For today's #SimpleStamping Friday card, I pulled out one of the sets from the annual catalog that I love, but that I haven't played with much recently.  I always enjoy creating cards with very naturalistic stamps and I was super excited to see this set when it came out last year.  I think it is really easy to create a simple background with the images and then add a little layering to create a quick and easy card.

Paper Pumpkin January 2023:

This month's Paper Pumpkin kit was called Key to My Heart, and the cards are just beautiful.  While it was intended to be a Valentines themed set, the cards are not so overtly Valentines that they couldn't be used for other things.  These are the cards as they were designed, but if you check back over the next couple of weeks, I'll be sharing some alternate design samples as well.

Next month's Paper Pumpkin kit, Sunshine and Smiles, will allow you to create nine fun and cheerful cards that are sure to spread joy and happiness.  Subscribe by February 10 to make sure you get in on this mailing.

I don't know about it you, but it seems like I can always use a sympathy card.  I had my open house this past weekend, and this was one of the cards we did as a make and take.  I love the ocean, and so this bundle called to me right away.  Here's a another view from the side, and you can see where I used the pearls on the inside of the clam:

This card has a few more steps, but as a sympathy card, you often want to put a little more into the design anyway.

#SimpleStamping Friday: Beautifully Happy

Today's #SimpleStamping Friday card is truly a simple stamping card.  It uses the new Beautifully Happy set from the January-April catalog.  This is a two step stamping set, so this card was easily created with a few ink pads and some quick stamping.  Certainly, this card, could easily be dressed up a little with a few rhinestones, but the point of this design was to keep it simple, so simple it is.

Christmas cards are fun to create, but it is always fun to make the shift away from red and green into more spring-like colors.  This card features the Framed Florets bundle. I used the frame from the die sets and then stamped and die cut some of the flowers to place around the outside edge.  It was fairly quick to put together and would work well for multiple occasions.
