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!

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.

We are having fun again today with the new Earthen Textures Bundle features in the 2023-2024. Today I created a simple thank you card using a Cajun Craze and Old Olive. This super simple card goes together is less than 5 minutes and that surely is a favorite to celebrate this Friday! #supersimplecards
If you follow my blog or come to any of my in-person classes then you know that I love to fussy cut. Even though I enjoy a good fussy cut card, I much prefer a super simple card that goes together quickly. I hope you enjoy today’s creation!
#supersimplecards
I began with a Cajun Craze card base and added a layer of Basic White. I cut my white card panel at 3 ½ x 3 ½ x 4 ¾ and stamped the fern/wheat looking stamp with Old Olive ink several times and then a few at the bottom with Cajun Craze. I also stamped the twig looking stamp and the greeting with Cajun Craze. The greeting is from Layering Leaves.
The greeting is stamped on a separate white panel and mounted on a 1 x 4 ¾ piece of Cajun Craze. I simply layered the greeting to the bottom of the white panel w/my stamped images and attached to the card front. Simple Simon!
If you have not had a chance to add this amazing and very versatile bundle to your stamping stash, I would do it soon. It is quickly becoming one of the most popular bundles and you want to get yours while supplies last. Happy Stamping!

Last week the Make It Monday video was all about Earthen Textures and I promised a card using the larger floral die that score and cuts to create fun folds. CLICK HERE if you missed those cards. My color focus for the florals is Old Olive, Cajun Craze and Pecan Pie. I added a three sprigs in Crumb Cake and one from Mossy Meadow.
Earthen Textures Bundle
I began with a Night of Navy card base and added a layer of Old Olive. Don’t you just love how the pre-scored leaves on this die adds dimension to our card creation. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to attach he floral leaves. The greeting is stamped with Night of Navy ink and again, I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to attach it over the stems of the leaves.

I don’t know what the weather is like where you all live, but here in St. Louis, it is HOT! We have been in the 90’s and even 100’s, not quite as hot as Texas, but certainly warm enough for some refreshing lemonade. Today’s card was created from the So Refreshing Bundle. So Happy 4th of July! I hope you enjoy some real and refreshing lemonade with friends!!!!
Here is a closer look at that bundle. There is so much that you can do with all the dies in this bundle and you have to admit those strawberries are stinkin’ cute!!!
So even though it is hot out, enjoy some cool lemonade and strawberry pink lemonade is even better! So Refreshing……
I began with a Blueberry Bushel card base and added a layer of our new Bubble Bath pink. It is so sweet. I know you are going to love creating with the soft and subtle pink. The flowers are also stamped with Bubble Bath and the leaves in Granny Apple Green. I cropped the blanked from some of our Glorious Gingham Designer Series paper pack and trust me it is glorious and just perfect for a picnic blanket!
I added a layer of Basic White that I embossed using the Metal Plate embossing folder and cropped those stinkin’ cute strawberries from Real Red cardstock. The greeting is from Timeless Arrangements and stamped in Blueberry Bushel. The dies in this bundle are so amazing too! OMG there are so many wonderful products in our 2023-2024 annual catalog!

Today I am sharing an out of the box way to create a card using the upcoming Translucent Florals Bundle. Yesterday I shared four cards using this bundle in my Make It Monday series. CLICK HEREif you missed that post. On the video, I mentioned turning my boo boo into a creative opportunity. And so here it is……..
This was a super simple card created with White and Cherry Cobbler cardstock , Cherry Cobbler ink, Timeless Arrangements stamp set and of course the Translucent Florals Bundle. Remember, this bundle will be available in the new Holiday mini coming September 1st. Until then, happy stamping!

One of my favorite things is stamping with friends and today, I am not only stamping with a very dear friend, but I am also borrowing her stamp set for my blog post! What could be better than that? Thanks Cherie!
At first I have to admit this bundle seemed a bit much for me, but after creating a few cards with it, it is growing on me. LOL Unfortunately the bundle is currently unavailable as the dies are on backorder. The stamp set is still available and as soon as the bundle is back in stock I will feature more cards for one of my Make it Monday tutorials, so stay tuned for that. But for today, I began my card creation a Boho Blossom card base. Boho Blossom is just one of 5 new In-Colors. Click here to check out the other colors.
#blessedbycards
Next I added a layer of Cajun Craze. I stamped the pots with Cajun Craze and Boho inks on a 3-3/4 x 5 piece of Basic White cardstock and in order to make them look layered, I stamped the small pot first and then masked it before stamping the taller pot. I then stamped the ferns with Old Olive and the flowers, in Boho Blossom. The thank you is from the bundle and stamped in Boho Blossom on a 3/8 x 2-3/8 panel of white. Just add a little bling and your card is complete.
I hope you have a fabulous Friday. Happy Stamping!

Today I decided to create a card with Poppy Parade. I do like this color, but for some reason I don’t use it very often, so I decided to pair it with Misty Moonlight and the Dainty Flowers stamp set. I stated with the Poppy Parade card base and added a layer of Misty Moonlight cardstock. The Basic White panel measures 3-3/4 x 5.
The flowers are stamped with Memento Black ink and colored with Poppy Parade, Misty Moonlight and Granny Apple Stampin’ Blend markers. The greeting is stamped with Misty Moonlight. This Dainty Flower set is very versatile and the greetings are very dainty. I wonder if that is why they called this set Dainty Flowers.
The card seriously did not take much time to create. I think I spent more time deciding on the colors than I did creating the actual card. So go ahead and grab some Stampin’ Blends and create something beautiful today.

Sometimes the simple things in life are the best. They are not free mind you, but the best. Every once in awhile it is fun to create a tone on tone card using our Basic White cardstock. For today’s card I embossed the front panel of my card with the Fern 3-D embossing folder and then added a layer of Basic White using some of our Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Of course before mounting my second white layer, I stamped the flowers from the Dainty Flower stamp set with Memento Black ink and colored them with Poppy Parade and Old Olive Stampin’ Blends. The greeting is also from this set and is stamped in Memento Black ink. I layered the greeting using Stampin’ Dimensionals as well.
I really love how the tone on tone white makes it super simple to make this card look elegant. Happy Stampin’!
