CIU #354 - Baby or Kids

 

Happy Friday and hello weekend! Today's card share was created for the Cut it Up challenge blog; the theme for challenge #354 is to create a baby or kid themed project. I created this Lego themed birthday card using a circle die, it would have been easier with a punch! The sentiment was cut with a Sizzix die set.

I am sharing this card over at Word Art Wednesday for their Anything Goes challenge for weeks 746-747 and the Anything Goes challenge #274 over at Lil Patch of  Crafty Friends.

I hope that you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration, create and share your baby or kid themed project. The challenge starts today and ends Monday, April 13, 2026 at noon PST. Don't forget to use a die cut on your project.

Thank you for your visit, enjoy your holiday weekend and hurry back again soon.

Thursday Musings

 Hello Thursday, I am so over this Winter weather. The icee won’t melt so it is making for dangerous driving conditions and fall risks. Today I am sharing a card that I created for one of the nurses that won a daisy award. She won it because one of the patients parents was impressed with the level of care she provided. I put the card together using a stamp and die set,  paper from a scrapbook.com paper  pad,  and a Spellbinders die for the sentiment. Finished by adding some CTMH sequins and it was done. I am sharing this card over at A Cut Above for their Anything Goes monthly challenge and the January Anything Goes challenge over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends.

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

Wednesdayy Musings

 Hello and happy Wednesday,  just doing a quick drive by post as it seems I never seem to find the time to share.  Today's card was created because I wanted to use my postage stamp die and some other things that I had pulled out to work on some challenges.  I 've had these Paper Studio stickers in my stash for some years so I decided to use them for a women's accessories challenge over on IG.  This one will sit in my stash for a few months until it is ready to go postal to a special friend!  I am sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenge #262 over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends and the May, Anything Goes challenge over at A Cut Above die cut challenge blog.

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

CIU #324 - Tie it Up

 

Hello and happy Friday, it has been a winter weather week.  I have worked from home the past two days but it’s back in the office today.  

Today's project share is my project for the Cut it Up challenge blog, the theme for challenge #324 is Tie it Up.  We were to use string, twine or ribbon.  When putting my card together I went through my stash looking for a Spring themed paper pad, I pulled out a very old American Crafts 6x6 paper pad called Spring and used two different patterns, cut a vellum oval using a die and a Darice die to cut the flowers. I tied a bow using a piece of ribbon that i received in a swap recently, stamped and die cut the sentiment using a Spellbinders set.  The gems used for the flower centers were included in the swap as well.  I am sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenge #248 over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends.

Now that you've seen my Tie it Up project, I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration; create and share your own project.  The challenge starts today and ends Monday, March 2, 2025 at noon PST.

Tuesday Musings

 Hello and happy Tuesday, more warm temps in today's forecast.  Doing a drive by post to share another card created using inspiration from a Stick it Down challenge hosted on FB.  I used mostly paper scraps from my stash and a TH butterfly die and a stamped sentiment and this card was done! I really like it as I have been trying to use that piece of paper for while. I'm sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenge #235 over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends and the Just Because challenge #529 over at Shopping Our Stash.

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

 Hello and happy thankful Thursday, my heart still aches from what happened in Washington yesterday. I will continue to lift our country and the people in prayer. It’s cold now bu the forecast calls for temps in the low 50s today.  Today’s card share is one that I created after watching another one of Natasha’s YT videos.  It is my interpretation of a floating element card, I used strips of paper from the My Mind's Eye Well Hello 6x6 paper pad, a. Spellbinders circle die and a Scrapping Cottage butterfly die, a stamped sentiment and a few gems finished this card, which is going postal today!  I am sharing this card for challenge #149 over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends and challenge #54  January Anything Goes over at Love to Craft challenge blog.

Sweet Birthday

 

Hello and happy Wednesday, another nice weather day; I have been taking mid-day walks during my lunch hour for the last two days!  Today's project share is a card that I created over the weekend as I was doing some world card making day challenges.  I created this super cute birthday card using a navy card base, some pattern papers from Paper Studio, an unbranded balloon die, some ribbon and a Love Nicole sentiment and label die.  I like how the card came out and I am not sure the picture does it justice!  I am sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenge #143 over at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends and challenge #124 over at Cardz TV.

Thank you for your visit, I hope you'll return soon!
