Happy April friends! It's the first Sunday of the month, and that means we have a brand new challenge at Jaded Blossom.

For the month of April, our challenge is:

SYMPATHY

(must use at least one Jaded Blossom Product)

Challenge Guidelines:

1) Project must be new for this challenge, no back linking

2) Project must have a Jaded Blossom stamp, die, or stencil somewhere on it.

3) Only one entry per person

4) Add your card to the Facebook April 2026 Challenge Album by Saturday, 05/02/2026

You don't have to have a blog to play along! You can upload your card to the Challenge Album in the Jaded Blossom's Garden of Creativity Facebook Group.

Click on "Media" > "Albums". Find the challenge album for the month and click on it. Then click "Add Photos". After you upload your card to the challenge album, refresh your page, and leave a comment under your card for it to show up on the Discussion page.

*********************************

Even though in life we have to deal with losing loved ones, I struggle making Sympathy cards. Usually I buy them because I honestly don't own very many sympathy stamp sets. I decided to pull out this Lavender Stamp Set that I've owned for a while, but haven't inked up yet. I stamped the flowers using Distress Oxide Ink and Memento Ink onto wet watercolor paper.

Then I sprinkled some Lindy's Magical Powder over the card and spritzed with water. The sentiment is from Thinking Of You Stamp Set.

I have a bonus sympathy card to share using the Lilies Stamp Set. This stamp set is actually retired, but I didn't realize that until after I made the card. So, if you already own this set, here is some additional inspiration.

This month's prize for a randomly selected winner is:

Jaded Blossom: JUST SITTING HERE THINKING OF YOU

Happy Friday everyone! This month we had an awesome Bee/Spring Release at Jaded Blossom. I know I say it every time, but I think it was one of my favorite releases of all time! The Tree Swing Die is such a fabulous addition to my collection, and I just had to add a cute penguin! Isn't she the sweetest penguin ever?!!

To create the penguin, I used Gnome Friends: Penguin Die and Penguin Faces Stamp Set. The sentiment is from the Relax Stamp Set.

Remember, we have a current "ANYTHING GOES" Challenge until May 31st for a chance at winning a free stamp set! You don't have to have a blog to play along. You can load your card to the Jaded Blossom's Garden of Creativity Facebook Group and then add your link from Facebook to the Blog Post. There are instructions HERE to help you!

Have a great weekend!

Jaded Blossom March 2025 Mini Stamp Release Day 2!

Happy Tuesday Friends! It's time for the Jaded Blossom March Stamp Release Blog Hop! All new items are NOW available for purchase! Click HERE to shop. If you're here from Lee-Ann's Blog, you're in the right place. If you're just passing through start at the beginning because you don't want to miss a thing. I also have the complete line up at the bottom.

I found an amazing video tutorial from Kristina Werner creating 4 gorgeous sunset backgrounds using Distress Oxide Inks which I followed to create these 4 cards. I think they turned out so pretty! I used the new Thinking Of You Stamp Set and Everyday Vertical Greetings Stamp Set with VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink.
