Welcome to PaperBirchDesigns

Hello all, and welcome to PaperBirch Designs by me, Archie Andrews. I'm a craft addict and I rationalize my craft purchases for the greater good, which is helping others in their crafting needs. I love decor and party planning crafts and date night crafts. I got started crafting or more specifically stampin when I was getting married. Why pay someone else to make the wedding crafts when I could do it cheaper and customize it based on my need. Well it started there.....the obsession. Now my netflix and chill nights include crafting, while my husband rolls his eyes that I can't just sit and enjoy the tv. I hope you like what I post on this blog. Please reach out to me if you'd like to see anything different!

Happy Crafting Time to you!

Bugs and Kisses Birthday Party theme!

Today, I went to a fun birthday party of a 7 year old boy who loves bugs. He's a very sweet kid and I wanted to help make his birthday special. So, I made him bug themed party decor. I made little favor bags using the Bag punch board filled them with plastic bugs ( yes, I'm not even coming close to touching a real one. I had my husband make sure there weren't even fake lizards in there). I also added hershey kisses in the bag mixed in. I made him a bug themed birthday banner and a cake topper as well.

Once the bag was punched out using bag punch, I used the Bugs and Beetles retired stampset, which I borrowed from my sweet upline, Holly Stene. (Holly, thanks a lot for letting me borrow this stampset). Then I used the different color combos to make the bugs pop right out of the bag. There were some fun gummy worms an...

Organized Card Giver Goal

You quickly try to scan the mail you got…and it’s mostly bills, advertisements, random credit card approval applications. Because…that’s ever worked!! You sigh, because its normal, routine and boring!! Then you realize you see a teeny tiny envelope, with a handwritten label. Not the fake cursive kind that some organization uses to ask for money, but the real kind! You open it, and it’s a greeting card. Handwritten greeting card that says Happy Birthday or Just thinking of you, and it put a huge smile to your face. I love that feeling, and guess what? I want all my loved ones to feel that feeling. Even better, I want to be the one to put that smile on their faces. I never truly understood the importance of getting cards in the mail until my husband Ray went to the hospital. He had surgery and was in the hospital recovering for almost 2 m...
