Cards by Heather Green

So, very true! 🤣

This is what happens when a friend commissions a card before you’ve finished the one you were working on and your whole craftroom explodes. But I made a couple of cards! :)

It’s the most wonderful time of year for crafters in the general Bellevue, WA area! Come check out all of the great deals and post your favorite finds in the comments!

The new Stampin’ Up! catalog just went live, and I couldn’t wait to play with the Free as a Bird set!

As part of my efforts to get more organized, I’ve decided to create a binder with a visual inventory of all my stamps so that I can easily find the perfect set. I’m now cataloguing each stamp set as I use it because the idea of doing my whole collection all at once is overwhelming. What organization tips have been helpful for you?

Hello and happy new year! (How are we already half-way through February??) Since it’s been cold and snowy here, I felt inspired to continue to with Christmas cards. Here’s my first card of the year.

Stay warm and craft on, my friends!

I finally got into the craft room and made this Halloween card using the Detailed Gate Thinlit set and Graveyard Gate stamp set from the new Stampin' Up! holiday catalog.

Quick tip: There are a number of ways to adhere intricate die-cuts, and no method is perfect. But this is my favorite right now. I saw this can of spray adhesive with all my sewing stuff and decided to give it a try. It makes very easy work of these snowflake corners! Just be sure to go over the adhered die-cut with your embossing buddy (anti-static bag) to de-stick any of the spray adhesive that may have gotten to the top of your die-cut.

Today kicks off Stampin' Up!'s end-of-year close-out! Now is a great time to grab anything from the holiday catalog that you like but haven't gotten around to buying or to stock up on retired paper and embellishments while they're back. There are some great deals, too, especially on the retired paper and embellishments.
