    • Old Olive 11" x 4 1/4", score and fold at 5 1/2"
    • Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper 3 1/4" x 4 1/2", 2 x 4 for sentiment

Stars, Stars, Stars!! Another Simple Sunday Card.

Hi crafty friends!!  Welcome to another Simple Sunday post.  This last week was not the best for crafting ot blogging at my house.  Our foundation was being lifted this week and the noise was unbearable, jack hammer, sawing concrete, and digging.   They started Monday in freezing cold weather and finished Thursday in the sunshine.  This is a continuation of a long renovation project for us.  I think the driveway and sidewalks are next -- more noise.

My project for today is super simple -- card base, stamp set, and some ink.  Even though this is an easy technique, I find one-layer cards to be the most challenging to layout.  Hope you enjoy this simple holiday card.

Here is how I put this one together:

  • Stamp the larger stars in Night of Navy,
  • Stamp over stars with small cluster using Sahara Sand
  • Stamp sentiment in Night of Navy 
  • Finish with splatterings of Wink of Stella

Card Measurements: 
Whisper White Thick 5 1/2 x 4 1/4"

Ink: 
Night of Navy, Sahara Sand, Wink of Stella

TIP:  I rarely use white cardstock for a card base, but when I use a white card base I use Whisper White Thick cardstock (140272).  It is thicker than our standard white cardstock (which I use a lot for liners/layers/sentiments) and perfect for card bases and boxes.

Simple Sunday - Welcome Autumn

What better way to welcome Autumn than with a card stamped with fall leaves.  Although in Texas we are still having hot weather, our Fall tends to show up really quickly and all the leaves hit the ground almost overnight.  I miss the long lingering days of Fall back home in Delaware.

Card Recipe:
  • Stamp Set: Gather Together
  • Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Merry Merlot, Cajun Craze, Early Espresso 
  • Tools: Stampin' Spritzer,  Early Espresso Stampin' Write Marker
  • Stamping instructions:
    • Start with blank 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" Crumb Cake card base.
    • Spritz inked leaf stamp with water before stamping each leaf onto the card.  The water smudges the lines in the leaf.  Let dry prior to stamping different color and use mask if desired. 
    • Once stamped leaves are dry use Early Espresso Stampin' Writer to flick ink onto the card front. 
    • Stamp chosen sentiment in Early Espresso.  All done.  An easy card for a Sunday. 

The Come to Gather stamp set is perfect for this time of year and I love the details in the leaf stamp.  This stamp set can be purchased alone, as part of a Bundle that includes a die set or as part of a perfectly coordinated Product Suite.  My choice was the suite, I could not resist as Fall is my favorite time of year.  One of my favorite things is the changing colors of the leaves.

Photo of Smoky Mountains a favorite place to visit. 


I have done it!! I made a short video on how I created this card and I posted it to YouTube!! You can see it here.  I must thank fellow demo, Karen Titus, for sharing this technique.  It is fun and I think everyone should give a try.

International Blog Hop - Stamping on a Tile Coaster



Hello crafty friends!! Today's card is not a card, it is a coaster!!  It features the High Tides stamp set and a very encouraging sentiment.  This was so easy to create and I love the message.  I was delighted to find this lovely stamp set carried over to the new catalog.  Now we have two wonderful light house stamps -- just think of all the possibilities. 


How I stamped on the tile coaster:

  • I used a tile from Michael's First, I outlined my coaster onto scratch paper and stamped on paper until I was happy with the layout 
  • Cleaned the tile with soap and water, letting it dry thoroughly
  • Stamped images in Memento Ink, it dried quickly
  • Note: 
    • Since the coaster is unsealed it absorbed the ink, so no need to seal it.  
    • I have washed it twice and it has not changed one bit.
