Friday Musings

Hello and happy Friday, looking forward to some downtime this weekend or rather maybe not.  Next week is homecoming at my daughter's school and we still need to shop.   Oh well such is life we just have to make the best of it.  Today I am sharing a card that I made using inspiration from this month's sketch #342 over at Die Cuttin'  Divas.  I used papers from the Pebbles Garden Party 6x6 paper pad, stamped, heat embossed and cut the flowers using a stamp and die set  that I picked up on clearance from Hobby Lobby sometime ago.  I threw away the packaging but I think it may have been something exclusive to HL by Richard Garay, the founder of Fun Stampers Journey.  A few enamel dots and a stamped sentiment completed this card that will be going postal to one of the FB card angels.  I will also share this card for the Anything Goes Challenge #20 over at Cardz TV.  Thank you for your visit, wishing you and yours a wonderful weekend.

Cards for Kids

Hello Thursday, more cold weather for us.  Today I am sharing some cards that I created for the FB card angel group or rather it was requested by one of its members.   The request was posted last week for kid cards so I spent some time over the weekend putting these 10 signature simple cards together.  I used a of variety papers, stickers, die cut embellishments and stamps for the sentiments.  I like how they came out and I was able to use some stuff from my stash, used the bike die and reindeer stamp for the first time!  Take care and I hope you'll come back again soon.

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.

Thank You

Hello Tuesday, cloudy and rainy in our area today.  Although I have a lot going on I decided to vote before work!  Today I am sharing a thank you card created using sketch inspiration from Fall to Layout #41 from Clean & Simple Stamping.  I used a kraft card base, paper from my stash of scraps, hemp cord, a circle punch, cut the leaf with my SLICE and a CTMH stamp for the sentiment.  I am sharing this card for the thank you challenge over at Cut it Up and the Anything Goes Challenge #19 over at Cardz TV.  Thank you for your visit, I hope you'll return soon.

Hello Friday

Hello and happy Friday, nice temps in the forecast today.  I'm back today sharing a child themed birthday card created for one of the challenges over at Soul Scrappers.  If you are looking for some inspiration/challenges you may want to check their site.  When putting this card together I chose more papers from my scrap stash and some of my neglected dies.  I picked up the Sizzix Celebrations stitched speech bubble die from TM about two months ago and balloons are from my collection of unbranded dies.  Thank you for your visit, wishing you and yours an awesome weekend.

Little Things

Hello and happy Thursday, I am so looking forward to the weekend.  Warmer temperatures in today's forecast, this weather and my sinuses aren't in agreement.  I am back today sharing another card that I created using another card from the World Card Making Day sketches from Sketch N Scrap.  I didn't finish the card in time so I didn't share it on their page.  I used  mostly paper from my scrap stash, a Cardz TV stamp for the sentiment and leaves cut with the CTMH Aartist Cricut cartridge.  I am sharing this card for the Anything Goes Challenge #18 over at Cardz TV.   Thank you for your visit, take care and have a great day.

Wednesday Wanderings

Hello and happy Wednesday, cool fall temps in our area.  I'm back today sharing the final cards from my One Sheet Wonder project.  The paper came from one of the Michael's hot buy paper pads, stamped two of the sentiments and used my cricut and/SLICE to cut the other three.  The flowers and gems have been in my stash forever, used a punch for the butterflies and my SLICE to cut the embellishment on the bottom right card.  Take care and have a wonderful Wednesday.
