The DOstamperSTARS are excited to bring you another Stamping with the STARS Inspiration Hop #DOswts411. This week we're happy to share New Color Inspiration with you. My favorite New Color is Pecan Pie. Which is perfect for the Little Monkey Bundle. It also happens to be one of my favorite pies too! How cute is this little monkey?! This card was so much fun to make. It was especially delightful when I noticed the Fresh as a Daisy Designer Series Paper had a couple of patterns that helped give this card a tropical feeling...fun! How'd She DO That? Little Monkey... Continue reading

You're in store for a treat today...the Secret Lock Fun Fold card! This was one of 3 projects I did for my [email protected] Club last summer, and want to share it with you today. I came across this style of card on YouTube (Gerry's Craft Room). It was more of a slimline card size and was done in portrait mode. I loved the style of card, but wanted it sized to fit Stampin' Up! medium size envelopes. So I put my math hat on and adjusted the measurements accordingly. How'd She DO That? Secret Lock Fun Fold card Stamps/Bundles: Happiness... Continue reading

It's that time of year. Stampin' Up! retiring time of year! In addition, Stampin' Up! colors are undergoing a Color Refresh. They typically do this every 5 or so years (last one was in 2018). I've been kinda of expecting a refresh soon, so I'm not surprised. Heads up: When you look over the retired list including Retiring Colors, don't be taken aback by it's size. A color refresh typically rearranges the colors in our families too. Which means the color families retire as well - along with their assorted color offerings. Plus every color that is retiring, there are... Continue reading
