Please let me hear from you!

This blog is for sharing a love of paper crafting. I love paper crafting -
and Stampin' Up! products in particular -
so much so, that I became an independent Stampin' Up!®™ demonstrator earlier this year!
Full disclosure: I get a small commission on purchases made using Stampin' Up! links from this website - but this in no way affects your price. It just serves to help support my blogs. Thank you in advance for that support!

As of January 21, 2026, most of my Stampin' Up! makes are moving to
https://cheringloveofpaper.blogspot.com/, with makes from other materials here.
Enjoy browsing my blogs, and I'd love to hear from you.
It is what helps make the time I put into these blogs feel worthwhile, and always brightens my day.

Pergamano Thank You


This is another card that was made for a NCD Challenge on the Paper Wishes Message Board.  The challenge was to use some older techniques (embossing without an embossing folder, for example).  

Here's what I did:

1) Embossed the design on a square piece of parchment using a stylus - then colored parts of it with a marker.
2) Cut a white frame for it using a craft knife (this is where I REALLY missed using dies!!!)
3) Cut a hole in the card front to match the frame - then using a stylus and score board, I embossed the front of the card with diagonal lines.
4) Glued the frame to the finished parchment & then glued in place over the hole on the card front.
5) Added a pergamano butterfly - hand embossed & cut out with scissors.
6) Added a sentiment.  For some reason they let us use cutting dies for the sentiment.  That made it much easier! :)
