Blessed By Cards w/Renae Novak

Willow Tree Anniversary

2 Comments / Anniversary & Love-Weddings / January 4, 2023

I hope you all had a wonderful New Year. It is always wonderful to spend time with family and friends. I do love the holidays and it is always hard getting back into the swing of a regular routine, so today I thought I would share an anniversary card using the Willow Tree Bundle in the annual catalog.

One of my New Year’s resolutions is to share at least three cards a month that features a stamp set or bundle from the annual catalog. I love having the holiday mini and the spring mini catalogs, but sometimes I tend to ignore all the wonderful sets in our main catalog.

Until next time, be blessed, Renae

Just Because Cards / January 3, 2023

While it is true, Christmas is over, the lights are still twinkling and joy is still in the air, at least at my house! So I thought it would be good to remind you that there are only 2 days left to order from the holiday mini catalog. If you are like me then you already have most everything from that catalog, but just in case you are a last minute shopper, tomorrow is the last day!

It is always sad to say good-bye to our Christmas sets, but don’t despair because spring is just around the bend and to cheer us on we have the new “Spring Mini” and the January-February 2023 SALE-A-BRATIONS catalogs. That’s right folks! This Thursday, January 5th, the spring mini goes live and you can begin earning free products for every $50 you spend. Just place an order from the 2022-2023 annual catalog or the new “Spring Mini” any time between January 5 and February 23, 2023.

If earning free products is not exciting enough, I am sure you will love the new purple cover on the new “Spring Mini”. It just brings a smile to my face! My card today is a sneak peek of a new set in the mini catalog, Love Cats!

Project Measurements

Cajun Craze CS- 5½ x 8½ (card base), 2 x 5¼
Basic White CS- 4 x 5¼ (2), 3 x 4
Smoky Slate CS-2 x 3

Stampin’ Seal Adhesive or Liquid Glue

Sorry I cannot post the actual PDF for this catalog until it goes live, so be sure to stop back here on Thursday to download yours.

If you are a valued customer and have purchased $50 from my online store in the post 6 months you should have already received your hard copy in the mail. If not please contact me.

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