Delightful Daisy Delight!
Happy Shopping! Continue reading
Happy Thursday, y’all – and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! It’s sketch week so be sure to hop thru all our blogs when you get done here and see how we all interpreted the challenge! 🙂
Speaking of – here it is:
I also played along with the Sunday Stamps color challenge…
We were to use at least 3 of the colors. I think, using the Orange Blossom stamp set and a little bit of Wood Textures DSP that I did that. And maybe a few more! Take a look-see:
I started with a panel of Whisper White card stock and stamped a bunch of the pretty images from the new Orange Blossom stamp set all over it. I used Flirty Flamingo for the large flowers – stamping it twice without re-inking. I also used Pear Pizzazz, So Saffron, Peekaboo Peach and Sweet Sugarplum. Once I had it stamped all over, I matted it on Sweet Sugarplum card stock. Continue reading
Mornin’, y’all! Like any three-day weekend, this one is flying by! Hope you’re having a good one so far.
So – I’ve got some good news and some bad new for y’all. Which one do you want first?
My choice is always to get the bad news out of the way first, so…
I know you’ve been watching the Delightful Daisy suite very closely – and no doubt are ready to order it just as soon as the catalog goes live next Thursday. But.
It turns out that the Daisy Punch has been even more wildly popular than Stampin’ Up! could have anticipated! And they anticipated high – believe me! Because of this, the current supply of Daisy Punches has sold out. To prevent this punch from being in a near-permanent backorder status for the first few months of the catalog, they’ve made the difficult decision to turn off ordering for the Daisy Punch beginning 1 June. They won’t be accepting any additional orders for this punch until their first shipment arrives the week of June 26 June. Ordering will be turned off for both the punch and the Daisy Delight Bundle (the Daisy Punch and coordinating stamp set).
So, even though the punch won’t be available for purchase on the 1st, it will be available later in June. I’ll let y’all know just as soon as I see that the Daisy Punch and Daisy Delight stamp set bundle are available for ordering again.
The good news is that there’s about 200 pages of aweosme-ness in the new catalog, so…I feel pretty confident that you’ll be able to find something that will strike your fancy while you wait for the Daisy Punch! I know I’ve got two packed pages of somethings to order on the first along with my share order!! Good thing I’ll be getting that 20% discount!!
My card for today uses the Eastern Medallions Thinlits and the Eastern Beauty stamp set. This card is what we’ll be making tonight on my Facebook Live video. I’ll be live at my normal time of 8pm Eastern on my Stamps-N-Lingers Facebook page. Take a look-see:
My inspiration for this card came from two places.
The first is this photo in The Card Concept challenge:
And I also drew some ideas from Rochelle Blok, the guest designer at the TGIF Challenges this week.
I do hope you’ll join me tonight!!

Finn-Fan Fix…
My puppy is a very smart boy.
Yesterday morning, in a fit of I-don’t-even-know, I mowed the arena. Wayne had gone fishing and I was just waiting for the horses to finish eating. Finny and I had done a few rounds already and I was bored with that. So…I mowed!
It wasn’t too hot, but it wasn’t cool, either. As I made my round and round and round on the mower, I realized Finny had left me.
So – I whistled him up and here he came. From the barn.
This happened a few times before I was finished mowing and went to put the mower away.
And look who I found!
Yep – chillaxin’ in the aisle, smack in front of the giant blowing fan.
He did rouse himself for a good game of play-in-the-hose while I rinsed off the mower.
No dummy is my Finny!

Happy Long-Weekend, y’all! Hope wherever you are will give you a lovely weekend to enjoy outdoors – and not surface-of-the-sun hot, either! And, please, while you’re preparing for your family picnics and parties on Monday – take a moment to remember the folks still fighting the good fight so we can enjoy our weekend in safety and peace.
So, the other day, when I made the sponged squares card, I actually got about 1/4 of a way thru the card I’m sharing with y’all today. I had a concept in my head, but…it really needed a few extra colors (remember the sponged window card was working a Green/Gray/White color challenge. You can see that one right here if you didn’t get to see it before.) I finally gave up on it – at some point in the day, you have to cut your losses and drive on. Or do your blog post at midnight! 😉
But – I held on to the squares I’d stamped and cut. I was using the Host-exclusive stamp set called Feathery Friends and a little of the new Fresh Florals DSP Stack. When I went to finish it, I added a few sentiment images from the new Tabs For Everything stamp set to make a pretty little card for y’all. Take a look-see:
This sketch, from the CAS-ual Fridays blogspot, is one I’d been intrigued with since I saw it.
And I figured I’d play along with the Stamp Ink Paper challenge, too. I mean – I’m a Card Maker. And this was my choice, so… 🙂
To begin, I stamped the pretty little flower from the Feathery Friends stamp set in Tranquil Tide ink on Whisper White and cut it with the smallest Stitched Shapes square die (that’s about 1 1/8″ square). I matted each square on a scalloped-edge square cut from a piece of Tranquil Tide paper in the new Fresh Florals DSP Stack. I did that 8 times in all!
I lightly colored each flower with my Powder Pink Stampin’ Writes Marker – be careful doing this, the Tranquil Tide ink will bleed! Then I used Liquid Glue to adhere each square to my Whisper White card front. I left the center square open.
The center, sentiment, square is cut from Whisper White with a second Stitched Shapes Framelits die. I stamped the little bird from Feathery Friends in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and colored it with my Tranquil Tide, Powder Pink and yes, Lemon-Lime Twist!!, Stampin’ Write Markers.
For my sentiment, I pulled a couple of words from the handy little Tabs For Everything (avail 1 June!) and stamped them in Tranquil Tide. This is a photopolymer set, so it was easy to get the words right where I wanted them.
I matted the square on a scalloped-edge square of the Tranquil Tide Fresh Florals DSP and popped it over the top of the other squares with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I adhered the panel to a Powder Pink mat and then wrapped a piece of Powder Pink 1/2″ Finely Woven Ribbon around it, securing it in the back with scotch tape. Then I used another short length to tie a “faux bow” – which is just a tight knot around the first piece of ribbon, with the ends trimmed nicely. And that was it for the card front.
On the inside, I stamped the flowers from Feathery Friends in Tranquil Tide a few times on a Whisper White panel. Then I colored them with the Powder Pink Stampin’ Write Marker.
I SNAILd the panel to a Powder Pink mat and into my Tranquil Tide card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!
My Whisper White Medium Envelope got more of the Feathery Friends flowers across the front…
…and then I added a little more Tranquil Tide Fresh Florals DSP to the envelope flap.
Et Voila! I really love this kind of card – with the grid of images. And I think this one, with the flowers from Feathery Friends, came out just right! I hope you like!

Finn-Fan Fix…
Our days are driven by routine – it’s a by-product of having animals. Dog goes out when I get up.
Dog comes in and has a nap.
We feed the horses at 8. Run the dog around. Play some bumper. He goes for a pond.
Let the horses out. Clean the stalls.
Back inside. Mom starts her work day on the computer.
Cats beg for food.
Dog eats cat food Mom throws for noisy cats.
Cat settles down for a snooze by the back door – especially when it’s a nice summer day and the door’s open.
That’s Leo. He’s eyeballing some chipmunks and a few birds.
Finn – checks out breakfast and usually decides he’s not hungry yet.
Time to join the cat in the morning snooze.
That’s our morning,
All the mornings!
Life is good.

Happy Thursday, y’all – and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! It’s sketch week and I know all our ladies have made some beautiful projects for you. Y’all be sure to hop thru all their blogs when you get done here! 🙂
Here’s our sketch…
I used kind of a plethora of goodies for this one – some available now and some next week! I played with the Colorful Seasons stamp set and the Seasonal Layers Thinlits. Added in a little Color Theory DSP. Those are the things coming next week. From the current catalog – and continuing next year – I used the Seaside TIEF and some High Tide. Take a look-see:
I started with a double layer mat – one in Berry Burst (avail 1 June) and the second in Dapper Denim. The bottom panel of the card front is a piece of Dapper Denim from the Color Theory DSP Stack. First I cut the scallops using the edgelit die in the Seasonal Layers Thinlits, then I ran it thru the Big Shot in the Seaside TIEF.
I stamped the sentiment from Colorful Seasons in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. And then I had to “fix” it with my Stampin’ Write Marker. If you make this card – don’t be like me! Cut the scallop. Stamp the sentiment. Then emboss it in the Seaside TIEF. Will be a much quicker route, I promise! 🙂
Next up, I made the top panel – starting with a piece of Crushed Curry paper from the Color Theory DSP. I used my 1 1/2″ Circle Punch to make a stencil and – on the bottom edge of the DSP, sponged a Calypso Coral “sun”. I pulled off the stencil and then continued with my almost-dry Sponge Dauber to add a “halo” of Calypso Coral around the circle.
Using the grasses and birds images from the High Tide stamp set, I added them in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.
I built the card front by first adding the stamped Crushed Curry panel with Liquid Glue. Then I added a strip of 5/8″ Burlap Ribbon – for the “beach” – with Liquid Glue. Finally, I added the “ocean”.
My chair is from the Seasonal Layers Thinlits. First I stamped the Hardwood background image in Berry Burst on a piece of Berry Burst card stock, then cut the chair with the die from the Seasonal Layers. I used Liquid Glue across the bottom of the chair and a few pieces of Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the chair and adhered it to the card front. And the card front was done!
On the inside, I made another “sun” with my 1 1/2″ Circle Punch stencil in Calypso Coral on a Whisper White panel. Then I added a second sentiment from Colorful Seasons in Tuxedo Black.
I double matted the panel on Dapper Denim and Berry Burst, then added it to my Basic Black card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!
My Whisper White Medium Envelope got another Calypso Coral sun and some High Tide birds and grasses on the front…
…and then I added a little more of the Dapper Denim paper from the Color Theory DSP to the envelope flap. Just to do a little something different, I embossed it in the Seaside TIEF before I added it to the flap!
Et Voila! I love the adirondack chair in the Seasonal Layers Thinlits, don’t you? I think all the pieces and parts came together to make a pretty little beachside sunset scene! Hope you like!

Finn-Fan Fix…will be back tomorrow! No FFF’s on Blog Hop Days! 🙂
Mornin’, y’all! So, Finn and I did go to the dog show yesterday. Well – we went to the park. Unfortunately, we went at 2 in the afternoon. And they were already done! So…we just walked around the park for a little while and came home! Finn had fun, though – he got to ride and sniff and….well, you know! 🙂
Once we got back, we went and did a little more work on the patio – including getting my vegetable gardens moved up.
So – I’ve got a couple of things to tell you about today.
First off – tonight’s Facebook Live video. I think we’ll make my Bits, Background and Butterflies card from the other day. I hope that you’ll join me!! Here’s a link to my FB page – I’ll go live at 7pm Eastern! This is an hour earlier than usual so I can attend our Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Meeting at 8!
So here’s the big thing I want to share!
I’ve got openings in my Online Host Clubs! One will be starting up in June and the other in July.
An Online Host Club is a great way to gather up all the Stampin’ Up! goodies that you want – and take advantage of the benefits of hosting a workshop! Except – you don’t have to actually host anything! I do the work – you get the benefit!!
Here’s how it works:
You sign up for a 6 month term and commit to:
Once 6 members have joined, a random draw will determine your host month. For “your” month, you’re guaranteed:
Here are some more benefits of joining my Host Clubs:
And – during your host month you can even gather up extra orders to increase your host rewards – just give your friends the host code for their orders. It’s that easy!
Want to join – and have 5 other friends that would want to play along, too? Well, you can start your own Exclusive Club!
So – I have two active clubs – one will start again on 1 June and one will start again on 1 July. I’ll fill the two clubs on a first-come-first-serve basis, starting with the June Club.
Don’t wait! There are 12 slots and those are already filling up! Let me know TODAY if you want one the remaining openings, okay?
Lastly – I still have a few Annual Catalog Share openings. Don’t delay – get in before they close!
Hope I’ll see you tonight at my Facebook Live video! Don’t forget I’ll be live an hour earlier than usual – at 7pm Eastern!!

Finn-Fan Fix…
One of the joys of summer as a kid was running thru the sprinkler and playing in the hose on a hot day.
Remember that? I do.
Well, Finn is no different from a human kid.
Okay – no thumbs. But everything else is exactly the same!!
He’ll pretty much do this for as long as someone will spray the hose.
He can catch some serious air, can’t he??
I still can’t believe I got that shot!!

I’ll cut the paper sheets into 6×12 so that you’ll be able to get 3 full A2 size card fronts from each sheet (except for the Petal Garden DSP Stack, Color Theory DSP Stack and the Wood Textures DSP Stack, you’ll get double sheets of those since they’re already precut at 6″x6″!). And your ribbon will come in a continuous 4 yd (or 2 yds for the Copper Trim) length!
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

Finn-Fan Fix…
I didn’t realize exactly what he was trying to tell me the other night with this look….
We were putting the girls out to spend the night stuffing their faces and tucking Bo in his bedroom with the rest of his dinner.
Finn pulls up in front of me…
When we got back in the house, I went back to writing a blog post and Wayne hit the shower.
Finn is with me in the living room while I type away. He climbs the steps next to my chair and puts his hand on my leg. And whines.
I say….no, Finn-y, we can’t do that, Mom’s gotta to work. Not sure why I refer to myself in the third person…?
Wayne hears me and says – come on in here, Finn!
Surprisingly….he goes! 👀😮
He was – apparently! – ready for bed. Too hot. Too tired. Just needed his house, his two mini-milk-bone go-to-bed treats, and the fan pointed on him.
By the time I got done, he was sawing lags.
Sometimes the great weariness just overcomes a kid and he just has to go to bed.
Know what I mean?

Mornin’ everyone! How goes your weekend? We here in GA are officially in “summer” mode. At least for the foreseeable future. A/C on. Sweatin’ just riding on the golf cart. You know…The sucky time of year in GA.
Tonight, if you’ll join me on my Facebook Live video at 8pm eastern, we’re going to take a closer look at the Eastern Palace suite and the bundles that you’re going to be able to order on Monday! And I’ll show you how to make today’s clean-and-simple card – you can do it with the goodies in the bundles. Take a look-see:
The layout for this one comes from the CAS(E) This Sketch challenge this week. Continue reading
Good morning, y’all! Welcome to the Autism Matters Blog Hop! A whole bunch of us joined together today to bring you guys some projects – our goal is to foster awareness about Autism and about the Autism Speaks organization! And – we’re also doing this as a fundraiser to benefit Autism Speaks. Scroll on down for more info about this organization. 🙂
While we didn’t have a sketch to work with, we’ve all made projects reflecting the colors of Autism…Red, Yellow and two shades of Blue! Wait until you see the talented folks on the blog hop – you’re gonna be so impressed with all their projects, I just know it! Check out this Fact About Autism and then scroll on down for my card!
Dogs have been shown to improve autistic children’s quality of life, independence, and safety. The presence of a trained dog can reduce aggressive behavior, calm the child, and serve as a link to the child’s community.
Finn SO knew that!!
I made my card using a cool little stamp set called Playful Backgrounds and the ever-beautiful Beautiful You. When I added some Sending Love DSP, here’s what I came up with. Take a look-see:
I’m not going to go into how I made this one – instead, I’ll invite you to come over to my Facebook page tonight at 8pm Eastern – when I’ll go live! If you like, gather up all the supplies and card cuts below, and we’ll make it together! Or – just watch me bumble-fuddle my way thru it! I’ll post the video on You Tube afterwards so that you can watch later.
Before you go on to the next Blog – please consider taking a moment to donate to Autism Speaks.
Autism Speaks is dedicated to promoting solutions, across the spectrum and throughout the lifespan, for the needs of individuals with autism and their families through advocacy and support; increasing understanding and acceptance of autism spectrum disorder; and advancing research into causes and better interventions for autism spectrum disorder and related conditions.
Autism Speaks enhances lives today and is accelerating a spectrum of solutions for tomorrow.
Please note: when you click below to donate, you’ll go to Amy Koenders’ page – I joined the fundraising effort under her! Just like I joined SU! under her – don’t fix what ain’t broke! 🙂
Thank you in advance for your support!
Now that you’ve seen my project, please take a little time to visit all the 2017 Autism Matters Blog Hoppers today! You can just click on the names below to go direct to all the blogs!
Enjoy the Hop and thank you again for your support of this worthy cause!
