CIU #192 Get Well Soon


Hello and happy Friday, more seasonal temps in the area with some rain in the forecast soon.  Today’s project share is my latest design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog.  The theme for challenge #192 is Get Well Soon and our sponsor is Digital Delights by Louby Lou..

For my card I used more intentional items from my stash, the honeycomb embossing folder had been sitting in my stash unopened for a few years, all papers used came from the scrap stash with the exception of the base.  The digital sentiment is from our sponsor Digital Delights by Louby Lou. I cut the bee using the Birthday Bash Cricut cartridge and the enamel dots are from Paper Studio.

I hope you'll head on over to the Cut it Up challenge for design team inspiration, create and share your Get Well Project for a chance to win a gift certificate  from our sponsor.  The challenge starts today and ends Wednesday, February 5, 2020 at Noon EST.

Thank you for your visit wishing you and yours a wonderful weekend.

Just Because


Hello and happy Thursday, another cold day here in the commonwealth.  Wishing my sister Alexia a happy birthday; not sure if she reads my blog or not!  Today I am sharing a card that I created using a sketch shared by Craft with Te last week.  I used the last few scraps of paper from the My Mind's Eye Happier 6x6 paper pad, a Hero Arts stamp for the sentiment and some Recollections enamel hearts.
Another card created and ready to go postal!

Thanks for your visit, I hope you'll stop by tomorrow as I will be sharing my design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog.

Happy Birthday Miss Gail


Hello and happy cold Tuesday!  We survived yesterday’s gun rally without incident.  Today's project share is a card that I made for a family friend, I put it in the mail on Saturday, I hope she receives it today.   The papers came from the My Mind's Eye A Happy Heart 6x6 paper pad, a Sizix die for the cake, Paper Studio stamp for the sentiment and a few enamel stars finished this birthday card.  I feel like I am doing okay with using intentional items from my stash but I have a long way to go and hope to become more organized so that I can use up the paper scraps quickly!  I'm sharing this for the Anything Goes challenge #106 over at Cards TV.

Thank you for visit, stay warm and hurry back soon!

Thinking of You


Happy cold Monday and Happy MLK Day; lots going on here in the capital city so I am limiting my movement.   I'm doing a quick drive by post to share a card that I created using sketch inspiration from this month's card sketch over at Stick it Down.  I created this card for one of my co-workers who recently suffered the loss of her brother, he had been sick, it is never easy losing a love one but hopefully they can find some comfort in knowing he is no longer suffering. I used more scraps of papers from several companies, a Crafter's Companion stamp & die set for the flower and a Hero Arts stamp for the sentiment.  I  have  alot going on but I still plan to work through these scraps of paper and finish off some paper pads.

Thank you for your visit, wishing you and yours a marvelous Monday.

Hello


Good morning, it is Sunday 1:00 AM and I just woke up from a long nap.  I went to a crop earlier and it was raining and I was cold so I decided to take a nap not thinking I wouldn’t wake up until now.  I was having a wired dream so I needed to get up.  So on with sharing my post of a card that I put together using sketch inspiration from Try Stampin’ on Tuesday #439.   I used more papers from one of my Ki Memories 6x6 paper pads, the Freshly Picked Cricut cartridge for the gnome, some Paper Studio gems and a Bo Bunny stamp for the sentiment.  I am sharing this card for challenge #411 - Gnome Sweet Gnome over at Shopping Our Stash.

Thank you for your visit, hope you will return soon.

Service with a Smile


Hello and happy Friday, seasonal temps in today's forecast.  I am back today to share my second completed LO for 2020.  The LO uses a picture taken of Baby Girl last summer while she was working at her first real job!  She started off as a counter, hostess but was reassigned while she away at school; she has mixed feelings about working for tips only! This whole LO contains most items from my list of intentional supplies, scrap paper, a brad and some metal embellishments. I cut the cake and cutting board using the From my Kitchen Cricut cartridge, cut the title using Designer Calendar, Create-a-Critter and Phrases cartridges.   I just need to add the journaling and this one will be ready for the book!  I am sharing this LO for the Anything Goes challenge #106 over at Cardz TV.

Thank you for your visit, wishing you and yours a wonderful weekend.

Just a Note


Good morning and happy Thursday, sunny and mild temps in today's forecast.  Today's project share is a card created using sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts #351.  This signature clean and simple card is one created using more intentional items from my stash to include paper from the Ki Memories Growing Garden 6x6 paper pad, some Gina Marie enamel dots and a stamp from a Sizzix stamp and die set.  I even inked the edges of the strips of paper  to add a little more detail.  This card is going postal today to someone who is currently recovering from pneumonia.

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