Bee You

 Hello and happy Sunday, doing a quick drive by post to share another recently created card.  Today’s card was created using sketch inspiration from Sketch N Scrap card sketch #286. When putting this card together I used mostly Honey Bee Stamp products along with alcohol markers for the coloring. I will also be sharing this card for the 2Crafters1Design  bee themed challenge hosted on the YT and IG.

CIU #333 - Critters

 Hello Friday and welcome weekend!  It has been extremely hot which makes for a short temper and lack of patience.  Today's project share is my design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog, the theme for challenge #333 is critters.  I used sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts challenge #635, papers from a Recollections paper pad, an arch nested die set, some dragonflies that have been sitting on my desk for some time waiting to be used! Used a Hero Arts stamp for the sentiment, added some Gina Marie enamel dots and this card was done.

Now that you've seen my project I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration. Create and share your critter project using a die cut, the challenge starts today and ends Monday, July7, 2025 at noon PST.

Thank you for your visit, stay cool if you're in a heat advisory area.  I hope you'll visit again soon.

Monday Musings

 It's Monday night and time for bed and I am just sharing this post!  Life has really been "lifing" and I am  feeling like we just can't catch a break and to top it off we are under an extreme heat advisory this week.  Today's card share is a clean and simple card created using sketch inspiration from Freshly Made Sketches #691, papers and anchor embellishment from Creative Memories and enamel dots from Gina Marie Designs.  I think I'll hold on to this card for a minute because I'm needing a little encouragement myself!

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

CIU #332 - Masculine

 

Hello and happy Friday, back today with my latest design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog. The t theme for challenge #332 is masculine and it came together nicely.  I used the postage stamp collage die again, cut it apart and stamped the images and added them to the card with the sentiment and a few gems.  I used a Sizzix alphabet diet set for the sentiment, this card could be used for multiple occasions. I am sharing this card for the June challenge #136 over at Cards Galore

Wednesday Musings

 

Hello and happy Wednesday evening, doing a quick drive by post to share a card that I recently created to share with someone that recently lost their mother.  I created this card using sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts challenge #633, all white with just a hint of color.  I used a TH Sizzix layered plaid die set, a Brutus Monroe stamp and die set for the lily, a Woodware stamp for the sentiment and finished  by adding some faux pearl gems

Thank you for your visit, continue to be safe and hurry back soon; I will be back on Friday with my latest design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog.

Your’re so Sweet

 

Hello Monday, doing a quick drive by post to share a card that I put together over the weekend. I really like how it came out but I am not sure about cutting all those strawberries again; this was my first time using this particular die set. I also used a scalloped edge frame die, a scrapbook.com die set for the sentiment and a few tiny CTMH gems. I am sharing this card for the You Are so Sweet  challenge #549 over at Shopping Our Stash and the June Anything Goes monthly challenge over at A Cut Above challenge blog.

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

Summer Fun

 

Hello and happy Saturday, it has been a while but I'm still pushing and trying create and share as life permits.  Today's card share is one that I created to share for the crafty dares challenge over on IG.  The challenge was to use the colors red, white and blue; summer theme and the third dare was crafter's choice.  I chose to use my postage collage die, this is becoming one of my favorites, I also used the Sizzix Time to Travel  die set  for the first time, it has been in my stash for a few years and the crab was a freebie with purchase die from scrapbook.com.  I am sharing this card for the Just Us Girls challenge #778 Die Week - Layers.

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