Smooth Sailing for the Blog Hop

 

Welcome to the Pals’ May  Blog Hop. We’re so glad you’re here because we made some great projects with “More Than One Score.” You may be starting the hop here or coming from a previous Pal’s blog. Either way, you’ve come to the right place. You’ll find the full line-up below to help you move, or “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

 

Summer time will be around the corner before we know it.  I just watching the sailboats on the water.  It is wonderful how they navigate as they bob on the water.  I added the Blue Heron as a touch of interest.

Our theme for this Blog Hop is a card fold. I choose an Easel Card.  Normally we all seem to see the traditional Sympathy card, but I thought this would be different to create an Easel.  Perfect to put on display with all the other beautiful cards that are given.  Giving a special handmade card that is created for them gives extra meaning.

Favorite Season Means Something

 

 

Do you have a favorite season?  I think our choice of favorite seasons influences our choices of stamp sets.  For me I love the birds which means I love spring. So when we have bird stamps I gravitate to them.  One that I absolutely love is the Petal Palette which will be retiring.

I think I love the spring is because after a long winter in Iowa spring means a rebirth and everything turns green and animals come out of hiding. The geese return and goslings appear on the banks of the creek.   If you take the time there is so much to observe.

A Visit to the Country

Masking

 

It is time to visit the country where everything is in bloom. Just close your eyes and take a magical stroll through a beautiful country garden. Maybe in the French countryside.  Take a deep breathe and smell the fragrant flowers.  I think our Stampin’ Up! Country Home is a close second to the actual stroll.  The milk container really adds to the country charm.  So go ahead and say Hello to that special friend.

I choose to use some beautiful colors that give a country feel.  I used Blueberry Bushel, Balmy Blue, Mango Melody, and a touch of Highland Heather.  So  for this week’s Color Challenge use the Blueberry Bushel, Balmy Blue, Mango Melody.  Maybe adding the Buffalo stamp set if you wish.  The Buffalo Check makes me think of the tablecloth mother would spread out on the picnic table. It was red and not blue, but that doesn’t matter.  Any color with that pattern gives a country feel.

This is is an easy card because it simply stamping and cutting. The milk container and flowers will need to be fussy cut. Just color them before cutting them.  I think this is a stamp set you will love and find using it all the time.  Order your Country Home stamp set now by clicking here https://www.stampinup.com/ecweb/product/147678/country-home-photopolymer-stamp-set while you are ordering don’t forget al,l the reired items and the clearnace items. There are a lot of great items in there to order.

Before we get into the details of the card, I want to share my rough weekend which was not has rough as little Noah.  Noah has been fighting a cold which went into RSVP.  They admitted him to the hospital on Friday.  At about 2 0’clock Saturday morning the alarms went off and shook his parents out their sleep and sent the nurses running. His oxygen had plummeted.  So he was immediately rush to ICU.  I awoke to the ringing of my phone shortly after 6 o’clock.  So I have been at the hospital this weekend.  In case you don’t know he is 5 weeks old.  As of Sunday afternoon,  he was moved back to general pediatrics and the oxygen was totally removed on Monday.
