Happy Monday everyone. I hope you had a great weekend. We continue to pray for my 23 year old niece who is battling stage 4 brain cancer. She is a fighter and we are begging God for a full and complete healing miracle.
Today, I needed a little sunshine, so I created a few cards using the Lily Pond Lane DSP and the Charming Duck Pond Dies. If you have not checked out these adorable ducklings, now is the time.

Happy Wednesday all. I hope you are having a blessed week. Today we are playing with an online exclusive set, Elements of Text. This is a great set to add a muted background to many of our current stamp sets. I am using Spotlight on Nature for todays card, but I can also see using it with Beautiful Butterflies, Textured Notes, Sketched Butterflies, and Thoughtful Wishes, just to name a few. LOL
Start with a colored card base of your choice. I used Pretty in Pink and Misty Moonlight for today’s cards. Add a coordinating layer of cardstock 4 x 5-1/4 to the card front. I chose Basic Black for my pink card and Crumb Cake for the Misty Moonlight version. You will need a layer of white for stamping that measures 3-3/4 x 5. I used Pretty In Pink and Crumb Cake ink for my cards today-see video for details. The greeting is from Simply Said, and yes, it is one of my favorite greetings sets in the 2024-2025 annual catalog.
As always you can add 4 x 5-1/4 piece of Basic White to the inside and decorate as desired. Since the Pretty in Pink cardstock is light, I am not going to add a white panel to that one, but again that is totally your choice. There are no mistakes in stamping, only creative opportunities. Go ahead, think outside the box and add some bling. Everyone’s taste is different and that is what makes stamping with friends so much fun! Happy Stamping!

Hello friends and Happy Monday. We continue to pray for my niece Hayley who is still in ICU, unresponsive. A few weeks ago she had a brain biopsy and was diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer. She now has a brain bleed and they are concerned about excess fluid in her lungs. We are praying for a complete healing miracle through Sr. Clare Crockett, All or Nothing. If you feel called, please join me in praying for this gentle soul, this beautiful angel.
I hope you enjoyed today’s tutorial. This is such a fun stamp set with coordinating dies. There are so many more dies than stamps, so do check it out. After all crafting, regardless of what kind, is totally therapeutic. So in the name of relaxation and enjoyment, be sure to order your set today. Happy Stamping!

Happy Friday! It’s hard to believe another week has gone by, but at least it is Spring! We continue to lift my niece Hayley, my brother Scott, and his wife Carissa up in prayer. Hayley is still in ICU but showing tiny signs of improvement, Praise God. If it is the Father’s will we ask for a complete and total healing through Sr. Clare Crockett, All or Nothing Lord. Jesus we Trust in You!
Today’s five minute card was created using some of the DSP from the Timeless Plaid paper pack. This is a great masculine birthday card for that special man in your life.
I started with a Cajun Craze card base and added a layer of the Timeless Plaid DSP. I then added a strip of Cajun Craze across the center of the card front. The greeting is from With You in Mind and is stamped with Cajun Craze ink. It is mounted on a 2-1/2 x3 1/2 piece of Cajun Craze cardstock. I attached the greeting to my card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I hope you enjoy this masculine birthday card. Happy Stamping!

Happy Friday! It is time again for another Five Minute Friday. Today I am sharing with you a super simple card I created using the Natural Botanicals stamp set. I used my paper snips to fussy cut the flowers before adding them to my Basic White panel.
If you are not a fussy cutting fan, you can always stamp the flower images directly to one of the 4 x 5-1/4 Basic White panels. Either way this card will only take you five minutes to create.
I started with a Daffodil Delight card base. I cut two 4 x 5-1/4 Basic White panels, one for the card front and one for the inside. I stamped the flowers with Early Espresso along the edge of a 2 x 4″piece of Basic White cardstock. Since this is a reversible stamp, I stamped the solid side of the flower with Daffodil Delight ink. I fussy cut and aligned the flowers along the left side of one Basic White panel.
The thank you is stamped with Early Espresso ink and is from the stamp set, With You In Mind. Add a few gold pearl bling and your card is ready to go. Stamp and decorate the second white panel as desired and attach to the inside of the card.
I hope you enjoyed this simple Five Minute cards using the reversible stamp set, Natural Botanticals. Happy Stamping!

Happy Wednesday all. I hope the weather has warmed up for you. Here in St. Louis, it is gorgeous. Much like our card today! LOL Today I am featuring a set from the annual catalog. The dies are amazing! Be sure to add this to your order today.
I started with a Highland Heather card base. For the rectangles, I cropped a 2-1/2 x 4 piece of Basic White and Gorgeous Grape CS. The greeting was stamped in Gorgeous Grape on a 1 x 2-1/2 and then cropped with the small rectangular die. See video for details on the birthday greeting, recognize it? It is from Beautiful Butterflies. I attached all pieces to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The inside has a small butterfly, see video for details.
I hope you enjoyed today’s card. Sometimes it is good to color with watercolor pencils. Don’t be afraid to alter your stamps if they are not working for you. It is always fun to think outside the box. Happy Stamping!
