Creating a Backgammon Board with Game On from Stampin' Up! for #MyStampingFriends

Hey there My Stamping Friends,

I originally got the Game On stamp set from Stampin' Up! to make some fun invitations for a Bunko game and some table decorations for my husbands poker game but Covid-19 is still around and we won't be doing either of those for a while. Well, you know I like thinking outside of the box, and finding 'other' ways to use a stamp set so I came up with this Backgammon game (and a few other ideas that I'll post separately).

Check out my video right here, on how to create this card.

Create a Pilgrim with the Gnome For The Holidays stamp set from Stampin' Up! for #MyStampingFriends

Hey there My Stamping Friends, I've got something so exciting to share with you. You all know how I like to stretch my stamp sets and try and get some unexpected things from them and this post is all about that! I got the amazing Gnome for the Holidays stamp set from Stampin' Up! which has a few Christmas holiday themed Gnomes and some holiday sentiments. Well, I've had it for a little while and was wondering what else I could do with it when I realized that I didn't have any cute Thanksgiving stamps this year yet so I had to give this a try. Enjoy my Pilgrim card!

Here is the video on how I made it.
