Good morning and happy Sunday, y’all! Have you done anything fun this weekend? We bought some mini blinds.
Yes – the glamour is real! 😉
My card today is a subliminal plea for cooler weather, I think! I mean – I’m ready to start complaining about being cold!! I used the pretty Harvest Hello stamp set – with the cool Rustic Pumpkin Dies (get these as a bundle with the stamp set and save yourself 10%!). Check it out!
Good morning and Happy Monday! Hope you had a great weekend and that the week ahead will be easy and also peasy for you!
My card today is quick. In fact, it’s so quick that I made three of them.
Okay – I did that because I made a Reel (aka a #short) out on Instragram for you and I borked the first go. Not the card – it’s WAY too easy to bork. The video. Half the silly thing was off to the side of the camera screen! 🤷♀️ Old dog. New tricks. But…I shall persevere. Heck – I learned to fly a C-5, didn’t I!? 😎😎😎
Anywho – the card features TWO free products! The first is a Sale-a-Bration stamp set called Amazing Phrasing. And the second is a Host-Exclusive Product from the Jul – Dec 2022 Mini Catalog called the Celebrate Everything DSP! Take a look-see:
Good morning, y’all – did you have a good weekend? Are you ready to be back at work? I’m not sure that’s even a thing… 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
I’ve got a card for you today that is just…plain…cute! It’s uses the sweet Sweet Songbirds bundle – that’s a punch-bundle, with the quick and handy Songbird Builder Punch. And a little Painted Christmas DSP – for a NOT-Christmas Card – plus the pretty Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder. 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 beautiful color 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!
When I saw the colors this week I knew right away that I was going to pull out the Nature’s Prints bundle and the Sun Prints DSP. And so…I did! 🙂 Take a look-see:
And here’s the color challenge! I used all but the Night of Navy! 😎
I started using the white Pearlized Enamel Effects to “color” a Textural Element. I used a little extra “paint” at the ends where the berries are, to create a more rounded appearance. I set the element aside to dry while I worked on the rest of the card!
Next up, I stamped the fern image from the Nature’s Bundle stamp set in Starry Sky ink all over a Starry Sky panel. Then I embossed the panel in the cool Fern 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Gray Granite mat for the card front.
I used the next-to-largest square Stylish Shapes die to cut a piece of plain Lovely Layers 3 3/4″ x 5″ Vellum and then adhered it to the card front with Glue Dots.
On a piece of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the Nature’s Prints fern in Starry Sky and the wildflower leaves in Pacific Point. Then I cut them both out with their matching dies in the bundled Natural Prints die set.
I used the leaves dies in the Natural Prints die set to cut out three long leaves from Gray Granite cardstock, and five smaller leaves from Starry Sky 2022-2024 In Color Glimmer Paper.
I double checked that the Pearlized Enamel Paint was dry on the Textural Element and started creating the collage.
I adhered all the die cuts and the Textural Element to the card front with Liquid Glue.
With everything in place, I used a strip of Stampin’ Seal + to adhere a loop-de-doop of Gray Granite 1/4″ Shimmer Ribbon.
I stamped the Nature’s Prints sentiment in Starry Sky on a piece of Basic White and cut it out with the third-from-smallest Stylish Shapes die.
I popped the sentiment onto the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals, adhered some Starry Sky 2022-2024 In Color Matte Dots and the card front was done!
On the inside, I stamped a second sentiment from Nature’s Prints in Starry Sky on a piece of Basic White. Then, in stamped-off-once Pacific Point, I stamped the Nature’s Prints frond. I stamped it upside down – and have been…re-thinking that design choice since I made the card! 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️ If you make this card – stamp it upside right or downside wrong, whichever you prefer! 🙂 I added a Starry Sky 2022-2024 In Color Matte Dot next to the sentiment
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Gray Granite mat and into my Thick Basic White card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done.
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the Pacific Point frond a few times on the front…
…and a little of the Sun Prints DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! Boy – I’ve been so caught up in new goodies from the Jul – Dec 2022 Mini that I’d sort of lost track of this beautiful Nature’s Prints stamp set and bundled Natural Prints dies. I love how the elements come together and they’re pretty amazing with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder, don’t you think?!?
I hope you like!

Hello and happy Tuesday. Aren’t you glad I let you know each morning WHAT day it is? Believe me – it’s a labor of love – I’m not going to tell you how long it sometimes takes me each morning for ME to remember what day it is! 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
My card today is not a Christmas card – yeah! Instead – it’s a sweet little number to just send to a friend who needs a hug. I used the Splendid Thoughts stamp set and bundled Splendid Stems dies. And the pretty Painted Posies 3D Embossing Folder. Take a look-see:
Well. Here we are again – the work week is commencing! If that means YOU have to go to work today – I hope you have a great day! 🙂
My card today uses the Soft Seedlings stamp set – again – sorry! – and some Rustic Harvest DSP. You’ll also find some texture from the cool Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder (one of my faves!). Take a look-see:
Good morning good morning and welcome to the brink of the weekend! Do you have some fun plans? We’re going to do a little tidying this weekend – Wayne doesn’t know it yet and it’s likely to be traumatic (Goodwill is involved and that just hurts him to his core). So…think good thoughts for him making it thru a little…purging! 😉
I’ve got a cool little card for you today – I’d call it clean-and-simple! Since we didn’t get a chance to make it together yesterday, I took a minute (literally!) to put together a short little video on how to make it – the link will be at the end!
I used the Brightest Beauty stamp set to create a very summer-y card (as opposed to the more Fall-like card I made with it before – you can see THAT one right here!). And I pulled out the amazing Fabulous Frames die set (an a la carte set from the Annual Catalog), too. Take a look-see:
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 Sail bundle came to mind right away! And I pulled some Hues of Happiness DSP for an ocean-y feel. 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:
Happy Happy 4th of July, y’all! Today is a day to celebrate our Country – and the Freedoms we have – but…I’m grateful every day to live here. We’ve got some problems. We’re far from perfect. But this is a great country and – after seeing a lot of them in my travels – for me it is the GREATEST there is. And I’m proud to be an American! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 (cue Lee Greenwood! 😎)
Now – my card today probably ought to be red-white-and-blue. But…it’s not! It’s black and white and pink! And – it sports some very happy Hippest Hippos dancing in a Perfectly Penciled flower-dy field! Take a look-see:
