Playing with Thoughtful Journey DSP Hopefully you have received your new 2024-25 Annual Catalog by now--if not please email me at stampwithdrrobin@gmail.com and let me send you one if you don't have a demonstrator. I am making a card today using the gorgeous 6" by 6" Thoughtful Journey DSP as each page is more beautiful than the last. These pages are stand alone amazing--all they really need is a sentiment added to make a card, but I thought I'd fancy them up today with some other new products. I am loving the In Color Glimmer Paper as well as the Unbounded Love bundle that I used for the sentiment. If you have trouble following along with these directions, please watch my Facebook live below.   Let's make this card. Gather your supplies:  1. Mossy Meadow cardstock --Card base 5 1/2" by 8 1/2" scored on the long side at  4 1/4" and folded along the score line. A second piece 3 3/4" by 2 3/8" 2. Basic White cardstock-- 3 3/4" by 5"

Attention Shoppers!   Attention all you shoppers (and I know you like to shop, at least for new stamping products)! This stamp set from the upcoming 2024-5 Annual Catalog will have you smiling from the time you first see it. I can think of so many people who would enjoy a card using this stamp set and it is so versatile--you can use it for birthdays, thank you cards and so much more. I feel like I've only scratched the surface of this stamp set with this card, so expect more to come from me using it! And notice I used one of the soon to be retiring masks on this card--get them now while they are only $6 before they run out.  If you get lost making this card, or just want some more tips and tricks when using this stamp set, watch my Facebook Live below, then join me every Monday at 1 pm PST at Stamp with Dr Robin and see another card. Let's make this card. Gather your supplies: 1. Basic White Thick cardstock --Card base 5 1/2" by 8 1/2" scored on the long side at  4 1/

  Sneak Peek of the Layers of Beauty Decorative Masks If you watched my Facebook Live or saw my post last week, you saw me use the Layers of Beauty stamp set to make a card that I had also made in all 5 new 2024-6 In Colors. I couldn't stop playing with this set, so now I am making a card using mostly the masks that go with the Layers of Beauty bundle. The beauty of these masks is you can use them alone, as I am doing today, or with the stamp set and any way you use them the cards come out beautiful. For the masks, just pick 3 colors that go together for the flowers and 2 for the leaves and follow the numbers on the mask. Watch my video below to truly understand how the masks are used. I used the Color Wheel on page 132 in the new Annual Catalog to help me choose my colors.  Let's make this card. Gather your supplies:  1. Basic Beige (a new neutral coming 5/1) cardstock --Card base 5 1/2" by 8 1/2" scored on the long side at  4 1/4" and folded along the score lin

Layers of Beauty In Colors I had my first play with the new 2024-5 In Colors and I must say, I am enjoying the bright, happy colors that feel like sherbet colors to me. And aren't we all ready for summer about now? I also for the first time used the new Layers of Beauty bundle that also comes with a set of masks that I haven't used yet (but I am sure I will in a later post). Petunia Pop was the most popular new In Color at our stamping convention, but they are all lovely. If you are a demonstrator, you can start ordering these products on 4/2 and for customers you can start ordering on 5/1. If you don't have a demonstrator you are working with, and you'd like a new Annual Catalog, email me at stampwithdrrobin@gmail.com. These cards were inspired by a post by Patty Bennet--she used the Simply Zinnia set in the In Colors to make some gorgeous cards too. For today I am making the Petunia Pop card, but substitute any color you want to make the card with another In Color. Le
