Save your spot for my August Card Class today!

Today’s card is a clean and simple layout that sends a lovely message and it uses a Designer Series Paper that is part of our Sale this month, the Beautiful Ordinary Life Designer Series Paper (167553).

I love the patterns in this paper pack there is such a variety to choose from, making it a wonderful choice since each paper gives you a different feel for your project.

The sentiment from the Extraordinary Life stamp set (167713) is stamped in Golden Glow for a bolder sentiment it pulls out the Daffodil Delight strip from this paper.

And the cute little embellishments, Dreamy Flowers (167916) gives it some fun texture and interest too. I love the way we can mix and match our products!

What do you think? Can you see using this layout and paper for your projects? Why not stop by my Online Store and check out all the products included in this month’s sale?

Thoughtful Octopus

Posted on August 5, 2026 by Stamp with Jini

Today’s card uses the fun little Thoughtful Octopus Stamp set (Online Exclusive 167955)

This fun little set contains cute little two step images and all occasions sentiments.

Today’s card is also done using our very popular In Color Hydrangea Hue and highlights the fun patterns that are part of the 2026-2028 In Color Painted Patterns Designer Series Paper (167755) which has fun bold patterns. The Stylish Shapes Dies (159183) that were used to cut out this fellow are perfect for this project and repeat the circle images from the Designer Series Paper. A great basic die set I reach for all the time!

A bit of our Hydrangea Hue 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon (167549) adds some texture and the fun little Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels (158987) add some shine.

I have a soft spot in my heart for these little guys after getting a chance to learn about them and interact with them during a trip a few years ago.

You’ll love this special Glow of Specialty Harvest Designer Series Paper for just $5 when you order. And of course if you missed a Product of the Month from past months that are still available you can choose from those too.

Want more than one month’s Product of the Month and have a big order? Why not create two different orders and get both? It’s an extra step, but when you place two orders you can use the Rewards on your second order from the first order you placed if you’d like. That makes it a win win situation and doesn’t cost any more in postage either!
