Name The Card Series Contest

Hello Friends!

Today I have something different for you. My husband, Bill, is my biggest supporter! He's got my back, no matter what. He encourages me to create and share my projects. He's Mr. Wonderful in my book! *smile*

Bill would like to start doing a weekly series on my YouTube channel where he creates a card featuring a different stamp set each week.

We're at a loss as to what we should name this new card making series. That's where you come in. *wink*

Please watch the video below for all the details. Please go to YouTube to leave a comment. Comments left on my blog won't count, sorry. We're trying to make this as easy as possible for everyone involved so there's no confusion as to who entered and who didn't. I hope you understand.

Open to everyone, including international viewers!

Thank you SO much for your support! We love ya! Good luck! - Pat & Bill

Expecting Mommy Card

Hello Crafty Friends!

A couple of days ago, I did a video on a baby/expecting mommy card I made. I made it for a dear friend that just found out she's pregnant after undergoing fertility treatments. I'm so happy and excited for her and her boyfriend! They've been trying for years to conceive!

Here's that video: 

I didn't show the inside of the card, so, I'd like to share it here with you all.

For this card, I used a mix of Stampin' Up! products and other companies' products. I like to do that sometimes. I have a HUGE stash of non-Stampin' Up! products that I'm trying to use up when I can. I may be doing a "destash" sale of some of the supplies I have sometime soon. Just keep an eye on my YouTube channel if you're interested.

Wow! I sure strayed off topic on that one! Kind of LOL

Anyway, here's the card, both front and inside...

Sorry for the poor photography. I'm working on a solution to that. Hopefully soon, I'll have better quality. Until then, thank you for hanging in there with me. I appreciate you taking the time to read my blog posts.

Have a wonderful day filled with all the things you love! - Pat

Triple Time Stamping

Hi there Crafty Friends!

I learned this technique called Triple Time Stamping from another Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. I think maybe it should be called "Pat Makes Triple Time Mistakes"!
I had some issues with my stamping and centering my layers, but it's all good. If I wanted a "perfect" card, I would buy a manufactured one. No thanks! I love handmade cards with all of their "imperfections".
After all, there are no mistakes in crafting. There's just more opportunities to embellish! Right?
Please watch the video below to learn how to make these amazing cards. I would appreciate it if you would leave a comment below this post to let me know what you think of this fun technique. Thanks!
