Announcing the Curvy Celebration Bundle!

2 Comments / Sales and Announcements, Thinking of You / October 30, 2020

Good morning crafters and stampers. I am so excited to announce that the Curvy Celebration bundle is coming soon! Celebrate with curvy stamps, dies and more! Designed for a variety of special occasions, the Quite Curvy Variety Bundle includes everything you need to create one-of-a-kind crafts. This bundle will be available for purchase from November 3rd through January 4th! As a demonstrator, I was allowed to pre-order this set and it has been so much fun creating new and interesting cards. This set is very versatile and will keep you busy for hours, maybe even days!

For today’s card I started with a Just Jade card base and pulled in the Christmas Flowers from the 6 x6 Flowers for All Seasons Designer Series Paper, 3 x 5 1/4. Using the curvy dies, I cut out a piece of Flirty Flamingo measuring 4 x 5 1/4. I stamped the sentiment from the bundle in Just Jade ink and added some Just Jade sprigs. I fussy cut one of the Christmas flowers with my Paper Snips and for a finishing touch added three gold metallic pearls. It is a simple card to let others know you are thinking about them, especially during this time of the year.

**Curvy Celebration Bundle coming November 3rd.**

I hope you enjoyed this card. The bundle will be available for purchase beginning November 3rd, everything else is available now. Don’t forget to apply the host code: 4SFDFVEX. Feel free to leave a comment, feedback is always appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. I hope you will pop by tomorrow for some more curvy designs. Stamping Hugs and Blessings, Renae

2 Comments / Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature, Thank You / October 29, 2020

My card today does not use the typical Thanksgiving Holiday colors but was a color challenge I did with Brian King this past summer using So Saffron, Flirty Flamingo and Cinnamon Cider. While the colors are not traditional, the sentiment of feeling blessed is just perfect for this time of year.

Brian is so great with color combos, but this was actually my first ever color challenge and I may have cheated a bit and threw in some green, who knew! I started with a So Saffron card base and added a layer of Cinnamon Cider 4 x 5 1/4. The Flirty Flamingo Layer is cut at 4 5/8 x 3 3/8 and I stamped the rose from To a Wild Rose set on Whisper White using our Flirty Flamingo ink. Two of the roses are stamped directly on the piece of Whisper White and the one in the middle is cut out using the rose die from the bundle.

I stamped the Blessed sentiment in memento black and added some basic jeweled rhinestones. I also decided to decorate the inside of the card with a strip of all the colors in the challenge and some more rhinestones. The leaves are stamped with Old Olive ink and the sentiment is also from the To A Wild Rose set.

I hope you liked this card and feel inspired to use this color combo from Brian King to create something beautiful today. Thanks for stopping by. I hope you will leave a comment and stop back tomorrow for some more crafty cards! Stamping Hugs and Blessings, Renae.

Christmas Begins with Christ!

Christmas 2020 / October 28, 2020 / Designer Series Paper, Feels Like Frost, Metallic Ribbon, Stampin Cut and Emboss, Stitched Circle Die, Winter Snow Folder

I hope you all are gathering your stamping supplies to create beautiful Christmas Cards to send out to your friends and loved ones. This year with all that has gone on in our world, it is nice to bring a little holiday joy by creating hand-stamped cards. My card today is again using the Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper, but instead of the photo side, I opted to use the beautiful silver patterned side to create this elegantly layered card. I absolutely love the way it turned out! I began with a Whisper White card base and added a 4 x 5 1/4″ layer of smoky slate. To that added a Whisper White layer that I embossed with the new Winter Snow Embossing Folder. I cut a 3 x 5 piece of the Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper and added it to some smoky slate measuring 3 1/4 x 4 1/4.

The sentiment from For Unto Us is stamped in Smoky Slate ink on Whisper White and cut using the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine with the Stitched Circle Dies and popped with the Stampin’ Dimensionals. Around the layer of Smoky Slate and Feels Like Frost Designer Series layer I tied some Silver Metallic Edge ribbon.

This was a fun card to create and while it took a little more than two minutes to create, I feel the extra time and labor was worth it! Thanks for stopping by today! Feel free to leave a comment. I hope you will join me again tomorrow for another fabulous card surprise! Stamping Hugs and Blessings, Renae.

Sharing A Season of Miracles

Christmas 2020 / October 27, 2020 / Designer Series Paper, Feels Like Frost, For Unto Us, In-Colors, Night of Navy, Seaside Spray

Glory, wonder and miracles is what the Holiday seasons are all about and if you are like me than you love the anticipation of Thanksgiving and Christmas. I may not be quite ready for our first snow, but I do love fireplace weather, thinking about pumpkin pie and of’ course making my Christmas shopping list. Today’s simple card is again using the Feels Like Frost 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper and a little rhinestone bling.

I started with a card base using one of our In-colors, Seaside Spray. I love the softness of this color and to me it reflect the freshly fallen snow in the paper. For a little bolder contrast I stamped the greeting in Night of Navy ink and mounted it on a rectangle of some Whisper White cardstock, then layered that on top of some Seaside Spray measuring 7/8″x 4 7/8″. The greeting is from the For Unto Us set.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope this card inspires you to create something beautiful today. Stop by tomorrow for a little more challenging card using the silver patterned side of the Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper.

First Snow begins with Feels like Frost!

Christmas 2020 / October 26, 2020 / Christmas, Designer Series Paper, For Unto Us, Night of Navy, Simple Card

Today’s card was created using the Feels Like Frost 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper. I love this beautiful printed paper and how easy it is to create an elegant card in just a few minutes. I began with a Night of Navy card base and added a 4 x 5 1/4 piece of the Feels Like Frost paper, stamped the greeting from the For Unto Us stamp set in Night of Navy ink and added a little bling using our basic jeweled rhinestones. It truly was that simple.

One tip to keep in mind when using this printed paper is to pay attention to the pattern or image when you cut so the image is in the correct orientation. This was such a simple card and it literally took only a few minutes to create. I think the hardest part was trying to decide which sentiment to use from the For Unto Us set because I love them all. LOL

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you will join me tomorrow for another super simple creation using our Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper. Feel free to leave a comment, I’d love to know what you think! Stamping Hugs and Blessings, Renae.
