Stampin Up wedding/anniversary card made by demo Beth McCullough.  Shop 24/7 and see more card and gift ideas at https://stampingmom.com/kylies-august-blog-hop  #stampingmom #cute&simple4u

I had a friend who wanted a wedding card in the style of Leanne Ford. First I had to figure out who Leanne Ford is… so I looked her up and found she has collections at Crate & Barrel and Target. A lot of her items are Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla and clean and simple. My favorite card to make is Bermuda Bay and Magenta Madness, bright and happy cards, so I knew I need to scale it back a bit.

I did all of these with Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla and retired Ivory cardstock. Some of the hearts are from the Heart Punch Pack and others from the Stitched Be Mine dies.

The new Wrapped in Texture embossing folder is how I added texture to the hearts and then I sponged a splatter of Crumb Cake on them.

I was looking at my niece’s wedding registry and she had many items that also looked like the style of Leanne Ford. Maybe if I give her one of these cards, she’ll think I’m totally on top of the fashion trend!

Enjoy all the other blogs on the hop today. Thanks for joining us!

Pet Sympathy

Stampin Up Pet Sympathy card made by demo Beth McCullough.  Please see more card and gift ideas at www.StampingMom.com/pet-sympathy #StampingMom #cute&simple4u #simplestamping

Pups give us so much unconditional love and it’s so sad when they pass away. My pups are 11 and 13 and are the only ones we’ve had, so I haven’t experienced this since I was a kid. Maya is our family dog and Molly is my dog. Don’t get me wrong, she loves our family but she makes it clear that I’m number one. After raising four kids and two dogs, it makes my heart happy to be solidly number one with someone. 🙂 Speaking of hearts, did you notice the heart charm around her neck, how cute are these Playful Pet Trinkets?!

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge!  I love being a designer for Festive Friday and this week’s challenge #FF0065 is National Dog Day (August 26th). The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE or more of the items in your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge  I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us. If you want help entering, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d be happy to help you!

I used red, black, stripes, heart, paw print, dog, embossing off the Inspo List. Pick 3 off the list, make something and enter our Festive Friday Challenge. What are you waiting for?

My sweet friend’s pup, Bristol, did pass away recently and I got started making these Pet Sympathy cards for her. I tried to make this pup look as much like Bristol as I could.

I don’t know anyone I need to send a Cat Sympathy card, but this kitty from the Playful Pets Designer Series Paper (DSP) is so cute I couldn’t resist. I tend to make three or four similar cards at a time and then I have a card ready when I need it. Do you do that too?

My husband, Steve, had his fourth and final surgery since November 2019 and he is happy to be done. He’s on the road to recovery and hopeful he will be able to run again. Thanks for praying for him.

Our oldest son, Sean, moved from Seattle, WA to Austin, TX last week with a long pit stop this summer in West Des Moines. We were blessed to have him here and enjoyed many games of Euchre and lots of family dinners. He also did a great job taking care of our lawn this summer. It’s never looked so good! With Steve’s knee bummed up, I will need to learn how to mow the lawn again. Austin will be a great place for Steve and I to visit this winter. 🙂

Blessings,

Beth
