30 Day Gratitude Challenge 2025: Day 6

Good morning,

When I saw the new Kintsugi Specialty Designer Series Paper and this pattern with the pottery I instantly thought of fussy cutting them out for fun elements on a card.

I started with Petal Pink cardstock for the cardbase and then used Basic Beige cardstock for the cardfront and matted it with Lost Lagoon cardstock.  The greeting is from the Label Me Grateful stamp set and was stamped in Mossy Meadow ink.

After cutting out 2 of the vases and a flower I simple attached them to the card, using dimensionals for the smaller vase and flower.

The simplicity of this card really lets the vases and hints of gold be the star!

30 Day Gratitude Challenge 2025: Day 5 (Paper Craft Crew Weekly Challenge #646)

Good morning,

Today I'm playing along with this weeks Paper Craft Crew weekly challenge, which is perfect for November and this months gratitude challenge.  Of course I knew I had to use the Amber Autumn bundle for this fall themed card.

For today's card I started with Crumb Cake cardstock for the cardbase w and then a piece of Gathering Together Designer Series Paper that was matted with Early Espresso Cardstock.  Next I took a piece of Cajun Craze cardstock and embossed it with the Birch Wood 3D Embossing folder.  Next I added a piece of Early Espresso cardstock and wrapped some Irregular Weave 3/8" Trim around it for some added texture. 

I used the Amber Autumn stamp set to stamp the pumpkin image and colored it with Stampin' Blends before cutting it out using the coordinating dies.  

This piece was attached to a Crumb Cake circle cut with the Stitched Shapes dies using dimensionals.  I stamped the greeting from the same stamp set using Early Espresso ink, cut it out with the Oval die and attached with dimensionals.  The final touch was to add some of the Streaked Dots embellishments for a little bling!

There is so much to love with this card, the metallic in the DSP, the different textures, and colors it just screams fall.  We would love for you to check out the other cards the design team is sharing and then share what you create using this challenge.

30 Day Gratitude Challenge 2025: Day 4

Good morning,

Happy Election Day!  I'm always honored to be able to go and vote for our future leaders and the direction we want to head.  Of course I'm also back with another gratitude card that I know you'll love.

I started with Basic White Thick Cardstock for the cardbase and then added a piece of Secret Sea cardstock that was embossed with the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder.  Next I used the Everyday Arches dies to cut one arch using the Painterly Pears Designer Series paper and cut a larger arch as a mat out of Darling Duckling cardstock.  I took another piece of paper from this DSP pack and fussy cut a few of the pears and attached them with dimensionals.

The greeting is from the Everyday Arches stamp set and was stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on Basic White cardstock before cutting it out with the Stitched Shapes Dies and attaching with dimensionals. 

For a little bling I tied a knot using the Mossy Meadow & Gold 1/4" Trim and attached it to the stem of the pear as well as few of the Low Profile Sparkle Dots.  All the items in this suite work so well together it makes dressing up cards and other projects easy peasy.

I love everything about this card and how it looks really fancy but was simple to make.

30 Day Gratitude Challenge 2025: Day 3

Good morning,

It was a wonderful weekend and the definitely feeling like we are in the holiday season, which I love.  For today's gratitude card I wanted to share a fun one that brings back fun summer memories which uses the Adventure Together Bundle.

I started with Summer Splash cardstock for the cardbase and then added a piece of Smoky Slate cardstock that was embossed with the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder.

I used the Adventure Together Bundle to stamp and cut out the camper, tree, firepit, and chair, all of which were colored with Stampin' Blends.  As a backdrop for this scene I cut a circle out of Basic White cardstock using the Spotlight on Nature Dies.  All the pieces were popped up with dimensionals.

To finish the card I added the greeting which is from the Coneflower Celebrations stamp set and was stamped in Melon Mambo ink on Basic White cardstock.

This card is so fun and cheery, it just makes me smile.
