For the start of summer I'm currently sitting on a couch at my MIL house scratching the cat behind the ears and watching cardmaking videos. Next week I have to go back to work so I'm enjoying the moment 😊
Your friends will love their cards! Start of summer plans? Mowing. Then, maybe mowing. And into the fall......yep, more mowing. Sometime in there I'd like to make some cards. Maybe on rainy days.
Some craft videos I watch while I’m crafting. Not yours! I might miss something hilarious!!! I hope your finals went well! I love the look of these cards & look forward to trying these techniques! For the beginning of summer, I plan to duct tape my husband to a chair after he gets his gall bladder out! This grandma knows how to party!!! 😂😂😂
Love your new stamp set and your beautiful card! When I go to the beach I like to sit in a nice comfortable beach chair and read a book while listening to the calming waves!
Love the bright colors on these graduation cards and the addition of the dots. So far our plans for summer include my son's wedding, granddaughter's birthday, choir party, trip to a Lakeside resort with family and lots of gardening.
Yay, glad you found your missing stamp! We all have lost a stamp only to find that it stuck to something we laid down on the stamp. lol Love how vibrant your grad cards are, so pretty and colorful and perfect for those going out into the world to start their new lives. I have no plans for the start of summer besides mowing, reading outside and making cards. Hugs, Brenda
Going to Ohio to meet our new grandson for the first time. Our daughter was finally able to get a child after many years of trying. He's 2 years old & just adorable! The cards you made are beautiful!
My mom & I have wild plans for the summer--YARD WORK! :P And finishing the vinyl flooring installation in our kitchen. :P :P And fixing the surround on one of our raised gardens where we discovered that all the timbers rotted. :P :P :P Yeah--fun times all around--especially in the heat & humidity of Texas in the summer! LOL I do love how your cards came out, Rina, & I'm sorry your friends are leaving. Hopefully y'all can still keep in touch. Good luck with your 6-day course, too. Take care, & have an awesome day! :)
Adding the white dots really made the card pop. Always love when you put a video up. My sons are home from college so will be enjoying spending the summer with them.
LOVE your beautiful dotted vines. That little detail adds so much! Your friends will adore their cards and keep them for ever. Sounds like they are definitely card-worthy, even though they are leaving you for the real world. I plan to start the summer with a garden party and some grilling! Fingers crossed for the weather to cooperate.
We are going with our RV group from church, Heavenly Wheels 😬, to Kidder Creek. We will be leaving in the morning. We go there to fix things and spruce up the camp to get it ready for kids to attend over the summer. It’s a great place with swimming, horseback riding, zip lines and sooo much more. We do this every year. That’s how we start our summer. I love the dots on your card! I never would have thought to do that. It makes all the difference! We have missed you!
Cool effect with the white gel pen!!! I especially love the second stencil you used....but they are both beautiful and I love the color combo. LOL glad you found your missing stamp....hee hee hee. The cards came out perfect. As for my plnas for the start of Summer.....craft, craft, and more crafting.....I don't have a life...LOL :) Hugs...Janie
Love the colors. Glad you are back!!!! This summer will be spent spending time with grandkids. Baseball, T-ball and soccer for the grandsons and volleyball practice for the grand daughter. Love watching all of them play their sports. And of course the pool!!!! Have a great summer!!!
No vacay due to debilitating medical issues, trying my best to conquer them. Summer/fall goal is organizing the craft room, and watching videos like yours!
Love your cards! It's always hard when your friends leave you to start their lives. My son had that problem when he graduated college and some of his teammates were still in college, my son ran cross country and track for 8 years. He really wanted to find a job near his college to be close to his friends but he finally realized, with the help of myself and dad that they'd be gone in another year or two to start their own lives. So he got a job in another state and within 6 months a teammate was an hour away from him so we knew his other teammate which was his roommate would be down in another 6 months as well since his girlfriend had moved there. Now he has his two best friends living near him! Now he's followed them to another part of the state so now they are only 30 minutes from each other and his brother his close as well. My husband and I live 5 1/2 hours away which is difficult :(. Our only summer plans is to visit our kids! We miss our 18 month old granddaughter so we plan to visit over July 4th weekend.
Going to graduate parties locally, Idaho and MN. In our spare time, we’ll stay home and enjoy relaxing on our pontoon boat. Bring on summer! Rina, both cards turned out so well. The rectangle looks better than the circle on the fuller stenciled backdrop.
Wow! These cards are fabulous! I love the added white dots. Someday, I’d like to see a full picture of your craft mat. It looks so pretty! 😉. Plans for kicking off the summer...nothing special. Just try to stay cool!
Love the white dots; they just make your stenciled backgrounds perfect! Keep studying and graduation will come at the right time for you! Summer is the perfect time for swimming here in Florida! Enjoy your summer too when you finish your May class.
Love those color combos! No plans, just getting through all the rain we have had lately and getting ready for the Texas heat that will undoubtedly be coming!
Love the fun, bright cards. Perfect for your friends. Love those colors. It hasn't been very summery like here. It's supposed to rain Saturday and Sunday. I plan on seeing the new spiderman movie with one or more of my older kids.
You are so very real! Don’t ever change. Love your grad cards! Since summer weather is not my friend, I am going to take the first part of this summer, stay in air conditioning and clean up my scrapbook/card making room. I’m running out of room quickly and so I’m going to go through my stash and decide which things I will donate to a church. By the way, the crystal drops you added helped immensely. Good job. Wish my Pom and yours could meet!
Love when Michy makes a cameo♥️ The cards are fantabulous!!! I think stencils are so much fun! My plans for the summer...I’m not a summer person...so I’ll be crafting a lot!
I love those cards! Great color combos. I'm taking a trip to Salt Lake City the beginning of summer to see my daughter who just started a new job there. She finally got to leave North Dakota for this new job & we're both super happy. She's now closer to home 😁
Beautiful cards! They were lovely before you added the white dots, then BAM! GORGEOUS! A whole 'nother dimension of beauty. I couldn't believe the difference. I love them both ways. My plans for the beginning of summer is a reorganization of my craft room. I shudder to think of HOW it's going to happen, but it has to be done!
I'm sure your friends will love the cards you made for them. +They are very bright and pretty! Summer plans...hmmmm, hope to visit my family in Rhode Island, enjoy my time off from babysitting the grandsons in June, then back to babysitting in July! I live in Florida so lots of beach and pool time too ! And of course, crafting !
WOW Rina 🙂 Your cards are amazing!!! Love those color palettes and the stencil! Graduation is such a bittersweet time for all involved ((hug)) We're in the process of reuniting our family at the beginning of this summer... Husband is a college prof who works in one state and I along with three of our adult children live in another. Long story but it'll be good to be together for the summer! Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
My plans for the summer will be lots of time with grands - and trying to complete my granddaughter's senior gift ... lol! I am making her a scrapbook capturing her life. Soooo - still lots to do before I am finished! Love your work ...
no sound effects this time on the reveal.......very pretty colors as well as the stencils. Liking the dots effects, super cool. Real pretty cards. Congrats your finals are over. Yah, you found your stamp, I've torn my room apart looking for lost stamps before. Your doggie is getting so big it has a pretty coat.
Your cards were lovely! I especially liked the colors you chose. I hope to spend time out at the pool this summer, go see my adorable grandkids, finish organizing the garage, then start on my office/craft room. Most of all, I plan to create more cards!!!
These are Beautiful cards and I especially like the addition of the white dots! Glad you made it thru Finals!👍 I am watching my grandkids play ball at the start of Summer,⚾️😎💕
Another great video Rina and your colors are so vibrant! 😉👍🏻I just love using the stencils and the pixie spray is genius! Plans for the beginning of summer.....my brother and sister in-law are coming to Alaska from Vermont to visit and I just can’t wait for them to explore Alaska with us! Lots of hiking, fishing, boating and bon fires on the beach😉AND.....crafting! OMGOODNESS....they both want to learn to stamp and make cards! Whoot Whoot!!👍🏻💜🏵🎨
Missed youi, dear Rina, but totally understand that you were "under a pile" of books and notes! Wonderful cards...love the color palette!! Glad you changed the circle to the strip! Looks great! My big plans for the start of summer is to finish up reorganizing my stampin' space and start playing again! Big project but will love it when all done. It's taking forever!! LOL
Good call on changing the shape for the sentiment on the one card. Love the dots and stenciling. We work on the yard & flower beds when summer/late spring starts.
Love how vibrant & CAS these cards are. We're planning to go to Sandbanks in southern Ontario. There's a very popular provincial park there & a number of resorts. Sand dunes in Ontario, who knew? Your dog is so pretty & looks like a cross between a Pomeranian & a German shepherd: impossible!
Plans to visit family in Oregon. Love your cards and the colors you chose. Glad you found your stamp. I go crazy when I lose something that was right in front of me!
Entertaining as EVER! The start of summer....well, it starts with a new roof, and ends with an Incubus concert! Everything in between is fluff. Good luck with school.
I’m recovering from surgery. My plans for summer are crafting, kayaking, a trip to New York and lastly a biopsy. I’m not looking forward to that last one. I love your cards! I’m so glad your back, I’ve really missed you!
The graduation cards are great! No big plans for summer, but maybe a trip over to beautiful Lake Tahoe for a day or two, and getting our front deck rebuilt.
I love the dots that you added to the stencilled images. Very pretty! To start my summer, I have just ordered a bunch of craft supplies and I am going to take some time to make a bunch of cards! Thanks for your inspiration
Love the cards. thanks for showing us how you did them. Will get to see my daughter, son-in-love and grandkids for a few days. Happy dance time. Also will go to the Cody Gun Show with our friends. Always have a blast.
Great cards -- love the color combination you used and those dots really made everything pop. I'm retired (translation: old), so my plans for the start of the summer are pretty much the same as my plans for every day of the year -- make cards and spend as much time as I can with my grandchildren.
Love the gel pen dots on the stenciled backgrounds. Really makes it POP! Summer plans.. maybe a trip to visit a friend in WI, get to shop at your mom's store too!
Rena, Soooo many things to do. I guess I will start with late spring cleaning, then gardens- flower and vegetable. Plus I have so many cards that I need to make and very little time. So as I said so many things. Thanks for sharing
Glad you're back! Love your cards and the colors you used. This summer I'm trying to get caught up with my scrapbooking, card making and crocheting. No vacation plans until winter.
I’ve decided, after getting our ac serviced so the Phoenix heat doesn’t dry me up like a dehydrated banana, to “get” another knee replaced in 6 weeks. 👍🏼🦵🏻👀😳 thanks for another inspiring video!! Love your spunkiness and puppy cutefullness! Donna Kozel.
As usual, your cards are too cool 😎! Don’t worry, you’ll be graduating in no time and you’ll be receiving the cards! My summer plans... I’m retired, so every day is vacation and the plans are to cruise in our new Slingshot (3-wheeled vehicle) and to be crafty!
very pretty and so easy, thanks for sharing. Welcome back, love your doggie!! Start of summer is to sit back , relax in my swing and look at my garden, then get ready for my trip to Italy, woot!woot!
Super excited for Summer. My daughter just graduated with Ministry degree and now she gets to spend more time with us lol. So proud of here. Good luck on your summer classes 😀
Pretty cards, love the background! The start of summer is graduation parties, have gone to 2 so far and a couple more coming up. Just hanging out at home probably and giving the bbq a workout. Did miss your videos, you bring a smile to my face! ❤️🥰
Gorgeous cards! Your videos brighten up my day! Summer is a little way off for me yet, as here in Australia, it’s Winter in 5 days! When summer comes, I’ll be taking long, daily walks to the beach! 🙂
Those are so cute! I love stencils. Must have the Pixy spray! Good luck with school! Getting ready to put up the swimming pool and planning a trip to Wisconsin Dells with the Family! That’s what our summer plans are! Stay cool!
Beautiful cards, Rina! My plans for early summer include planting my garden, which is in a cart that my hubby built, and also pulling rhubarb and making yummy dessert with it.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful cards. You are quite creative and so funny! I enjoy watching. What my summer plans are - I am headed up to Sedona Arizona to beat the heat in the valley. Can't wait! It is worth the trip especially if you haven't been before!
Love the cards! I really, really like the white dots! The time you spent doing it was worth it as it really kicked the cards up a notch. My plans for the beginning of summer include opening up our cottage in northern Michigan. I look forward to many hours of crafting at the lake!
I love color blending with stencils! My plans for the summer are start an art co-op (check-opened May 4th) and tackle my new front yard full of cow parsnip!
My plans for the summer is..surviving it!! Actually I'm retired now so I pretty much do or go when I want to..except of course when I have my grandkids and then I am told what to do or where to go by them. Gotta love them. Your graduations cards so pretty and colorful. I really like the use of the stencils on them.
loved loved loved your cards...how funny that you found the missing stamp since I was going to tell you just to look at the back of everything since you can pretty much guarantee that it is stuck on something....and it was LOL...it was crazy how much the white dots really made your design pop! Missed you so super happy u r back! I am going to do the same thing I do every summer...spend as much time with my grandkids as possible since they are out of school..
I am so sorry that your friends are moving on, but I am sure they will keep in touch. I loved the cards. The stencils and the colors you used were beautiful. My summer fun is on hold, because my husband just broke his arm, and can't do anything except watch westerns on TV.
So, So Pretty. Love the colors and stencils.No summer plans as of yet. I am married to a farmer and since it is so wet because of too much rain, nothing as of today (5/23/19) nothing has been planted. Hopefully soon we will be planting crops. Thank You for another great video.
Cute cards! I have to make a grad card for my niece. Thanks for the ideas! i have no plans for the summer. Just work, work, and more work. Hope to squeeze some creative card / jewelry making in there somewhere! : )
Beautiful cards Rina! Love the colours! Hubby and I are going on a train trip to western Canada for the month of June to start off our summer and to celebrate his retirement!!
For the start of summer I'm currently sitting on a couch at my MIL house scratching the cat behind the ears and watching cardmaking videos. Next week I have to go back to work so I'm enjoying the moment 😊

My big plans for the start of summer is to finish up reorganizing my stampin' space and start playing again! Big project but will love it when all done. It's taking forever!! LOL
The dots adds so much to the card. And headed to the beach!!
Good call on changing the shape for the sentiment on the one card. Love the dots and stenciling. We work on the yard & flower beds when summer/late spring starts.
Super cute cards! We’re putting up a huge pool and can’t wait to make fruity drinks and float!
Love how vibrant & CAS these cards are. We're planning to go to Sandbanks in southern Ontario. There's a very popular provincial park there & a number of resorts. Sand dunes in Ontario, who knew? Your dog is so pretty & looks like a cross between a Pomeranian & a German shepherd: impossible!
Lots of great reading of books, crafting and seeing family
The colors blends so nicely. I admire the perfect mix. Very pretty card. Thanks
Plans to visit family in Oregon. Love your cards and the colors you chose. Glad you found your stamp. I go crazy when I lose something that was right in front of me!
Pretty cards! This summer I am teaching my 5 year old granddaughter to swim.
Entertaining as EVER! The start of summer....well, it starts with a new roof, and ends with an Incubus concert! Everything in between is fluff. Good luck with school.
I’m recovering from surgery. My plans for summer are crafting, kayaking, a trip to New York and lastly a biopsy. I’m not looking forward to that last one. I love your cards! I’m so glad your back, I’ve really missed you!
I love the colors on your two cards! So cool. I am getting ready for a family celebration, and my 40th High School reunion at the start of summer!
Great cards and another great video. The first week of summer vacation our granddaughters, 7 & 5 will be spending it with us. Fun times!
Very pretty cards! Thank you for sharing. We kind of play things by ear, so no concrete summer plans.
The graduation cards are great!
No big plans for summer, but maybe a trip over to beautiful Lake Tahoe for a day or two, and getting our front deck rebuilt.
I love the dots that you added to the stencilled images. Very pretty!
To start my summer, I have just ordered a bunch of craft supplies and I am going to take some time to make a bunch of cards! Thanks for your inspiration
The minute I saw the swirls stencil, I hoped you would design with it. Gorgeous! Looking forward to jumping in a pool this summer.
Love the cards. thanks for showing us how you did them. Will get to see my daughter, son-in-love and grandkids for a few days. Happy dance time. Also will go to the Cody Gun Show with our friends. Always have a blast.

Love the gel pen dots on the stenciled backgrounds. Really makes it POP! Summer plans.. maybe a trip to visit a friend in WI, get to shop at your mom's store too!
Beautiful cards! The ink blends so well together. I'm hoping to start my summer by attending a rubber stamp show near St. Louis at the end of June.
Rena, Soooo many things to do. I guess I will start with late spring cleaning, then gardens- flower and vegetable. Plus I have so many cards that I need to make and very little time. So as I said so many things. Thanks for sharing
Fantastic cards! Gorgeous colors and I love the addition of the dots. I am looking forward to spending more time at our place up north.
Love your cards! My plans are to make cards, scrapbook, and go camping!!!

My plans have already begun with one nephews wedding and another nephews graduation. And a two week vacation in between! Beautiful cards Rina!
Such pretty cards, love the colors. Plans for the summer is to enjoy the beach, relax & soak up the sun.
Very pretty cards a different twist to traditional graduation cards. I am reorganizing my craft space.

Welcome back. Cool cards, great ideas for graduation cards. If it ever stops raining I want to get as much fresh air as I can.
Love the vibrant colors and the white accents! No plans for the summer yet...
Great card techniques I would have never thought of the dots, you are a genius !
I loved the colors you used and the cards came out beautifully. I am starting my summer by going to a glass blowing festival.
Beautiful cards, Rina! My plans for early summer include planting my garden, which is in a cart that my hubby built, and also pulling rhubarb and making yummy dessert with it.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful cards. You are quite creative and so funny! I enjoy watching. What my summer plans are - I am headed up to Sedona Arizona to beat the heat in the valley. Can't wait! It is worth the trip especially if you haven't been before!
No summer plans I'm pretty boring lol..love these cards! Simple that's how I roll. Want that graduation stamp set.
Very fun colours and the white gel pen dots really add to the design. We plan to spend some time at our cottage this summer.
Love the cards! I really, really like the white dots! The time you spent doing it was worth it as it really kicked the cards up a notch. My plans for the beginning of summer include opening up our cottage in northern Michigan. I look forward to many hours of crafting at the lake!
I love color blending with stencils! My plans for the summer are start an art co-op (check-opened May 4th) and tackle my new front yard full of cow parsnip!
Beautiful cards!!! My plans are to just hang out with whatever comes along! :)
My plans for the summer is..surviving it!! Actually I'm retired now so I pretty much do or go when I want to..except of course when I have my grandkids and then I am told what to do or where to go by them. Gotta love them. Your graduations cards so pretty and colorful. I really like the use of the stencils on them.
loved loved loved your cards...how funny that you found the missing stamp since I was going to tell you just to look at the back of everything since you can pretty much guarantee that it is stuck on something....and it was LOL...it was crazy how much the white dots really made your design pop! Missed you so super happy u r back! I am going to do the same thing I do every summer...spend as much time with my grandkids as possible since they are out of school..
I am so sorry that your friends are moving on, but I am sure they will keep in touch. I loved the cards. The stencils and the colors you used were beautiful. My summer fun is on hold, because my husband just broke his arm, and can't do anything except watch westerns on TV.
So, So Pretty. Love the colors and stencils.No summer plans as of yet. I am married to a farmer and since it is so wet because of too much rain, nothing as of today (5/23/19) nothing has been planted. Hopefully soon we will be planting crops. Thank You for another great video.
Great cards! I will be house/critter sitting for 3 friends, in their homes. I will be really glad to be in my own home afterwards.
Cute cards! I have to make a grad card for my niece. Thanks for the ideas! i have no plans for the summer. Just work, work, and more work. Hope to squeeze some creative card / jewelry making in there somewhere! : )
Beautiful cards Rina! Love the colours! Hubby and I are going on a train trip to western Canada for the month of June to start off our summer and to celebrate his retirement!!
