Do Not Be Troubled-Sunday Wisdom

Sunday Wisdom / April 18, 2021

Today’s gospel reminds us that we do not always have to have all the answers. Jesus continually instructed His apostles and He was with them, so of course He will be patient with us.

Jesus wants to guide us, we just need to open our hearts and trust. So do not be troubled. Let us open our minds and allow God to fill us with His mercy and peace.

Rooted in Nature with Forever Fern DSP!

Fall-Halloween-Thanksgiving Cards, Paper Crafting Ideas / April 17, 2021

I am excited to share with you another card that I made with some Forever Greenery designer series paper scraps. This card features the Rooted in Nature set and the greeting is from Framed For You. Both of these sets will retire at the end of this month.

Don’t forget if you live in the St. Louis area, I would love for you to join us for our monthly stamp camps. CLICK HERE for upcoming dates.

Begin with a 5½ x 8½” piece of Shaded Spruce cardstock. In landscape position, (aka the long side), score at 4 ¼”. Fold and burnish. This will create a card base.
Cut a 4 x 5 ¼” piece of Pear Pizzazz cardstock and layer it to the card front.
Cut a 2 ¾ x 2 ¾” square of Forever Greenery designer series paper and cut it in half on the diagonal. Layer one of the halves to the lower left corner of the Pear Pizzazz panel.
Cut a 3 x 4” piece of Basic White cardstock and stamp the top of the large tree from Rooted in Nature in Shaded Spruce ink and the trunk in Soft Suede.
Stamp the greeting from Framed For You in Soft Suede in the upper left corner of the white panel and attach to a 3-1/8 x 4-1/8 piece of Soft Suede cardstock.
Attach tree layer to the card front.
Cut a 4 x 5 1/4″ piece of Basic White cardstock for the inside and decorate as desired.

Until next time, be blessed, Renae

Sunny Sunflowers!

2 Comments / Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature / April 16, 2021

Hello all of my crafting friends. I do hope your day is filled with sunshine. It is supposed to be sunny today here in St. Louis, but the rain is moving in on Saturday, so of course that will make the ground perfect for planting real sunflowers.

My card today is clean and simple design because sometimes all you need is a little simple stamping to create something beautiful. I love the black and white look and when we add a little color, everything just pops!

Begin with a 5½ x 8½” piece of Basic Black cardstock. In landscape position, (aka the long side), score at 4 ¼”. Fold and burnish. This will create a card base.
Cut a 4 x 5 ¼” piece of Basic White cardstock and stamp the large Sunflower from the Sunflowers bundle in Memento Black ink half off the left edge twice, one at the top and one toward the bottom.
Stamp another large sunflower on a 4×4 piece of Basic White cardstock and color it with the Daffodil Delight and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends.
Use the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine and the coordinating flower die to and crop out the sunflower.
Attach the colored sunflower to the left side of the white card panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals and layer it so some of the flower hangs off the left side.
Use paper snips to trim off excess flower.
Stamp the greeting in Memento Black ink.
Cut a 4 x 5 ¼ piece of white cardstock and layer it to the inside panel. Decorate as desired.

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