Adventurous Sky Aviation Masculine Birthday Card

How sweet is this birthday card, with the soft, blue skies!  This simple card design uses the ever-popular Adventurous Sky stamp and die bundle to create both the background scene and the two fabulous planes.

I have shared one of the fun projects we created at the Annual Catalogue Launch Party, which was held a few weeks ago.  The second project was this stunning aviation-themed birthday card featuring the amazing Take to the Sky Suite...

CURRENT CATALOGUES

We all created two fun projects at the recently held Annual Catalogue Launch Party.  One of them was these pretty bookmarks.  It is fun to find new ways to use paper crafting products to create more than just greeting cards!

Today we celebrate Matariki, the Māori name for a cluster of stars that rises in our midwinter and, for many, it heralds the start of the new year.  You may know this cluster as the Pleiades or the Seven Sisters, depending on what part of the world you come from.  This holiday is an opportunity to gather over a meal and reflect on the year that has passed, celebrate the present, and plan for the future. 

That is what we are doing today as my family shares a yummy brunch.  What are you doing to mark this occasion?

Mānawa maiea te putanga o Matariki
Mānawa maiea te Mātahi o te tau

Celebrate the rising of Matariki
Celebrate the rising of the New Year

Hello

about me

I am a stay-at-home mum with three adult children and a wonderfully supportive husband.  My creative timeout is stamping, creating and giving handmade greeting cards.  When I was introduced to Stampin' Up!® over fifteen years ago, I quickly fell in love with their high-quality, coordinating products and loved creating with them.  Soon after, I became an Independent Stampin' Up!® Demonstrator and discovered that I also enjoy sharing my paper crafting knowledge with others and inspiring their stamping creativity.

I would love to hear from you.  Don't hesitate to contact me if you want the latest catalogue, need papercraft supplies (we ship nationwide), wish to attend an upcoming event, or want information about joining my team.

I recently held a launch party event for the new 2024-2025 Annual Catalogue, where we created fun projects, drooled over the fabulous new products, shared inspirational ideas, and played games for prizes!

Here is a last look at the new 2024-2026 In Color collection.  So far I have shared my insights into Petunia PopPeach Pie, Pretty in Pink, and Summer Splash.  There is one more colour in the new In Color Collection found in the 2024-2025 Annual Catalogue...  SHY SHAMROCK.

We continue to look at the new 2024-2026 In Color collection, which was introduced in the 2024-2025 Annual Catalogue.  So far, we have seen Petunia PopPeach Pie, and Pretty in Pink.  Now, let's discuss one more... SUMMER SPLASH.

In May we welcomed the new 2024-2025 Annual Catalogue, which includes five new, on-trend colours to add to the Stampin' Up! colour palette.  I have shared two already: Petunia Pop and Peach Pie.  So, let me share with you my insights into a third 2024-2026 In Color... PRETTY IN PINK.
