Season's Greetings

 

Hello Sunday, doing another drive by post to share another card created for a holiday card swap.  I have just a few more cards to be done and I hope to get them in the mail to the organizer by Tuesday.  For today's card I used sketch inspiration from Try a Sketch on Tuesday challenge #683, some papers sitting on my desk from one of my waiting to be completed projects, a Sizzix die for the tree, a stamped sentiment and some gems from Spellbinders.  This is one of those card where you have mixed feelings about the outcome, we'll see if it makes the final cut!

Thank you for your visit, take care and I hope you'll visit again soon.

Celebrate the Season

 

Hello and happy Friday, although we are less than a week away from Thanksgiving, I am sharing a recently created Christmas card.  I created this card using sketch inspiration from Sketch and Scrap card sketch #291 and random papers from my stash.  Finished by adding a bow, gem and stamped sentiment; I am participating in a card swap so this one will be included! I am sharing this card for Christmas/Winter challenge #131 over at  Craft Rocket Challenges.

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

Sending Happy Thoughts

 

Hello Thursday, I'm doing a quick driveby post to share a post that I had started some time ago and never finished.  This card has been gone postal and should have been received as it was created for a FB card group.  I used some random  papers that have been sitting on my desk as I am trying to finish using some 6x6 pads that only have a few sheets remaining.  The umbrella die is  from a  Pretty Pink Posh set and the fabric flowers are from Recollections.  Added some gems to the flower centers and a stamped sentiment and this card was done!  I am sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenges for Weeks #726-727 over at Word Art Wednesday and the monthly Anything Goes challenge over at A Cut Above.

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

Tuesday Musings

 

Hello and happy Tuesday, doing a quick drive by post to share another card.  I created this card using sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts challenge #656, some papers from the scrapbook.com Merry patterned collection. I cut the poinsettia from a Sizzix die set, the sentiment from a Doodlebug Designs die set and finished by adding a few gems. I'm sharing this card for the Just Us Girls Word Week #801 Winter challenge.

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

CIU #343 - Favorite Color

 Hello Friday, let the weekend begin! Today’s card was created for challenge #343 over at  Cut it Up  for the favorite color theme. I have more than one favorite color but my most favorite color is red! This signature clean and simple card came together nicely once the pattern paper was chosen;  The polka dot piece of paper came from an old Craft Smith 6x6 pad called Peppermint Twist.  I used the Tim Holtz Sizzix Bow Tied  Colorize die with the addition of a gem for the center and  a Tim Holtz label sticker for the sentiment. Although I don't use it often this is one of my favorite die sets!

I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration, create and share your project using your favorite color. The challenge starts today and ends Monday, November 24, 2025 at noon PST.

Thank you for your visit, be well and continue to be safe. I hope you will return soon!

Sunday Musings

 Hello and happy Sunday, doing a quick drive by post as I still have some chores that I need to do. I put this card together using sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts challenge #654.  I made my mini slimline card using a 6x6 piece of paper folded in half for the base. I used random scrap papers from my stash, some Crafter's Square dimensional stickers and a sentiment from scrapbook.com.  The card came together nicely but this is not one that will be going postal, I would hand deliver it! I am sharing this card  for the Anything Goes challenge for weeks #724-725 over at Word Art Wednesday and on IG for two challenges hosted on YT.

Thank you for your visit, take care and enjoy your holiday if you have tomorrow off! Hurry back soon.

Hello Wednesday

 

Hello, sun shining and I am doing a drive by post before heading into work. Today's card share is one that I created using the Mickey and Friends Cricut cartridge, some Echo Park paper, a sentiment die from scrapbook.com; finished by adding a few star shaped gems.  I made this card for a special little girl who loves mickey and is learning her alphabet so the inside sentiment reads:  M is for Mickey and Minnie! I am sharing this card for the monthly Anything Goes challenge over at A Cut Above.

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

Sunday Musings

 

Hello Sunday evening, doing a quick drive by post to share a card that I created this weekend. I used sketch inspiration form Atlantic Hearts challenge #1653 and a piece of pattern paper from a paper pad that was sitting on my desk from a recently created project.  Cut the snowflakes using two different die sets and the sentiment is a Sizzix TH die set; hard to see in the picture but  I added vellum to the oval opening.  Each snowflake also has a glittered gem in the center. 

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