It's time for another Festive Friday Challenge! Every second Friday we post a challenge for you with a specific theme and an Inspo List of 10 items to choose from to create your project. We encourage you to create a project based on the theme and Inspo List and then post it using at least 3 items from the inspiration list.
Have you spotted the adorable rhino in the March Online Exclusives? Oh my gosh, these little rhinos are so cute. You can't help yourself but smile! Check out this fun card I created - one of the rhinos has decided to hide, well, sort of hide, behind the bush. I participated in a Crazy Challenge - we were asked to use Blackberry Bliss and Smoky Slate on our project.
One of my favourite bundles from the January to April Stampin' Up! Mini Catalogue is Sweet Citrus. I love Hybrid Embossing Folders that you can use to cut and emboss at the same time. Amazing, right!
I’m so excited to be featured in the the International Highlights Top Ten Winners Blog Hop hosted by Kylie Bertucci. I was selected to participate in this hop by finishing in the top 10 in the March 2023 International Highlights. Thank you to everyone who voted for my Around the Bend card.
It's time for another Share It Sunday Blog Hop! We are a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world and we are sharing our projects with you as part of this blog hop. There is no theme for our blog hop today.
One of my favourite bundles from the January to April Mini Catalogue is the Nested Friends Bundle. I just love the little bird and the nest. I created this pretty card on a recent live. The Stitched Greenery Die is a perfect background with the leaves. The dies for the nest and branch make this card easy.
Isn't this pretty!

The April kit features the Stampin' Up!® Irresistible Blooms
I have been having so much fun playing with the Playing in the Rain Suite from the Stampin' Up! January to April Mini Catalogue. All of the little critters make me smile! I changed up the fox and created a wolf on my card today.
Welcome to the Trip Achievers Blog Hop. I am so honoured to be participating in this Blog Hop and I am so thankful for the support I received from my Customers and Team Members so that I could achieve this trip (less than 1% of demonstrators world wide earn this trip)! Thank you so much! We're off on a cruise to the Norwegian Fjords in May 2023!
Every other Thursday night I show a technique on Facebook and YouTube. My card this week featured the Stained Glass technique using Vellum and Stampin' Blends. I used the beautiful Hues of Happiness from the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue. I love how this card turned out.
I'm back with another casual card for the Casually Crafting Blog Hop. We're a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators that love to stamp and love to share. We share card and projects that are simple and easy to create with a few products and are perfect for the beginner and casual stamper. Our blog hop goes live on the third Saturday of each month. I hope you'll join us and "hop" around our group to be inspired!
It's time for another Festive Friday Challenge! Every second Friday we post a challenge for you with a specific theme and an Inspo List of 10 items to choose from to create your project.

Time for another Creativity Abounds Blog Hop! We are a group of very keen Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from all around the world who are coming together to share our creative ideas with you. We are happy that you can join us and hope that we can inspire you to make creations of your own. You may be starting here or you may have come from someone else's blog - either way there is a list at the end of this post to help you move around all the different blogs and get many amazing ideas. We all have our country listed - so if you are looking for a demonstrator in your country, these demonstrators would love to look after you with your Stampin' Up!® shopping or if you would like to join our Stampin' Up!® teams.
I had fun making a drapery fold card on a recent Zoom class. It's always fun to pull out a technique you haven't tried for a long time. Today I'm participating in a Crazy Challenge on Instagram with other demonstrators - we were challenged to make a project using the Simply Succulents Stampset and Happy Forest Designer Series Paper.
