I saw this card at a regional convention and had to try it.  Score across the Scallop Square at matching scallops, a couple of snips and a bit of tape and you have a cute little box.  Then of course we made the mini cards to go inside.  The Diagonal Plate on the Simply Scored made it easy to make the matching envelopes.  Great for a hostess gift.

I should have named this A Card full of Cherries!  Cherry Cobbler card stock, and an image of cherries from Mouthwatering.  What you can’t see is that the cherries were embossed with cherry scented embossing powder.  I love the way velum looks when embossed.

What a sweet valentine.  The Hearts Collection Framelits make this easy.  Fold the red layer first and leave a bit of the fold inside the Framelit to leave the 2 pieces attached.  I saw a tip to lay Press and Seal plastic wrap over any line.  Lay out your letters upside down on the line.  Then you can turn the plastic wrap over and place the letters exactly where you want them.

I had a hard time working out how to line up all these layers until I figured out to cut the layers at the same time. Problem solved!

I love that Stampin’ Up! allows me to coordinate stamps and dies as well as ink, paper, ribbon, and other embellishments.

This ornament looks difficult and complicated.  It’s not.  Cut 4 or more pieces of card stock with the Lattice Die.  Fold on the diagonal, add some Baker’s Twine, and glue together.  Hang it on your tree.  Done!

Step it up with Silver Glimmer Paper, Rhinestones, or other embellishments if you like.
