Okay, back to our regularly scheduled program! Is anyone else ready for spring? I am sick of the cold, cold weather! Making this thank you card with the Bloom Impressions DSP is definitely giving me spring vibes.
Once again, I used my favorite With You in Mind stamp set and fussy cut the flower and leaves. My ink colors are Peach Pie, Daffodil Delight, and Shy Shamrock.
Be sure to stamp or add some DSP on the inside of your card for an extra special finish!
Happy February! This set of note cards uses more cardstock & DSP, but I would still consider them to be simple stamping. It was fun to try the "stack, cut, and shuffle" technique. You literally stack three sheets of paper together and use your paper trimmer to cut them on the diagonals.
The entire set uses the Basic White Note Cards & Envelopes, the With You in Mind stamp set, Melom Mambo cardstock & ink, Pretty in Pink cardstock, and Totally Toadstools DSP (available for free through a qualifying Sale-A-Bration purchase).
For the first card, I random stamped the flower icon in Melon Mambo on all of the pieces and then stamped Thinking of You in Granny Apple Green on a scrap that I then fussy cut.
For the other two cards, I random stamped the heart icon on the card front, and then on a scrap rectangle, I stamped the heart in Melon Mambo followed by You in Granny Apple Green.
My original card had the heart stamped in green, so I fussy cut a Melon Mambo heart and glued it over the top. (The green heart was a little Grinchy.)
Which card do you prefer?
The third card sketch on p. 12 of the Mini Catalog is actually the first one that I made.
Here's a fun fold card featuring the Sale-A-Bration Fruit Salad DSP
I used a retired CTMH stamp set from my stash since it coordinated so well. I stamped my sentiment in Granny Apple Green and the strawberries in Real Red (using the stamping off/second generation technique).
We will be making a similar card at my class next weekend (which was snowed out from the original date). You're invited, and bring a friend!

My first layout of 2025 is a throwback to around 2008! I recently found these pictures that had not yet been scrap booked and thought that the Totally Toadstools 6 x 6 DSP, available as part of celebration, were a fantastic match.
I used a CDT sketch for 6 x 60 SP, and so here are the pieces that I used to create the layout. Pretty cool that you can really stretch your paper by carefully cutting and piecing back together. You can give the illusion of long pieces without the actual long 12” pieces.
Since I am on a budget, like everybody else, I have not purchased the coordinating stamp set and punches, so I decided to create my own toadstools with card stock and sequins. I just free cut them until I liked how they looked.(And truthfully, I love them!)
I used my Cricut to cut the title. I have 8 photos I will be adding to this page with flip flaps!
Don't be afraid to stretch your 6"x6" DSP to 12" long by hiding where they meet with an embellishment, or in this case, a photo. Also, do you see that cute little snail? It's from a fall Paper Pumpkin kit!
Remember that the Totally Toadstools 6"x6" DSP is only available as a FREE choice with a minimum $60 purchase during Sale-A-Bration (through the end of February). It also coordinates with the Terrific Toadstools stamp set/bundle. Get yours before they're gone!
{Layout 1/52}
I stamped the sentiment in Basic Gray and then stamped/fussy cut the little hot air balloons in Daffodil Delight, Shy Shamrock, and Blackberry Bliss. Can you tell that I used a mini Dimensional to pop the Shy Shamrock balloon?
Not pictured, but I randomly stamped a few hot air balloons on the inside of the card also.
