MISSED MONDAY’S MEMORY KEEPING BUT HERE IT IS NOW

My memory keeping project was ready to be shared yesterday but life intervened. So here it is now!

This week I am featuring three new products, from the September – December 2025 Mini Catalogue, available from TOMORROW September 3rd.

JOYFUL DAYS MEMORIES & MORE CARD PACK (165822 $20.25AUD)

GREETINGS FOR YOU MIX & MATCH EPHEMERA PACK (166208 $15AUD)

CHRISTMAS GREETINGS MIX & MATCH SPECIALTY CARDS & ENVELOPES

Being Monday, my project is a scrapbooking layout.

The base is a Real Red Two-tone card and I used some of the Memories & More Cards, Flip Flaps and two of the Nested Essentials Dies to create the journaling space.

After attaching all of the cards to the base I wrapped a length of Old Olive Linen Thread around the paper and tied a bow. The thread is from the new Early Espresso & Old Olive Linen Thread (165986 $15.75).

Finally I added the ‘Happy Christmas’ and ‘joy’ from the Greetings for You Ephemera Pack to the page.

This is a simple layout but will e a great way to keep some Christmas memories alive.

Tomorrow I have a card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

FRIDAY IS MY FUN FOLD PROJECT DAY!

This card is my interpretation of a creative challenge from one of the groups that I am part of. This is the source ofinspiration for the challenge: https://bit.ly/4lUJJtg

For my card, I have continued to use the Harvest Home Garland Kit.

I needed to create a ‘door’ that, when opened, would pull out and reveal other elements.

For this, I chose the Everyday Arches Dies to create a top opening door in a landscape card.

Using a Cajun Craze base with a panel of paper from the Woven Textures 12″x 12″ Desiger Series Paper, I used one of the Everyday Arches Dies to cut out the opening.

I cut this shape out a few more times to create a hinged ‘door’.

A length of Linen Thread was wrapped several times across the top of the card before being tid in a bow.

To decorate the front of the ‘door’, I added a Very Vanillla leaf from the kit and embossed a lighter Cajun Craze leaf with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder. After these were added to the ‘door’ front, I added half an acorn.

I took a 1/2′ strip of card, folded it back 1/2″ and adhered it to the back of the ‘door’. Then I adhered two more leaves to it.

When the card is closed and the ‘door’ opened, the two extra leaves are pulled up.

The card has a panel of Very Vanilla card adhered inside.

The greeting, from the Beautiful Motifs Stamp Set, was stamped using Cajun craze ink and hen cut using the smallest of the Everyday Arches Dies. I attached it to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Then I added some of the new Cajun Craze & Gold Dots to the card, both on the front and inside.

I love the way the leaves look after they are embossed.

Woohoo – I am so happy with the projects I have made this week using the Harvest Home Garland Kit.

WHICH ONE DO YOU LIKE THE BEST? WHICH ONE WOUD YOU MAKE?

Please reach out and let me know.

Next week I will another collection of projects to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

IT IS THURSDAY & THAT MEANS IT IS TIME FOR A 3D PROJECT

Today I have a great little 3’x 3″x 1 1/2″ gift box to share with you.

I have used Secret Sea A4 cardstock for the box and some 2025 – 2027 In Colour Designer Series Paper.

The box can be unfolded and laid flat using only ribbon to hold it closed and in shape.

I will make a vidoe showing how to make this box soon.

The Secret Sea box has been embellished using the Designer Series Paper.

When the box was formed and secured with Secret Sea Faux Linen Ribbon, I added some of the gray leaves from the Harvest Home Garland Kit.

I painted each leaf with some Clear Wink of Stella before adding them to the top of the box.

The top of the box has two halves, each with an additional 1″ vertical extension that has been punched to allow the ribbon to be threaded through.

The greeting, from the Loveliest Tree Stamp Set, was stamped and then cut using one of the Nested Essentials Dies. After adding Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the label I popped it on the box.

The final task was to add some of the Neutral Matte Dots to the box.

Untie the bow, open out the box and this is what it looks like.

Just a few crafting products can result in a great finished project.

Tomorrow I have one more project to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.
