Reason: add information
This one is in French, but her work is incredible and inspiring. She does a lot of dimensional work and shaping. Her earlier posts have a lot more how-to detail: https://lezardsdecilou.wordpress.com
Ditto Linda: Pootles was the first blogger whose videos I watched when I started paper crafting/making boxes using the envelope punch board. Still follow her. (I only have a few SU products.)
I like a lot of the ones above, and I have always enjoyed Erica Cerwin's blog. Two blogs I have come to appreciate in the past year are those of Debbie Henderson and Julie Davidson.
I follow so many, most of which have been listed above. I also follow and buy through Angie Juda at chic n scratch. Here is her link: https://mychicnscratch.com/
All these peeps do a great job at inspiring us.

Has anyone found one that mixes home life and card making?
I love Mary Rose's Cafe because she adds in family life, gardening, decorating, coffee shop pictures, farmers markets, stitching, etc. it's just so fun to read!
I've looked for other blogs like this but have never found another!

I pull many ideas by going to "Stampin Up, Artisans." They have complex cards/ideas which I love! More then just one stamp and glue on one piece of paper.
I love Understand Blue! I didn't see her name here. If I see one of her posts in my email, I read it before anything else. Her stamping style is great, and she's also a very entertaining writer.

Oh my gosh! I forgot to list UB! Lydia is so funny! I love her cards and her wit is very entertaining!

Understand Blue (Lydia). Besides being very talented her blog stories are hilarious!
Jan B. Cards is a UK demo I follow. She posts daily, does videos on Weds. & Sun. Her instructions and videos are very detailed. The videos give dimensions in CM & Inches.
Wow, great sites! Cecile Ortiz's circus project just blew me away. How creative and fun!
That is hands down the most creative use of a stamp set I have ever seen in my 15 years as a stamper. I have always loved her projects but this one.....I have no words!!!
Holy Toledo! Or as some of the commenters said, Waouh! Or Waaoouh! (I assume that's "wow" in French.)
Right at the beginning there'a an "ici" (here) link, which takes you to another project. Some elements looks 3Dish - have dimension. I wonder what she used for that.

Allistamps, this totally made my day! I just read this post this morning. Thanks so much for visiting my blog! I used to worry that my blog didn't have a clearly defined theme other than "stuff I love". It's nice to know that my short and shifting attention span (or as my husband calls it, my dabbling) has some appeal! ;)
Bless you, friend! (Still envious of that view from your porch!)

I think something changed with the blog set-up because she used to give very detailed descriptions and links to all the product used, and then at some stage last year she mentioned she would no longer be able to add all the links, that was when she stopped putting in as much step-by-step detail. But that one you are asking about, I'm thinking it's a sort of paper-tole with images stamped several times to cut out the extra pieces, and shaping with a stylus for extra dimension, and then some sort of foam tape or dimensionals.

Thank you. I'll have to look again, but wondered if some type of medium was brushed on top as well.
Too bad about the directions, but at least there's an option to translate to English or other languages.

Michelle Zindorf, Freedom in Creating, blogs about gardening, cooking and raising chickens along with her fabulous card making!

I think people don't realize how many hours go into a blog post - creating the card is the easiest. Photographing, uploading, adding links, if there's a video add 8 hours of editing, voicing over, adding captions, adding all the info. I'm so grateful for people who do all of it, but as a blogger I can say I completely understand the decision not to! Her blog is beyond wonderful.
I forgot to add one of my favorite bloggers: Anna Wigt! I just love her designs, and her posts about life on the farm (and now life in the woods) are always so much fun!
