Welcome to Thursday and this fun hop! We have a sketch challenge today & I chose to work a brand new July ONLINE EXCLUSIVE bundle. It’s called Summer Happiness. 😀
I began by stamping these fun summer images and using a different ink for each one: Timid Tiger, Daffodil Delight and Strawberry Slush. They are so absolutely typical summer! Then I took the Perennial Postage Dies to die cut the immediate background for each: under the drink is Summer Slush, under the sun is Daffodil Delight, and under the flip flops is Timid Tiger. Using the next larger die in Perennial Postage, I die cut three rectangles from Basic White. I adhered each of these layers together with dimensionals and set them aside to make the background for these cute images. The card base is Thick Basic White (11 x 4 1/4 scored @ 5 1/2) with a layer of Crisp cantaloupe (4 x 5 1/4). I used the largest die in Perennial Postage Dies to die cut the panel from 2026-2028 In Color Painted Patterns DSP. Each of these layers were added with liquid glue. Before placing my rectangles, I stamped the sentiment in Strawberry Sluch ink on a Basic White piece & adhered a narrow strip of Strawberry Slush to the back. I put dimensionals on the back and centered it on the bottom of the card. I then added the three rectangles, placing the center item first then the other two. These were attached with liquid adhesive. Final touch – a few embellishment in Strawberry Slush.
For the inside… Another panel of Crisp Cantaloupe was added (4 x 5 1/4) then the Basic White panel (3 3/4 x 5). I stamped the sunglasses in Strawberry Slush ink and the card itself was complete!
For the envelope… I added the same Crisp Cantaloupe color of Painted Patterns DSP to the flap & trimmed to fit. I then stamped the sentiment on the front from Summer Happiness stamp set in Timid Tiger. Such a fun, light-hearted card!
Below is the bundle used for today’s card. Aren’t these fun images & dies coordinate! I could have done this same challenge using the daisy stamp and three images of that – wouldn’t that be cute!

Welcome! It’s Thursday & time for our Happy Inkin’ hop 😀. There are some talented folks in the group so be sure to check out what they have created. We have a color challenge today & I made two very different cards; both use the Bloom Boutique SDSP & the Scalloped Blooms Bundle.
Below are the two cards I created for this color challenge. I would really like to know if you have a favorite!
For the card on the left I used the Scalloped Blooms Dies to die cut flowers & centers from various papers in the Bloom Boutique Specialized Designer Series Paper (SDSP). I added them to the created card front: Crisp Cantaloupe card base (4 1/4 x 11 scored at 5 1/2) with a layer of Basic White (4 1/8 x 5 3/8) & Bloom Boutique SDSP (4 x 5 1/4) that were added to the card base with dimensionals. I die cut leaves from Peaceful Pine & slipped them around the flowers. In the smallest flower I added a single 2026-2028 In Color Dot in Golden Glow. The sentiment is stamped with VersaMark ink & sprinkled with Metallic WOW! embossing powder in Gold & heat set. I then die cut it with a die from Scalloped Blooms Dies. I snipped thin strips from each of the 2036-2028 In Color 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon & slipped them through the hole in the die cut, then tied a Linen Thread Bow to secure them in place. The sentiment was added to the front with dimensionals.
For the card on the right I cut strips from various papers in the Bloom Boutique SDSP: 1 x 4 3/4, 3/4 x 4 3/4 & 1 1/2 x 4 3/4. These were added to a Peaceful Pine laiyer 3 1/2 x 4 7/8. This was added to the Barely Blush card base (8 1/2 x 5 12 scored at 4 1/4). I wrapped a Barely Blush 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon around and secured it in back. I took the remaining bits of ribbon from the first card & tied each one in a kinot on the Barely Blush ribbon. I stamped the sentiment in Peaceful Pine ink from Scalloped Blooms satmp set on a Basic White scrap then die cut it with a Scalloped Blooms Die. I added dimensionals to the back & sdecured it in place. Final touch… five 2026-2028 In Color Dots in Peaceful Pine.
For the insides of these two cards… the card on the left has stripes added with the various In Color Shimmer Brushes found on page 77 in the May-August 2026 Catalog. Once these dried I stamped the sentiment from scalloped Blooms in Black ink. The card on the right has a simple 1/2″ x 4 strip of the Bloom Boutique SDSP at the bottom. The sentiment is stamped in Peaceful Pine ink and is from Scalloped Blooms stamp set.
Envelopes… Each envelope has a 2 1/4 x 6 strip of the Bloom Boutique SDSP added to the flap & trimmed to fit. And that’s it! So… what’s your favorite card? I’d love to know!

Hello Saturday! We are in full rain for the next 48 hours mode… Maybe I can play in my craft room 😀 or… get some other projects completed. Today I have a sympathy card made with Artisan Sketched Garden and some Stampin’ Blends and oh yes, some Berry Botanical Vellum.
I began by coloring the pretty floral images on the Artisan Sketched Garden DSP: Peaceful Pine for the leaves, Fresh Freesia & Golden Glow for the flowers. Interesting combination, right? I took my cue for this combination by looking at the Berry Botanical Vellum which has an even larger mix of colors. I backed this with a panel of Golden Glow card stock then wrapped it with 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon in Golden Glow. I took another short length and slipped it under the ribbon & tied a knot. I stamped the sentiment in Memento Black ink on Basic White scrap & fussy cut it & placed it on the front with dimensionals. I cut a piece of the grid vellum from the Berry Botanical Vellum pack & backed it with Fresh Freesia. This was adhered directly to the polka dot pattern of the Artisan Sketched Garden that was already on a Card base of Basic Black.
For the inside… I stamped the sentiment using the Framed All Around stamp set & Memento Black ink then stamped the ‘frame’ in two places with Fresh Freesia ink. The Basic White was secured to the card base & the card was complete.
For the envelope… I stamped this leaf image in Memento Black ink & colored the leaves with Peaceful Pine Stampin’ Blends. On the flap is another of the Artisan Sketched Garden DSP in the polka dot pattern used for the card front. I love how this card turned out, sweet to look at and gentle thoughts. This card goes in the mail today.

Good morning, good morning! It is a bleak looking day here today – cloudy, overcast, 55 degrees. Of course 2 days ago it was 94! We made this card two weeks ago in card class & I forgot to post it 😖. It is so cute… Silly Old Bear DSP, Hundred Acre Woods embossing Folder & coordinating Sweet Words & Lab els bundle. These are all from the May ONLINE EXCLUSIVES.
I used the dies from Sweet Words & Labels to die cut this image straight from the Silly Old Bear DSP. The layer behind the DSP is Golden Glow card stock, one of the new In Colors for 2026-2028. I used Wink of Stella on the Balloon & Hydrangea Hue for stamping the sentiment from Sweet Words & Labels stamp set. Let’s look at the inside of the card so you can see the whole image.
The DSP layers here are all from the Silly Old Bear DSP – gorgeous aren’t they? And the card stock layers are Golden Glow. The card base is Very Vanilla and the embossed panel is also Very Vanilla, embossed with Hundred Acre Woods 3D embossing Folder as I mentioned earlier. The images for the V panel were fussy cut from the Silly Old Bear DSP & stamped with the Sweet Words & Labels stamp set: either Golden Glow or Hydrangea Hue.
Directions for a W/V fun fold:
The card base is 11 x 5 1/2 scored on the long side @ 1 3/4, 3 1/2, 5 1/4, & 7
Card stock layers 1 1/2 x 5 1/4 – cut 4; 3 3/4 x 5 1/4 + embossed panel 3 5/8 x 5 1/8
DSP layers 1 3/8 x 5 1/8 – cut 4, 2 different patterns
Die cut images from Silly Old Bear DSP using the Sweet Words & Labels Dies; die cut card stock layer for behind each image with next size larger die
Embossed the largest panel for the inside back – Hundred Acre Woods EF
Adhere Layers together & attach to card base
Cut another panel of card stock (here it is Very Vanilla) 6 x 3 & score on long side @ 3″; attache to front panel & last scored panel to create the V – see photo below. Decorate the right panel w/ card stock layer 2 3/4 x 2 3/4 then Very Vanilla layer 2 5/8 x 2 5/8. This last layer is stamped & decorated prior to attaching.
Attach die cuts from DSP; add additional fussy cut layer for inside back panel & stamp sentiment in Hydrangea Hue
I love how this card turned out! And it can used for all kinds of reasons. I’m sending this to a friend who needs a little ‘pick me up’.

It’s Thursday & time for another Blog Hop from this fabulous Krew! We have a sketch challenge today that is so versatile and can be used for lots of cards – birthdays, sympathy, you name it. I chose this Waterside Retreat DSP as this card is for a fisherman for Father’s Day. I think this fits well!
Here’s what I did to create this card… I first cut a panel of the Waterside Retreat DSP 3 3/4 x 5 1/2 & added a slip margin of Azure Afternoon card stock to the one side. I set this aside and cut a 1 x 5 1/2 piece of the same DSP (it’s the reverse side of the fish images) and added it to the 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 Azure Afternoon card base (yep, scored at 4 1/4. I then added the set aside panel. These were all added with liquid glue. I stamped the sentiment in Azure Afternoon ink using the Relaxing Waterside stamp set, on the Azure Afternoon 5/8 x 2 1/2″ strip. I attached this to a Crisp Cantaloupe 3/4 x 2 1/2 strip & slipped a large Linen Thread bow between dimensionals & attached it with a glue dot to the strip. The strip was added to the card front with dimensionals as mentioned. Final touch – 2026-2028 In Color Dots in Crisp Cantaloupe.
For the inside… A 4 x 5 1/4 piece of Basic White with a strip of the Waterside Retreat DSP 3/4 x 5 1/4 was then stamped with na sentiment from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set in Azure Afternoon ink. This was added to the inside of the card.
For the envelope… a 2 1/4 x 6″ strip of the Waterside Retreat was added to the flapn & trimmed to fit. On the front a simple grass stamped in Old Olive ink three times without re-inking in between. This gives a sense of dimension to the image. Love the simplicity!

Hello Thursday – time for another amazing hop of the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! We have a theme challenge today and I had trouble making a decision as to what suite or bundle or DSP exactly to use – so many from which to choose! But the Waterside Retreat Suite won 😀
A friend of mine is retiring soon and this card is perfect for him. I think it fits our theme perfgectly.
Gray Granite 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 scored @ 4 1/4; Pool Party two tone 4 x 5 1/4 embossed w/ So Swirly; Gray Granite again 4 3/8 x 3 7/8; & layer of DSP 4 1/4 x 3 3/4 attached with dimensionals. Fussy cut the life jacket & oars aa& add with dimensionals + liquid adhesive. The sentiment is stamped in Pecan Pie using the Relaxing Waterside stamp set. I wrapped a length of Baker’s Twine around twice & looped through the Loose Anchor Trinket. It’s attached with a dimentional on the left end and liquid glue on the right. The anchor trinkent has a single glue dot to keep it secure on the card
For the inside… a layer of Pool Party 4 x 5 1/4 adhered to the inside of the card. On the Basic White I used Crumb Cake & a Blending Brush to add color to the lower portion (like sand). On the top portion is a mix of Balmy Blue & Pool Party & a Blending Brush resembling sky. I stamped the chair in Pecan Pie ink then using Light Pecan Pie to add more shading. The sentiment is also in Pecan Pie; the birds are in Gray Granite. Each stamp is from the Relaxed Waterside stamp set.
On the envelope… more seagulls stamped in Gray Granite and on the flap another of the aterside Retreat DSP 2 1/4 x 6 & trimmed to fit.

I’m seeing one of our daughters this weekend & I needed a small gift bag – this design popped up and I loved it: here’s my creation.
It begins with card stock 8 x 11; I chose Cloud Cover. Score it with the 8″ up on the paper trimmer @ 2″; turn it a full 180 degrees and do the same again. With the 11″ side at top of paper trimmer, score @ 4 1/2″, rotate 180 degrees & score again at 4 1/2″. With the short side at top again, mark 2″ from the up from the first horizontal score line, then 2″ down from the 2nd horizontal score line. Do this on both sides with short side at top. Burnish all score lines. After burnishing, the folds should look like the photo below.
Add adhesive to long area with diagonal score & fold in to secure. I should look like the photo below.
Emboss & die cut a piece of Basic White for the flap. I chose the Lazy Daisy 3D embossing folder and Scalloped Blooms Dies (2nd from largest). I lightly marked a center line on the die cut & scored 1/4″ on either side of it & burnished with my fingers. I adhered this to the back of the gift bag up to the first score line. Cut a length of ribbon (about 12″) and attach each end between the score lines on the newly created flap. See left photo below. Cover this area with a 3/8″ wide strip 4″ long to secure the ribbons in place. Add a Velcro dot to the flap. See right photo below.
Close purse – not too tightly – to adhere other half of Velcro dot. Decorate as desired.
I used a leftover portion of the embossed Basic White piece used to make the flap to die cut the sentiment banner & attached it directly to the front of the purse. The die was another of the Scalloped Blooms Dies. I stamped the sentiment using the Scalloped Blooms stamp set & Cloud Cover ink on a scrap of Basic White and fussy cut it. I put dimensionals on the back of the fussy cut sentiment & attached it to the embossed banner.
Finishing touches… I took another length of the 3/8″ Faux Ribbon in Cloud Cover and tied a bow & attached it with liquid glue, holding it in place to secure. I then added two 2026-2028 In Color Dots in Golden Glow – one to the banner & one to the center of the flap opening. I will stuff the inside with a bit of shredded paper & add the gift. 🎁 LOVE THIS!
The pink images were my sample pieces… forgive me 😊
I hope you like this little purse gift bag. What’s extra nice is this can be stored flat after making it – no stuffing inside of course! Want to make this cutie? See the items below for product information.

Oh yes – ’tis almost time for sailing season! For some it’s already here… and I’m all ‘a flutter’ over this new bundle & it’s coordinating Scenic Coast SDSP & the Sunset Sparkle Sequins. ❤️ The theme for this hop is to make something for the ‘men/ boys’ in our lives. This card relates to that as we sold our sailboat last year & it was tough. But we have such fond memories of our sailing days that it’s ok. 👍
On the inside I added the second panel of the Scenic Coast DSP to the inside on the right of the card. Next to it is a Basic White stamped panel 2 3/4 x 5 1/4. The sentiment is from the Sunset Coast stamp set & I used Night of Navy ink.
Final touch on the inside was this fabulous die cut that looks like netting, and I added it with dabs of liquid glue to the left portion of the card. – And done! The card looks like this from the top.

Hello, hello! Happy Mother’s Day to all you Mothers out there – and if you have cats, dogs, horses, pets of any sort – you’re a mother of those pets! So enjoy your day – maybe even do something special ❤️
My card today is a really fun, fun fold called a tri-fold shutter card, and I’ve used some gorgeous new Valley In Bloom DSP and it’s coordinating bundle Lily of the Valley stamps & dies & adorable 2026-2028 In Color Butterflies. Let’s look.
And here’s how we do this… begin with your card base 10 1/2 x 5 1/2 with score lines at 1 3/4, 3 1/2, 7 & 8 3/4. With the short side at top on your paper trimmer & at 1 1/2″ cut from the first score to the last score. Now move the paper to 4″ & cut again for the fist score line to the last. Burnish well valley, mountain, valley, mountain. For the canter area, it will be mountain, valley, mountain, valley… so just the opposite. It will look like the photo below.
Now decorate… I used Valley In Bloom DSP… 2 strips 1 1/2 x 5 1/4; 4 strips 1 1/2 x 1 1/4; 2 strips 1 1/4 x 3 1/4; 2 strips 1 1/2 x 2 1/4. The sentiment area is Mossy Meadow 3 1/4 x 2 1/4 & stamped Basic White 3 1/8 x 2 1/8.This was stamped in Gardewn Green ink for the sentiment itself & Mossy Meadow for the lilies. I colored the lily flowers with Light Barely Blush Stampin’ Blends & moved the ink on the leaves with a Blender Pen. I then added the three Butterflies (2026-2028 In Color Butterflies)
On the left front panel I added this die cut lily and leaf. The leaf is die cut from Granny Apple Green card stock. The lilies were die cut from Basic White then I used Mossy Meadow to color the stem and Light Barely Blush to add color to the flowers. These use the Lily of the Valley Dies. The circle is from Stylish shapes stamped with a sentiment from Lily of the Valley stamp set in Garden Geen ink.
The envelope… more Valley in Bloom DSP on the flap and the leaves stamped in Mossy Meadow ink and ‘moved’ using a Blender Pen.
