Hello everyone! Here’s this weeks Terrific Tuesday card. It can be super simple or you can step it up to make it a bit more fancy. Time required to make is minimal in both cases. Also features butterflies which I love. Thanks to Pootles Papercraft from the UK for inspiration.

Another terrific Tuesday card. My stash always runs low on Masculine Birthday cards so today we are making one to help replenish my stash. This card goes together so quickly, and it’s a great way to use of some of your Designer Series Paper scraps.

Happy Tuesday everyone. Can’t believe another week has flown by, and it’s time for our Terrific Tuesday card. Our card is very similar to last week’s, but using a different fold technique. We are doing an angled fold this time. Same Designer Series Paper but different pattern. These cards are so quick to make, and can be for any occasion using any stamp set you have on hand.

How’s it going everybody? Everything is great up here on the hill. What a beautiful cool day here in Colorado. My kind of day, but 90+ days are coming back after Wednesday.
Today’s card features the absolutely beautiful Thoughtful Journey 6×6 Designer Series Paper. Can’t get enough of this paper. I think it is some of the prettiest Stampin Up has ever done. Lay out is thanks to Connie Stewart of Simplysimplestamping. Here’s the card.

Hello everyone. How’s it going? We are having a scorcher today. Mid 90s for the next couple of days which is very unusual for Colorado in Mid-June. Whew! Another video means another post. I know it’s not Tuesday, but I had a full day of running around yesterday with appointments for my husband. He is now driving so I am hoping my running around will slow down. Enough chit chat, let’s get on with today’s card. I am featuring the Unbounded Love bundle from the 24-25 Annual Catalog. Card is quick, simple, easy, and maximizes the use of our 6×6 Designer Series Paper. Thanks to CraftyAl for the cutting diagram.
What do you think?

Greetings everyone. I was beginning to think I would never get back to doing a video. My husband had hip replacement surgery on April 18th, and we didn’t realize how much work it would take to get him on the road to recovery. He is doing very well, but still has six weeks to go before he can bend from the waist. He’s walking with a cane, but very close to getting rid of that help. Hopefully from this point forward I can get back on my regular crafting schedule.
Today’s card is for graduation. Probably a bit late for some of you, but there are still ceremonies going on in schools. This card features one of my favorite fun folds. It opens like a book, and pretty easy to make.

Greetings all! Another Tuesday and another card. One of our church members is celebrating his 82nd birthday soon, and he was a dairy farmer for many years. So I made him a Cutest Cow birthday card. Had such fun doing this one, and I know he will enjoy the card. Of course we have our own cows so it’s appropriate. Stamp set comes with a matching punch which makes it very easy to do the cow focal point.

Sorry to have been absent for so long. Myriad technical difficulties which I believe have now been resolved. Blog has a new look after a major rebuild. Today’s card is one of my most favorite fun folds – Book Fold. I love books, and am always reading which might explain why I like this fold so much.
This card can be made in any color, and for any occasion. Today I am featuring a card that none of us like to make, but are necessary. Circle of life requires Sympathy cards. Some of the things I used on the card are no longer available, but you can use whatever you might have in your stash. Here you go:

Greetings! Here’s the Terrific Tuesday card for this week. Are you one who loves the color purple? I certainly am which explains why I am featuring the Perennial Lavender suite of products. You can find these products on page 22-25 of the 2024 January to April Mini Catalog. These products will be available until end of April. After that they are gone unless StampinUp decides to carry all or some of the items over to new Annual Catalog which will be live first part of May. I am hoping SU does carry over the whole line of products featured in the Perennial Lavender Suite.
My card today is an all occasion card suitable for any occasion. I used a generic greeting which makes it easy for to me make card appropriate for any circumstance.

Good morning everyone! I posted my usual card on yesterday, but when I finished card didn’t look right. I have been sick, and tested positive for COVID so blaming it on my sick brain. Realizing the mistake I made, I have made a short video showing how the card should have looked. The recipe below is for the corrected card. So today you get two videos!

First version is okay, but I think second version is better. Designer Series Paper pops more on the second version.

Hope you enjoy this card. Most of my regulars at my card classes know I canceled class next week. I am being cautious about passing this COVID thing to anyone, and my energy level isn’t such that I could prepare for class. Praying we will be meeting in March on the 21st and 22nd. Take care everyone. Blessings!
