Quick and Easy Card featuring Love For You Stamp Set for Valentine’s Day

Hello my crafty friends!! I could not resist this beautiful sentiment stamp set, Love For You, in the new mini catalog. The coordinating dies provide an assist for a wide variety of phrases.

The card base is Basic White Cardstock (full sheet of 8 ½" x 11”, cut in half at 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"), then fold and burnish the edge for a crisp, side fold A2 card. The background layer is Granny Apple Green, cut 4” x 5 1/4". The top panel is 3 3/4" square, then the four (4) square pieces, cut 1 3/4" square, are evenly spaced in a window-pane format. The squares are cut from the coordinating (and beautiful) Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper. The sentiment is stamped in Granny Apple Green ink, die cut and arranged across the panel.

RANDOM THOUGHTS:  This may look somewhat complicated, but trust me it is really quite simple.

I (HEART):  The super, super cute die cut heart in Granny Apple Green. What is your favorite? 😊

Stamp On!!

Holiday Card 2022 Wrap Up

Hello my crafty friends!! It was truly crunch time for finishing up my holiday cards this year. Finished in the ‘Nick’ of time!! I took a break from blogging over the holidays so I wanted to share a couple of my favorites.


You may remember that I chose the Cottage Wreaths stamp set/bundle for my holiday cards. After much debate, I finally settled on traditional red and green colors. For bling, I created the bows from the Red and White Glitter Paper and the holly from the Gold Holly Leaves and red rhinestones.


This fun and whimsy card features one of the gnomes from the retired Kindest Gnomes stamp set. The candy cane is from the November Paper Pumpkin Kit, From the North Pole, and the base sentiment is from the October Paper Pumpkin Kit, Ho Ho Ho.

RANDOM THOUGHTS:  To speed up the card-making process, I stamped and die cut or punched the elements and created small stacks for putting the cards together in a piece work fashion. The only coloring was the gnomes - after I stamped and die cut them, I colored them using SU Blends while watching TV!!

I (HEART):  Although a bit of a ‘project,’ I love the gnomes. I hope you do not miss out on the gnomes. 😊 

Thank you for stopping by my blog today! I hope my project has inspired your creativity. I would love to see what you have created. Feel free to leave a positive comment below with a trail to find you so I can find your creations out on the "www" - I look forward to it.

Stamp On!!
