Scenic Adventure for Sunday Stamps!

 Happy Sunday! Can I just say how fast time flies in the summer? :0 

I have been running in all directions and haven't had much time to visit my beloved craft room as I normally would. That being said, I did find time to create with the new Scenic Adventure Bundle for our new color challenge at Sunday Stamps! and it does not disappoint.

I love the outdoors and the Scenic Adventure is absolutely gorgeous!  This card reminds me of the trip my daughter and I took in Washington hiking Rainier Mountain.  It was breath taking and this card exemplifies that experience.

To create my card, I started by blending Pumpkin Pie ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock. Next, I die cut the mountain range using Secret Sea cardstock and sponged in a little White craft ink for my snow.  I then added snow caps using Basic White cardstock.
Next, I die cut 2 tree lines using Mossy Meadow and Garden Green cardstock that I sponged with ink.  Next was the water. I stamped the water image using Balmy Blue ink onto Balmy Blue cardstock and wall-a! A beautiful scene was created.

My card follows this weeks new color challenge at Sunday Stamps! below.

Make a Wow card with the Impressions Abloom

Happy Sunday! I am excited to share today's creation with you using the Impressions Abloom Bundle!  This set is so fun and easy to create beautiful flowers and the coordinating dies create awesome texture on each flower and leaf that they look almost real! 

I also love that the Impressions Abloom Bundle is a two step stamp set which means that you can stamp and die cut each of the flower images separately, or stamp them together and die cut. As a result, numerous stamping and/or die cutting options are available to create different looking flowers with each of the images.  

For this creation, I focused on 2 of the 3 flowers in the stamp set and stamped only the outline image of the flower onto the coordinating cardstock. i.e.: Daffodil Delight ink onto Daffodil Delight cardstock and Fresh Freesia ink onto Fresh Freesia cardstock.

I arranged my flowers and sentiment following this weeks new sketch challenge at Sunday Stamps! created by Melissa.  

To play along with this weeks new challenge at Sunday Stamps!, simply follow the challenge guidelines below:
  • Use any brand of product you have. 
  • Link your new project created for this challenge (no back links). 
  • When posting your creation make sure to provide a link to the challenge or use the graphic provided in your post.

  • Upload your card to the Sunday Stamps challenge blog HERE.
The challenge will end on Friday, June 20, 2025 @ 6pm EST. 

My stamped and die cut flowers were added to an embossed Basic White cardstock layer with Dimensionals, and then I added Granny Apple Green die cut leaves and Strawberry  Slush tiny flowers.  Aren't those tiny flowers ever so cute?

Petunia Pop Gallery Blooms

 Hello to my crafty friends! It's been quite here on my blog but I have lots of good reasons for that!  Our youngest graduated from the University of Minnesota with a degree in Aerospace Engineering on May 15, 2025 and I have been nonstop enjoying time with all 3 of our children (plus new son-in-law)  and also vacationing at our cabin in Canada. 

My family!  Thank you to our new son-in-law for taking the photo!  And notice that my daughter is pregnant!  We are so excited!

And yes that's me with our new engineer in the family.  And yes, I caught that! lol 

We had the best weather: no bugs (yah!), calm winds and beautiful sunsets.  

I even had "me time" while the boys fished non-stop!  lol

But I know your not here to see all my personal activities so now lets talk about stamping!!  Oh, how I love the Gallery Bloom Bundle!
You know how much I love to color with Stampin' Blends and the color purple, SO I couldn't resist making a card for a dear friend and customer with this criteria in mind. :)

The images in the Gallery of Blooms Bundle stamp so nicely! The design is nice and bold which makes this set perfect for stamping (and not coloring it at all), but also perfect for embossing and of course excellent for coloring!
I stamped this beautiful floral image using the new Secret Sea In Color ink and colored it with Petunia Pop, Fresh Freesia, Pecan Pie, Old Olive and Mossy Meadow Stampin' Blends.

I then added some Mossy Meadow die cut leaves and Fresh Freesia die cut flowers to surround my flowers along with a Basic White layer behind them using the Damask Designs Embossing Folder.
Next, I added a Petunia Pop die cut frame and finished it off with a sentiment from the Beautiful Motifs Bundle stamped with Secret Sea ink.  Lastly, I added a few Starburst Sequins as my embellishment.

If you don't have this bundle yet, you are in luck because starting June 3rd  thru June 30th, you can purchase a suite or products in a suite and get a second suite or suite product at 50% off!

 

This is fantastic news and the perfect time for you to get your new wish list items during the month of June! But don't wait too long.  Items will most likely go quickly with this fantastic special!
