Stampin' Up! Tools and Tool Tips

A Bit of a Different Style

March 3, 2023 by Robin

Hi, There, Stampers! If you've followed me for any time at all, you know that the style of my card-making/stamping is to layer things up and arrange items carefully on my card fronts. But earlier this week I decided to break free from what I usually do and try something totally different. I think I succeeded at least partially. What is "Shabby Chic"? I belong to a group of Stampin' Up! … [Read more...] about A Bit of a Different Style

Adhesive Sheets to the Rescue!

February 22, 2023 by Robin

Hi, There, Stampers! If you are like me, you have a hard time getting Multipurpose Liquid Glue on tiny parts of die-cuts. I invariably use too much glue and it gets all over my fingers and my project I hate that! But…Adhesive Sheets to the rescue! How Do Adhesive Sheets Work? These sheets are 6” x 12“of adhesive between two sheets of paper. You peel off the paper backing and apply it to the … [Read more...] about Adhesive Sheets to the Rescue!

Another Oldie But Goodie!

February 15, 2023 by Robin

Hi, There, Stampers! You probably know that this website is not the only place where I chat about what I do with my card-making and other paper crafting projects. I also send out occasional e-mails to let my subscribers know what's up with Stampin' Up! as well as what I've been up to. I put projects, including tutorials, in my newsletters that you don't see here. But every once in a while I'll … [Read more...] about Another Oldie But Goodie!

Creative Block? Reach for a Sketch (And Make a Valentine Card!)

February 6, 2023 by Robin

Hi, There, Stampers! Sometimes I sit down at my work station and have no idea what I'm going to make. But I end up making something that I really like. My "secret"? Reach for a sketch. When you’re having a moment for lack of cardmaking ideas, reach for a sketch. Sketches are great for inspirational ideas. Get your supplies together and see what you come up with! Where Did I Find the Sketch for … [Read more...] about Creative Block? Reach for a Sketch (And Make a Valentine Card!)

Amazing Year In a Slimline Card

June 19, 2022 by Robin

Hi, There, Stampers! I'm back with yet another card that I've made with the Amazing Year Stamp Set. Remember that my first impression was that this was a stamp set that was pretty much just for making birthday cards. But here's another card that isn't necessarily a birthday card, though it certainly could be one. And besides focusing on the way I used the stamp set, I'd like to show you how I … [Read more...] about Amazing Year In a Slimline Card

Bottled Happiness – CASEing the Catalog Again!

May 23, 2022 by Robin

Hi, there, Papercrafters! I had so much fun doing all that CASEing (Copy And Share with Everyone) of the Stampin' Up! 2022-23 Annual Catalog last week that I had to try it out again.

Hey Birthday Chick!

October 7, 2021 by Robin

Aloha, all! Last month I had two special birthday cards to make. Today I'd like to share the card that I made for my now 13-year old grandson. I think that teenage boys are just the hardest group of people in the world for whom to figure out a card design. But this young man lives in a household that has had many chickens over the years. I'll share one of the stories I remember from many years … [Read more...] about Hey Birthday Chick!

Some Cute Squirrels for My Customers

September 3, 2021 by Robin

Aloha, all! I tend not to buy stamp sets that exude "cuteness." I'd rather have a set that's versatile enough so that I can use it to be just as artistic as I want to be. A bit of a change of sentiment here, different color combinations there, added embellishments, can make a stamped image as sentimental or cute as I might want it to be. Not so with the Squirrels in the Nuts About You Stamp … [Read more...] about Some Cute Squirrels for My Customers
