Hello and a special happy Thursday to you!
I’m super excited to announce a new brand is coming to Create and Craft television: My Sentiments Exactly!
This 20-year-old American company is known for creating beautiful sentiment stamps, perfect for cardmaking. I’ve long loved (and bought!) MSE stamps because their elegant, heartfelt messages strike just the right balance for me—and I love the clear, timeless fonts they use. I’m still using MSE stamps that I bought ten or 15 years ago!
Can you see why I’m so excited? We kick things off TODAY—Thursday, June 20 at 9:00 and 15:00 on Create and Craft, with loads of demos, tips, tricks and of course, showcasing these stamps which are exclusive to the channel. You can watch from anywhere in the world, either on television or via the internet.
In the meantime, take a look at just one of the cards I’ll be demonstrating this week:
Friendship card, featuring the My Sentiments Exactly Floral Friends stamp set. Here’s the stamp set:
Here’s how to make the card. First, stamp the flower with black ink onto white cardstock. Stamp “friendship” above and the coordinating sentiment below.
Use colored pencils to color the flower blue and the leaves and stem green.
Cut a piece of cream card slightly larger than the focal piece and stamp just the edges with the flower motif. Don’t worry about the center.
Ink the edges of the floral mat with black, then mount on white card and glue to the front of a kraft card. Mat a strip of black card onto cream, then black, then glue to the card front.
Mount the stamped focal on black card. then glue to the card center. Add a bow tied in check ribbon.
I hope you can join in the fun on Create and Craft! The shows are on Thursday, June 20 at 9:00 and 15:00, and I’ll be sure to share demos plus lots of stamping tips and ideas. You can watch from anywhere in the world, either on television or via the internet on Create and Craft.
Hope to see you there!
Beautiful cards. I watched you Paperwishes. It is not the same without you. Your name is still on the Awards and Achievements page “says Sara Naumann, Vice President of Sales and Marketing”. Are you still the VP there?
Hi Reva, thanks for your kind words. The webisodes were great fun to do, and I still miss them! 🙂 No, I’m no longer with Paper Wishes, as I left about 7 years ago…but I still do some work with them from time to time. Take care and hope you have a lovely day! Sara
