For last week’s Card & Cuppa project, I used the Timeless Tulips Bundle from the new Mini Catalogue. The stamp set is one from the DistINKtive range, so the impressions are even more fabulous. Add to that the matching punch, and you’re onto a winner. My colour combination was Poppy Parade and Daffodil Delight, keeping
For the first Card & Cuppa sessions of 2020, I reached for the fabulous new Lovely Lily Pad Stamp Set. Lovely Lily Pad is a FREE Sale-a-Bration Stamp Set and is one of the Reversibles range from Stampin’ Up! As you can see, the detailed outline stamp is one side of the stamp, with the
For the final Card & Cuppa sessions of the year, I designed this Rudolph punch art project. We just had to do something silly and fun! The Natures’s Beauty Stamp Set provided the snow that was stamped in Seaside Spray. ‘Ho Ho Ho’ is from the Perfectly Plaid Stamp Set and cut out with the

I’ll often ask the attendees to suggest cards they would like to make at Card & Cuppa sessions. A recent suggestion was a generic Birthday card, something suitable for both male and female. This project is a combination of this card and this one. It’s a great idea to combine elements of projects you have
Last week’s Card & Cuppa project was this pretty Birthday card, made using the Perennial Birthday Stamp Set. I used a combination of Rococo Rose, Merry Merlot and Old Olive for this project, along with Very Vanilla. We used the fabulous ‘Pearlized Doilies’ as a background.

At last week’s Card & Cuppa sessions, I designed one of the most difficult cards to make, a sympathy card. I used the Dandelion Wishes Stamp Set and some masking to create this pretty project.
