Everyday Details Dies-Happy Birthday

Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature, Happy Birthday /

Wow! Have you checked out the Everyday Details Dies, they are so fancy. If you are loving the new Perennial Postage Dies, you are going to love these. This bundle is unique because the dies do not necessarily coordinate with the stamp set. But check these out! They have coordinating rectangles, circles and a few extra fancy details. In today’s card I am using the rectangles.

EVERYDAY DETIALS DIES

I started with a Boho Blossoms card base. This blue is so soft and is one of the In-Colors that will be going away in April. If you have not added it to your collection, now is the time. Just click before and start shopping. I stamped the flower pot from the Everyday Details Bundle and used the watercolor pencils to add some color. The blender pens are a great way to smooth out the lines in your coloring. If you look closely you can see a few lines in my coloring but that is because I glued before coloring.

The greeting is from Something Fancy and stamped with Memento Black. I popped it up with a few mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. For my fancy borders. I used the largest rectangle and cropped it twice, once with Basic White and once with Boho Blossoms CS. I had to cut the Boho Blossom rectangle down, but the Basic White fit perfectly inside. Happy Stamping!

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

Fun with Metallic Enamel Effects

Favorite Things Friday, Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature, Thinking of You /

Well we made it to Friday, yahoo! It has been a week. I guess some weeks are just busier than others and I think we will all agree that no matter how busy life gets there is always time for crafting. Today I am sharing a card I made using our Metallic Enamel Effect. These amazing bottles are so great for adding a special touch to your crafting project. The only real trick is patience. You will need to let them dry completely before you assemble.

It may be difficult to see how beautiful they really are with just a photos, so I suggest you order a set today and give them a try. I admit I was a bit impatient and perhaps I did not let mine dry completely. It still looks good, just some of my dots may be a little more flat.

I chose a Starry Sky card base and added another Starry Sky layer that I dry embossed using the new Layered Floral embossing folder. This is by far my favorite embossing folder. I choose to accent the smaller flowers with a dot of the silver Metallic Enamel Effects, again you will need to let them dry completely! No problem right? We can just move onto another crafting project while it dries.

Metallic Enamel Effects

I stamped my greeting with Starry Sky ink and although I did not use Stampin’ Dimensionals to attach my floral layer, I do think that would be a nice added touch. Give it a try and let me know how it turns out. Happy Stamping!

Everyday Details Bundle-Happy Retirement!

Congratulations-Graduation-Retirement, Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature / / , ,

Happy Wednesday all and what a very happy Wednesday it is for my sister-in-law as she officially retired yesterday! Yahoo! Bring on the fun and relaxation! And in honor of her retirement I am sharing the card I created for her, although she might see this post before she gets her card!

I decided to use the Everyday Details Bundle and go sweet and simple with the teacups. I stamped the greeting on a 3 x 4 piece of Basic White and layered it to a Blueberry Bushel panel and then added it to a Basic White card base. I colored the teacups with some of our Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers and yes, I fussy cut the teacups. Sorry I just could not help myself.

I added a few Tinsel Gems in blue and quickly put it in the mail. Congratulations Diana I hope you enjoy many, many, happy healthy retirement years! Happy Stamping my friends. Stop back Friday for another Favorite Things Friday post!

Fresh As A Daisy ~ Favorite Things Friday!

Easter-Spring, Favorite Things Friday, Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature, Thank You / / ,

Hey there my stamping friends. I am back today with another favorite designer series paper pack from the 2023-2024 annual catalog, Fresh As A Daisy. This amazing paper pack with make card making an daisies just happens to be one of my favorite flowers.

I love the softness of the Boho Blossom daisies in this paper and so I started with a Boho Blossom card base. I chose Cajun Craze ink to compliment the background color in this sheet of designer series paper.

I used the dies in the Perennial Postage bundle to crop a Boho Bloom and Basic White layer. The greeting that I stamped with Cajun Craze ink is from the Timeless Arrangements stamp set.

I guess you can already tell that one of my favorite new bundles is the Perennial Postage Bundle. Get a free Sale-a-Bration stamp set or paper pack when you place an order for this bundle or any $50 order. Just click on the images below. Happy Stamping!

Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper

Anniversary & Love-Weddings, Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature / /

Happy Wednesday. Today I am featuring one of our designer series paper packs in the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog, Countryside Inn. The colors featured in this paper are Balmy Blue, Boho Blue, Misty Moonlight, and Night of Navy. This paper pack is featured on page 129 in the AC catalog. I combined this paper pack with a one of the new bundles in the January 2024 mini catalog, Perennial Postage.

I began with a Basic White card, added a panel of Night of Navy, followed by a panel of the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper. I used the flip side of this paper to create the greeting tag, cropping it with one of the Perennial Postage dies. The greeting is stamped with silver ink and embossed with clear embossing powder.

I think you will love the versatility of this new bundle. The dies are great for creating cards and scrapbook pages. Have fun playing with all these blues and creating with the new postage dies. Happy Stamping!

Flowers in the Winter-Painted Lavender!

1 Comment / Easter-Spring, Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature, Sale-a-Bration / / ,

I thought since it is really rainy and snowy this week having a pop of spring would be nice. Flowers are always fun, no matter what the season. This summer my husband and I planted some Knock Out Roses, mainly because I don’t have a green thumb and I heard these were virtually indestructible. Well, three out of the five plants began to bloom and this past week even though the temperatures were very cold, one single rose appeared. I think that was my mom giving me a sign from heaven that she is still watching over all of us.

Today I am sharing a card I made with the new Painted Lavender Bundle. I did not actually use any of the dies from the bundle, just the stamps and a greeting from Timeless Arrangements. Cards flowers are the best, because they always look good, cost relatively little investment and are definitely indestructible. LOL

I began with an Orchid Oasis card base and stamped two lavender leaves with Orchid Oasis ink on a 2-3/4 x 3-3/4 piece of Basic White CS, mounted it on a layer of Orchid Oasis, then another Basic White panel and finally to the card front. I stamped some leaves with Old Olive ink, but stamped off first using the second generation as my image. I also stamped some of the grass at the bottom.

The greeting is stamped in Orchid Oasis, mounted on a 5/8 x 2-1/2 panel of Orchid Oasis CS and attached to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. This would also make a fabulous Easter card!

The Painted Lavender Bundle is new in the 2024 January Mini Catalog and very popular as it is already on Low Inventory. Order yours today and add a pack of paper to get a free Sale-A-Bration product of your choice. Happy Stamping!

Painted Lavender Bundle-Favorite Things Friday

Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature, Thank You /

Happy Friday! I trust you all had a blessed Christmas Season. Being with family truly is my favorite thing and we were blessed to have both kids home for the holidays.

Sorry it has been awhile since I posted. I was having a few technical difficulties. Good ones as this year my kids gave me a new computer, actually my son built it and some of the parts took longer to get here than anticipated, so I was without a computer for a bit. But today I am excited to share a new bundle from the January 2024, Painted Lavender.

I stamped three lavender leaves on a 2 1/2 x 4 piece of Basic White cardstock with Gorgeous Grape ink. I stamped and cropped two more and added them using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I layered the Basic White with a Mossy Meadow cardstock layer and added a Mossy Meadow twine bow.

The greeting is from Timeless Arrangements and is stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink and cropped with the coordinating die. I also used Stampin’ Dimensionals to attach the greeting. happy Stamping!
