Painted Lavender Bundle-Favorite Things Friday

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!

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

Kindness-Favorite Things Friday

Thank You /

Don’t you just love how a single act of kindness changes everything? I think that is one of my favorite things about the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday seasons. It calls us to be more mindful of how we treat others and to be grateful for the blessing we have instead of focusing on what we don’t have or even worse on what others have. It keeps us humble and focused on the present moment of joy and happiness, which can ultimately lead to peace, at least peace of heart.

Today my card focuses on that very kindness. I again used the watercolor background technique to create my own designer series paper if you will to cut out the Handcrafted Elements Dies. I added this sweet die to a layer of Very Vanilla cardstock. I used Highland Heather cardstock for my card base and border for the greeting. I think the Highland Heather pairs perfectly with my watercolor background die.

The greeting, from Timeless Arrangements, is stamped with Highland Heather ink and the little flower/leaf die is cut from the same watercolor background paper that I created. Of course I just had to add a few rhinestone bling but feel free to decorate as much or little as you like.

Thank you all for being such loyal followers. I hope you have fun creating many different cards this holiday season. Happy Stamping!

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

Thanks-Handcrafted Elements Dies

Thank You /

I am having more fun playing with our Handcrafted Element Dies. Don’t forget these beauties are on sale. Click here for our Last Chance product sale! Please note all products are while supplies last. I decided to use a Basic Black card base and added a layer of Poppy Parade. I again cut my die from the watercolor background that I created and added it to another black layer.

I used a corner rounder on my second layer of black to add a more elegant look. The thanks is stamped with Memento Black and is from Artistically Inked. I added just a bit of bling to finish off my card. I believe the rhinestones that I used are retired and that is okay because I am sure you have plenty of bling in your crafting stash. Right? Have fun creating-Happy Stamping!

Earthen Textures-A Harvest of Blessings!

Fall-Halloween-Thanksgiving Cards, Thank You /

Wow, where on earth did October go. I know that it is a fun month, but it really has just flown by this year. I am well into the fall spirit, although the weather feels more like spring in St. Louis, but the fall leaves are changing and they are gorgeous.

Today thought I would share two cards using one of my favorite bundles from the annual 2023-2024 catalog, Earthen Textures. This sweet set really is so great for a variety of cards. Happy Stamping!

I used some Cajun Craze and Very Vanilla cardstock to create my first card. I used the dies for the pots to crop them from the Earthen Elegance Designer Series Paper and added a Pecan Pie topper to the shorter pot. I also used some of the flowers from Layering Flowers to fill my pot. The Thank you is stamped on a piece of Very Vanilla and I attached it to my card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

My second cards was created using a Early Espresso card base, some Very Vanilla cardstock and some of the paper from that same paper pack, Earthen Elegance. This time I put my pots on the left and less flowers and more of the fall looking sprigs. I used Cherry Cobbler and Mossy Meadow to give it a rich fall look. I love this sweet greeting and that is in the Pick of the Patch bundle from the holiday mini catalog. It really does give it a harvesty-fall look.
