Happy 90th Birthday

 

Hello and happy sunny Thursday more nice weather which means more sinus issues for those of us that have allergies.  Today's drive by post is a card created using sketch inspiration from The Sketchy Challenges #173.  I used papers from the American Crafts SparkleBerry Ink 6x6 paper pad that I picked up on clearance last year.  I used two different Spellbinders dies for the sentiment, circle and numbers, finished the card by adding a few Queen & Co. gems.  This card has already gone postal, not sure it will make it to the recipient who celebrates her 90th birthday today.  I am sharing this card for the anything goes challenge #137 over at Cardz TV.

Thank you for your visit, take care and hurry back, tomorrow I will be sharing my latest design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog.

Sunshine and Laughter

 

Hello and happy Tuesday, more nice weather in today's forecast.  Today's card share uses sketch inspiration from Sketch N Scrap card sketch #191 and more papers from the Recollections Blue Blooms 6x6 paper pad., the pattern papers made the card so it really wasn't necessary to add too much else.  I could have centered the sentiment but since I didn't fix it before I can't worry about it now!  I cut the flower using a Sizzix die, used some Recollections rose gold strips of paper and a Hero Arts stamp for the sentiment and the card was done!

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

Happy Easter

 

Happy Resurrection Day, I am doing a quick drive by post as I am out of town visiting my parents.  I am sharing a card that I put together using sketch inspiration from Try Stampin on Tuesday sketch #499,  papers from the Recollections Blue Blooms 6x6 paper pad, a Hero Arts stamp for the sentiment and a few Bo Bunny gems.  I have been creating a lot of cards lately so now I have to be more intentional in getting them in the mail.

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

Happy Good Friday

 

Hello Friday, it is so cold and windy outside.  I am back today to do a quick drive by post of another card that I created this morning using leftovers from the My Mind's Eye Breeze paper pad that I shared yesterday.  I used sketch inspiration from The Paper Players sketch #534, the CTMH Spring Rabbit stamp and die,  another CTMH stamp for the sentiment; finished the card by adding a few faux pearls.  I'm sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenge #137 over at Cardz TV and Shopping Our Stash challenge #442 - Here Comes Peter Cottontail.

Thank you for your visit, stay safe and enjoy your Easter.

Paper Pad Challenge

 

Hello Thursday, more rain in today’s forecast.  I'm back today to share a challenge completed by some of the Cut it Up challenge blog design team members.  We each chose a 6x6 paper pad and completed as many projects as possible, I still have some scraps left so I might be able to do about two more signature clean and simple cards.  I created 25 cards that included two mini slim line cards, and 3 baskets using the My Mind's Eye Breeze 6x6 paper pad which was a double sided pattern paper pad.  The pad was gifted to me some years ago by one of my scrapping besties.  In addition to the paper pad I used lots of stuff from my stash and even  some things for the first time. I had a hard time getting a good picture but a lot of time has been spent on this project so it’s time to move on!

Now that you've seen my projects, you should visit the other designers to see more great projects using 6x6 paper pads.

Wednesday Wanderings

Hello and happy Wednesday; cloudy and rain in today's forecast.  I'm stopping in for a quick post as I haven't shared in a bit, it's not that I  haven't been playing but I have been working on a project that I will post tomorrow along with some other Cut it Up challenge blog design team members. Today I am sharing a card that I created using a Julie Nutting doll, I have several dolls and rarely use them.  I created this card for a challenge hosted on the Scraps of Color FB group earlier this month, not sure why I never shared it.  I colored the doll using color pencils, stamped the sentiment on vellum and used a MS punch for the butterflies.  I'm sharing this card for the anything goes challenge #137 over at Cardz TV.

Thank you for your visit and I hope you'll come back tomorrow.  Take care and continue to be safe.

CIU #222 - Spring

 

Hello, happy Friday; let the weekend begin.  Today's project share is my design team card created for the Cut it Up challenge blog.  The theme for challenge #222 is Spring (use flowers and or butterflies) ; the challenge sponsor is Lawn Fawn and they are offering a $25 gift certificate.

This super cute card was created using sketch inspiration from Sketch N Scrap card  #190.  I used paper from the Simple Stories Vintage Bliss 6x6 paper pad, a Cottage Cutz butterfly die and  the Stampabilities Phrases stamp set for the sentiment. This clean and simple card came together  quite nicely and I'll be using this sketch again soon.
