Three Cards to Serve Others!

This Friday is my monthly card class for the residents at Mother of Good Counsel Home. I am always amazed at the joy and excitement they bring to class. I always try to create clean and simple stamping for them as they many of them have a hard time seeing. Sometimes I use current supplies and sometimes retired products. This month I am using a combination of both.

Hope and Prayer -currently available

My first card was created using Basic White and Pacific Point cardstock. While the Pacific Point is no longer available, you can always substitute Starry Sky.

Translucent Florals-coming in September

My second card was created using Basic White and Marina Mist cardstock. Again the Marina Mist is retired, but Balmy Blue or the new Boho Blossom would be a good substitute. I cropped the Basic White panel using the Deckled Rectangle Dies. I seriously love these dies. The Translucent Florals Bundle is coming in the Holiday mini catalog this September.

Countryside Corners -currently available

My last card was created using the Countryside Corners stamp set and some of the Countryside Inn Designer Series paper. I cut the designer series paper with one of the Countryside corner dies and then cut a larger one with some Starry Sky cardstock. The greeting is stamped with Starry Sky ink and is from Artistically Inked, which is available in the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.

I hope you will enjoy creating with some of these sets and find a way to share your stamping talents with others!

Think Out of the Box!

Today I am sharing an out of the box way to create a card using the upcoming Translucent Florals Bundle. Yesterday I shared four cards using this bundle in my Make It Monday series. CLICK HERE if you missed that post. On the video, I mentioned turning my boo boo into a creative opportunity. And so here it is……..

This was a super simple card created with White and Cherry Cobbler cardstock , Cherry Cobbler ink, Timeless Arrangements stamp set and of course the Translucent Florals Bundle. Remember, this bundle will be available in the new Holiday mini coming September 1st. Until then, happy stamping!

Sneak Peek Bundle-Make It Monday #115

Today I am excited to share with you a sneak peek into a new bundle that will be coming out in the next mini catalog this September. Translucent Bundles. As as demonstrator I attended a Creativity Now Virtual Stampin Event with many of my fellow stamping demonstrators. I am sharing with you the cards I created. The first card was created by Rosie, a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator from Australia. The event was a lot of fun.

We also got a sneak peek into a new Christmas set, One Horse Open Sleigh, that will be coming July 6 ! Be sure to check that out so you don’t miss getting a head start on your Christmas card making projects.

And now today’s Translucent Florals Bundle Video

Earthen Textures-Favorite Things Friday!

One of my favorite things is stamping with friends and today, I am not only stamping with a very dear friend, but I am also borrowing her stamp set for my blog post! What could be better than that? Thanks Cherie!

At first I have to admit this bundle seemed a bit much for me, but after creating a few cards with it, it is growing on me. LOL Unfortunately the bundle is currently unavailable as the dies are on backorder. The stamp set is still available and as soon as the bundle is back in stock I will feature more cards for one of my Make it Monday tutorials, so stay tuned for that. But for today, I began my card creation a Boho Blossom card base. Boho Blossom is just one of 5 new In-Colors. Click here to check out the other colors.

#blessedbycards

Next I added a layer of Cajun Craze. I stamped the pots with Cajun Craze and Boho inks on a 3-3/4 x 5 piece of Basic White cardstock and in order to make them look layered, I stamped the small pot first and then masked it before stamping the taller pot. I then stamped the ferns with Old Olive and the flowers, in Boho Blossom. The thank you is from the bundle and stamped in Boho Blossom on a 3/8 x 2-3/8 panel of white. Just add a little bling and your card is complete.

I hope you have a fabulous Friday. Happy Stamping!

Seaside Bay-You’re In My Thoughts!

If you are a bird person then you are going to love today’s card. If not, maybe you are seaside bay person, either way today’s card is a fun summertime card. My card base begins with Balmy Blue and then I added a layer of Night of Navy. I created my beach scene for Mama bird and her babies on a 3-3/4 x 5 panel of white.

To create my beach scene I used our Blending Brushes and a variety of inks. For the water, I used Balmy Blue and Azure Afternoon. I added some white waves using a blender pen and some White Craft ink. The sand was blended with our new color Pecan Pie. The sky was again a mixture of Balmy Blue and Azure Afternoon.

I colored the bird family with a mixture of Stampin’ Blend markers and some watercolor pencils. I stamped the detailed sand dots using the Pecan Pie ink. The greeting is from the new stamp set Seasonal Branches. We have such a great spread of coordinating colors that makes creating fun scene super easy. Go ahead and give it a try, you might be surprised at how easy it is. Happy Stamping!

Until next time, be blessed, Renae

Playing In the Rain-Rainy Days!

Rainy days are always better when shared with a friend or at least a good book. Remember the old saying Rain rain go away come again another day? I think that must have been when I was younger and wanted to go swimming. Now, here in St. Louis we could use a little rain.

This cute little fox from the Playing in the Rain stamp set looks like he is well on his way to a friends house. I think the tiny raindrop stamp really creates a nice effect for this card.

For my card base I used the new In-color Boho Blossom and layered a panel of black on top. My Basic White panel measures 3-3/4 x 5 and I added some Boho Blossom ink to the edges of my greeting panel with a Blending Brush. The umbrella is colored with the Night of Navy Stampin’ Blend and Mr. Fox is colored with some of our watercolor pencils and a blender pen.

So if your day is filled with cloudy skies and raindrops, I hope it is also filled with joy. Let’s be like Mr. Fox, he doesn’t seem like he has any worries at all.
