Have fun creating three cards with the fancy Framed Florets Bundle. This bundle has a variety of fancy frames to create fun and festive cards for birthdays, anniversary’s, Mother’s Day and more.
Today’s card is was created using the Willow Tree Bundle featured on page 110 in the 2022-2023 annual catalog. I started with a Basic White card and added a layer of Pear Pizzazz. The willow leaves are stamped in Pear Pizzazz and cropped with the coordinating dies in this bundle and attach with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The tree trunk, Early Espresso, is also cut using the coordinating dies

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas! Today’s Make it Monday tutorial features the Delicate Edges Dies that can be found in the 2022-2023 annual catalog. I am featuring four cards using most of the delicate borders from this die set.
Today’s cards also feature two of our new in-colors, Starry Sky and Orchid Oasis. I hope you enjoy creating with these fun border dies and would love to see what you design.

Merry Christmas everyone. I hope you have a blessed day with friends and family! God’s Blessings for a safe and healthy holiday!
As we celebrate the birth of Our Lord, let us thank Mary and Joseph for being faithful servants and trusting in Divine Providence. While they were incredibly blessed, they too faced challenges and so become the perfect example for us to trust in the Lord’s Mercy, even in the midst of our own challenges. Both Mary and Joseph had to adjust to a new life, one they did not plan and one without family near. I am pretty sure that was not their plan and although they did not fully understand both knew how much God loved them. Mary knew she was chosen and so she humbled herself to wait on God’s plan.
Are we this patient? Are we this trusting? Mary had to travel at the end of her pregnancy on a donkey, not in an air-conditioned SUV. And Joseph had to walk. Mary gave birth in a barn like cave, not a fancy hospital room. Both Mary and Joseph had to leave their family and friends and flee to Egypt to save her son. Then later they both lost their beloved son for three days. Even through all these struggles they continued to trust in God’s plan for them.
This brings great hope to all of us. Even when we have trouble discerning God’s blessings in our lives, we can turn to the Holy Family and remember we too are chosen. We too are loved.
Thanks for stopping by! Until next time, be blessed, Renae
