This Little Ladybug set is one of my favorite sets in the Sale-a-Bration brochure.  And it is made even better because there are framelits that do coordinate with it!!  And today is the last day that you can earn this set!!

This is another one of the cards that I made when I attended Susie's monthly stamp day at the beginning of the month!!

It is just so cute and is a fun fold . . . a double Z fold card.  Who wouldn't love to get this cute card in the mail!!!

Wow . . . what a difference a change of scenery and a little sunshine and warmer weather can do for the soul!!!  I went to Kalona yesterday to deliver a couple of stamping things, drop off our taxes, and stretch my eyeballs a little bit.  When I got home I just sat on the front porch, in my glider, reading a book, but mostly just watching the outside world!!  Today my choice of an outside sitting spot is going to be right outside my back door on a cement slab with the sun shining on me!!!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Happy Stamping!!

Well Dressed

There are only 2 days left of  2020 Sale-a-Bration!!!  How can that possibly be!!  Well Dressed is one of the stamp sets that I was sure I ordered for myself, but alas I did not.  I am very sad.  Don't be like me and be sad . . . if there is a Sale-a-Bration set you want let me know and we will get it ordered for you. 

This is one of the cards that I made at Susie's monthly class at the beginning of March . . . seems like a year ago now but it was just four weeks ago.  Perfect for those men in your life who still need birthday cards!!

I should be keeping a diary . . . that does not happen very often at all!!!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

John's routine  has not changed much at all . . . he is perfectly content to not leave the house.  I on the other hand am not so patiently waiting for the weather to get a little warmer so I can at least be outside some.  I have gotten a lot of stamping done this week and have also read several good book.  There are positives in any situation!!!

Flowering Foil Designer Series Paper


I absolutely love the Flowering Foils Designer Series Paper that is available as a Sale-a-Bration item until March 31st.  I decided that I wanted to make a set of All Occasions cards using the flowers.

If you saw my video yesterday, you know I started out by coloring groups of flowers with my Stampin' Blends and Sponge Daubers with ink.

 

Once I got them all colored, it was time for some fussy cutting.  They were really easier to cut out than I had anticipated.

I ended up with thirteen groups of flowers.  I got a set of eight cards done yesterday and still have five groupings of flowers to use in other cards.

I stuck to the same color scheme to make it a little easier.  I am pretty pleased with how they all turned out!!

Stamps: Peaceful Moments

Cardstock: Whisper White Thick, Calypso Coral, Whisper White

Designer Series Paper: Flowering Foils

Well . . . I wanted to go for a walk yesterday but by the time I got done messing around trying to do a video and finishing these cards it was time for a rest!!  And it was still a little chilly with the wind blowing for me to be comfortable walking outside.

I have several other cards I want to try and make today with this designer series paper.  Stay tuned to see what I come up with!!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Seriously The Best

While  surfing yesterday, I came across this card on a blog I follow, Bonnie Stamped.  It so expresses the way I feel, that I just had to make one of them.

I surely hope that the Seriously the Best stamp set carries over because I love the large font sentiments.  Sometimes, you just need the larger sentiment for your card.

Cardstock: Night of Navy, Granny Apple Green, Whisper White

Ink: Granny Apple Green, Night of Navy

Stampin' Blends:  Night of Navy Dark

Accessories:  Stitched So Sweetly Dies, Small Bloom Punch,

I am hoping that the weather really does get as warm as they are predicting because I surely would like to go for a walk today.  Today may be the only chance for a while if the rain comes through as predicted.  After being in my stamp room for a while yesterday I am anxious to spend more time there today.  I will have several new cards and ideas to show you in the coming days.

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Timeless Tropical

Another day . . . another swap!!!  This one with the stamp set, Timeless Tropics.  I haven't really used this set much at all.  I mainly got it in case I would happen to want to scrapbook my trip to Hawaii if that still happens.

Rooted In Nature

Wow . . . what a difference a week makes!!!  Who would have thought last Sunday that we would be where we are today!!  This is a card I made last fall for a totally different situation, but I certainly thought it was fitting for today!!

I want you to know even though we aren't stamping together, I am thinking of you!!  I particularly like the images of the anchor in this card.  I googled anchor and this is what came up.  The anchor is a popular symbol because it was not only part of the ship, but because, just like Christians, sailors liked the connection this symbol had to stability and strength. Putting down an anchor also represented the safe end of a long journey.  Christians adopted the anchor as a symbol of hope in future existence because the anchor was regarded in ancient times as a symbol of safety.  

Stamps: Rooted in Nature, Sailing Home

Cardstock: Night of Navy, Whisper White, Silver Foil

Ink: Night of Navy

Accessories:  Smooth Sailing Dies, Stitched Nested Labels Dies, 

Stampin' Dimensionals

I am working on trying to figure out how I could do a phone camera set up so I can try to do a Facebook Live.  I knew I should not have gotten rid of my selfie stick!!  It would have been perfect for what I want!!

I am slo planning on doing a little more stamping this afternoon.  I was in my room for a little while yesterday and it did feel good to be back there!!  A little sense of normalcy!!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

I do have to say that not having events to plan for has seriously impacted my motivation and my time in my stamp room.  Sara Douglass from Stampin' Up! is hosting a live Craft Party with her family this afternoon on Facebook.  I am going to join in and then see if I can figure out how to do something similar!!

Peaceful Moments

Another swap from my retreat in Illinois . . . this time using painted Poppies and Peaceful Moments .

So Sentimental

I think I mentioned the other day that I was part of a 65 card swap when we went to the stamping retreat a couple of weeks ago.  This is one of the cards that I got back in return.

I have a set of the Peaceful Poppy Elements, but to be honest I have not even looked at them.  I guess that is going to have to change.

Stamps: So Sentimental

Cardstock: Poppy Parade, Basic Black, Whisper White

Designer Series Paper: Peaceful Poppies

Ink: Memento Black

Accessories: Stitched So Sweetly Dies, Peaceful Poppies Elements, 

Whisper White 1/4" Crinkles Seam Ribbon, Mini Glue Dots,

Well . . . while I did not make it into my stamp room yesterday to stamp I did get lots of "happy mail" ready to go. One of the things I decided to do during this time of "social distancing" or as I saw the other day "compassionate spacing" is to be deliberate about sending out more cards . . . especially to people that I know in care facilities that have even more less contact with the outside world than they normally do.

My goal today is to get all of my bookwork caught up that I have let go since the middle of February, because I was so busy.  (Be carefuel what you wish for!!)  Once I get all of that done I am going to start to work on an order of 40 cards that I need to get done.  I was wishing for time to work on them and now I have that!!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Easter Promise

Today was suppose to be easter card stamping day with one of my friends. This is the card she was going to make.

 

We decided with everything going on that instead of Make and Takes, today would be a Take and Make.  That way she still gets to make her Easter cards to send to her friends.

Stamps: Easter Promise

Cardstock: : So Saffron, Soft Sea Foam, Whisper White

Ink: Memento Black

Stampin' Blends:  So Saffron Combo Pack,

 Mango Melody Light, Soft Sea Foam Dark

You know how you wish for things sometimes . . . like unlimited, uninterrupted time in your craft room . . . and then when you get it, you don't want to do that??  Yup . . . that is me right now . . . no desire to go play with the new things I have waiting for me.  Hopefully this will pass soon. I know once I get there I will keep on working but right now my recliner and a book sound mighty inviting.

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

I made the decision this morning to cancel all in person stamping events until at least March 30.  We will see what happens after that.  In the meantime . . . Happy Crafting!!

A Big Thank You

I love when Hanna asks me if I can make her some cards.  This was yesterday's project . . . 30 of these with red, yellow and blue card bases.

Now . . . where did you get that flowering stamp you might ask.  It is actually something she has watercolored that has the motif they are using on all of their adoption things.  I just printed it off on my computer and stamped directly on that.  It actually matched our real Red, Pacific Point, and Crushed Curry cardstock perfectly.

Stamps: A Big Thank You

Cardstock:  Pacific Point, Whisper White: 

Ink: Memento Black

Accessories:  Follow Your Art Washi Tape

I wanted to get them all done yesterday because John and I are going to visit Jake and Hanna today and take them several things, these cards included. The weather is good and their schedules are so crazy and today worked for both of us so away we go!!

Painted Poppies

Triple Time stamping is another one of the techniques that we did at Technique/Stamp Club a while back.  It looks much more complicated than it really is!!!

I normally like to use the technique with a more solid image, but wanted to try it with an outline image.  I think I much prefer the solid image as it shows up better.

Stamps: Painted Poppies, Peaceful Moments

Cardstock: Poppy Parade, Whisper White

Ink: Memento Black, Poppy Parade, Pear Pizzazz

Accessories:  Poppy Parade 1/2" Textured Weave Ribbon, Mini Glue Dots 

John's appointment yesterday was as positive as mine had been in the days before.  It took a while, but again the outcome was worth it!!  We got a bite to eat before heading home.  I worked a little bit on making some cards for Hanna and finishing my book.  Today looks to be more of the same, although I don't like the white stuff I see falling from the sky.  I am also hoping to get my closet sorted and some bags of stuff taken to Hanna tomorrow for a garage sale they are having.  I think I have plenty to keep me inside and busy today, even though there is no basketball watch on TV.

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Tags in Bloom

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this new Sale-a-Bration stamp set, Tags in Bloom.  I particularly love this stamp in the set!!  It is so easy to line up if you want flowers at the top and bottom or it looks great with just the top flowers.

Music From the Heart

Wednesday night was Paper Pals night which is my monthly shoebox swap group.  We are all relatively close in age, with one younger member.  I knew all of us would and could appreciate records!!

2020 is the year of perfect vision and my eye appointment yesterday did not disappoint . . . believe it or not my eyes are getting better as I get older . . . weird, I know, but then I usually do not follow a typical pattern.

As soon as I am done posting this I am out the door for another day of appointments . . . hopefully I will be home by early afternoon and can do some stamping, but realistically I will probably watch basketball tournaments!!

Tags In Bloom

The second release of the Sale-a-Bration catalog has some pretty neat items in it.  The Tags in Bloom set is one of those items.

Since the flowers are only at the top of this stamp I though perhaps lining them up and stamping at the bottom would be rather difficult, but it was really quite simple.  The middle shape makes it very easy to line up!!
