Day 2 Lots of amazing presentations, sneak peeks of new products from the next catalogue, first product of the month shared. My cheeks are hurting from smiling so much. Can you guess the theme of the event 🤎. #stampinupbackstage #artisanalumni

Day 1 A little jet lag with minimal hours of sleep is worth all the Back Stage Stampin’ Up! Feels… 🤍 my heart is full already. From seeing old friends to meeting new ones, SU merch, A little stamping, snacking and the Artisan Alumni Dinner with friends from across the globe. ⬅️ scroll for some sneak peeks. #STAMPINUPBACKSTAGE #stampinupcanada #stampinup #artisanalumni

There’s something so peaceful about pine branches and snowflakes.

Today’s project features the Color Fusers Color Challenge for November, using Blackberry Bliss, Crumb Cake, and Pretty Peacock — such a rich and elegant combo!

I’ve been creating with @stampinupofficial ‘s Elegant Pine Snowflake Suite Collection, and honestly, it’s pure winter magic. The colors, the textures, the shimmer… it all comes together so gracefully.

This week for my last creative creations as an Art

This week for my last creative creations as an Artisan, I’m featuring a couple of projects using @stampinupofficial ‘s Branching Out Bundle. And, Oh my, it’s quickly become one of my new favorites!

For my first card, I kept it clean and simple — a white base that lets those intricate frame dies shine. They make the branches look so detailed, almost like a little nature scene in a frame.

I also shared a few fun techniques: how to make fake snow on your branches ❄️ and how to spritz soft background color using ink refills and a spritzer for extra depth.

And because I couldn’t stop creating, I made a shaker box with the same bundle! 🎁 The layered branches behind the window look like a snowy forest, just magical.
