Happy Easter ~ Five Minute Friday

Leave a Comment / Easter-Spring, Five Minute Cards / April 18, 2025

Happy Friday everyone. It is almost Easter and time to celebrate our risen Lord. I hope you have great cause to celebrate and gather with family this holiday. Today’s Easter card was created using a retired set, Thoughout the Year, and a last chance product, Flowers of Beauty. The two step flowers in this stamp set make it super easy to create a five minute Easter Card.

I stamped the solid portion of my flower with Boho Blue ink (last chance product) and the detailed outline with Misty Moonlight ink. Before stamping the Boho Blue on my card front, I first stamped it off on a piece of scrap paper. This will give you a lighter look for your flower, but one that still coordinates perfectly with the Boho Blossom cardstock.

The Boho Blossom card base sized is A2 and I stamped my images on a Basic White panel that measures 4 x 5 1/4. I cut a 1/2 x 5 1/4 inch Boho Blosssom CS and added it across the width of my card just under the greeting. Just add bling of your choice and you are ready to go.

If you don’t have black dot bling, you can always cheat and use a black sharpie marker. I do this alot when stamping with my nursing home friends. The tiny bling pieces are too difficult for them to manage, but the sharpie works great! Happy Stamping! Have a Blessed Easter!

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

Five Minute Friday-Timeless Plaid DSP

Five Minute Cards, Happy Birthday, Masculine Cards / March 21, 2025

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!

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

Five Minute Friday Serene Love DSP

Congratulations-Graduation-Retirement, Designer Series Paper, Five Minute Cards / February 28, 2025

Happy Friday everyone. I thought I would start a new series for Fridays called Five Minute Fridays. I am hoping these super quick cards will inspire you to create something beautiful to share. I will keep the Fun Fact Fridays alive as well. So on Fridays you will either see a Five Minute card or a Fun Fact Friday. Either way, we will all be ready to celebrate Fridays, right?

Today’s Five Minute card is created using the Serene Love 12 x 12 Designer Series paper. This is a great paper pack and it is in the Last Chance Products sections while supplies last. Click here to see all the Last Chance Products!

I started with a Night of Navy card base. I chose the Night of Navy stripes with the Night of Navy floral on the reverse side. I first cut a 2 x 5-1/4 strip and then a 3 x 5 -1/4 strip. I used the 2″ strip for the stripes and the 3″ for the flowers. See sample above. I then added a 1/2″ x 5-1/4 inch strip of Night of Navy cardstock.

The greeting is from So Sincere and is stamped with Night of Navy ink. I cropped the greeting using the Labeled with Love die. Just add your bling of choice and you are all set. Of course you can take it a step further and color some of the flowers. Totally your call. Happy Stamping!
