Today is a day of remembering and honoring those who fought and fight for our freedoms.
As many of us have a day of work and are spending time with family and friends, please stop and say a prayer and a thank you to all the men and women who have and do protect and serve us.
Thank You!!
The Grown with Love Bundle is one of the retiring bundles that I just haven’t used enough. It is a beautiful stamp set that has coordinating framelits to cut out and give your card some dimension. This card was inspired by a card Mary Fish did. It is sweet and simple with some nice layer.
Measurements:
Rose Red (retiring) – 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ — scored at 4 1/4″
Whisper White – (2) 4″ x 5 1/4″ — one for layer and one for stamping
Wild Wasabi (retiring) – 3″ x 4 1/4″
Smoky Slate – 2 7/8″ x 4 1/8″ & 1/2″ x 4″ for under layers
Whisper White – 2 3/4″ x 4″
On one of the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Whisper White pieces – stamp “amazing you” flower once with Rose Red ink and again with Wild Wasabi ink. Stamp flower pot with Smoky Slate ink. Cut out using the Garden Grown Framelit (cut Wild Wasabi flowers with the full framelit. Cut the three larger Rose Red tulips with the individual tulip framelits, then use the full framelit to cut out and trim around the two smaller tulips). Attach Rose Red tulips to Wild Wasabi flowers with Glue Dots.
I used Dimensionals to attach the Wild Wasabi flowers and flower pot.
The Grown with Love Bundle, Rose Red cardstock & stamp pad and Wild Wasabi cardstock & stamp pad are all retiring in four days so get them ordered now so you don’t miss out.

Sympathy cards are not always the most fun to make but are so nice to have on hand. Our dear friend’s mother just passed away and I thought this card was just right to send to them. It is elegant and simple with some gold embossing on the front and the verse inside. Heartfelt Sympathy stamp set is retiring (only 7 days left to get it) and it is such a beautiful stamp set and perfect for those hard to make cards.
