Simple Sunday with Well Said

Welcome Card Tutorial

Blueberry Bushel is a bold blue that I could use for so many things.  But all the Stampin' Up! supplies that coordinate make it easy for this color to stand on it's own too.  Today's tutorial is close to #simplestamping, but uses the coordinating 1/8" Grosgrain Ribbon to add some dimension and fun.  Blueberry Bushel is just one of 5 In-Colors in the pack of Designer Series Paper too, and there are 5 more In-Colors that are available until the end of May too.  I love the blue, but this could be done in so many other colors as well.  What color would you choose?

Time For Something....Different

I love crafting and making music, but I've also taken to a fairly new community that is on YouTube called ASMR, or Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response.  I'm sure my fascination comes from the fact that I'm a musician, but I decided to try making my own video for the wider community to enjoy.  It's a combination of a card tutorial with extra sounds to relax the viewer.  Some people love it and some hate it or don't understand it.  Either way, my video is of today's card, so I thought I would share.  You can find out a bit more about ASMR here:

Product of the Week: Beauty Abounds Bundle

The Beauty Abounds Bundle certainly plays to the Monarch's beautiful wing design in the framelits dies.  There are also a couple small stamps of butterflies in the stamp set, but I love the fact that there are matching floral images and great background textures in the stamp set.  There are sooooo many cute little butterflies in the framelits!  There are 10 of the same, tiniest butterflies so you can cut out many of them at the same time.  There are also duplicates of several other butterflies in the framelits set, as well as three butterfly dies that can be layered together or used separately.
