I have just returned from travelling in parts of the US for 3 weeks. While it’s good to travel it’s always good to return home don’t you think?
We saw so many road signs while we were driving watching out for deer. I have to say we only saw a small group early on.
I made this card just before I left. All those signs reminded me of this card.
It’s a cute little deer peering out from the forest using the Grassy Grove dies. You don’t need a lot for the background. I added a piece of the Thoughtful Journey Paper behind the diecut.
Have you got the Thoughtful Journey Paper? It’s so pretty.

A Triangle Box would have to be one of the easiest type of boxes to make I think. No gluing. Just cut and score and fold.
Triangle Boxes have been around for some time. I used to make them a lot way back when I first started with Stampin’ Up! – 16 years ago!
I was reminded of them recently so pulled it out to make for a recent class. I wanted to share it with you.
These are using the Green and Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper. Seen Here.
The Green one was decorated with the Golden Greenery Dies and the sentiment from the Greetings of the Season. The Gold one was using the Reindeer Dies available in the upcoming Mini Catalogue.
With this particular Triangle Box you can make it any size you like. The length needs to be double the width. For this one it is 20cm x 10cm (8″x4″).
You can follow along with the Video. Find it on my Youtube if it is not showing here.
You can make a wrapper to keep it closed up – or you can leave it off.
But then you open it…
Here’s the video to follow along with.
The written Tutorial will be sent out in my newsletter next week. Have you subscribed to my newsletter yet? I send out a Free Project Tutorial each week to keep you inspired. You can find the link for that in the right hand column. And there is a bonus Tutorial when you first subscribe.
Happy Crafting,

Sweet Sunday and I just had to share this card with the Tender Hearted Stamp Set. Well it is just sweet …
I remember my little kiddies doing this when they were young. Pretending to be Dr’s attending to their toys. It brings back such precious memories. I just had to share it.
This card was created by Stampin’ Up! Artists.
I love how they have used the strips of Designer Series Paper on the card too. This is a great way of using your little scrap pieces. Perhaps you can use that idea on a card you make soon.
The Tender Hearted Stamp Set has some cute images in the whole set. It’s not just for the young kids. What a lovely one to use on cards for friends.
It is now available in my store (Australian residents). You can order this now -> HERE. Please use the Host Code: R4QU9DB3
I love Fun Folds. I have a cool Fun Fold card for you today AND a video to help you create it.
It’s a Front Panel Gatefold Card.
You have the Front of the card. Just like any regular looking card really. I have used the Stippled Roses Stamp Set for this one.
But lift the front and you have a Gatefold. It gives a little extra WOW! to the card. For this one I have used the Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper on the side panels.
Then open the 2 flaps and you have the inside. With a little stamping and a strip of the paper it adds to the specialness.
What do you think?
You can follow along with the Video to make your own.
The measurements are included in the video. Stop or pause or rewind. If you prefer the written version I’m sending that out in my newsletter next week.

Last week I had my Summer Craftastic event. Lots of fun and crafting and chatting.
I will share the projects we made in another post but today I thought I would show you the cute Mini Tag I made for all the guests to go on their gifts they received for coming.
These were so quick and simple to make – especially when I was on a time crunch!
I used the Softly Sophisticated stamp set. I love how the flowers and leaves are separate so you can stamp the flowers in different colours without trying to colour the stamps.
The white tag was cut with one of the smaller sized Perennial Postage Dies. I punched a hole in the top of them and tied through some of the Natural Wavy Trim and tied off with Linen Thread.
Don’t miss the sweet little birds. They are from the Dragonflies and Birds Embellishments available only online. Often they get missed being an Online Exclusive. They add an elegant touch to your projects.
The Softly Sophisticated stamp set is a Sale-A-Bration choice as a Bundle with the Softly Sophisticated Embossing Folder. They are a great addition to your crafting supplies. I think they are so versatile – and lovely.
The Bundle can be chosen with orders over $180 AUD.
But it’s only around for just over 1 week. How time does fly! So I don’t want you missing out if you would like them.
If you are in Australia and “need” these or any other supplies I would love to serve you.
