Welcome to this month’s Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring the theme Happy Birthday. I am excited to share another project with you today. Fellow Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe are participating, so we have lots of fun projects to share with you. I hope you get loads of creative inspiration from them. You may have started here, or arrived from the talented Tracy Held’s blog. Wasn’t her project amazing? Either way, you’re in the right place!
I chose to use the Cute As A Bug DSP from the January – April 2026 mini Catalogue. Unfortunately, it has not carried over to the May – August 2026 Catalogue. A shame, because it is SOOOOO cute!
Card: – Peach Pie (retiring), Cajun Craze, Basic White, Gold Foil, Cute As A Bug DSP (retiring).
Tools: – Sweet Bugs Dies*
I hope you are inspired by my card. I’d love to know what you think. I had fun creating it. Make sure you hop all the way around and see the inspiration that everyone has shared, and don’t forget to leave a comment. We all love to get comments on our projects.
Thanks for hopping by, Bye for now
Till next time

Welcome to this month’s Blog Hop by Let’s Craft Together and thank you for joining us. We are a group of multi-cultural Stampin’ Up!® demonstrators in Australia who have developed a strong friendship though our love of stamping and our admiration of each other’s style of crafting.
Each month one of us sets a challenge that we use for the blog hop. This month’s challenge is Distressing Techniques, which was created by Monique Fielder and is shown below:
I decided to use the Gallery Blooms Bundle. I distressed the edges of the card using the outside edge of my paper snips, also folding down corners of card, and used a sponge dauber to apply Basic White or Crumb Cake ink to the distressed edges and damask impressions.
Supplies
Stamps: – Simply Said Stamp Set, Gallery Blooms Stamp Set*
*available as a bundle with savings of 10% until 6 May (or while stocks last).
I hope you are inspired by my card. I’d love to know what you think. Make sure you hop all the way around and see the inspiration that everyone has shared, and don’t forget to leave a comment. We all love to get comments on our projects.
