Number of Years

Today’s post features the retired Number of Years Stamp Set Bundle. I made this card for my wonderful son-in-law, Gary, who will be turning 60 next month. WOW, I can’t believe I have a 60 year old son-in-law! Can you believe I sold it when it first retired and then about a year later I wanted it? Thank goodness I was able to find a used set in good condition.… Read More »

Rooted in Nature

Today’s post features the Rooted in Nature Stamp Set. I wanted a simple masculine card and I thought this was set was perfect for a “man” card. It’s a very simple and quick card and I made several cards. I have several masculine birthdays coming up next month and all I have to do is change the greeting to Happy Birthday. First I stamped the trees with Mossy Meadow Ink… Read More »

Winter Woods

The Winter Woods Stamp Set reminds me of walking in the woods in the winter time. Love the photorealistic images! Today’s card was inspired by one by Lori Pinto. I changed a couple of items to make it my own. The trees in the background were stamped with Gray Granite Ink onto Whisper White Card Stock. The greeting was stamped with Real Red directly right over the trees. The strip… Read More »

Snow front

Create tranquil scenes with the Snow Front Stamp Set, whether it’s cozy cabins with dainty deer or playful cardinals in a winter forest. Or in my case a fox from the Nature’s Beauty Stamp Set. This card is cased from one I saw on the Demonstrator Planning Facebook page. Sorry, but I forgot the demo’s name but hers was a little more clean & simple.

Sailing Home and New Host Code #

Today’s post features the Sailing Home Stamp Set Bundle.  This time I’m using the Lighthouse image from that set.  I made it into a monochromatic using only the Early Espresso Ink Pad. I had seen another card using the cheesecloth behind the image but I didn’t want to go for the vintage look so I keep everything simple and plain. My husband and I used to sail from Oxnard Harbor… Read More »

Nature’s Beauty

Today’s card features the Nature’s Beauty Stamp Set.  For every stamp set sold, Stampin’ Up! will donate $3.00 towards mental health organizations. I began by sponging the background in a non-SU item (panpastels), I added the leaves (from Very Versailles Stamp Set) in Mossy Meadow Ink and stamped the grass (from Nature’s Beauty Stamp Set) in the same color. The deer was stamped with Early Espresso Ink and then fussy… Read More »
