Happy Holidays

Hello and happy Wednesday, it's cold outside and we have sprinkles of rain in our forecast today.  I am back today sharing a card that I created this morning using sketch inspiration from sketch #55 over at Paper Play Sketches.  It is bittersweet because this is their final sketch so I wanted to make sure I participated as I have enjoyed the sharing and inspiration!  When putting the card together I used papers from the MS Essentials paper pad, cut the poinsettia using the Joys of the Season cricut cartridge and some Recollections gems for the center.  I will also share this card for the Anything Goes Challenge #20 over at Cardz TV.  Thank you for your visit and I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday.

Boo

Hello Tuesday and Happy Halloween!  Today I am sharing a card that I put together using sketch inspiration from Paper Play Sketches  and die cuts from Gina Marie and the Mini Monsters cricut cartridge.  I borrowed this cartridge from the school at my job, Halloween is the secretary's favorite holiday, she even takes the whole week off.  The piece of pattern paper is from Pebbles and it was leftover from some cards I made two years ago.  I am sharing this card for the Halloween challenges over at Use Your Stuff and  Always Fun Challenges.   I hope you will visit again soon.

Hope Anchors the Soul

Hello and Happy Sunday, trying to get the post in early before the day gets away.  I meant to share yesterday but we had to go out of town, I meant to schedule a post for yesterday but as life would have it I didn't.  Today I am sharing a card created using sketch inspiration from sketch #52 from Paper Play Sketches.  I used paper from the Amy Tangering Sketchbook pad,  a bible journaling stamp from American Crafts for the sentiment and some Recoolection gems.  I am sharing this card for the  Cardz TV  Anything Goes Challenge #14.  Take care and have a wonderful week.

Saturday Musings

Hello and happy Saturday, another busy week not a lot of time to play or share on my blog.  It's raining outside so I plan on being inside most of the day playing!  Today I am sharing a card that I just finished that was inspired by sketch #50 over at Paper Play Sketches.  I used pattern paper from the Pebbles  Garden Party paper pad, the Elegant Edges Cricut cartridge for the swirl border, stamped sentiment and some Echo Park enamel dots.  This card will be going postal for the FB card angel group. I am also sharing this card for the Anything Goes Challenge #10 over at Cardz TV.  Thank you for your visit, enjoy your holiday weekend.

Happy You Day

Hello and happy Wednesday, more hot weather in the forecast so I'm staying inside!  We are still on our emotional journey so my crafting time is very limited.  I decided to just take sometime this morning and put this card together to help relieve some stress.  Sketch inspiration for the card came from sketch #47 over at Paper Play Sketches, the pattern paper is from the DCWV Teenage Dream Stack.  I cut the shoe with the Nifty Fifties cricut cartridge, the stamped sentiment is from the This and That stamp set from Cardz TV and the enamel dots are from Recollections.  I'm sharing this card for the CardzTV Mailbox Smiles Anything Goes Challenge #6.  Thank you for your visit and I hope you'll return soon.

Hello Friend

It's Thursday and I'm  feeling like I need at least two more days in my work week.  I have been extremely busy, I guess it's good considering the fact that I am so sleepy.  Today I am sharing a card that I made for one of my crafty friends using sketch #40 from Paper Play Sketches.  The strips of pattern papers are left over from another project that I'll share later, the papers are from the Doodlebug take note 6x6 pad that was gifted to me.  The stamped sentiment is from the Cardz TV favorite phrases set, the dress form is a Spellbinders die and the flowers are from Paper Studio.  I'm also sharing this card for the flowers challenge over at Use Your Stuff.  Thank you for your visit, hope you'll come back soon.

Hello and happy Tuesday, sprinkles of rain this morning but the forecast calls for warmer temps today.  I am back today to share a card that I put together using sketch #38 from Paper Play Sketches for inspiration.  I used mostly scraps of paper from my stash, I think the pattern papers are from Studio G, I even pulled out my markers and did a little coloring, the sentiment is from a stamp set that I picked up from HL some time ago (using my stash).  I am also sharing this card for challenge #293 over at Hiding in my Craft Room.  Take care and I hope you'll come back tomorrow!

Happy 5th Birthday

Hello and happy Saturday, the day started off sunny and warm but a rain and hail storm rolled through this evening.  I meant to post earlier but as life would have it I didn't have time.  This evening I am sharing a card that was created using sketch #36 from Paper Play Sketches.   The pattern paper came from a Momenta pad, I cut the bird and the #5 from the Birthday Bash cricut cartridge and used a button brad to attach the sentiment.  I am sharing this card for this week's animal challenge over at Die Cuttin' Divas.    Thank you for your visit and I hope you will come back soon.

Hello and happy Saturday, it has been a few days since I shared and I am trying to play catch up.  Nice sunny day but very cold and my plan was to be I most of the day but of course that hasn't happened.  Today I am sharing another Valentine's Day card that I put together using inspiration from sketch #33 over at  Paper Play Sketches.  I used  paper from the My Mind's Eye Honey cake paper pad, a MS border punch, a Spellbinders die for the sentiment two hearts and this card was done!  Thank you for your visit and I hope you will come back soon.

You Fill My Heart

Hello and happy Thursday, another day of mild winter temps (not too cold).  So much going on, can't seem to get caught up or catch my footing.  Today I am sharing a card that I put together using sketch inspiration from challenge #31 over at Paper Play Sketches.  I used some studio G paper from my stash along with some pattern paper from one of the 6x6 that I received in RAK recently.  I'll note the name later as I will be using it to make more Valentines Day cards.  The stamp is from a Recollections set (I think) and the mini hearts were punched.  I am also sharing this card for challenge #106 -Add a Heart  over at Crafty Gals Corner.  Take care and have a terrific Thursday.

Give Thanks

Hello Thursday, tomorrow is Friday and my Thanksgiving cards aren't ready for the mail so I've got to really work tonight!  Today I sharing a super simple card that I put together using sketch inspiration from sketch #22 over at Paper Play Sketches.  I just used leftover papers from cards that I made earlier, a sticker from a First Thanksgiving sticker pack that I picked up in TM recently  and a Fiskars stamp that has been in my stash for a long time.  It seems a little off balance so I may need to straighten the turkey before the card goes postal.  Thank you for your visit and I hope you will come back again soon.
