You Are Beautiful!

Just Because Cards, Thinking of You /

Sorry I missed a few posts I was out of town for a funeral. Well I am back now and excited to share with you a new stamp set from the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog, You Are Beautiful! This set is featured on page 93 and has a variety of encouraging greetings.

I find these greeting so uplifting and I am sure you will be seeing a lot of these is the very near future. But for now, here is the card I created using the leaf from this set, Lemon Lime Twist ink, Garden Green ink, Garden Green, and Basic White cardstock.

The white layer on top of my Garden Green card base measures 4 x 5-1/4 and the second white base is 3-1/2 x 4-3/4. The greeting is stamped with Garden Green ink on a white 3/4 x 2-1/2 panel attached to a 1 x 2-5/8 piece of Garden Green cardstock. I hope the greetings in this set will inspire you to create something beautiful to share with others. Happy Stamping!

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

Retired Sets-Favorite Things Friday

Favorite Things Friday, Thank You, Thinking of You /

Hello my stamping friends I hope you are all planning to have a relaxing holiday weekend. Today I am stamping with my nursing home friends at Mother of Good Council and thought I would share my cards with you. I am using some oldie but goodies today and yes, they are all retired, but you can still create beautiful cards with whatever stamp sets you have in your stash.

My first card was created using the butterflies from last month’s Paper Pumpkin Kit. I used the retired Wisteria Wonder cardstock and ink to stamp a tone on tone look.

For my second card I used the retired Nature’s Prints and Happy Thoughts stamp sets. I used a current ink, Berry Burst and a retired ink, Pistachio Pudding. Remember that color?

For my last card I used the Field of Flowers stamp set, Shaded Spruce (current), Lovely Lipstick (retired) and Memento Black (current) inks. I think they are going to like this one because of the bright colors. It will be fun to see how many come to the class today!

FYI-There will not be a Make It Monday video this week. No, the holiday weekend is not making me lazy, although that would be nice. Many of you know that my mom passed away 2 years ago in June and unfortunately on Sunday, my Aunt (mom’s sister) passed away so I will be busy gathering with family for the funeral and burial. I appreciate your understanding and will be back with another Make It Monday in June. You can also join me on Wednesdays for a Weekly Wednesday video to make a card together.

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