate with the frame die cuts.
I’m looking forward to creating more of these cards, each in different colors. I have a hunch that the shades Pretty in Pink and Melon Mambo and Summer Splash will look absolutely fabulous.

In the midst of preparing for our journey, I carved out a moment to craft a distinctive card with a masculine touch for a dear friend. May this serene image offer peace and serenity.
I gravitated towards the Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper once more—truly the gem of the new Annual Catalog. It’s coupled with the classic Grassy Groveset, though I believe the fresh In the Grove set could equally adorn this layout. It’s delightful to have the flexibility to blend our collections.
The silhouette of the tree, die-cut in Basic Black, casts an evocative twilight scene. It’s as though dusk is descending, yet the deer paused to relish the sky’s lingering hues. At the DSP’s base, I’ve stippled some grass in Pretty Peacock ink.

Stamping Diversity Bloggers are sharing cards for Ramadan today. I chose to focus on Eid for my card.
Eid al-Fitr, also known as the “Holiday of Breaking the Fast,” is one of the two official holidays celebrated within Islam. It holds immense significance for Muslims worldwide as it marks the end of the month-long dawn-to-sunset fasting period of Ramadan. This joyous occasion is observed under various names in different languages and countries across the globe. One of its alternative names is “Lesser Eid.”
The festivities of Eid al-Fitr commence at sunset on the night of the first sighting of the crescent moon.
To capture the essence of this special day, I’ve adorned my card with a moon and a sprinkling of stars. Sometimes, simplicity speaks volumes, and this card beautifully captures the spirit of the occasion.
I opted for a soothing blue color palette and infused a hint of gold to add vibrancy. The fun banner adds a touch of whimsey.
Celebrating diversity is a beautiful thread that binds us together. Crafting cards allows me to express this joy, and I’m delighted to share it with you!
