Extraordinary Flora

Monday, January 5, 2026
Do you absolutely LOVE the EXTRAORDINARY FLORA WASHI TAPE?
I loved the different way that Yvonne had for this card - kind of like a jigsaw puzzle. 
You could recess the floral pieces by popping up the Basic White piece and setting the pieces inside, but I chose to keep my flat - mostly because of the cost of postage, and the other reason was because I didn't think of it before I attached it LOL!! - I set them in there with some Mini Glue Dots.
I used some retired ribbon to wrap around and then tie a simple knot.
What I changed up was the sentiment. Instead of "celebrate" I chose the "Happy Birthday" from GO TO GREETINGS - a retired set, but still one of my favorites.
After cutting the die from the Basic White I ran it through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine with the EXPOSED BRICK Embossing Folder.
My colors are LOST LAGOON with the Basic White.
The measurements for this card are a bit bigger than our standard 4-1/4" x 5-1/2". 
Basic White: 4" x 5-3/4"
Lost Lagoon: 4-1/4" x 6"
Base: Thick White: 9" x 6-1/4" scored at 4-1/2"

Floral Impressions

Sunday, January 4, 2026

My card for today features the FLORAL IMPRESSIONS 12x12 DSP

I used this pattern in particular for the flowers. - Yes, I fussy cut all of the flowers out for the decor on the front.
and this pattern for the side that I used the FANCY BORDER DIE on.
This card was inspired by Kari. I changed up the sentiment to be a birthday (vs a thank you) which was stamped onto Basic White and bordered with Fresh Freesia using the PARTY BANNERS Dies.

Throwback Thursday

Wednesday, December 31, 2025

                                      2026! 

Seems unreal - I have looked forward to kicking out 2025 and have a new start for 2026. Our family has been through so much in 2025 and we are full of hope that 2026 will be so much better.

One stamp set that my stampers say that I CAN'T ever get rid of is the BACK ON YOUR FEET stamp set.

This card was inspired by Sue Jackson
I had to change out the leaf image because she used a stamped image that I no longer own, so I made due with a brand new die from NATURE'S SYMPHONY
Everything else is retired, but maybe you have this fun stamp set and would like to duplicate it. It was fun to pull out this cute little sloth. Seems like I always need a card for someone who has had surgery (or a broken bone, etc.)

Layers of Beauty

Tuesday, December 30, 2025

It's hard to believe that today is the last day of 2025!

Personally I am happy to escort 2025 out and usher 2026 in, hoping and praying that this next year will be a bit less eventful. 2025 was a difficult year for our family, and we sure do not want to repeat it.

Today's card features the LAYERS OF BEAUTY bundle. 

My Tuesday stampers are always happy when I offer an anniversary card to our class
I used a circle die from STYLISH SHAPES and some cute little BRASS BUTTERFLIES.
My colors are Light Red & Light Cherry Cobbler for the flowers. The little flowers have a light Peach Pie center, and the leaves are Old Olive light and dark 
In the dies that accompany the LAYERS OF BEAUTY it has the little greenery pieces that you see peeking out from the bottom left of the circle. A simple bow made with LINEN THREAD finishes it all off.

FOR EVERY ORDER PLACED IN DECEMBER, I WILL PUT YOUR NAME INTO A DRAWING AND THE WINNER WILL RECEIVE THE VALENTINE KISSES BUNDLE.

This will give you a head start on your Valentine cards
