Three Cards to Serve Others!

Happy Birthday / June 28, 2023 / Artistically Inked, Hope and Prayer, Translucent Florals

This Friday is my monthly card class for the residents at Mother of Good Counsel Home. I am always amazed at the joy and excitement they bring to class. I always try to create clean and simple stamping for them as they many of them have a hard time seeing. Sometimes I use current supplies and sometimes retired products. This month I am using a combination of both.

**Hope and Prayer -currently available**

My first card was created using Basic White and Pacific Point cardstock. While the Pacific Point is no longer available, you can always substitute Starry Sky.

**Translucent Florals-coming in September**

My second card was created using Basic White and Marina Mist cardstock. Again the Marina Mist is retired, but Balmy Blue or the new Boho Blossom would be a good substitute. I cropped the Basic White panel using the Deckled Rectangle Dies. I seriously love these dies. The Translucent Florals Bundle is coming in the Holiday mini catalog this September.

**Countryside Corners -currently available**

My last card was created using the Countryside Corners stamp set and some of the Countryside Inn Designer Series paper. I cut the designer series paper with one of the Countryside corner dies and then cut a larger one with some Starry Sky cardstock. The greeting is stamped with Starry Sky ink and is from Artistically Inked, which is available in the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.

I hope you will enjoy creating with some of these sets and find a way to share your stamping talents with others!

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

Think Out of the Box!

Thank You / June 27, 2023

Today I am sharing an out of the box way to create a card using the upcoming Translucent Florals Bundle. Yesterday I shared four cards using this bundle in my Make It Monday series. CLICK HERE if you missed that post. On the video, I mentioned turning my boo boo into a creative opportunity. And so here it is……..

This was a super simple card created with White and Cherry Cobbler cardstock , Cherry Cobbler ink, Timeless Arrangements stamp set and of course the Translucent Florals Bundle. Remember, this bundle will be available in the new Holiday mini coming September 1st. Until then, happy stamping!

Make it Monday Videos / June 26, 2023

Today I am excited to share with you a sneak peek into a new bundle that will be coming out in the next mini catalog this September. Translucent Bundles. As as demonstrator I attended a Creativity Now Virtual Stampin Event with many of my fellow stamping demonstrators. I am sharing with you the cards I created. The first card was created by Rosie, a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator from Australia. The event was a lot of fun.

We also got a sneak peek into a new Christmas set, One Horse Open Sleigh, that will be coming July 6 ! Be sure to check that out so you don’t miss getting a head start on your Christmas card making projects.

And now today’s Translucent Florals Bundle Video

Earthen Textures-Favorite Things Friday!

2 Comments / Thank You / June 23, 2023

One of my favorite things is stamping with friends and today, I am not only stamping with a very dear friend, but I am also borrowing her stamp set for my blog post! What could be better than that? Thanks Cherie!

At first I have to admit this bundle seemed a bit much for me, but after creating a few cards with it, it is growing on me. LOL Unfortunately the bundle is currently unavailable as the dies are on backorder. The stamp set is still available and as soon as the bundle is back in stock I will feature more cards for one of my Make it Monday tutorials, so stay tuned for that. But for today, I began my card creation a Boho Blossom card base. Boho Blossom is just one of 5 new In-Colors. Click here to check out the other colors.

Next I added a layer of Cajun Craze. I stamped the pots with Cajun Craze and Boho inks on a 3-3/4 x 5 piece of Basic White cardstock and in order to make them look layered, I stamped the small pot first and then masked it before stamping the taller pot. I then stamped the ferns with Old Olive and the flowers, in Boho Blossom. The thank you is from the bundle and stamped in Boho Blossom on a 3/8 x 2-3/8 panel of white. Just add a little bling and your card is complete.

I hope you have a fabulous Friday. Happy Stamping!

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

Welcome to InKing Royalty’s June Blog Hop! We are inspired by circles for this month’s hop and are excited to share our creations with you. We hope you love them! After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person on the list at the base of this post. Hopefully by the end of the day you will all be seeing spots. LOL

I am loving the new Stargazing Designer Series Paper pack. Not only is this paper pack on sale for 15% off, but many others as well, just CLICK HERE to see all your options. Plus, this is a great paper pack to feature circles. Use the paper as is or pull out your handy dandy Paper Snips and create a fun circle card like the one I created for today’s blog hop.

I just started snipping and layering for a upbeat thinking of you card. My greeting is from the new Layering Leaves stamp set featured in the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog. A few of the planets are ones printed on the edges of the paper. I layered them behind my largest planet and on the edges of my Lemon Lime Twist panel. CLICK HERE to for my Make it Monday tutorial where I created 2 cards using this Stargazing Designer Series paper in just 5 minutes!
