And now today’s bonus card…..

This is some of our retired patterned paper, but it is still a great choice. I mounted the three strips of DSP on a 4 x 5-1/4 panel of Crushed Curry, but you will want to choose a color that coordinates with your paper. For this sample I used the same paper pack, coordinating colors, but a different strip for each section. The greeting is stamped with Memento Black ink and fussy cut with our paper snips. I love our snips, they make fussy cuttings so easy. Click here for our paper snips!

I hope you enjoyed today’s video. Don’t forget to check out the new rewards program. Have a fantastic day…..Happy Stamping!

Until next time, be blessed, Renae

Weekly Wed. #50 Friends of the Ocean

Leave a Comment / Happy Birthday, Thinking of You, Weekly Wednesday Videos /

Happy Wednesday. I am once again featuring two cards I created using the Friends of the Ocean paper pack. It is time to think about venturing out to the beach. Summer will be here before you know it.

Our first card was created using the Lemon Lime Twist cardstock. I don’t often use this color, but it coordinates perfectly with this paper pack. Plus it is so vibrant and just plain fun! The greetings if from With You in Mind and is stamped with Melon Mambo ink.

Sticking with the colors in the paper our second card is the In-color, Summer Splash. It also coordinates perfectly, so fresh and summery! I stamped the greeting from Layering Leaves in Summer Splash and cut out some of our tiny ocean friends using my paper snips. If you watch the video, you will know why I needed to add the extra starfish.

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.

If you feel called, please join me in praying for this gentle soul, this beautiful angel.

Five Minute Friday-Timeless Plaid DSP

Leave a Comment / Five Minute Cards, Happy Birthday, Masculine Cards /

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!

#47 Weekly Wed. Everyday Details~Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday, Weekly Wednesday Videos /

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!

Fun Fact Friday~ How Much Space Do You Need to Craft?

Designer Series Paper, Fun Fact Friday, Happy Birthday, Sale-a-Bration /

It’s Friday, I hope you are all ready for the weekend. I know I am. One thing I have to do this weekend in clean my craft room. It is a mess! I am sure that never happens to you! Fun Fact: Why is it that no matter how big a crafting space is most crafters tend to create in a 8 x 8 space surrounded by misc. crafting supplies? Well, my craft rooms needs attention so I am crafting in a 4 x 4 space. Time to clean up, organize, and get energized.

Today’s card features the new Beautiful Butterflies Bundle and more of that gorgeous Bloom Impressions Designer Series Paper. This paper pack can be yours free with a $60 order through my online store, CLICK HERE

Project Supplies

  • Blueberry Bushel CS- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, plus scrap for butterfly body
  • Very Vanilla CS- 4 x 5 1/4 (2)
  • Basic Black CS-4 x 4
  • Melon Mambo CS-1/8 x 7
  • Bloom Impressions DSP-4 x 5 1/4 cut on the diagonal
  • Stampin’ Adhesive
  • With You In Mind stamp set
  • Blueberry Bushel Ink

I started by cutting my piece of DSP in half on the diagonal and then attached it to the Very Vanilla panel. I then added my strip of Melon Mambo and trimmed off the edges. Crop the butterfly using Basic Black CS and and the body with Blueberry Bushel and attach to card front. Stamp the greeting with Blueberry Bushel ink and add the 2nd panel of Very Vanilla to the inside.

This was a super fun and very easy card lay out. If you have this amazing DSP, I hope you are enjoying it as much as I am. If not hop on over to my online store and purchase yours today. Happy Stamping!
