Beary Cute Christmas ~ Favorite Things Friday!

Now that the fall weather is finally here, did you know that Christmas is only 77 days away! I know all the stores are ready because the Christmas decorations have been out for weeks. Today’s card was created using the Beary Cute Bundle and the Beary Christmas Designer Series Paper pack.

I stated with a Night of Navy card base and added a layer of Beary Cute Designer Series Paper that measure 2-3/4 x 5 -1/4 to the top of the card front and a 2 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White CS to the lower front. Stamp Happy Holidays with Night of Navy ink as shown. The bears are stamped and cropped with the cute bear punch. The baby bear is fussy cut with Paper Snips! Happy Stamping!

Until next time, be blessed, Renae

Coffee With Friends-Favorite Things Friday!

Happy Friday everyone. Wow this week sure did fly by. I thought I would combine the Coffee and Friends stamp set with the Pick of the Patch Bundle for a fun summer into fall card.

I used my watercolor pencils to color in the friends and the bench. I stamped the grass from Oceanfront and then added some green coloring around it. The pumpkins were stamped with Pumpkin Pie ink and fussy cut with my handy dandy Paper Snips. I decided to only add one Pecan Pie stem (punched from the Pumpkin Builder Punch) and then just colored the green stems on the two small pumpkins.

I used the Starry Sky cardstock for my card base and added a Basic White layer. The greeting and all the images are stamped with Pecan Pie. A lot of pie in this card. LOL!! Happy Stamping!

Medley Mix-Favorite Things Friday!

Favorite Things Friday, Just Because Cards / September 15, 2023

Well, I am continuing my week of tribute to my fellow crafty demonstrators with two cards created with the Medley Mix Bundle featured on page 57 in the Holiday Mini catalog. My cards today are brought to you by Sally Nusbaum and Julie Weber. Thanks girls for sharing your talents with us.

Sally used Moody Mauve ink and a Blending Brush with one of our decorative masks to create a fun background. We used the punch to crop the star from the Moody Mauve and Very Vanilla before adding these layers to the card. It is a great way to minimize your cardstock waste.

Julie used Very Vanilla and Pretty Peacock to add a bit of texture to her card. I believe she used the Glorious Gingham 6 x 6 Designer paper to punch out the X’s. I hope you have fun creating with all of these card ideas.

Pick of the Patch-Favorite Things Friday!

Fall-Halloween-Thanksgiving Cards, Favorite Things Friday / September 1, 2023 / Pick of the Patch

Fall is just around the corner and if Fall is one of your favorite seasons then I am sure you are looking forward to come cooler weather. Here is St. Louis we have been very lucky to have a mild summer with relatively low humidity. So why not celebrate with one of the new fall stamps sets coming in the Holiday Mini catalog. Pick of the Patch is a fall punch bundle that I am sure you will love. Here is the card I created using this new bundle.

The colors for my card creation today are Early Espresso, Berry Burst and Pumpkin Pie. I added some Garden green leaves on my tree to give it an early fall look. My main white panel measures 3¼ x 3¼, the Pumpkin Pie is 3½ x 3½ and the Berry Burst is 3¾ x 3¾. The greeting is stamped with Espresso ink on a ¾ x 2¼ white scrap and mounted on a panel of Pumpkin Pie-1-7/8 x 2- 7/8.

I hope this card puts you in the mood for all things fall. This set and many others will be available for purchase on 6th, which is really only a five days away. Get your lists ready and order early because let’s face it these are stinkin’ cute and I want to be sure you get all your choices before they go on backorder. Happy Stamping!

Flash Back – Favorite Things Friday!

Favorite Things Friday, Welcome Baby! / August 11, 2023

So I am creating cards for a weekend vendor next weekend (August 18-20) in Danvers, Illinois and realized that I don’t have enough baby cards in my inventory. Of course I went through all my adorable baby sets and realized I do not have a current baby set! Oh my, we will have to remedy that.

So today’s cards are truly a flash back to when “Something Baby” was in the annual catalog. I do believe this is my all time favorite baby set from Stampin’ Up!

Danvers is small town outside of Bloomington/Normal where my grandma lived. I have so many fond memories of visiting her while in college (Illinois State University) and of course visiting Danvers Days before my kids were born, but especially when they were little. I have not been to Danvers Days since my daughter was 8 years old and she will be 30th this month! Yikes, it has been a long time.

If you live in Illinois mark your calendars for August 18-20 and come check out Danvers Days!
