Happy Father's Day

Good morning! Deb Felts is with us today sharing this wonderful Father's Day card. She was going for a hunting camp vibe, and she nailed it! This card checks all the boxes - crisp and clear, easy to make and mail, with a theme men will relate to! A wonderful guy card for any time of year!

Deb used sets from our Product of the Week to create today's card. You can get these sets at 20% OFF thru Saturday, so be sure to check it all out at the end of this post.

Love this darker color scheme and that fabulous combination of papers!

Double Z Fold Father's Day Card

Good morning to all as we (try to) settle back into a normal routine. We've had our first round of fabulous weather with warm temps, and we are all so enjoying it! Father's Day is just shy of 4 weeks away, so we still have plenty of time to get those masculine cards made for all those special men in our lives, fathers or not, father-figures are everywhere and are deserving of a card as well!

Today's card is from Esther Asbury and she used one of the sets that are our featured Product of the Week, giving you 20% OFF all week long. Be sure to check it all out at the end of this post.

So very crisp and attractive for a man, yet in a rugged theme.

Memorial Day Greetings to All

Good Monday morning on this Memorial Day - a day we set aside to remember and give honor and tribute to those who gave all in their service to our country, allowing us to live this free and wonderful life in the USA that sadly, we so often take for granted. Freedom is NOT free. It has been paid for by so many. And as I am now getting up in years, I am taking it upon myself to educate our grandchildren as to the history of our country and WHY we can live as we do, teaching them to pay tribute to all who so bravely went before them. They are still quite young, but never too young to learn!

And now on to a lovely project from Karen Letchworth. She created a small folio (all the rage these days!) to Celebrate America! And we have a HUGE CELEBRATION coming up this year!

Karen started with a sheet of 6 x 8" designer paper, scored to fold in 1/2, then flipped up about 2.5" to form pockets on the inside, cutting the inner fold of the pocket at an angle on the inside (seen better in photo below).

She added a nice variety of patriotic themed items both on the front and tucked into the inside.

The American Eagle (eagle, larger star, sentiment)

Fishtail Sentiment Banners (to cut sentiment)

Stars Five (smaller stars) - 50% OFF!

Crochet (lace die) - 50% OFF!

Stars & Stripes Forever (patriotic designer paper)

And here the folio is opened up.

See what I mean about cutting the inside pockets at an angle!

Patriotic Background (image on tag)

Old Glory (USA map and sentiment)

Blessings/Beatitudes Set 1 (blessings sentiment)

And here you can see Karen even tucked a coffee gift card inside the right pocket.

Super fun! Thanks so much, Karen.

For the Men - NEW Product of the Week

Good Sunday morning to all on this Memorial Day Weekend as we remember and honor those who so bravely gave all. Freedom is not free - and let us never forget that! We offer our heartfelt THANKS to those who so bravely gave all, and to their families left behind to grieve their loss. Our hearts and eternal gratitude are with you all.

Sunday is the day we share our NEW Product of the Week, and with the coming Father's Day in mind, we are sharing some of our favorite and best selling stamp sets to honor those men in our lives (and women, too, so be sure to scroll all the way down)!
