Good morning and happy FriYAY!!! We’re on the cusp of the weekend – and WE are on the cusp of our trip! I think we’re getting thru the to-do list and…barring the Uber driver not being able to find us on Monday morning at the crack of dawn…we’ll be on our way soon!!
Today’s card is a fun one – all ready for summer fruits and fun! It’s from the Filled With Sweetness bundle and the Paradise Garden Hybrid Embossing Folder – BOTH current Online Exclusives available right now! 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!
The colors screamed NATURE WALK DSP to me so – I didn’t fight it – I leaned into it and also pulled out the Nature’s Symphony Bundle! It wasn’t exactly a hardship – I LOVE this bundle and DSP (and – the bundle is in the new May-Aug 2026 Catalog, too – BOOM)! 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 theme 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!
We’ve got a pretty new stamp set coming on 5 May in the May 2026 Online Exclusives – it’s called Natural Artistry. It’s a stand-alone set – no dies, no suite – just…gorgeous stamped images and a few really nice sentiments. I used it – and the Paradise Garden Hybrid Embossing Folder – to make today’s pretty thank you card. Take a look-see:
Good morning and happy Fri-YAY! It’s been one of those weeks where I am forgetting what day it is – but…I DID check the calendar and today IS Friday! So – I hope you have a great one – and have something fun planned for the weekend!
If part of your plans include getting in your craft room – maybe you’ll make this one! It’s a clean and easy card – featuring tons of embossed texture and the Pop-Up Petals bundle flowers! Take a look-see:
Happy Monday, y’all! We’re enjoying a few days of sun and pretty weather – cool enough for a jacket but…not bad at all! We’ve got the barn opened all the way back up – Cady is too hot again – there’s no middle ground for her in the winter – she’s comfortable (when we have our covers on) or sweating (when our toes, fingers and noses aren’t frozen!). 🤷♀️
My card today is a CASE of a pretty card I saw on Pinterest – from Australian demonstrator Nancy Hoetker! I loved it, so…did my own take on it. It features two of my favorite Online Exclusives – the Friendly Foliage bundle and Brushed With Beauty DSP. Take a look-see:
Good morning and happy Monday! Well – the cold hit yesterday – with a windy blast of arctic air. So – the barn is all closed up – the plants in the garage – a heated water bucket hung on the outside gate so I don’t have to break ice in the trough in the morning. It’s going to be 19 – with a wind chill down to I-don’t-even-know. I can see all y’all northerners rolling yer eyes. 🙄 But – this is the SOUTH! So…that’s way too danged cold for this kid!
As I was looking at my list of thank-you’s that I need to send, I realized that this would be a good time to make a card that would easily make mulitples. I hit on the Thanking You stamp from the Annual Catalog and paired it with a tree from the Pine Tree Trimmings set. Add a double frame and…boom! Take a look-see:
Good morning, y’all! It’s Monday and time to start thinking about the work week! Our friends left at the crack-of-way-too-early to get across Atlanta before the “real” traffic got going! Now it’s time to tidy the house back up and get things packed for the retreat! Whoo-hoo!
Today’s card is perfect for busy people – it’s the PERFECT choice for making multiples, too! It uses the Seasonal Tags stamp set – and cardstock and ink. And – your Paper Trimmer! 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 theme 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!
Now – the card I made today is totally in line with the challenge and I am, frankly, amazed that I actually made it! It’s all in Secret Sea and white and uses the beautiful Light & Wonder bundle with a smidge of coordinating Lights of Aurora DSP! Take a look-see:
Happy middle-of-the-weekend, ya’ll! Hope you’re getting stuff done (if that was your plan) or…NOT (if THAT was your plan!). We didn’t do much yesterday – I DID get my flu shot, though, so….go me! 🤷♀️. And THIS afternoon I’ll be on our monthly Amy’s Inkin’ Krew team meeting and this is craft-along month! Yeah for fun projects with friends!
My card today is one that is quick and easy – it features the fun Stay Warm set – one of our Reversibles stamp sets! I added a sentiment – and a couple of fun little die-cuts – from the Snowy Delights bundle. They’re both from the Sep-Dec 2025 Mini Catalog! And I pulled out one of my faves from the Online Exclusives – the Timeless Plaid 6″ x 6″ DSP! Take a look-see:
Happy Happy Hawwwmwp Day, y’all! Hope your week is going well – but…if it’s not…rest easy in the knowledge that we’re over the hump and headed into the weekend! Yeah!
Now – if you’ve been following me for a while, you know that my trip to Maui a few years ago made a HUGE impression on me. I love it there – it IS my Happy Place! So – when I saw the new stamp set with that name AND with a beachy theme – I was 100% IN. I used it today to make a clean and simple birthday card. Take a look-see:
