ISS Blog Hop – Fabulous Fun Folds

Have you ever seen a card design that was pretty unpractical but so cool you just had to make it? Those are the best kinds of fun folds. This card is too big for a normal envelope. It measures at 6″ x 8″ when closed. It’s kind of flimsy, and can be difficult to pick…

ISS Blog Hop – Celebrating Birthdays

Are birthdays underrated? Last week I was searching through my stash of cards for a birthday card and I had a hard time finding one. It was for a coworker, someone I liked but didn’t know particularly well, so all of my “you’re such a great friend” cards didn’t feel appropriate. I finally found one…

ISS Blog Hop – Grateful

This month is Thanksgiving, my favorite holiday. There’s nothing like good food and being with family to remind me to be thankful. On that note, we thought this month should be all about gratitude. Admittedly, this isn’t the most fall-themed card, but once I got the idea in my head I knew I wanted to…

ISS Blog Hop – Fall Colors

For this month, we wanted to play with some fall colors! Fall is my favorite season, and the color profile matches my alma mater, so I love these colors. I made two designs using More Than Autumn, a super cute and versatile stamp set from the Sept-Dec 2024 mini catalog. I am really happy with…

Seasonal Shopping Sampler

I have a goal to have paper samplers for every season, and maybe every holiday someday. This piece doesn’t fit that exactly, but I also love samplers that feature the…

ISS Blog Hop – 2024-2026 In Colors

For this month’s blog hop, we decided to feature the new in colors! I thought it would be fun to make a card that looks more intricate, like the ones I see in the catalog that have lots of thing die cut out and glued behind sentiments with ribbon and lots of embellishments. And like…

I’m so excited to be a part of the Inspire Create Share Blog Hop! This month we want to introduce the new in colors! They are so bright and fun and full of energy–I’ve been using them in a ton of projects lately. I ended up making a few different versions of this card, not…

ISS Blog Hop – New Catalog Favorites

For this month’s blog hop, we wanted to play with our favorite new products! I was very excited to play with the Layers of Beauty bundle. The decorative masks create the most beautiful image of roses, especially when you use blending brushes to add the color, as I did for this card. Tip: I also…

ISS Blog Hop – Step it Up for Spring

For this month’s blog hop, we decided to make double the cards! Spring is here and the new catalogue approaches, so we have lots of excitement for stamping. We made two cards: one simpler, and one “stepped up”. The idea is showing how different products can be used to enhance a design, while also showing…
