I love playing with Jeanie’s Mystery Stampin’! This week I used Unbounded Beauty DSP with Unbounded Love stamps to build this fun “Z-Fold With a surprise Twist!” It starts out like any Z-Fold, cutting the base color cardstock at 8-1/2″x 5-1/2″, then scoring and folding at 2-1/8″ and 4-1/4″. Next…
LAST CHANCE for Country Flowers Stamp Set & Dies! I’ll be reaching for this pretty set long after it has retired. I love the images, the fonts, and the sentiments in this bundle. For today’s card, I’ve made a Country Flowers Sympathy card. You can’t tell from the photo, but…

Another sympathy card needed. It’s been a tough month! But I’m so glad we have these beautiful stamps to create a card that offers heartfelt thoughts. I created this one with Decorative Borders and Quiet Meadow. Card base = Pool Party Dark Layer = Pretty Peacock (available May 2) Stamped…
No one wants to have to send a sympathy card, but it is nice to have a couple on hand for those inevitable situations. I used the beautiful Decorative Borders Stamp Set with a sentiment from Inspired Thoughts for this simple but pretty card. Simple Stamping: I stamped the floral…

I’ve got a Simply Elegant card to share with you today. This could serve as a Get Well, Sympathy, or Thinking of You card. It was hard not to use the beautiful metallic side of this DSP, but I think I love these leaves just as much! Simple Card Recipe:…
