The theme for today’s Blog Hop is What is Old – is New Again. Stamping with Friends will show you how to combine new products with old techniques or layouts. I’m excited to see what they have created.
Digging through some of my previous cards I decided to CASE this card layout. I adore the vibrant colors and the fancy DSP.
I used this layout to make a new card with Cutest Cows. Mixing the Zoo Crew DSP from the Annual Catalog and the Most Adored DSP from the current Sale-a-bration Catalog created a coordinated look. It’s amazing how well our products match with each other.
The Real Red, Daffodil Delight and Granny Apple Green Blends add a bit of whimsy to this fun card.
Isn’t this cow adorable? So cute and charming.
I would love to see your cards created with this layout. You can post them on my Facebook page if you want to share.

Today I’m excited to show you Wiper Cards. This was a new card technique for me, and I had a lot of fun trying it out. I can’t wait to make another one! These cards are called Wiper Cards because they have a moving element that resembles a windshield wiper…kind of.
This is the card open.
This is the card folded up tp go in the envelope.
I combined the Beary Cute Bundle with the Merriest Trees Bundle to create my card. I love the result. The bear is so cute, and the trees make a lovely background. My card base is Pretty Peacock & I matched the Balmy Blue DSP with Cherry Cobbler DSP to add some contrast.
Measurements:
Card Base 8 ½” x 4 ¼” Score at 1 ½” & 3”
Bridge 8 ½” x 2 ¼” – The bridge can vary in width depending on your pop-up image. Score at 1 ½” & 3”
DSP Side panel 4” x 1 ¼”
DSP Two bridge pieces 2” x 1 ¼” One bridge piece 2” x 3 ¾”
Inside DSP 5 ¼” x 4”

Our technique this week is Heat Embossing. I think heat embossing is a technique that wows new stampers. It is magical to see powder turn into a raised shiny image – magic for sure.
I searched my stamps for an image that would work as a white silhouette image on a dark cardstock color. Dragonfly Garden caught my eye, and I knew it would look stunning on Starry Sky cardstock. Layering it with Basic White makes the focus image pop.
Here is a close up so you can see the embossing.
Let’s hop on to see what everyone else has to share. Enjoy!

Hello from beautiful Brighton, Colorado. If you are already a subscriber welcome back. If you arrived from a blog link I am glad to have you here.
Today I am participating in the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop. This month it is a color challenge. Bright colors are some of my favorites, but my goodness, this one had me stumped. After trying several stamp sets and DSP… I decided to just go for it! This is what I finally came up with-a bright cup of tea
The bright colors make me smile and the sweet flower blossoms are a fun addition. I used a Poppy Parade Blend to color the orange flower blossom so it would look more like Melon Mambo and I used a blends and a blending brush to softly color the Bermuda Bay tea cup. Blends are so handy.

Stampin’ Dreams is blog hopping with Christmas in July.
Do you start your Christmas card crafty early? I love making my Christmas cards early so when the holidays come around, I am finished, and I can enjoy all the fun and celebrations.
The new 2022 July to January Mini catalog has a BUNCH of fabulous Christmas stamp sets. I chose to feature Trees for Sale stamp and the Tree Lot dies. The Tree Lot dies are free with a $50.00 (US) purchase during Sale-a-bration. Free is always good.
I paired the stamps set with Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper. This paper may look familiar because it is returning from last year’s catalog. It is so pretty, I’m glad they brought it back.
The white snow on the tress is die cut from white glimmer paper. It is so sparkly. Little touches like this shiny paper make your cards pop. Of course, the sky is coated with Wink of Stella.
Thanks for stopping by today. Make sure you hop on to the next blogger for even more Christmas inspiration.

It has been a busy spring and start of summer. I really am having trouble keeping up! LOL
I decided to try a Sketch Challenge to help me get back in the swing of things.
The Global Design Project is always one of my go-to sketches and I always get creative ideas from the team. Sketch #348 is so soft and simple. You know I adore simple.
I also kept my card clean and simple, but went with brighter colors.
I stamped ink splatters in the Pool Party card base, you only need to stamp around the edges.
Next, I took a dauber, Pool Party, and a mask from the new Artistic Mix Masks. This created the focal point in the center of the card.
I stamped the Polka Dot Bathing Suit with Real Red on a scrap of Basic White and fussy cut it with my snips. The sentiment is Real Red also.
Can you see how I gave a nod to the tiny heart? The new Heart Pearls are so fun.
I had so much fun creating this card. I smiled the entire time….
