Peace Be With You! -Sunday Wisdom

Sunday Wisdom /

Today we celebrate Pentecost, the coming of the Holy Spirit. We can find consolation in the life of Jesus and how he always brings peace and reconciliation.

So let’s meditate a bit on peace. What is peace? Where is there a lack of peace in my life?

The gift of the Holy Spirit brings us ever closer to the Lord. So when it comes to inner peace we need to ask ourselves, “Do I allow God to move in me so that I can offer the gift of peace to others.”

Simply Elegant Designer Series Paper

Paper Crafting Ideas, Thinking of You / / ,

The Simply Elegant Designer Series paper pack truly is elegant and I created this card for a friend of mine who will be ordained a priest in a few weeks. It is simple and yet elegant, gee I wonder who named this paper pack.

I used Smoky Slate and Cajun Craze cardstock. It is amazing how the Smoky Slate takes on a silver hue and the Cajun Craze a copper hue when combined with this extraordinary paper. I will definitely be adding another pack to my next order.

Bloom Where You’re Planted!

Happy Birthday, Paper Crafting Ideas /

Today in the greenhouse we have some potted plants from the Simply Succulents Bundle and a splash of the Bloom Where You’re Planted Designer Series Paper.

I don’t know about you, but I seem to be always in need of a simple thank you card. Receiving a hand-crafted card is a true treasure and a great way to spread a little joy.

I love all the colors in this designer series paper and with a little fussy cutting, I dressed up the inside of my card. I don’t love fussy cutting things, but the Stampin’ Up! Paper Snips sure does make the job easier. It is all about the right tools, right? Or should I say toys! LOL

Cutting Measurements

All Measurement=inches  CS=Cardstock DSP=Designer Series Paper  Landscape Position=Long side   Portrait Position=short side

Supplies

  • Cinnamon Cider Cardstock- 5½ x 8½ (card base)
  • Smoky Slate Cardstock-2×2
  • Basic White Cardstock- 4 x 5¼ (outside), 4 x 5¼ (inside) #159276
  • Garden Green Cardstock-2¾ x 5½
  • Pear Pizzazz Cardstock- 2½ x 2¾
  • Bloom Where You’re Planted Designer Series Paper
  • Simply Succulents Bundle
  • Memento Black Ink # 132708
  • Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine #149653
  • Paper Snips #103579
  • Stampin’ Seal Adhesive
  • Tombow Liquid Glue

Directions

  • Score the Cinnamon Cider cardstock in landscape position at 4¼. Fold & burnish.
  • Cut a 4×4 piece of DSP and then cut it on the diagonal, creating two equal pieces.
  • Attach one piece to the Basic White panel and then attach to the card front.
  • Use the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine and the Simply Succulents Bundle to crop the planter and the greenery. Attach the greenery to the planter using liquid glue.
  • Now attach the plants to the card front.
  • Use the Stamparatus to stamp the greeting in Memento Black Ink.
  • Use the Paper Snips to fussy cut one of the plants from the paper.
  • Use the Stamparatus to add the inside greeting and attach the potted plant on the lower right corner and adhere to the inside.
