Paper Goods Feature at STAMPlorations!

Hi everybody! Happy Thursday – here’s wishing you an awesome and productive day! Hopefully you’re having some nice weather where you are! I’m absolutely thrilled to share that I’ve scored another guest design gig for the next three months showcasing projects created with the new Paper Goods at STAMPlorations! Woo-hoo! Affiliate links are used in this post at no cost to you. I really appreciate your support! OMGoodness, these products are ah-maaaazing and you are in for some fabulous inspiration! For my first feature I have four projects to share using the Artsy Florals A2 Card Fronts, available in the Paper Goods section of the store. These Quick Cards are awesome and I personally recommend having at least one of every pattern in your stash! Even though three of my four projects are cards, the sky is the limit with regard to the types of projects you can create with these! And they are not only gorgeous but they are printed on 120# cardstock!

My first project is an anniversary card featuring the Artsy Florals Card Front with layers of flowers fussy cut from an identical Card Front, embellished with Nuvo Morning Dew Crystal Drops.

The standard A2 size top-folding landscape card base was cut from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock with a layering panel cut from CutCardStock Pop-Tone 65# Grape Jelly cardstock. Front sentiment is from the Better Together stamp set.

The inside panel was cut from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock with a layering panel and embellishing strips cut from CutCardStock Pop-Tone 65# Grape Jelly cardstock. Inside sentiment is also from the Better Together stamp set.

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We have 10 feline rescues. I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty lovins! ;)
