It’s Tutorial Thursday! For today’s post you will get a bonus of two projects (and also next week). The first project is a 3D Star Ornament. Take a piece of Tidings of Christmas 6X6 Designer Series Paper and cut out the smaller and larger plain stars with the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. The starsContinue reading “3D Star Ornament and Santa Tag Treat”

It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended! Today I am using the product, Stampin’ Dimensionals, as they are intended. What I am not doing is applying them the same way. Have you ever stuck a Dimensional to your project only for a little bit of it toContinue reading “When things stick out.”

It’s Technique Tuesday! While usually I give you a tip or a new way to create, today I want to tell you how to revive your dried out stamps. This only works for the red rubber ones, not the photopolymer. I am writing this now because several of you are working on (or finishing up)Continue reading “How to revive your stamps.”

It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to rest so you can be recharged for the week. Are you stuck in a rut? Every day you wake up and say “here we go again”. I know there have been times for me that I wake up and feel that it is the same day overContinue reading “Stop allowing yourself to fall in the rut.”

It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to give back or pay it forward. Today I want to talk to you about that one “friend” or job or family member or… that you can only take in small doses and afterwards you are exhausted. Is there a reason you keep coming back for more? PartContinue reading “Setting Boundaries”

It’s Tutorial Thursday! For today’s tutorial I will explain why I am saying this is a backwards card and I will show you how to stretch a punch. So let’s begin. Most cards have a sentiment on the accent piece and not for the background. This card has it exactly opposite or backwords. The sentimentContinue reading “A backwards card with a stretched punch.”

It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended! Today is not too wacky but instead how to twist and stretch the punch. In this case the Elegant Punch is used to create an accent piece. To be able to make a piece longer than the actual punch youContinue reading “How to stretch a punch.”

It’s Technique Tuesday! Today instead of a technique I want to remind you to not be scared. It’s only paper, glue, and scissors. Do not be scared that it won’t be perfect. It won’t. It’s handmade. Don’t be scared that the paper will be cut. Cut into it. There will be more. Don’t be scaredContinue reading “Don’t be scared.”
