Framed Violets

 Hello & Happy Monday, Friends!

Hope you had a nice weekend!

Today I have a sweet card to share that I made with the Framed Violets bundle. It's such a pretty set! For this card I used some of the punch outs that is in the designer series paper pack and some Gingham Gallery DSP from the Online Exclusives.

Card Details:

Stamps: Framed Violets (Online Exclusives), Make An Impression (inside sentiment)

Ink: Hydrangea Hue (New In Color)

Cardstock: Hydrangea Hue (New In Color), Basic White, Gingham Gallery DSP & Violet Dreams Specialty DSP (both Online Exclusives)

Accessories: Stylish Shapes Dies, Circle Layering Framelits (retired), Hydrangea Hue In Color Dots, Hydrangea Hue Ribbon (2026 Sept-Dec Catalog), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I love this card! That color is so pretty and I think this is the first time I have used it since it became available in May. The punch outs in the designer series specialty pack also make it so quick & easy to create a card! It seems many of our paper packs are having these punch outs in them and I for one love it!

 Hello & Happy Wednesday!

Today I have another birthday card to share that I made with all the September birthdays coming up! I wanted to get them made so that this week I could work on a puzzle that I picked up at Goodwill recently. I'm hoping all the pieces are there because sometimes that happens when you buy them second hand.  Anyways, back to my card. I left the DSP do all the work on this one! Quick & simple!

Card Details:

Stamps: Sweetly Scripted (retired Online Exclusives), Daisy Lane (retired 2019), Make An Impression (inside sentiment)

Ink: Old Olive, Daffodil Delight

Cardstock: Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, Basic White, Beautiful Daisy DSP (retired 2018)

Accessories: Old Olive Glittered Dots (retired), Daffodil Delight Ribbon (retired), Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Such a pretty card!

Mother's Day

 Hello & Happy Saturday!

Hope your weekend is off to a great start!

Today I wanted to share a Mother's Day card I made. I was asked recently to make a card for a friend to give her mom for Mother's Day. I made this one for her using some new paper from the upcoming 2026 May-August Stampin Up! Catalog. This paper is absolutely beautiful and it is flocked! 

Card Details:

Stamps: Make An Impression

Ink: Berry Burst

Cardstock: Berry Burst, Basic Beige, Velvet Meadow Specialty DSP

Accessories: Oval Layering Framelits (retired), Textured Notes Does (retired Online Exclusives), Charming Shimmer Dots (retired Online Exclusives), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I did not take a picture of the inside but I used a sentiment from a retired set called All Year Cheer 2 that says Happy Mother's Day!

I have made quite a few Mother's Day cards in the last several months that I will be sharing this week.

Sketch Challenge 545

Hello & Happy Wednesday!

Yesterday, Ryan reminded me that he needed a Father's Day card for Shawn and of course I had not even thought about one for my Dad. So today I used the SCS Sketch Challenge to make atleast one of the cards! 

Here is the sketch....

I'm so glad that this stamp set, Guy Greetings was carried over into the new SU catty! I was able to get it and it just arrived yesterday....just in time for me to use it for this Father's Day card.

I paired this stamp set up with DSP that was also in the Occasions Mini called Adventure Bound DSP Paper Pad. That pack has some great masculine papers in it! Since my DSP was a bit dark to stamp a sentiment on it, I created a banner flag for mine and popped it up with Dimensionals. Other than that I followed the sketch perfectly! 

I think this card will go to my Dad and tomorrow I will make one for Ryan.

Hope you like!

Sketch Challenge 545 Card:

Stamps: Guy Greetings, Sentiment on front from Make An Impression

Ink: Early Espresso

Cardstock: Neenah White, Early Espresso, Adventure Bound DSP Paper Pack

Accessories: Circle Nestibilities, Hexagon Punch (flag ends), Gold Brads, Stamp A Ma Jig, Dimensionals, 2 Sided Tape

Well, that's all for me today!

Thanks for stopping by & have a wonderful day!
