Good morning, y’all – welcome to another edition of the Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team blog hop! Each month we make projects centered around a theme – and this month our theme is “Celebrate Summer”! We can interpret that any way we want – so…be sure to check and see everyone’s projects – we’ve got a bunch of talented ladies hopping with us this month!
When we were on Maui last “summer” – we went on a sail-catamaran for our snorkelling trip and it. Was….WONDERFUL! So…when I saw the theme – the Let’s Set Sailbundle came to mind right away! And I pulled some Hues of Happiness DSP for an ocean-y feel. Take a look-see:
Good Monday morning, y’all! The work week is back and I’m sorry! Hopefully you had a GREAT weekend and you’re ready to hit it for five days until you make it to the NEXT weekend! 🙂
My card today is all about Halloween. Yes – it’s coming. I know. Hard to believe – but…it’s just a matter of time – days? – before you’ll start to see the Halloween decorations in the store. It’s sorta ridiculous, but…there you go! So…if you can’t beat ’em – might as well get a head start on it, huh? I’ve used the Scary Cuteand Bewitching Bundles – and some Celebrate Everything DSP. Take a look-see:
Good morning and Happy Sunday from soggy Georgia! We’re for sure in the Monsoon season here in the south. Like…torrential rains – and then SAUNA! Yikes! We took all the paper shares to the post office this morning in a total downpour – but…they’re in the mail! And – WE were wet but THEY were NOT! Whoo-hoo!!
Speaking of – if you’re experiencing regret or FOMO that you didn’t buy a share – let me know! I cut a few extra Single Shares while I was at it if you’d like one. Drop me a line at stamps-n-lingers@comcast.net!
Now, my card today doesn’t use any DSP from the Jul – Dec 2022 Mini. Instead – it gets all its fun from…the Candy Canes dies from the mini and the totally-a-flyover stand-alone die set called Rugged Icons from the Annual Catalog! The wonderful workhorse Charming Sentiments bundle provides the sentiment and – on the inside – go camping in the woods with the Campology set. Take a look-see:
Happy Happy Saturday! We have water! Like… everywhere! In the shower and the kitchen and the garden! Ahhhh – water!! Finally have a clean kitchen – and clean dishes (that was getting to be a problem!) and clean clothes!! Whoo-hooo! Now…the television remains a problem but…one thing at a time. For now? Power – check. Air Conditioning – check. Water – check check and CHECK!! 🙂
Oh – and if you’re waiting on shares – we’re headed to the Post Office this morning so – they should start to hit your mailboxes in a few days! 🙂
Tonight I’m planning to go live on my Stamps-N-Lingers YouTube channel at 7pm Eastern- I’ve got a cool masculine card for you that uses a little paper piecing and…a new die set from the Jul – Dec 2022 Mini Catalog. Here’s a sneaky peek!

Shares are cut and headed out the door!
Thanks to the MSD (Moral Support Dog)…
…who helped me while I chopped! 🙂
And – even more so…my SPE (Shares Packer Extraordinaire!).
And that was AFTER spending all day getting the water back on!
Hey y’all – just a reminder that we’ve got TWO big specials that are ending tonight. Or… you know – tomorrow morning when I get up and have a cup of coffee in me!
Happy happy Friday, y’all! It’s a good day here – the new well system is in and should be operational by the end of the day. So…only this last day with no water! Whoo-hoo!
Before we kick off – remember that TWO things are ending today! Besides our water problem, that is!
First – my Double Peppermints ordering special on orders over $100 ends tonight! And Second – my Special Bundles from the new Jul – Dec 2022 Mini Catalog will be going away tonight, too. So…TWO last chance specials Check it all out down below!
Now. My card today features the Sunkissed stamp set – which will have you dreaming of Maui! I set the tropical feel with the Tropical Hideaway background stamp and then…add a Charming Sentiments sentiment. Take a look-see:
Good morning – again! I’ve got a second card for you today, cuz…I was really honored to be selected as a Guest Designer over on one of my fave challenges – the Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge! So…if you were here looking for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop and the card I shared for IT – here ’tis! 🙂
The elements of the challenge worked well for a sympathy card I had in my head, so…I pulled out the Mountain Air stamp set from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog and then used the cool Aspen Tree Dies, with a Very Best Occasionssentiment, to complete the card. Take a look-see:
Good morning, y’all! It’s Thursday – which means it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! We’ve got a fun sketch challenge to work with and I’m excited to see what everyone brings to the table – I just know you’re going to see a ton of awesome-ness on the hop today!
The bundle I used for today’s card – the Brightest Beauty Bundle – is another one in the Jul – Dec 2022 Mini Catalog…that you might have missed! I used it with the cool Hive 3D Embossing Folder and gorgeous Rustic Harvest DSP. Take a look-see:
Good morning and Happy Hawwwmp Day, y’all! We’re having a bit of a….week. Epic storm on Monday night – and lightning hit our well house. And set it on fire. And knocked out the water. And scared me sorta silly! 😳😳😳 So – we spent last night at a hotel and may be doing the same tonight. We DO have AC (thank you God) but…no water. In July. In Georgia. Nope nope nope. This spoiled first-worlder NEEDS her shower! 😉
In the midst of the chaos – while waiting for one contractor after another to come assess the damage and give us estimates (both of the $$ and -more importantly the TIMELINE!) I put together a soft and pretty Christmas card for you! It showcases the Peace To You stamp set and a teensy snowflake image from the Christmas Lights stamp set. Take a look-see:
Good morning good morning! It’s the day after the 4th and I hope you and your critters had a fun and non-scary evening! We spent the day getting provisions for the girls – well, putting provisions on a Rain Check!! – and buying a few garden fence panels to take care of a little problem we have at the fountain by the barn. And two more perennials (WAYNE’S idea – not mine!!). So…a good quiet day!
I’ve got one of my VERY favorite fun folds for you today – the venerable side-fold. It doesn’t have an extra easel. It’s not an upside down and sideways book card with a twist. Just a good, solid side-fold card! And – it really lets the new Cottage Wreaths bundle and coordinating Gingham Cottage DSP shine. Take a look-see:
