Artistic Thanks

Hey all, another recent creation to share! Thank you notes I sent out this week. Hopefully they've been received!! *post edited 2/2/24 with better picture! Much better color!!



Stamp set used is Artistically Inked. Love this set but sometimes struggle to get a look I like. Probably because I don't want to get out the dies, prefer a quick and easy stamp and be done! But I like this one! Card base is Gorgeous Grape, accent layer of Lemon Lolly, background layer of Basic White. On that layer I stamped the large flower in Gorgeous Grape, added the "roses" next to it with Lemon Lolly. Leaves next in Parakeet Party, accent dots in Pool Party and "thanks" in Gorgeous Grape. I added an accent of Lemon Lolly gems under the "thanks". Love it!

Thanks for stopping by today! Shopping links and product details below as per usual. Honestly, not sure when I'll be back. Hoping to stay in the groove, but life may have other plans! LMK if you have any questions, or if I can help with anything!!

Starry Sky Floral

Hey all, Happy Friday! Slow start here as we had more wind and snow yesterday. Not driving out into that in the dark! So here is a card I made and sent quite a few for birthdays in January. Very pretty blue color!!

Starry Sky is a current In Color, but going away end of April. Get it now if you like it! Card base is Starry Sky with an accent layer of Basic Gray behind Basic White. I used the Translucent Florals set (carrying over from the last Mini Catalog and currently available) and stamped the two flowers slightly overlapped with Starry Sky, then added Parakeet Party stems and one set of leaves. Happy Birthday at the bottom also in Starry Sky. Starry Sky ribbon (not current) knotted and attached with a glue dot over the stems. Quick and easy! and so pretty!!

Product details and links below. Thanks for stopping by today! Hope to be back soon, we're looking at yet another weekend at home!!

Quiet Thanks

Hey all, back again! I was playing with thank you card ideas the other day and this is one I came up with. Unfortunately, it has a retired set on it- Watercolor Shapes for the rectangle (sorry, my room is a hot mess!!!). There are several ways to get a rectangle like this background though. Think stamp block like my previous card, or cut a rectangle die and use that!

Card base is Crumb Cake, accent layer is Copper Clay (nice new color!!), background Very Vanilla. I stamped the rectangle from Watercolor Shapes in Petal Pink center of the background, then the flower image over that in Copper Clay. The splatter image was stamped off once in Crumb Cake and then onto the background around the image. I grabbed my Wink of Stella and added some Petal Pink ink to the flowers so they sparkle. Center of the flowers is a Copper Clay Gem. Ribbon is also Copper Clay and knotted around the back under the thanks rectangle. The thanks is from Biggest Wish, the rectangle from the Deckled Rectangles die set.

Foliage Thanks

Hey all, hope you are staying in and warm! The weather here in Nebraska is absolutely frightful! Super cold and lots of blowing snow. I've had two awful drives to down this week - I don't recommend it!

We are staying productive and continuing to work on purging our house. Big job, but it will make moving later this year so much easier! The stamp room is one of the worst parts but I'm slowly making progress! And I have been stamping here and there!!

To share today I have two versions of a thank you note I made this fall. My father passed away and the task of sending these fell to me. I couldn't bring myself to use the ones the funeral home game me, I had to make my own! I reached for an old favorite, French Foliage and came up with these!


I also grabbed some older cardstock - trying to use up things that have been hanging around! I actually wish we still had these, just for variety. The top is Naturals Ivory, and the bottom Naturals White.

Same card and layout, different colors. The top is a Natural Ivory base, Early Espresso accent layer. The Ivory background is stamped with a clear block (Block E) in Crumb Cake and then leaves over in Early Espresso, Cajun Craze and Pumpkin Pie. The ribbon is a retired natural type that went perfect with these colors!


This one has a Natural White base with a Gorgeous Grape accent layer behind the Naturals White background. On that I again stamped Crumb Cake with Clear Block E and then leaves over in Gorgeous Grape, Crushed Curry and Garden Green. Another retired ribbon, this one in Gorgeous Grape. 

The "Thank You" on both is from a current set, Inked & Tiled.

Thanks for stopping by today! I will be back, in addition to all the purging and sorting I have been mailing some birthday cards. I don't like to post those ahead of when they are received so it will be a bit. Let me know if you have any questions!! I do have some new things on the way too :)
