Just want to take a moment to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!
I am so grateful for my customers and my team. I count it an honor to serve you, to stamp with you, and to do life together.

Last Monday, I did a YouTube Live using the sweet Quite Curvy Bundle.
I plan on doing regular YouTube lives, so be sure to head over and subscribe to my channel so you never miss one!
Today I thought I would reverse how I made last week’s card using different colors and paper.
My card starts off with Pool Party cardstock which I covered with a pattern from the (believe it or not) Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper.
Although you might think this paper is solely for winter crafting, it has this great pattern which can be used for any occasion.
I stamped the vine from the Quite Curvy Stamp Set twice alongside a panel of Whisper White cardstock, cutting it out with the Curvy Dies. I colored it in using Pool Party and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered this over the Designer Series Paper using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I then stamped the sentiment and little leaf from the Quite Curvy Stamp Set in Memento Black ink on Whisper White cardstock. I colored the leaf in using the Pool Party Stampin’ Blends and cut it out using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies, adhering it down using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I stamped a bird in Memento Black ink, cut it out using the Curvy Dies, coloring it using the Pool Party and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a Daffodil Delight bow next to it.
Here was my inspiration from last week:

Since my kids were little, I have had them send out thank you cards for Christmas presents they received.
I can remember my youngest being so small and couldn’t write yet, so I just traced her hand.
Today I’m sharing 9 super quick and easy thank you cards that you can make with your kids/grandkids for them to mail for Christmas presents received. They use 3″x3″ cards and come together really quick.
My youngest daughter used the Snowflake Wishes Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight, Seaside Spray, and Gray Granite ink.
My son used the Merry Moose and Well Said Stamp Sets in Mossy Meadow and Soft Suede ink.
Lastly, for my oldest daughter, I gave her a bit more of a challenge using the Press On Stamp Set with some coloring.
Then I decorated this super cute Pizza Box to hold the thank you cards.
To watch us make these cards, check out the video below.
A HUGE thank you to my oldest daughter who spent hours doing the editing on the video!!!

My card starts off with Soft Suede cardstock. I then matted a Bumblebee pattern from the 2020-2022 In Color Designer Series Paper on Whisper White cardstock.
I took a panel of Whisper White cardstock and stamped the wreath from the Arrange a Wreath Stamp Set in Old Olive ink.
I then stamped the other images in Real Red (crate), Bumblebee (flower), Soft Suede (oak leaf), and Garden Green (leaf) ink and cut them out using the coordinating Wreath Builder Dies.
I then stamped the sentiment from the Arrange a Wreath Stamp Set in Real Red ink in the corner.

I then took two patterns from the Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper, matting one on Shaded Spruce cardstock and the other on Whisper White cardstock.
I stamped the sentiment from the Peaceful Moments Stamp Set in Shaded Spruce ink on a small panel of Whisper White cardstock. Underneath it I wound around some Linen Thread and then added a few pearls around.

This week’s Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop is a sketch challenge. Happy hopping!
My card starts off with Poppy Parade cardstock, which I embossed using the Subtle Embossing Folder.
I then took a panel of Misty Moonlight cardstock and all across the top of it standing the snowflakes from the Coming Home Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight. I used the coordinating Home Together Dies to cut out a rolling hill of snow. I then matted these on Whisper White cardstock.
I used the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper and Home Together Dies to cut out two houses (which I layered over one another) and a couple of trees.
I just LOVE it when Stampin’ Up! coordinates their paper and dies – makes stamping so quick and easy – and better yet, this paper is on sale RIGHT NOW!
Next I stamped the sentiment from the Butterfly Gala Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight ink and I cut it out using the Tasteful Labels Dies, adhering it down with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

This month’s Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop theme is “Giving Thanks.” Have fun hopping through the blogs and seeing how everyone interpreted the theme.
My card starts off with Cajun Craze cardstock.
I then matted a pattern from the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper on Very Vanilla cardstock. Underneath it I offset a panel of Cinnamon Cider cardstock.
I stamped the sentiment from the Beautiful Autumn Stamp Set in Cajun Craze ink on Very Vanilla cardstock. I cut it out, along with a scalloped Gold circle, using the Layering Circles Dies.
Underneath the sentiment I added one of the beautiful Forever Gold Specialty Paper cut outs, but trimmed down the leaves around it.
I cut out the leaves using the Nature’s Root’s Dies from Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze cardstock. I used a sponge and the same color ink to add a little color to the leaves.
Lastly, I added a Gold bow above the leaves.

Okay everyone, you’ll have to give your input.
You know me, I tend to be a minimalist. I like simple and clean.
But I really went back and forth with the empty circle on today’s card.
I considered putting a piece of Designer Series Paper, but then I also really liked it empty. Let me know in the comments your thoughts – keep it empty or fill it?
My card starts off with Misty Moonlight cardstock which I embossed using the Dainty Diamonds Embossing Folder.
I took a piece of copy paper and cut out a circle from the Layering Circles Dies. I used a piece of washi tape to hold it to a panel of Whisper White cardstock. I used the Lovely You Stamp Set and stamped the images around it in Misty Moonlight, Seaside Spray, Bumblebee, and Gray Granite ink.
I used the Foam Adhesive Sheets, a piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock, and the Layering Circles Dies to cut out a circle.
If you’re not familiar with how to use the Foam Adhesive Sheets, check out this project I did using them – really easy and makes such a difference!
Lastly, I stamped the sentiment from the Lovely You Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight ink on Bumblebee cardstock and cut it out using the Tasteful Labels Dies. I added a Misty Moonlight Enamel Dot next to it.

Today is the 5th day I’m sharing my favorite way to use Designer Series Paper. If you missed the other days, you can check them out here, here, here, and here.
Today my card uses the bright and cheerful Playing with Patterns Designer Series Paper, mixing three of the patterns.
The patterns in a Designer Series Paper pack are color-coordinated and can easy be mixed and matched!
My card starts off with Coastal Cabana cardstock. I then adhered one pattern from the Playing with Patterns Designer Series Paper on it.
I then took another pattern from the Playing with Patterns DSP and matted it on Night of Navy cardstock. I took yet another pattern and also matted it on Night of Navy cardstock.
I stamped the sentiment from the Peaceful Moments Stamp Set in Night of Navy on Whisper White cardstock and cut it out using the Stitched Shapes Dies. Underneath it I used the Layering Circles Dies to cut out a Night of Navy scalloped circle.
Under the sentiment I folded over two ribbons from the Playing with Patterns Ribbon Combo Pack and I added two Resin Dots to the side of the sentiment.
