CIU #299 - Colors of Spring

 

Hello Friday, let the weekend begin.  Today's project share is my design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog. I created this mini slim line card for the Colors of Spring challenge #299.

When putting this card I used a Spellbinders embossing folder called Bubble Wrap, it has been in my stash for many years and this was my first time using it.  I am having a hard time parting with stuff even though I am not  or haven't used them.  The remaining die cuts came  from the Spellbinders Open House Door Die Collection.  Finishing by adding some gems in the flower centers.  I am sharing this card for challenge #164 Cozy over at Crafting Happiness and challenge #60 over at Never Before Used Stuff.

Please visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration, create and share your Colors of Spring project.  The challenge starts today and ends on March 20, 2024 at noon PST.

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

Wednesday Musings

 Hello Wednesday, I have been trying to share for the last few days but as life would have it I am just squeezing in the time.  Today's card share was created using inspiration from Atlantic Hearts sketch challenge #567 and more miscellaneous papers from my many scraps.  I cut the clover using the Create a Critter  2 Cricut cartridge, used a Fiskars stamp for the sentiment and finished by adding some sequins.  I am sharing this card for the It's Not Easy Being Green challenge #516 over at Shopping Our Stash.

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

You're a Classic

 

It's Saturday night and I am back with my second share of the day.  This card was created using inspiration from one of the design team members over on Just Us Girls, the theme for challenge #716 was to CASE a one of their design team members.  Again I reached for papers that was used from recent projects with the exception of the vinyl that I used for the records.  Now that I am thinking about I do have some mirrored cardstock that I could have used.  The stamp and die set is an unbranded set that I had in my stash.  I also embossed the white layer with a sheet music folder which is hard to see in the picture even though I did ink it lightly.  This is one of those cards that look better in person.  I also shred this card for the music themed challenge hosted by 2crafters1 design over on YT and IG.

Continue to be safe and enjoy the rest of your weekend.

It's Your Happy Day

 

Hello Saturday, it's pouring buckets of rain so I will only go out as necessary!  Hopefully I can get a lot of play time in and schedule some blog post.  I'm doing a quick post to share a card that I created using sketch inspiration from Try a Sketch on Tuesday challenge #641.  I used mostly random papers from my scrap stash, the pattern piece came from a Pink Fresh Studio 6x6 paper pad.  I shared this card on IG for the @craftydares challenge which was to include some embossing and a cupcake.   Another card done, using my stash and ready to go postal soon.

Thank you for your visit, stay safe and hurry back soon!

Happy Birthday Hank

 Hello and happy Sunday, doing a quick drive by post to share a card that I put together for my neighbor across the street.  I used sketch inspiration from Tuesday Morning Sketches challenge #745, paper from the Hey Mister My Mind's Eye 6x6 paper pad and a Sizzix stamp set for the sentiment.  I stamped and cut the hat using a Fun Stampers Journey Father's Day set.  In shopping my stash I used two items that had never been used!

Thank you for  your visit, hurry back soon!

CIU #298 - Dots and/or Stripes

Hello and happy Friday, the end of the month is approaching and I have to get some layouts completed.  Today's project share is my design team submission for the Cut it Up challenge blog.  The theme for challenge #298 is dots and or stripes.

When putting this 8 1/2x11 layout together I used papers that I picked up from JoAnn's recently, I cut the star studded circle using my Silhouette with some foil paper from Michaels.  The title is a wood veneer Momenta sticker, added a few other embellishments and it was done. The picture on the layout  of my daughter and I wearing our holiday pajamas from 2022.

I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more design team inspiration.  Create and share your Dots and/or Stripes project, don't forget to include a die.  The challenge starts today and ends, Wednesday, March 6, 2024 at noon PST. 

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

Happy Birthday Cheryl

 It's Tuesday and I'm already looking forward to Friday!  I'm doing a drive by post to share a birthday card created using sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts #565 and mostly paper from my scrap stash.  I am sending this card to one of my scrapping friends, she can easily add a sentiment and bling and share it with somone else if she likes. I used a Sizzix die to cut the flowers and the leaves were in my waiting to be use stack.  Another card done and  going postal late!
