Pastor & Ministry Appreciation - NEW Product of the Week

Good Monday morning. We are here today with our NEW Product of the Week running at 20% OFF through next Saturday. 

Did you know that October is Pastor Appreciation Month? Thus we are featuring our 2-set Pastor & Ministry Appreciation Series. This is a wonderful pair of stamps to thank and acknowledge not only your pastor and those in ministry at your church, but also all the others in our society that are out there helping and ministering to people day in and day out. Think of our our police, firefighters, EMT, doctors, nurses and the list could go on and on when we think of all "helpers" we have out there. They sacrifice a lot, and sometimes a little card of thanks might mean the world to them!

Pastor & Ministry Appreciation Series

Acknowledge and thank not only your pastor and those in church ministry, but all the everyday workers and helpers within our communities that we depend on so much, often without even realizing it!

20% OFF - thru 9/5/26

No code needed - marked at sale price

Plus FREE SHIPPING at $100

This is the Day ...

 ... the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

This has always been a favorite verse of mine and I know it's a favorite of many of you as well. It is displayed so beautifully for fall in the card Deb Saaranen is sharing with us today. The actual tag, if not applied to the card, would make a wonderful bookmark as well.

The set Deb used is 1 of 3 sets featured this week as our Product of the Week. Get them all at 20% OFF through Saturday only! You can read the details at the end of this post.

I love the appearance of the doubled up hanging leaves - just beautiful!

 Often times a card just falls together, as though it were meant to be. Case in point with the card that Deb Felts is sharing with us today. She chose some of her favorite paper from the Ink Drops collection. The sheet she chose allowed for perfect placement of her fall oak leaf, pretty much completing the card. A simple sentiment added, with a bit of seam binding on top and she was DONE! You just have to love a quick and easy card!

The set Deb used today is 1 of 3 sets featured this week as our Product of the Week at 20% OFF through Saturday. Check out all the details at the end of this post.

Isn't that paper just gorgeous, and how Deb colored the leaf to go perfectly with the paper!!!

Give Thanks (leaf, sentiments inside & out)

Colorful Autumn Pumpkins

Good morning, good morning! We have some very cheery pumpkins for you today, beautifully created by Esther Asbury. I love how she likes to color our Boho Pumpkins in such fun and non-traditional shades - it surely spices up the landscape of her card!

I Thank God for You

Hello once again. Yes, fall is in the air in our neck of the woods, and it is absolutely lovely with warmer days and cooler nights. The card Karen Letchworth is sharing today offers some of that fall warmth along with the crisp, white coolness - a totally fun cleaner vintage themed fall card.

And the set used today is one of 3 featured as our current Product of the Week at 20% OFF. Be sure to check out all the details at the end of this post.

How fun! Karen was using up a variety of paper scraps today, and note how some are machine stitched, adding to that vintage charm, but today in a clean, fresh look!

Give Thanks (image, sentiment)

Rather hard to see, but the backgound was embossed with

Typewriter (embossing folder)

Burlap String

And a piece of burlap fabric was added for good measure!

Absolutely lovely, Karen. Thank you so much!
