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!

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

Natural Botanicals Five Minute Friday

Fun Fact Friday, Thank You / March 14, 2025

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!

Weekly Wednesday #46 Shades and Hues

Designer Series Paper, Thank You, Weekly Wednesday Videos / March 5, 2025

Hey friends I am back with another Weekly Wednesday video and the designer series paper pack for today’s card is on the Last Chance list. Click Here for the Shades and Hues and other products that are on sale. I know this paper pack will get your creative juices flowing.

To create today’s card, begin with a 4 x 5 -1/4 piece of designer series paper. The color of course is your choice. I choose the Pool Party-Coastal Cabana hues. Cut the panel in portrait position (short side at the top) at 2-1/2. Simply flip the smaller piece so the solid side is showing and attach both pieces to a Basic White card base. See video for details.

I stamped the solid banner from Kiss of Texture with Pool Party ink. The greeting is from Simply Said and stamped with Coastal Cabana. The banner dies from Stylish Shapes crop this banner perfectly-who knew? I love it when everything coordinates. Add a strip of Coastal Cabana CS and a few pearls and you are all set. Love it! This paper pack does all the work,. Be sure to order your pack today as it is on the Last Chance Product list and supplies are limited!

Kiss of Texture~Weekly Wed. #45

Thank You, Weekly Wednesday Videos / February 19, 2025

Well as promised on Monday I am back with two cards using the Kiss of Texture stamp set. This set makes the kissing technique super simple. Plus you don’t even need to kiss, you can use these stamps by themselves. It is very cold and snowy here, so it is a great time to be inside crafting. Have fun creating!

Here is the card without the Pool Party ribbon!

For card#1 I used Pool Party in for my solid square and Shaded Spruce to kiss the flower image. See video for details on the kissing technique. The greeting is from Simply Said and stamped with Shaded Spruce ink. I cropped the square images using the Stylish Shapes dies. These are such amazing dies, I hope they never retire!

Here is Card #2

For card #2 I began with a Fresh Freesia card base and added a Night of Navy layer. I used the circles from the Stylish Shape dies to create this fun circle thank you card. The greeting is from Simply Said, stamped with Night of Navy ink and cropped with the Labeled with Love dies. The solid circles are stamped with Balmy Blue and Fresh Freesia. I kissed the fun arch stamp to the blue circles with Night of Navy and to the Fresh Fressia circles with Petunia Pop ink. I added a few purple backed adhesive sequins for a little pop.

These are the Stylish Shapes dies that I used. Fun Fact: The short fat banner cuts the banner from the Kiss of Texture perfectly. I will post a card on Friday using both of these.

I know if you order these they will quickly become your go to dies for a ton of projects. If you place an order through my website, don’t forget to use the current host code. Happy Stamping!
