Fun for Fall with Scalloped Blooms

September 25, 2026 - By Sherri Minne

I know it’s not Tuesday, but this has been a week. Video did post on Tuesday thanks to me finally learning how to schedule my videos to upload for a certain day. Since this has been such a hectic week, I am just now getting the blog post published. The Fun for Fall Bundle is a favorite of mine. I love all things fall – weather, colors, foods, and everything to do with fall. Even though the coloring takes some time this card was such fun to make.

Since weekend is close hope you all have a great one. Blessings!

And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. ³⁹No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39 NLT

Nature’s Symphony Masculine Birthday

February 11, 2026 - By Sherri Minne

Once again it’s time for this weeks post and video. I used parts of the Nature’s Symphony Suite which can be found in the 26 January to April Mini Catalog. Great set of products for guys and gals. It’s been said I always have my nose stuck in a book if I’m not doing cards. There is some truth to that, and this book fun fold card is one of my favorite fun folds. Quick and easy card.

CARD RECIPE:

STAMPS: Nature’s Symphony, Fantastic Phrases> PAPER: Garden Green 4-1/4 x 11 S 5-1/2 & 4-1/4, , Regular Basic White 4×4, Scrap, Crushed Curry 4×5 > DESIGNER SERIES PAPER: Nature’s Walk 4×4 INK: Mossy Meadow, Crumb Cake > DIES: Nature’s Symphony, Stylish Shapes > OTHER: Faux Bronze Pentagons

VIDEO:

Masculine cards are sometimes are difficult to make, but this one serves the purpose well. Many of the designer serie’s paper, and sentiments work well for guy cards, but there’s plenty for the girls too. Hope you enjoy the card and video, and I hope to be back next week. Blessings!

Tuesday again, and time for another blog/video post. Hope you are all doing well. I am fine, and really enjoying the cooler weather we are experiencing.
