A Closer Look

The ornament of this first card was cut using our Gold Foil sheets and the greeting is heat embossed with some Basic White Embossing powder. I love how it makes the greeting pop and is so festive for the season.

The first two cards were created using the snowflake sky embossing folder and the first layer. The first card was with Night of Navy and the second with Petal Pink cardstock. I love the totally different look. I like them both.

My last card was created with a Highland Heather card base. For the die cut element I first created a watercolor background and mounted it on a piece of Very Vanilla. Click here for watercolor background video. I added a bit of Highland Heather ink around the edges and stamped my image in Gorgeous Grape. Feel free to add the bling/embellishment of your choice. Happy Stamping!

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

Night Divine Stars – Favorite Things Friday

Christmas 2023, Favorite Things Friday /

The days are definitely getting shorter and one of the most wonderful things about a clear cold winter’s night is the beauty of all the stars. The O Holy Night Designer Series Paper pack pairs perfectly with the Night Divine stamp set to create a starry night card just in time for the holidays!

I began with a Basic White card base and let the designer series paper do all the work. I added a layer of the starry paper to the card front and stamped the greeting from Night Divine with Night of Navy ink on a 2-1/4 x 2-1/4 piece of Basic White cardstock. I added the greeting to a 2-3/8 x 2-3/8 panel of Night of Navy CS and attached it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The Beauty of Autumn!

Fall-Halloween-Thanksgiving Cards /

Wow, it is so hard to believe that tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I am blessed to be able to spend some quality time with my daughter. Seems like only yesterday that she was still in high school and now she is living on her own in Chicago, so I cherish all her visits.

For today’s card I created a strip of designer series paper using the leaves from the Autumn Leaves bundle. I used the larger leaf and stamped in Old Olive and Cajun Craze ink. I stamped the smaller leaves with Cajun Craze ink and used the coordinating dies to crop and attach them to the greeting.

The greeting is stamped with Early Espresso ink and cropped with the frame from the Autumn Leaves Bundle. The dots from the Layering Leaves stamp set and are stamped with Cajun Craze ink. I attached the leaves and the greeting to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I hope this card puts a smile on your face and that your Thanksgiving is filled with lots of turkey, laughter, and the love of family. Happy Stamping!

God Trusts You!

Sunday Wisdom /

God trusts you more than you will ever know and today’s gospel reading reminds us that everything we own and everything we are belongs to God. God has given us all many and very different gifts. It is up to us to use those gifts to honor and glorify God. Our parable today reminds us that God is always in control and while he is not physically on earth with us today as he was with his apostles, if we allow him, He will walk each step of our journey with us.

Don’t waste your gifts and don’t waste precious time. Invite God into your life! We all have different gifts, one is not more important than the other, but what is important is to use your gifts to better the Kingdom of God on earth so we will be prepared to spend eternity in the Kingdom of Heaven.
