I just love the Happiness Abounds bundle and the sweet greetings in this stamp set and I know I use the happy birthday all the time, so today I am using the You Matter to So Many greeting from the Something Fancy Bundle, another great set. I will be mailing this card to my mother in law, who turned 91 yesterday. No it is not her birthday card, I sent that last week, but she does enjoy getting hand-stamped cards in the mail each week, even when it is not her birthday.
Perhaps there is someone you know who would love to receive a homemade card from you. Just click the shop with me button below and start collecting supplies today, soon you will be creating something beautiful to share with others.

I started with a Crushed Curry card base and cut an access strip of Crushed Curry for across the lower portion of my cards. The Designer Series paper is from the Hues of Happiness paper pack on page 132 in the annual catalog. I stamped the greeting on a scrap of Basic White cardstock and cropped it with the Label Me Fancy Punch. I used Stampin’ Seal Adhesive to attach the strip and Stampin’ Dimensionals to attach the greeting.
This was a super simple card that not only uses minimal supplies, but comes together in about 5 minutes. So if you have a bunch of cards to send out, this is a perfect design for you. Happy Stamping!

When it comes to sending someone a hand-stamped card, you can never go wrong with flowers and a thinking of you sentiment. Today, my Thinking of you card begins with the Two Tone Flora Bundle and the Peaceful Moments stamp set. I chose Daffodil Delight and Cajun Craze as my flower colors.

I began with a basic white card base and added another layer of white that I first embossed using the Painted Texture 3-D Embossing folder. I really love the white on white look. The leaves are stamped in Old Olive and the greeting (7/8 x 2-1/2) in Basic Black.
I added a few gold pearls for some bling to compliment my flowers and that is how easy this card came together. Try stamping these beautiful flowers in different colors or switch out the embossing folder for the new Cane Weave folder for a whole new look. Either way I hope you have fun creating something beautiful today. Happy Stamping!

The Rain or Shine Designer Series paper featured in the mini January -April catalog is quickly becoming one of my favorites. I love these little critters. They are so bright and cheery, even if it is raining.
I started with a Balmy Blue card base and added a layer of Basic Black and then a layer of Rain or Shine DSP to the card front. Yes, I fussy cut Mr. Fox and the little flower bouquet, but you have to admit, they make the card. The sentiment is from Nature’s Prints featured in the 2022-2023 annual catalog.

I believe that everyone needs a little hope now and then. The Hope and Prayer stamp set featured in the 2023 Annual catalog is perfect for sending a little hope in the mail. I hope my card today brings a ray of hope to you today. I am a firm believer that there is always room for hope, so if you are having one of those days, I hope my card cheers you up just a bit.

I began with a Basic White cardstock and added a layer of Sun Prints Designer Series paper. The first layer measures 4 x 5 -1/4 and the smaller layer measures 2-1/2 x 4 and is backed with a 2-5/8 x 4-1/8 panel of Basic White cardstock. The greeting is stamped in Night of Navy on a Basic White panel (1-3/4 x 2-3/4).

Sometimes one of my favorite things is to reach for one of our punches because they always seem to be so quick and easy when creating a card on the go. The star of today’s card is the Heart Punch pack featured on page 153 in the annual catalog and the Sun Prints Designer Series Paper pack on page 134.

This paper pack features three of our gorgeous blues, Pacific Point, Night of Navy and the new In-Color Starry Sky. For my card base and scallop heart I used the Night of Navy cardstock. The greeting is from Peaceful Moments and is stamped with Night of Navy ink.
I hope wherever you are today that you will make some time to create something beautiful and bless someone with a hand-stamped card.

Thank you to all of you wonderful and loyal customers who placed an order during Sale-A-Bration. I hope you are enjoying your new toys and for those of you who just ordered yesterday, your toys will soon be on the way. I know many of you ordered the Favored Flowers Designer Series Paper pack as your freebie so I thought I would share with you one last card that I created using this paper.
Yesterday I posted a card using the Fresh Freesia flowers (click here) so today’s card is using the Calypso Coral and Petal Pink floral. I used the dies from Amazing Thanks to create the greeting. I cut the sayings twice, one with Calypso Coral cardstock and once with Basic Black. I glued them together slightly off centered to create a shadow effect.
The card base is Calypso Coral and I added a piece of Basic Black (4-1/8 x 5-3/8) before adding my layer of DSP (3 ¾ x 5). I also added a piece of Basic White (4 x 5¼) inside so I can write a message. I plan to give this card to someone I met last weekend at church. She did such an amazing job reading scripture so I thought, this amazing woman deserves a special handmade card. I have to admit I don’t know her name, but I am sure she will appreciate the card just the same.
Thanks for stopping by and for placing an order. May God continue to bless you and inspire you to create something beautiful for someone this week.

Happy Tuesday! I am so glad the weather is beginning to warm up. I love winter, but I also love it when the flowers begin to bud. I hope this card gets you in the mood for spring.
#blessedbycards
I began with a Garden Green card base to get me in the mood for fresh cut grass. I do love the smell of fresh cut grass, but I am not a fan of the candles that try to mimic this smell. I want the real thing.
On the front of my Garden Green card I added a layer of Basic White CS. I am using the Sentimental Park Bundle featured in the new Spring Mini catalog. I stamped the leaves in Garden Green and the flowers in Polished Pink. I then used the flower dies to crop a variety of sized using Polished Pink CS.
The greeting is from the Sentimental Bundle and is stamped in both Garden Green and Polished Pink inks. I love how versatile this stamp set is and I also love the script with the printed greetings. This is a super simple card and a perfect way to reach out to someone today.
I hope your day is blessed-Happy Stamping!

Hey all, happy Tuesday! I am excited to share the Sentimental Park Bundle with you today. This bundle has some great sayings and so many beautiful flowers. I am also using the new 3-D Cane Weave embossing flower. I decided to emboss a white panel and attach it to my white card and I have to say I love the look.
The other panels were created using the Sun Prints Designer Series paper pack that can be found in the 2022-2023 annual catalog. Notice the white flowers on the blue panel? I created these by stamping one of the flower stamps in this bundle with Craft White ink. They are so soft and I think they go well with this paper.
I stamped the greeting in Night of Navy ink directly to the Gray Granite DSP panel. Both panels are backed with some Night of Navy CS. To add just a bit more definition and some more of those adorable flowers, I stamped the small bunch of flowers on a scrap of Basic White CS, cropped with the coordinating die and then colored with my Night of Navy Blend Combo markers. The centers of the flower are colored with a Daffodil Delight Blend.
I hope you enjoyed this card. I really love how the Cane Weave Embossing folder looks on this card. I added all my panels and flowers with my Tombow Liquid glue. I did not use the Stampin’ Dimensionals as I thought the card itself had enough layering, but if you are hand-delivering your card creation, I think the Stampin’ Dimensionals would be a nice touch.
Happy Stamping!
