Woohoo! Today is blog hop Tuesday with the amazing Tech 4 Stampers Academy group. This month we are each sharing a favorite technique. I can’t wait to see what all my talented friends have shared.

I’m not a very confident designer and often seek sketches or samples for inspiration. I found a fun card by Anne Granger and was inspired to make several variations. Before the live stream I shared the dimensions and supplies needed on social media and suggested my followers join me in creating today. I’m excited to see what everyone creates.

This is a quick and easy design that you can follow with most stamps and designer series papers. In today’s live stream I’m sharing 2 samples featuring products from the Stampin’ Up! July – December 2022 Mini Catalog. To stamp along you’ll need a card base 4.25 x 11, 2 pieces of designer series paper. One pattern is cut 2.5 x 5.5 and another 2.5 x 3.5. Cut a coordinating piece of card stock 1.5 x 4.25. I’m using a die cut circle for my stamped image. You could use a different shape if it suits your image better. Select a stampset and ink and you’ll be ready to stamp.

Last week I stamped this witches hat and legs and waited for inspiration for the rest of the project. The designer series papers are from the Celebrate Everything host DSP and the stampset is from the Bewitching bundle. All the products used in today’s cards are listed below.

The Sweetest Christmas Designer Series Paper offers several options for this layout. I used this paper with the Christmas Scotties in last week’s blog post. You can check it out here.
