Stampers Dozen Fun Fold Blog Hop

Hello Stamping Friends,

Don't you just love blog hops? You can garner so much inspiration in just a few clicks. I'm back today with another great blog hop with the Stampers Dozen. This month's theme is Fun Fold Cards. Now that is exciting, if you ask me. 

Fun fold cards are fun to make, fun to give, and even more fun to receive.  Sometimes crafters find them difficult to make and overwhelming to conquer, but this card is actually pretty easy to make. It's called a double z-fold card. 

And I love letting my designer series paper do the majority of the work. Isn't this a great color combo, too? My two favorite colors, pink and green. The black just makes those two colors pop even more. 

Another thing that has my name all over it is the typewriter. I sure wish I kept mine from my high school/college days. I saw one about a year ago in a shop and couldn't believe the price they were asking for this great memory from days gone by. 

This card is seriously fun to make. Once it was done, I set it up and just admired it. Do you ever admire your creations?

July-December 2022 Mini Catalog Blog Hop

Hello Stamping Friends,

Here today for a great blog hop sharing ideas from the awesome July-December 2022 Mini Catalog. You won't want to miss any of the link that you will find below because there's so much inspiration.

I love old typewriters. (Now that I don't need to use them and worry about making a mistake) I just had to get this new set when I saw the typewriter.  I even made my typewrite blue like the one I had as a kid. 

I also used some new black and white designer paper to really make my image pop and be the focal point of my card. I love the contrast of the black and white triangles on the card. It's really easy to achieve. Just cut your layer down to the next size (in this case, it was 3 3/4" x 5") and then cut on an angle from one corner to the opposite diagonal corner. So you will end up with pieces to make two cards after cutting two different designs.

There was some fussy cutting since I wanted the typewriter blue and the paper white, but it wasn't too bad and was all worth it in the end. I actually made 14 cards so it really wasn't awful at all.
