Happy Birthday! Petal Park Flowers

Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature, Happy Birthday /

Last week I posted a sympathy card using the Petal Park stamp set and Petal Park Builder punch and today, I am posting a much happier card. This is the birthday card I make for my niece. Her birthday was in April and so I thought these flowers were just perfect for her card.

I used one of the new colors in our main line, Bubble Bath pink. I think this color is so soft and welcoming. It is great for a birthday, anniversary or thinking of you card, but I can also see using it for a baby card. I have to admit I cheated and used one of our retired inks, Soft Succulent. To be honest, I had already created the card and then realized Soft Succulent retired. Oh well, I decided to post it for you anyway.

In addition to Petal Park, I also used the greetings from Lighting the Way and Something Fancy. If you have not already added Bubble Bath to your ink pad collection, now is the time. I really do think you will love how soft it looks on your card creations.

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

Happy Mother’s Day-Sunday Wisdom

2 Comments / Sunday Wisdom /

Today, we honor all mothers and give thanks for their willingness to bring us into this life. We honor those who are still living, those who have passed from this earthly life and those women who while they may not be our biological mother, have supported and loved us unconditionally.

As many of you know I lost my mother in June, so this is my first Mother’s Day without my mom, but I feel her love every day and thank God for the grace she was to me and many others while on this earth.

This month we also lost my mother-in-law, who was also a gift to so many.  So while my husband and I are sad not to have our mother’s present, we know that Mary, our spiritual is rejoicing with them in Heaven.  So whether your mom is with you or not, let us celebrate the sacrifices and love of all mothers. We ask the Blessed Mother to watch over us teach us how to be love for one another.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Petal Park Sympathy

Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature /

Well folks, another Sympathy card. I guess some weeks are just like that. Luckily the Petal Park set and builder punch is a great choice to lift someone’s spirit. I love these flowers and the punch make it so quick and easy. Click here for tips on how to stamp and punch perfect images every time.

While sending sympathy cards is not my favorite thing, flowers are and of course there are a lot of flower choices in the new 2023-2024 AC (annual catalog). This card could easily be turned into a birthday, anniversary or thinking of you card.

I started with a Highland Heather card base and added a Basic White panel. I then stamped the leave images with Granny Apple Green ink, followed by Memento Black for the matching detailed stamp, directly to the white panel. On a scrap piece of Basic White I lined up my stamps with the punch (click here for video on that) and stamped the flowers in Highland Heather ink and the again the detailed flowers with Memento Black ink. Punch and arrange flowers as desired.

The greeting is from Something Fancy and is stamped in Memento Black. I first tried stamping the leaves in Garden Green and then Old Olive, but they seemed too dark, so I went for the Granny Apple Green.

Happy Stamping!

Back to the Ocean!

Get Well & Sympathy /

A few weeks ago I posted an ocean scene card from Virginia Beach, click here if you missed that post. Unfortunately we are heading back to the ocean, not for a visit with my mother -in-law this time, but for her funeral. It is hard to believe that only 6 days after returning to St. Louis from a great visit the Lord called her home so quickly. Rest in Peace, mom! So of course I thought it would be appropriate to post an Ocean Sympathy card today.

I began with a Misty Moonlight card base and added a layer of Mossy Meadow. My Basic White CS measures 3¾ x 5 and that is where I did my blending. My ocean/sky was created with Balmy Blue and Misty Moonlight. You can use the Blending Brushes or sponges. I tend to be a sponge girl, but either will work.

The greenery is stamped with Mossy Meadow and Old Olive ink. The sandy beach and the rocks were stamped with Crumb Cake. With Deepest Sympathy is part of the Something Fancy stamp set that was featured last month in the mini and is now in our 2023-2024 annual catalog.

I almost forgot to mention the star of the show, Oceanfront. I do love this set and I love visiting the ocean, but I am sure this trip will be very different from 2 weeks ago. Check out this set, you won’t be disappointed. I hope this card inspires you to create something beautiful.

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