Good day my friends. Today’s card is a SIP card – stamps, ink, paper. So quick and simple, but still very elegant. Thanks to Jackie Bolhuis for posting a video on this card. I have been struggling with a cold/virus so I copied her card exactly. She used a different sentiment, but I unfortunately need sympathy cards so that’s what I made.
Thankful Garden
Another nice thing about this card, it is very flat and won’t require extra postage. I have read stamps are probably going up again in July. Totally out of control as far as I am concerned. No worries sending this card with a regular stamp.

Hope you like the card and video. I will be back next week with a stronger voice. Blessings!
Hello everyone. We are experiencing a beautiful Colorado spring day for which I am very thankful. Done with the cold temps, but could certainly use some moisture – rain but not snow. Today’s card features the retiring Memorable Blooms bundle. Sad to see this one go, but am going to use it lots before it is gone. This card is very quick with minimal work involved.

Hello everyone! Well it’s not Tuesday, but here’s a card anyway. My Tuesday totally got away from me so I’m a day late. As they say better late than never.
Tiled Technique Inside
This card is quick and simple. Unfortunately Tiled Technique is not carrying forward to the new 2025-2026 Annual Technique. It does make very pretty backgrounds. Wish I had used it more. Check out the Last Chance list in my online store – sherriminne.stampinup.net. Some items are discounted, and once item is sold out it’s gone.
Hello everyone. Tuesday’s seem to roll around so quickly. Today’s card is a layout I always use when I need a card in a hurry. Simple, limited amount of supplies, but still very striking. Not sure what to call it hence the DSP Paper Split title. Just for you!

Another card with my favorite stamp set from the 2024 September to December Mini. I have made several cards using this set, and I have one more to do with it. We did this card at my 2024 Christmas Stamp-a-Stack. Hope you like it.

Hello all. Hope you like my latest card creation featuring the Regal Winter 12×12 Designer Series Paper. Such beautiful paper! Card layout is one I have done many times, and I like it because you get two cards from one 4×5-1/4 piece of DSP. Use any patterned paper from you stash and match it to a stamp set of your choice.
Hello stampin friends. I have started preparing cards for my annual Christmas Stamp-a-Stack being held on November 9th. I think the Decorative Tree Bundle is so lovely, and the foil really makes the card pop. In my ongoing effort to use up what I have the video features green foil. Several years ago for Christmas Stampin Up sold green and red foil. I still have a couple sheets left so that is what is used in the video. The picture below shows the card in gold foil. We will be doing one red and one green at the Stamp-a-Stack.

Not sure I’m ready to think about Christmas yet, but all the stores are totally stocked with Christmas items. Would be nice if we could celebrate Thanksgiving first. Hope you like the card. Blessings!

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Crist Jesus”
Here we go again with another Terrific Tuesday card. I am calling this one a double flap card, but not sure that adequately describes the card. Best thing about the extra flap is using and showing almost a whole sheet of the beautiful Thoughtful Journey 6×6 Designer Serie Paper. I will say it was a bit difficult to capture the card in my photos. But it is what it is.

Really like the way this card turned out. My inspiration came from a swap card I received, and am sorry I didn’t write down her name. Hope you like it as much as I do. Blessings!
Hi friends! This week’s card is a blast from the past featuring a stamp set from 2019/2020. Back on Your Feet is a set I have kept, and used many times. It will always be a part of my stash. I chose to make a “get well” card; but with the greeting I put on the front, it could be an encouragement or thinking of you card.

Hello everyone! Got the video posted on Tuesday, but yesterday was doctor/physical therapy day so had no time to blog. The featured card for this week is our first Christmas card of 2024. This will probably be the card I send out this year. A bit of die cutting and some heat embossing involved, but it’s really pretty simple.
