#72 Weekly Wed 12 Days of Christmas Day#6

And of course, today is day # 6 and on the 6th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me Six Matte Guitar Picks, Five Cheeseburgers, Four Hawaiian Ukes, Three Finn Hats, Two Tatoos, and a Purple Parrot in a palm tree! Did you know that Jimmy Buffet was not only a great musician, but he was also New York Times best-selling author . He wrote three number-one books: Tales From Margaritaville, Where Is Joe Merchant?, and his memoir A Pirate Looks at Fifty. Only a handful of authors, including Hemingway and Dr. Seuss, have topped both fiction and non-fiction lists like Buffett.
Happy Stamping!

Until next time, be blessed, Renae

We are finishing out this week with two more cards using the Snowy Delights Decorative Masks. If you wanted Day #3 then you already know how easy these masks are to use. If you missed that episode, no worries, click here. And now for day #4……

In addition to the Snowy Delights Decorative masks, this weeks cards also feature the Branching Out dies. I am not sure why I want to call them the in and out dies, but that is just stuck in my head, so I apologize if I call them the wrong thing in my videos. I also used greetings from Gathering Moments and Ornamental Christmas. All of these products are available for purchase through my online store, just click the shop with me button below. I so appreciate your support. Don’t forget to click the button below for your free project sheet with photos, supplies, measurements, and instructions on how to create these cards.

Christmas 2025, Make it Monday Videos /

Welcome back to my 12 Days of Christmas series. This week I am featuring the Snowy Delights Decorative Masks. Today is, day 3 of our series, click here if you missed day 2 featuring A Child Is Born. You can also access all of my videos on my YouTube channel. Click here to go to my channel. If you have not used any of Stampin’ Up!’s decorative masks, you are going to love them. These are so super easy to stack and create amazing snowflake images.

Let’s take a closer look at today’s projects!

The first card was created using Balmy Blue and Night of Navy cardstock and ink. All you need for these gorgeous masks are a blending brush, some ink, and a little painters tape or some green tape to keep your cardstock and masks from shifting. See the video for more details.

DIY Designer Series Paper ~ Weekly Wed. #69

Designer Series Paper, Fall-Halloween-Thanksgiving Cards, Weekly Wednesday Videos /

Hello my friends. I am so excited to share with you a way to create your own Designer Series Paper using the new Gathering Moments stamp set. First of all the paper that coordinates with this bundle is absolutely gorgeous, but I thought making our own can be fun too. When you create your own designer series paper, don’t be afraid to experiment with a variety of colors. Try creating a sheet with all one color. That would be fun too. Monochromatic is such a calming look.

Today’s project: DIY Designer Series Paper

I started with a Basis White 8 1/2 x 11 piece of cardstock and randomly stamped the images from the Gathering Moments bundle as shown. The large leaf I stamped in Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie. The smaller leaf is stamped with Garden Green. The berries are stamped with Cherry Cobbler and the acorn with Pecan Pie. I used Early Espresso to stamp the smaller veined leaf. Feel free to adds some splatter with Pecan Pie or Early Espresso ink. The You’re Remarkable and the Elements of Text are just a few of the sets that have some great splatter.

Today’s card features our Garden Green and Cherry Cobbler cardstock. The card base is a standard A2 size and measures 8-1/2 x 5 -1/2, scored at 4-1/4. I cut a piece of the newly created designer series paper to measures 3-3/4 x 5 and backed it with a 3-7/8 x 5-1/8 piece of Cherry Cobbler. The greeting is from Grateful Blessings. See video for tip on how to shorten the greeting. I stamped the sentiment with Early Espresso ink and cropped it with the Heartfelt Hexagon punch. I used that same punch to crop a Cherry Cobber hexagon and cut in half lengthwise to create a top and bottom border. Before adding the greeting to the card front, I put a strip of Cherry Cobbler 3/8 x 3-7/8 across the bottom of the card. Feel free to use Stampin’ Dimensionals to attach the greeting to your card front.

I hope you enjoyed today’s fall project. Join me on Monday for a new holiday series 12 Days of Christmas! Happy Stamping!

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