Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
Hello! Today, I am sharing a spring-themed card featuring Paper Smooches stamps and dies (one of the first companies whose products I bought when I started cardmaking). It’s not yet spring here in the PNW but that doesn’t mean I’m not looking ahead with hope.
The items I used on my card I have had for several years.
Supplies: Paper Smooches Flap Happy (butterflies), Butterflies 1, 2, 3 Dies, Lovely Thoughts (sentiment), Bazzill Sour Lemon cardstock, Lawn Large Stitched Rectangles
Hello from the snowy Pacific Northwest! We have had more snow in the past few days than we typically have all winter. We are breaking snow records for February. Today I am sharing a CAS Valentine featuring the Paper Smooches Bees Dies and a punny sentiment.
Hello from the snowy Pacific Northwest! We received almost a foot of snow overnight. Today I am sharing a CAS Valentine created with the Marianne Design Eline’s Penguin and Igloo & Mountain sets (I purchased the sets from 123 Stitch).
I paired the assembled penguins and igloo with a sentiment that I created on my computer and cut with a snow slope die.
Patterned paper from my stash filled in the background.
Hope your week is off to a terrific start!
Hello! We have had wild windstorms here in the Pacific Northwest, including one that knocked out power for the day. With gray skies overhead, I created a CAS colorful friendship card.
I combined the Folk Dance die with a sentiment in the Choose Joy set. I created a panel that I adhered to the back of the die-cut card front from a rainbow of Distress Ink Oxide colors.
Hope your day is filled with sunshine (literally and/or metaphorically)!

Hello! Today, I am sharing a CAS Valentine’s Day card created with a combination of die cuts. I have officially moved on from Christmas crafting.
The card spotlights the Elizabeth Craft Designs Birds die set; I dressed the birds for cold weather (one of the things I like about crafting Valentine’s Day cards is an opportunity to extend winter-themed supplies). I used Simon Says Stamps dies for the heart background and the sentiment and framed the scene with a now-retired My Favorite Things die. The base is dry-embossed with a We R Memory Keepers embossing folder.
Happy New Year!
Supplies: Simon Says Stamp On Edge Love You die set, We R Memory Keepers Wood Grain embossing folder
