With Sympathy-Artistically Inked

Here is a card we created at stamp camp this month. I love the soft look of Mint Macaron and cannot wait to use other colors with this set. I am sure you will be seeing more of it in the future.

If you like this card, we created three other cards at stamp camp this month and it is not too late to place a $25 order and get the pdf instructions w/photos free.

If you live in the St. Louis area, stamp camp in person could be an option for you. Check out details on my Events Calendar!

The background of this card was created using the stamps from the bundle, but did you know this bundle has paper to match it? How sweet is that!

Vine Design Framed Thank You

Today’s card features the Vine Design Bundle and the Scalloped Contours Dies. I combined two of the dies to create a frame and added it on top of the fancy oval die in the Vine Design Bundle. The Bermuda Bay and Basic Black are perfectly paired to create an elegant thank you card.

The Bermuda Bay layer on top of the card base is dry embossing using the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine with the Tasteful Textile 3-D Embossing folder. The “Thanks” is from the new Artistically Inked stamp set. I stamped it on Bermuda Bay cardstock in Memento Black ink and cut it out using my Paper Snips.

The Vine Design Bundle will be retiring at the end of this month! Just sayin! Don’t forget about the FREE SHIPPING offer for orders over $50-this Thursday only!

Do Not Be Afraid! Sunday Wisdom

Happy Father’s Day! I am blessed that my Dad is still in my life and living about 25 minutes from me. The gospel for today is perfect for Father’s Day because who is better than our earthly Father and our heavenly Father at calming all our fears! It is both our earthly and heavenly Father who calms our anxieties.

Sometimes the storms of life can be overwhelming, but that is precisely when we need to trust in our Lord and Savior because He is always in the boat with us. He is always watching over us.

When we rely on our own strength or understanding to do things our way, we can only do so much. But Jesus’ power is limitless. Sure sometimes things don’t work out easily or ever, for what we consider to be the best, but that does not mean that Jesus has abandoned us. He always cares about us and is always in the boat with us, no matter how rough the storm.

Sometimes Jesus does calm the storms in our lives and other times He calms us, giving us the strength to bear our burdens and carry our crosses. When we trust and when we have faith, then we are filled with a calming peace, even in the toughest of times. Father in heaven, thank you for sending your Only Begotten Son to us.

Jesus I trust in you!
