Quick and Easy Card Featuring Adorable Owls Stamp Set - SAB23

Hello my crafty friends!! The simple stamping challenge for February is stamps, ink and paper. Today’s card features the free Adorable Owls Stamp Set – free with purchase during Sale-A-Bration. The background images of the tree branches and rows of flowers are from the Garden Birdhouse stamp set. Lots of opportunities for coloring here.

The card base is a basic style (full sheet of 8 ½" x 11” cardstock, 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 first layer measures 4” x 5 1/4" for the mat, and the top layer measures 3 3/4" x 5” for stamping. I think you may be able to see that the flying owl was fussy cut and popped up. The cloud in the upper right corner is the cloud punch, but would be easy enough to fussy cut in a shape to fit your sentiment.

RANDOM THOUGHTS:  If you attended my January workshop, you were able to swap out the dimensionals to pop up the flying owl with a plastic spring to create a fun wobbly project!

I (HEART):  Coloring these super cute owls. I think I like the bow tie guy the best. Which one is your favorite? 😊 

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!!

Quick and Easy Cards Featuring Country Bouquet Punch and Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper

Hello my crafty friends!! This past weekend was my first workshop of 2023 and, of course, the theme was Valentine’s Day so everyone is prepared for February 14. We had a blast getting together again after a very, very long break. The new January-April Mini Catalog has a beautiful group of product, Country Floral Lane Suite Collection, for your special someone -- you really must check it out. For today’s card, I chose the Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper and coordinating County Bouquet Punch. Here’s a collage of cards I created; same simple design concept only changing up the sentiment and the color scheme.

The card base is a basic style (full sheet of 8 ½" x 11” cardstock, 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 first layer measures 4” x 5 1/4", then stagger coordinating pieces measuring 3 1/4" x 4 1/4" and 3” x 4”. Arrange the punched elements around a 1/2" strip for the sentiment. Yours is beautiful too, I am sure.

RANDOM THOUGHTS:  Love the coordination of this suite of products!

I (HEART):  The cute shape of these hearts. What is your favorite? 😊 

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.
