Merriest Moments Hybrid Folder

Anniversary & Love-Weddings, Just Because Cards / November 15, 2022 / Merriest Moments Hybrid Embossing Folder

Yesterday I shared with you a video on the Merriest Moments stamp set and Hybrid Embossing Folder featured in the July-December 2022 holiday catalog and today, I am sharing the card I created using just the floral cut out without the detailed embossing.

If you missed yesterday’s Make It Monday tutorial, click here! For all of my Make it Monday video tutorials, visit my YouTube Channel-click here!

This embossing folder is quite versatile. As you can see for today’s card I simply cut out the floral image with Fresh Freesia cardstock and did not emboss the images. I did use the Stampin’ Blending Brush to add a bit of Fresh Freesia ink around the edges for added definition.

The greeting is stamped in Fresh Freesia ink using the Flowers of Friendship stamp set. This card is also featured in the video, so again if you missed that, click here! Happy Stamping!

Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time, be blessed, Renae

Trees for Sale-Favorite Things Friday

Christmas 2022 / November 11, 2022 / Trees for Sale

One of my favorite things about Christmas is the lights on a Christmas tree. We typically decorate our tree with both the big old fashion colored bulbs and tiny white lights. The combination is fun and festive.

Now I did not say I enjoy putting them on the tree, but I love how they look when it is all decorated. I think you will love today’s tree card. I features the Trees for Sale stamp set in the July-December 2022.

My basic card colors are Shaded Spruce and Mint Macaron. While I did add a splash of color with a Daffodil Delight star and some Cherry Cobbler ornaments, I still love the look of the Shaded Spruce with Mint Macaron. I did not get the coordinating dies during Sale-a-bration 2022 so I fussy cut my tree.

Project Measurements

Mint Macaron CS- 5½ x 8½ (card base)
Mint Macaron CS-2-1/2- x 3-1/8
Shaded Spruce CS- 2 x 3, 2¼ x 3¼, ½ x 5½
Basic White CS- 1¾ x 2½, 4 x 5¼
Daffodil Delight CS-star
Trees For Sale
Shaded Spruce Ink
Mint Macaron Ink
Cherry Cobbler Ink
Starlit Punch
Stampin’ Seal Adhesive
Paper Snips

I am not sure what kind they are supposed to be, but I do know the most popular Christmas trees are the Balsam Fir, Douglas Fir, Fraser Fir, Scotch Pine and Colorado Blue Spruce, with the Balsam Fir being the most fragrant.

Celebrate with Tags Snowflakes

2 Comments / Christmas 2022 / November 9, 2022 / Celebrate With Tags Bundle

Have you ever noticed how it’s quieter when it snows? This is just one reason I love going in the hot tub when it snows. Not only is it pretty to watch, everything just seems so still and quiet. Well guess what? It is. It turns out that snow is pretty porous and acts as a sound buffer making the world a quieter place. I think that is so amazing! So next time it snows, take a listen and see how quiet it makes your neighborhood.

Today’s card was created using the snowflake dies in the Celebrate With Tags Bundle. It is a super simple card. Sometimes simple really is the best.

I began with a Basic White card base and added a panel of Night of Navy on the left side. The greeting, stamped with Night of Navy ink, is from the Christmas to Remember stamp set. Just cut a few snowflakes, add a few rhinestone bling and you have a super simple and sweet card for the holidays.

Now all you have to do is create a fun tag to go along with this card. I am sure you will create something great, after all, it is a Celebrating With Tags Bundle. LOL

Merriest Moments ~Poinsettia

2 Comments / Christmas 2022, Paper Crafting Ideas / November 8, 2022

Did you know the poinsettia is typically considered a Christmas flower, and many people give them around Christmas time to symbolize good will and community spirit. In religious communities, the shape of the poinsettia flower is thought to symbolize the Star of Bethlehem, with the red leaves of the poinsettia symbolizing the blood of Christ.

My card today was created using the poinsettia from the Merriest Moments stamp set and the Designer Series Paper, Lights Aglow. The set and dies are returning favorites and featured on page 23 in the July-December holiday catalog.

Project Measurements

Evening Evergreen CS- 5½ x 8½, (card base), 2-7/8 x 3-7/8
Basic White CS- 2¾ x 3¾, 2¼ x 2¼, 4 x 5¼
Lights Aglow DSP-3 ¾ x 5
Merriest Moments Stamp Set
Merriest Moments Dies
Evening Evergreen Ink
Soft Succulent Ink
Cherry Cobbler Ink
Stampin’ Cut n Emboss Machine
Stampin’ Seal Adhesive/Liquid Glue

Poinsettias can cause dogs and cats to get sick, but they are actually not poisonous. Supposedly the leaves are very bitter, so chances are your pet will not like feasting on them.

What Sustains You! ~Sunday Wisdom

Sunday Wisdom / November 6, 2022

Today’s gospel invites us to trust that Jesus will never forsake us. It is an invitation to a deeper belief in the resurrection, which is the foundation of our faith.

What sustains you in times of adversity? When you are facing difficulties in life or with your health, what gives you strength? For me it is prayer and the steadfast trust in the hope of our resurrection.

Jesus calls us to be people of hope. Try not to be discouraged by situations of this world, but rather fix your eyes on Jesus and trust in His divine love. Stay connected to God through prayer, in good times and in bad, and then when death comes it will not be the end of our connection with God.

So today, let us put our hope in God’s promise that He will never abandon us. Allow God’s love and grace to fill us with joy and trust that one day we will be united with our loved ones in heaven.
