Beautiful Scenery Father's Day Card

 Hello & Happy Saturday, Friends!

Today I have another Father's Day card to show you made with the Relaxing Waterside suite from the new 2026 May-August Catalog! I personally love the different prints in this pack of paper...so many to choose from!

Card Details:

Stamps: Relaxing Waterside

Ink: Misty Moonlight

Cardstock: Misty Moonlight, Basic White, Waterside Retreat DSP

Accessories: Stylish Shapes Dies, Strawberries & Dots (Online Exclusives), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

This card uses 3 different prints from the pack of Waterside Retreat DSP. 

It displays those 3 patterns nicely and made for a great card! I don't know who designed this paper but WOW, it's beautiful!

Today, Shawn went up to the Juniata River to go fishing.

He's been waiting to go and finally we have some nice weather to do so!

I'm just putzing around the house looking for something to do. I'm still giving my hands a nice long rest from cardmaking & stamping for now. I got a puzzle out the other day but never started it. Hope you have some fun plans for today!

It has coordinating dies and some beautiful paper in the suite. I finally broke into my DSP and created some cards for Father's Day...

Lovely Arrangements Birthday

 Hello & Happy Monday, Friends!

Hope you had a nice weekend! It sure was a hot one!

Today we are switching things up instead of masculine/Father's Day cards we are doing a floral card. I pulled out the Lovely Arrangements bundle and just started playing...

Card Details:

Stamps: Lovely Arrangements (Online Exclusives)

Ink: Secret Sea, Old Olive

Cardstock: Crumb Cake, Cloud Cover, Secret Sea, Old Olive, Basic White, Lovely Blossoms DSP (Online Exclusives)

Accessories: Lovely Blossoms Dies (Online Exclusives), Stylish Shapes Dies, Gathering Leaves EF (retired), Cloud Cover Ribbon (Online Exclusives), Moody Palette Glossy Dots (Online Exclusives), Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I'm not usually much of a floral girl but this set really spoke to me when it first came out on the Online Exclusives. I think it's the colors & prints of the DSP! It's so pretty!

The last few days were busy for me. I had a card order to wrap up for Audrey. Yes, I know I said I was going to stop with her card orders but what she asked for was some cards I already had in my stash that were made ahead of time for her. If she askes for something I already have made then I'm fine to fulfill her order. If it's something complicated I will most likely pass. Plus I had a card order from my friend Shannon that works with Shawn. And I decided to participate in a swap with fellow Stampin Up! team mates. I created 13 cards and mailed those out Friday. So, my hands have been working overtime lately and I am going to take a few days and let my hands rest. I am thinking of starting a puzzle to occupy my mind a few days. I do have a few more Father's Day cards to share so stay tuned for that in the coming days, ok? Have you created any Father's Day cards this year?
