Rooted In Nature – You’re A Blessing In My Life
Happy Tuesday! For today’s card we’ll focus on the Rooted In Nature stamp and the Birch Background stamp. Although this card has orange tones, it is not as orange looking in person, but somehow it looks like that in the picture. As much as I tried adjusting the lighting in my editing software, I had no luck changing it to show you the true colors …
Harvest Hellos, Buffalo Check & Pinewood Planks
Today’s card features another card from my Giving Thanks Card Class. This time we have 4 retiring products in one card – Harvest Hellos, Buffalo Check, Country Home and the Pinewood Planks 3D Embossing Folder. Instead of posting spring and summer cards, here I am posting Fall cards, but I want to share these cards with you since these products are retiring and won’t be …
Country Home – Grateful, Thankful & Blessed
Have you seen the retiring products yet? I have about 12 projects that I haven’t posted yet with retiring stamps so for the next week or two I will focus on the stamps that are retiring with some in between posts that feature non-retiring products. Today we’ll start with the Country Home stamp – a card we made at my Giving Thanks Card Class. Card …
Everyday Jars Thankful Banner
Happy Thanksgiving! Hope you had a great day celebrating with friends and family. We had a nice time at my daughter’s home with 22 people. I did most of the cooking of main dishes and I must say, I am EXHAUSTED!! Thank goodness, I can stay home and relax while I put up my Christmas decorations – something I do every year the day after …

Happy World Card Making Day! Hope you’re finding time to stamp today. Today’s card features the Time of Year Host stamp. You can make quick and easy cards because the Thinking of You sentiment is the main focus.

Fall & Winter Sheltering Trees
Here’s another favorite stamp of mine from the Annual Catalog – Sheltering Tree. I love this stamp and how you can create all the seasons of the year. This card would make a great Christmas card by changing the sentiment – don’t you think? Here’s another card with a fall scene. You can also use some of the images to create something completely different. Click here …
Grateful For You
I am so thankful first to God for everything – good and bad times. He’s always good!! As I reflect I realize how blessed I am to have a wonderful family, friends and be able to do the things I love to do – direct a choir at my church and have a stamping business where I can create. I want to say a big …
For All Things – Hard Wood
For this card, I used the On Film Framelits and the Fall All Things stamp, I stamped the leaves, cut them and popped with Stampin’ Dimensionals. As Thanksgiving approaches here in the United States, it’s time to reflect and give thanks for all God has given us. Send out a card to those special people in your life or give it to your host or hostess on Thanksgiving …
For All Things
Here’s a card using the For All Things stamp set in the Holiday Catalog. As much as I tried to adjust the colors as I got this card ready for posting, I couldn’t get the larger banner and acorns the right shade of what the Blackberry Bliss ink really is – this card gives it a different shade of purple. This is a very …
Truly Grateful & Mystery Hostess
Don’t you love the colors and texture on this card? I love the richness of it. The background was made using a coffee filter! All you need is reinkers, a coffee filter, water and this is the result. Notice the dots on the card? That was made with the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set (love this set!!) This is one of the stamps on the 25% discount …
Truly Grateful
We made this card at my technique club using the Truly Grateful Stamp set with the masking/painter’s tape technique. I like the background look you get with this technique. You probably have some painter’s tape lying around from one of your painting projects at home. Ink up the tape, place it on the paper and remove and you get an instant background effect. You’ll get a …
Perfect Trio – Gratitude, Perfectly Preserved & Thoughts & Prayers
Have you ever gone apple picking? It’s fun climbing up the trees to get those apples you think are the best. I had never gone apple picking until 4 years ago when my daughter was in college and we went to visit her during family weekend. She went to school in a beautiful area in NY state where there are plenty of apples to pick – and not to …
