Share the Love

 Hello and Happy Heart Health Month!  Doing a quick drive by post as I've been extremely busy  just trying to maintain.  Today's card was created using sketch inspiration from an My Favorite Things sketch.  I committed to sending cards to some widows this year as part of my participation in a card group on FB.  I used more papers that have been in my stash for years, a Spellbinders heart die, a MFT banner die for the sentiment and finished by adding a Recollections heart sticker.  I am sharing this card for the February Anything Goes challenge over at A Cut Above and challenge #540 Crafty Remnants over at Shopping Our Stash.  My remnant was the glitter paper still out on my desk from Christmas projects!

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

Hello and happy Friday, let the weekend begin!  Yes it is Winter but this week has been really cold, a different kind of cold.  I'm back to share my latest design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog, the theme for challenge #322 is have a heart.

 Hello and happy Monday, a new work week and a chance to do and be better!  Doing a quick drive by post to share another card, I hope to get my New Years cards in the mail by the end of the week.

CIU #321 - Something New

 

Hello and happy cold Friday, it's has been a week of challenges but nothing like what's going on in Southern California.  Today's card share is my design team project for challenge #321 over at the Cut it Up challenge blog.  The theme for this challenge is  Something New.  I chose to use a stamp and die set that I received for a Christmas gift from one of my co-workers.  

I used the Concord and 9th We Go Together stamp and die set, with some miscellaneous papers, added a Recollections enamel heart and some Gina Marie enamel dots and this card was done.  This stamp and die set has lots of other elements so I'll be using it again soon! I am sharing this card for the January Anything Goes challenge over at A Cut Above.

I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more design team inspiration, create and share your project using some newly added or never before used dies from your stash.  The challenge starts today and ends Monday, January 20, 2025 at noon PST.

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