Hey guys, Today I am sharing a fun technique where I am stamping with blocks. So, today I have two cards doing that! Contrarily I don’t make fast/easy cards….I like a challenge! Moreover, if you watch me regularly, my guess is you like advanced cards/techniques too! Of course, every once in a while I decide to go simple, it’s not often but it happens! Therefore, If you missed my video you can catch it here, it goes live at 4!! Every Thursday (unless I am out of the state) I do a Live or pre-recorded video. But, If you haven’t seen any of them, check out my channel, I have HUNDREDS of videos!
Significantly for a lot of you is that I offer FREE PDF’s of my video projects! In order to be on the list, you need to sign up for my Newsletter, (look for it beside the post). Every week I will send you the step by step instructions PLUS pictures that I did the week before! Of course, my hope is that you sign up and that you are inspired to create!

Last Chance List- going, going, gone!

Finally
Of course, I always want to tell you how much I appreciate you! Specifically, The fact that you are reading this, thrills me!

Hey guys, Campology is one of my favorites and it’s Retiring…What. Eventually, new favorites will be found. Nevertheless, be sure and get this set before it’s gone! for my cards today I already had it planned and then saw it was retiring. However, I’ve gotten to look at the NEW Catalog and I KNOW I will have new favorites!
Basically to get this set, click here and you will be taken right there! Of course for my video today I will be using this stamp set, BUT I am also making a Light Up card! Undeniably I love the lantern a lot and the fact I can make it light up is so much fun! Indeed, my videos are every Thursday, I do a live every other week and a recorded one every other week. For one thing I need to have certain days where I can do it ahead of time. Hence the reason I do a Live every other week. Of course, Hope you can join me!
Retiring…What!? Campology cards

Do you like to belong to a Community?
As a matter of fact, I LOVE being included in things. Moreover, once I joined Stampin’ Up! and went to their gatherings, I felt like I belonged! Not only do I have fun seeing/purchasing things earlier than others, but the friends I have made when I joined are the Best! Of course the positive things I get are the reason I’ve been a Demonstrator since 2003! Not surprisingly, imagining NOT being a part of the SU! community makes me sad, so I’ve decided I’m not leaving! Ha! Subsequently If you would like to join, I would LOVE it if you would join under me, click here to sign up! So, Retiring…What!? definitely doesn’t apply to me!
Finally
Emphatically I would like you to know how much I appreciate you taking time out of your day and spending it with me! All in all, If you are ever free on a Thursday at 4:00 (eastern) come visit me on YouTube, where I have HUNDREDS of videos! Overall it’s one of my favorite things to talk with you! Thank you!

Hey guys, Ladybugs are everywhere! I am in the mindset of using any stamp sets that ‘might’ retire that would make me sad. The Hello Ladybug IS one of those! This way if it retires, I can at least say I used it before it left. So, ladybugs are everywhere in my cards for today. Except one card uses the ladybug bundle and makes a butterfly! If you missed my video for today, you can catch it here! Of course I tell you every week that I do weekly videos on my YouTube channel. For instance, last week I did a Live and this week I am doing a recorded video. My hope is that I can get you to subscribe to my channel AND sign up for my Newsletters where I give you that weeks PDF’s for free.
Ladybugs are Everywhere!
This is a fancy fold AND I teach you how to splatter!
Would you like the PDF’s for these cards?
Surprisingly, I give them away to those who sign up for my Newsletter! Moreover, I send them out each week, so you are hopefully, inspired each week! Of course, I add in little tidbits of what’s going on that week, and sometimes I have big news!! Particularly the retired list is coming out, and I would bet you would want to know what is leaving. Want to get a catalog FREE in the mail, let me know and I will send you one! It IS free, but I ask you to send me $10 for mailing. Inside your catalog will be a $10 Gift Certificate so basically it’s free!
Lastly
Every week I thank you for coming, and I mean every word! YOU can go anywhere and the fact you are reading this means a ton to me. After watching the video be sure and check out the post on Besties!

Hey Guys, I’m making a Reflection card today as well as a cool card using Heron Habitat over on YouTube! The Reflection card uses Rhino Ready the stamp set only sold OnLine. BOTH of these sets you just might want to get sooner rather than later. As far as Heron Habitat, the dies are already sold out and they aren’t coming back. Of course this means that this stamp set is retiring. As far as Rhino Ready goes, it is only available OnLine, so we don’t know how long it will be there.
Reflection card
I used a Wite Out pen!
Get the PDF’s! Even the Reflection Card
Presently, you can get the PDF’s for both these projects, just by signing up for my Newsletter!! This can be found to the right on my Blog. Every week, I do a video and make PDFs which I then share to those who are on my Newsletter list!! Surely, getting a free PDF is a deal, I send out my Newsletter a couple times a month, so these add up!
Want more PDF’s?
Another key point is that I also offer another PDF with 16 projects! By comparison of my tiny PDF’s with only one project each one, this one has the same step by step instructions along with color photo’s, only this one has 16! How do you get it, you ask…you only need purchase $35 worth of product from me in My Online Store! As shown below, here is a sneak peek:
Lastly
Of course I say this all the time, but I really mean it, THANK you! Basically I know that you can visit anywhere online, the fact you visit my blog and watch my videos mean so much to me! I appreciate you so much! Henceforth I would love it if you would join me on my Lives (every other week) so I could thank you in person AND get to talk with you! As far as my videos, I do a Live every other week and fill in with ones I do beforehand, so I have a video every week. I emphatically hope to see you on one of my Lives!

Hey guys, today I am using stamps & dies unconventionally by making the dies/stamps creatively. Of course my brain went somewhere different! When I saw the dies, the trunk reminded me of Lightning. So, I HAD to try and see what I came up with! Now, that’s just one card, the other has the Rhino from the Rhino Ready stamp set hiding in the grass, getting ready to jump into action! Most importantly you can go see the video where I make both cards here!
Stamps Unconventionally
He didn’t pounce, he came out to say hi!!
Dies Unconventionally
I giggle when I see this card, hope you like it! Be sure and watch video since I changed it up a little.
Talk about Stamps & Dies Unconventionally!!
For those who love the Unconventional, click here to see another post. Here is one more sample I made a while ago, that I was tickled with!! Of course, if you want to see the video I have it!!
This uses an upside down Snowman die with another die to make a keyhole!!
Get the PDF’s for FREE!!
Be sure and sign up for my Newsletter (see blog to right), I send out the PDF’s to my list, so be sure and be on it! Making Stamps & Dies Unconventionally is not something I am new at, be sure and check this out, and this! Of course it’s that easy, to get my PDF’s. On account that I am a giver and a people pleaser, hope you sign up so you too can get them!
MORE PDF’s
This time, the PDF has 16 projects on it! Not to mention that all 16 projects have instructions and color photo’s! How do you get it? In this situation you only need to purchase $35 or more with me, you can click any picture below to head to my OnLine Store! Here is a sneak peek!!
Finally
To enumerate, you KNOW if you have followed me that I love and appreciate you! In essence, you could go anywhere to get ideas, the fact you came here is not lost on me! In brief YOU matter to me! Thank you!

Hey Guys, I’m so excited to share with you Alternatives for the Kindness Kit along with making the kit! Of course when I opened the kit, I was wowed with how much thought went into making this something to share with others. It is so pretty! But, you KNOW I have to change things up, so I made TWO alternatives for the Kindness Kit!! Overall, I do my video every Thursday at 4:00 eastern. If you are late to this blog you can go see what you missed on my YouTube page!
Kindness Kit details:
My Alternatives for Kindness Kit
Want a FREE Pdf of BOTH of these projects!?
Every time I have a video I make a PDF for my projects. After that, I send out a Newsletter with the PDF’s included! How do YOU sign up for the Newsletter? It’s easy, you only need to look at the right when you’re reading my blog and fill out the form for my Newsletter! Because I don’t send out Newsletters EVERY week, I send out what I made between the Newsletters. This way you won’t miss out on anything, but you are also not getting a NL EVERY week! Of course, I am one of those ‘giving people’ so I want to be sure that you have access to whatever I make. So, my ask is that you sign up! After all, you only need to look at the things I have blogged to give you an idea of what you will be getting, click here to see!
Join the Besties Club!
Important to realize is that I offer a Club that is probably the BEST deal you will come across! Basically the Besties are my 2 Friends and I each make 2 cards using the same products (ever see Chopped!?). This must be remembered that the three of us have the same product to use, we NEVER come up with the same ideas! Of course there is no kidding here, every month I learn something new and I have been stamping for over 22 years!
Another key point, each month with your kit you get $22 approx. of product! Chiefly it is a roll of ribbon, a package of Embellishments and a half pack of DSP, plus you get a PDF with all 6 projects! Moreover, you will get all the ingredients to make the cards (cut & ready for you to put together!) we also have a Facebook group where we have contests, share tips and have fun! You also get a pillow gift! All this for $40 for porch pickup or $47 if I need to mail it!
Of course we also tell you what is coming the next month so if you want to buy the stamps/bundle you can, but it is not necessary you can always use what you have on hand! To emphasize, this month is our TWO year anniversary! Certainly when we started I don’t think any of us thought we would be still going strong two years later! To explain, If you want more info look at the top bar on my blog and click on The Stampin’ Besties Club.
Finally
Certainly, I always say thank you in this spot. But I’m not sure if you realize how MUCH I appreciate you being here! As a matter of fact, I know you have choices for where you spend your time. At the same time, If you spent ANY of it with me, I am thankful! Of course, my hope is that I can help you with your crafting needs too! Given that, see you next time!

Of course, you have realized that I like fancy folds, but did you know that animals are a BIG deal to me? When I was young I was not close to ANYONE in my family and our pets are what brought me love. Today, I am close with my immediate family, but I still love hanging out with my animals! However, I’m sure you’ve seen my cat come say hi on my Lives! 🙂 So, if you would like to see the Floating Gate Fold made, click here to be taken to my YouTube video!

Hey Guys!, today I have Techniques & Fancy Folds along with Solving problems! Have you ever tried to color something you already Embossed with Powders? For some reason the Blends don’t work with them. Of course, I still want to use my embossing powders and use Blends, so with my Stamparatus I have brought the two together perfectly! You can watch my video where I walk you through the steps.
Techniques, do you like them?
You may remember that I used to have a channel where every Tuesday I would do Two techniques. I called it Twosday’s Techniques and I posted on Vimeo (you can still find them there!). Well, I love techniques because using them gives more life to your stamping supplies. Anything that lets me come up with cool cards/scrapbook pages is in my wheel house. For todays video I am showing how to use two products that are like oil and water, but teaching you how to use them together.
Fancy Folds yay or nay?
I would love to know if you like Fancy Folds? Obviously I like them, but I don’t want to do them as often if YOU don’t! Sometimes I get bored with the cards folded the regular way, there is only so many ways you can change it up. After all there is landscape and portrait, that’s pretty much it! Of course the challenge is whether it fits in our envelopes, If I find a fancy fold that won’t fit in our envelopes, I tend to stear clear. What do you think? I’d love to know what you like.
Techniques & Fancy Folds!
These cards are very fun to make, the first one I got the fold from Sue Campfield, and the other one I saw on Pinterest, both I designed myself, hope you love them as much as I do! Techniques & Fancy Folds are my jam!
You can get BOTH PDF’s by signing up for my Newsletter (upper right of post), each time I do a pdf I send it to my Newsletter people. Get ready to get a bunch of ideas!!
Last chance!
This year seems to be speeding by once again. You only have one month left to get your Sale-a-Bration free stamps! Spend $50 and you can pick out from this one or others! Click on the link and you will be in my store, you can see all the items for SAB by clicking on the specials tab. IF you spend enough to get a Free SAB item, you also spent enough to get my PDF with 16 projects with pictures and step by step instructions! DOUBLE Sale!!
Also I want to let you know if you decide to join (hopefully under me!) you have three choices:
You will love my Team Lets Stamp! We have a lot of fun and I send out 1 free stamp set every month!
Sorry I was gone for a month
Some of you already know this but I went to DisneyWorld with my family last month! We spent 8 days with all my grandkids and all three of my daughters with 2 of their significant others. Every day was full of waking up before dawn, opening the park (rope drop anyone!?) and then trying to get all our rides that we ‘had to’ ride before it got too busy. Can I tell you that the new Guardians of the Galaxy ride is so awesome! I have a bad neck due to my accident when I broke my C2 vertebrae, so most roller coasters I worry will exacerbate my condition, but the Guardians ride was so smooth and fun! If they let us I’m sure we would have got right back in line!
As if that wasn’t enough, we also spent 4 days at Universal Studios, also opening the park! Let’s just say we left our ‘vacation’ more tired than we started! 🙂 All of us have decided that NEXT time, Universal will only be 1-2 days and being a Disney Family we still HAVE to spend a day at each park. BUT we will add in rest days so we can recoup and enjoy the resort.
Anyone here a Disney Fan? I moved to CA in 1969, grew up going to Disney. Then we moved all around the states and once we moved to NC we figured we could still be a Disney Family, but this time it would be Disney World. I LOVE Disney and feel my happiest when I am there, you?
That’s it for today!
I hope you enjoyed your visit! Please come back next week for my next round of cards/video. NOT sure if I will do a Live on YouTube or just upload a video. All depends on my time and schedule! Thank you so much for coming, I really appreciate you!
