Hello

 

Welcome to the start of a new week, it's raining a little so I'm thinking it may be an inside day!  I'm doing a drive by post to share a card that I created using sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts challenge #645. I just pulled random papers from my stash as I was using the plaid sheet as my base, it is from Recollections,  I used a really old Richard Garay stamp and die set for the telephone, added a stamped sentiment and a few gems and this card was done!  

I am sharing this card for the September Anything Goes challenge over at Die Cut Divas and Crafts Galore Encore #139.  You too can visit these blogs for more inspiration!

Thank you for your visit, take care and hurry back again soon.

CIU #338 - That's Funny

 Hello Friday, although it has been a short work week it has felt long!  Today's project share was created for the Cut it Up challenge blog.  The theme for challenge #338 is That's Funny, the challenge was to create something humorous; and for me that was indeed a challenge!   While sorting and de-cluttering my stash I  found some older never before used Sizzix Tim Holtz stamp and die sets so I decided to use the Cat Chat set.  The embossing folder was a part of the set too,  stamped and cut the cat, popped it on a polaroid die cut and added to the embossed layer. I used some glittered  letter stickers for the sentiment and this card was done! 

I am sharing this card for the monthly Anything Goes using a die challenge over at A Cut Above and the Just Us Girls challenge 3791 - Die Week.

I hope that you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration, create and share your humorous project using a die cut.  The challenge starts today and ends Monday, September15, 2025 at noon PST.

Thank you for your visit, all the best to you and yours.  I hope you will visit again soon.

Happy Thoughts

 

Hello Sunday, lots of birthdays and reasons to share some uplifting thoughts!  Today's card share is one created using sketch inspiration from one of the Throwback Sketches over at Sketch N Scrap.  I shopped my stash and used a die from the Sizzix Let Love Grow set and some papers from a Bella Blvd 6x8 paper pad.  I stamped the sentiment using a Woodware stamp set.  I am also sharing this card for a plant themed challenge hosted on YT and IG and the Word Art Wednesday challenge for Weeks 714-715.  This card is done and will be going postal on Tuesday!

Thank you for your visit, take care and continue to enjoy your holiday weekend!

Back 2 School

 

Hello Tuesday,  today I am sharing a card that I created for the Just Us Girls Mood Board challenge #789.

Sunday Musings

 Hello Sunday, doing a quick drive by post to share this anniversary card that I created.  I used more scraps of paper and sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts challenge #643 and a sentiment die that was gifted to me many years ago and this was my first time using it.  I finished the card by adding some enamel hearts from Bo Bunny.  This card is going postal tomorrow to someone celebrating their anniversary on Saturday, I hope it make it in time!

Thank you for your visit, continue to be safe and hurry back soon.

CiU #337 - Anything Goes

 Hello, happy Friday and let the weekend begin!  Today's card share is my latest project for the Cut it Up challenge blog. The theme for challenge #337 is Anything Goes, my original intent was to create a layout but as life would have it that didn't happen.  For my card I decided to use one of the Roots themed Brutus Monroe Creative Cards as my focal point.  I distressed the edges of one layer, used a cover plate die for the next layer and added the matted focal point.  I used a Prima glittered flower, some Recollections flowers with Stampin' Up gems and a stamp and die set from scrapbook.com for the sentiment.  Another card done and ready to go postal!

I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration, create and share your Anything Goes project using a die. The challenge starts today and ends Monday, September 1, 2025 at noon PST.

Thank you for your visit continue to be safe and hurry back again soon.
