Stampin’ UP! Faux Embossed Perfectly Painterly Pears Hello Card

Happy Monday, y’all!  Hope you had a great weekend!  There’s only two more weeks of August so…I am REALLY hoping we’re going to cool off soon!  I mean – I’m not holding my breath or anything, but…a girl can hope.  Even an old one! 😉

My card today showcases a favorite of…well…everybody!  The Painterly Pears suite from the Online Exclusives!  I did a little faux embossing and showcased the Painterly Pears DSP!  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Shadowed Delightful Corners in Bloom Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good morning, y’all!  It’s Thursday – which means it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop.  We’ve got a 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!

I pulled from three places for this card today!  The Everyday Arches Die set – an Online Exclusive – perfectly frames the fun Shadowed Shapes image and sentiment (Jan-Apr 2025 Mini).  Floral Delight DSP (also from the Mini) is a great starting point and the Corner in Bloom stamp set (Sale-a-Bration freebie) – finishes it off!  Whew!  But – it all comes together like it was…meant to be!  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Kraft Sweet Notes of Nature Hello Card with Video Tutorial

Happy Sunday, y’all!  Hope your weekend is going well!  I actually got some grocery shopping done yesterday – me and about a million other folks!  What WAS I thinking going to Sam’s and Costco on Saturday?!? 😳🤦‍♀️. Guess I was thinking I did NOT want to go TODAY!!

My card today is one that eased me right back into my wheelhouse – torn edges, foliage, vintage-y layers, bows and bling.  I used the Notes of Nature bundle – one of my fave things ever! – and some Nature’s Sweetness Specialty DSP.  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Monochrome Inked & Tiled Botanicals Just a Note Card

Good morning, y’all!  Hope you had a great weekend.  We stayed pretty close to home – well, actually, we stayed AT home! 😂😂 It was too hot to really get too excited about doing anything that involved going outside.  We DID do a little gardening on Saturday morning – tomatoes and squash needed to be supported so…needs must, right?!?

My card today is one that isn’t a normal “Mary” card – in that it’s a Clean and Simple card.  It IS a Mary card in that it uses one of my favorite stamp sets – the Inked & Tiled set – and the coordinating Inked Botanicals 6″ x 6″ DSP.  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Vintage Fond of Autumn Bouquet with Video Tutorial

Good morning, y’all!  Hope the weekend is shaping up to be a good one for you!  We’re having friends over this evening – including the totes adorbs Juliette – who I suspect is growing like a weed!  We’re having pizza – which I also suspect SHE won’t want to eat much of…  or…you know…any! 🙂

My card today has all the things I love.  Flowers.  Fall.  Vintage-izing.  Layers layers and layers!! It uses the Fond of Autumn stamp set and bundled Autumn Bouquet Dies.  The vintag-i-fication comes from the cool Stripes 3D Embossing Folder – and a sponge dauber.  Tale a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Go To Greetings Under a Willow Tree

Good Monday morning!  I hope your weekend was great and that you got a lot of your “to-do” lists done.  Or..NOT – if that was your plan to start with!

We crashed HARD – again! – last night – Saturday was a long day and Sunday, too, for that matter!  And that included the Man!  He finally found his lick and decided he doesn’t mind traveling and hotels.  Especially ones with cool tile floors and a blower thing that he can stand right in front of and have cold air blast his face!  He even decided he was okay with the elevator!  He IS tired – finally!  On Saturday, he was up and down every time we slowed down – for much of the ride to Huntsville.  On Sunday, he was sacked out and sound asleep in the car within 10 minutes of hitting the road! LOL

My card today features a bunny.  Under a Willow Tree.  This little bunya is saying howdy with one of the cool Go To Greetings sentiments!  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 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 I thought of the pretty Highland Heather paper in the Hand-Penned DSP, so that became the foundation for my card today!  I added some flowers, leaves and a sentiment from the cool Boughs & Blossoms Bundle.  Take a look-see:
