Fun Fact Friday!

Christmas 2024, Fun Fact Friday /

Fun Fact: Years ago I was a second grade teacher and today I am going back into the classroom to sub for my niece, Shelby. She is on an ACTS Retreat this weekend. If you have been on an ACTS Retreat, please pray for her as she mentors others closer to Christ. I guess this was not really a fun fact, more of a personal fun fact, but hey at least it is Friday.

Since I am going to be with little people today, I thought my deer card looks like a mom and dad deer watching out for their young one. Yes, that might be a stretch, but it’s possible. I have two cards, the first is a very clean and simple and the second is the same cards, stepped up with some sponging, bling, and a die cut greeting.

I used a Pool Party card base and added a layer of Pecan Pie. The deer are stamped with Pecan Pie and this card came together very quickly, like I said, very clean and simple. This set is Graceful Deer and is in the annual catalog and online.

My second card has the same layering and stamping, with a bit more to step it up! I added some Pool Party sponging for the sky and some Pecan Pie sponging for the ground. I colored the two little birdies with a Real Red blend and added a simple greeting and die from Unbounded Love.

I hope you enjoyed today’s cards. They are perfect for those men in your life who love to hunt! So whether you choose to go simple or step it up, happy stamping!

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

Fun Fold Nail File Holder~Weekly Wed. #37

Christmas 2024, Designer Series Paper, Fun Fold Cards, Paper Crafting Ideas, Weekly Wednesday Videos /

Happy Wednesday all. Today I am excited to share with you a fun fold using one piece of 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper and three scores. We are creating a nail file holder that is perfect for a stocking stuffer or a small gift for co-workers. I am planning to sell them at a craft fair this month, so I will be making a few more. They are super fast and easy. Check out the video below.

If you cannot view the video, click here or the photo below. You can also visit my YouTube Channel for all my Make It Monday and Weekly Wednesday videos.

Project Supplies

  • 3 x 6 piece of designer series paper
  • Bone Folder
  • Liquid Glue or Tear and Tape
  • Greetings of the Season Stamp Set
  • Dies from Unbounded Love
  • Scrap of Basic White and Cherry Cobbler for tag
  • Gold pearl bling
  • Cherry Cobbler Ink

This project is super simple, just score at 7/8″ on each side of 3 x 6 DSP, and at 1/4 on the bottom. If you have directional paper be sure it is facing the correct way before making your bottom score. See video for details on angle top folds.

I love that you can get two holders out of one sheet of 6 x 6 DSP. Have fun dressing up these folders with some fun Christmas tags and bling. Let me know if the comments if this is a project you will be making. Happy Stamping!

Free Stamp~Fun Fact Friday!

Designer Series Paper, Happy Birthday /

Sorry my title might be a little misleading, no Stampin’ Up! is not giving away a free stamp, I wish. The “Free Stamp” is actually a sculpture in Cleveland, Ohio that weighs about 35 tons and is considered the largest stamp in the world. Try taking that one to your next crop or stamping event. LOL

Oldenburg is on record as saying that “free,” references the emancipation of American slaves during and after the Civil War—a plausible explanation given the piece’s planned proximity to the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument. Who knew? If you are ever in Cleveland, Ohio, it might be a good place to visit.

Today’s card was created using the Wildly Wheat designer series paper and the Unbounded Love Bundle. If you have not had a chance to check out this bundle, it is amazing.

I started with a Blackberry Bliss card base and added a 4 x 5 1/4 layer of Wildly Wheat DSP to the card front. I then added a 1 x 4′ strip of Boho Blossom to the card front. On both sides of the Boho Blossom I attached a 1/4 x 4″ strip of Blackberry Bliss cardstock. The greeting is from Unbounded Love and stamped with Blackberry Bliss ink. I also used the dies from this bundle to crop the greeting and the accent piece. Add a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and decorate as desired.

I cannot believe that it is already November. Time to start brewing up some holiday crafting ideas. Stop back next week for some holiday crafting inspiration. Happy Stamping!
