8/28/2026 - Color Dare Challenge #718 - Welcome Noel Bundle

How is it possible that we are at the end of August already?! Today at Color Dare, I am using one of the new Christmas Bundle from the September - December 2026 Stampin' Up catalog called Welcome Noel Bundle. There are bunch of houses images and it really caught my eyes. I used 3 of the colors from the palette for houses and the green for grass, obviously. Instead of Christmas card, I made it into a card that's perfect for welcoming someone into the family. I am going to send this card to a new team member that joined recently. I hope you enjoyed this card I am sharing today and be sure to join us at the challenge.

8/21/26 - Alphabet Challenge (I for Insects) - Fern & Floral Card with Butterflies

Summer is coming to an end - I am so sad!! Today at Alphabet Challenge we have I for Insects, and I made a card that has Butterflies on it since I don't really have any other insects stamp sets. This is a quick and easy way if you want to make a different kind of fold - easy flap card. You just take your standard card base and cut at 1 1/4" from both sides to the scoring line and adhere both of side of the panels, leaving the one in the middle to open. Hope you enjoyed this creation and be sure to join us at the challenge. 

DSP - 4 x 4 3/4", cut at 1", 2 3/4", so you have 2 pieces of 1" x 4. 

Challenge: I for Insects 

Stamps: Fern & Floral, 

Colors: Secret Sea, Golden Glow, Crisp Cantaloup Hydranea Hue (stampin' blends)

Papers: White, Fern & Floral DSP, Old Olive, Granny Apple Green,
