Blooming with Kindness card for retirement
A friend recently retired from a lifetime of nursing, you cannot let such an occasion pass by without a card being made and sent!
My December Card Class ladies will recognise this design which we made as a thank you card, however the design works for most any occasion.
Thank you cards using Stampin’ Up’s Season of Style DSP
This is the time of the year when lots of thank you cards are needed. Inspired by a post by ‘POOTLES’ I spent yesterday making these using up the remainder of the Season of Style DSP from Stampin’ Up’ I know these are in traditional Christmas colours but as they are thank you’s for Christmas gifts I think they are the perfect colours!

Gift Card Set ~ using Stampin Up’s Afternoon Picnic DSP
Inspired by the set I made by dear friend last week (which she loved!) I decided to make a second one as a hostess gift for the upcoming holidays.
This one uses the same two stamp sets as the one I made last week, Best of Shelli’ and ‘Petite Pairs’ but I used the ‘Afternoon Picnic’ DSP with Wisteria Wonder and Pear Pizzazz Cardstock and inks. Pretty pleased with the result!
Petite Pairs is a very versatile stamp set – with sentiments covering most occasions, one for the outside of your card and a complementary sentiment for the inside….. it is one of my ‘go-to’ sets when designing my cards.
Like the recipe for this card set? Simply ‘follow’ my blog, ‘like’ and ‘comment’ on this post and I will be happy to send it to you 🙂
In the meantime, Happy Stamping !
If you’d like any of the supplies, to shop, or to get a catalog, please feel free to contact me, and if you’re thinking of joining Stampin’ Up! and my team I’d most definitely like to hear from you!
