Hello Tuesday


 It's Tuesday and I am back to do another quick share of a card that I put together this morning!  I used sketch inspiraiton from Atlantic Hearts challenge #589, some Recollections paper from a 6x6 paper pad, a Spellbinder's border die set, some gems and a stamped sentiment and this card was done.  Another signature clean and simple creation ready to go postal; I will be making a tirp to the post office tomorrow.

Thank you for your visit, take care and be safe. We are bracking ourselves for whatever hurricane/tropical storm  Debby brings to our area.  The govenor has declared a state of emergency!

Sunday Musings




 Hello and happy Sunday, doing a quick drive by post to share another card.  I created this card as part of the @craftydares challenge over on IG using sketch inspiration from Try A Sketch on Tuesday challenge #651. The dares for this challenge were:  fall, purple and embossing.  I used papers from my stash, a TH Sizzix Funky Floral wreath die, a Darice leaf embossing folder and the Cherry Lynn Fall word die (recently added to my stash) and the hello stamp is from Hero Arts! Looking at the finished card I noticed I made a placement error but I can't move the elements around now!

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

Happy Birthday Felisa

 


Hello Friday and Happy Birthday to one of my scrappin' besties! Today is Felisa's birthday and this is the card I made for her.  I used sketch #588 from Atlantic Hearts, papers from a Violet Studio paper pad, stamp and die tulip set that I picked up from Amazon (first time using it).  Finished the card by adding a stamped sentiment and some gems!  I colored the the tulips with some alcohol markers, I am still struggling as a colorist!  The card has gone postal but she won't receive it until after her birthday!

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

Wednesday Musings

 


Hello and happy Wednesday, the last day of the month and I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed!  Today's card share is one created using sketch inspiration from the Stick it Down July sketch over in their FB group.  The papers came from one of the Violet Studio paper pads, cut the flowers using the scrapbook.com Flower Market die set, added some bling to the flower ceners and a stamped sentiment and this card was done!  Another signature clean and simple card ready to go postal.  I am so far behind in creating my layouts, I really hope I can spend some time scrapbooking over the weekend. 

Thank you for your visit, I hope you will visit again soon.

CIU #309 - Clean and Simple

 


Hello Friday, today's project share is my latest design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog.  The theme  for challenge #309 is Clean and Simple, even though  this is my signature crafting style this wasn't an easy create. 

As my stash of unused items continue to grow I decided to use some dies that I recently purchased from Scrapbook.com, one of their recent bundles. I used the fruit slice cover plate die and the sentiment die with the  outline.  The dies do all the work, nothing else needed!

Now that you've seen my Clean and Simple project, I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration.  Create and share your Clean and Simple project using a die. The challenge starts today and ends Wednesday, August 8, 2024 noon PST.

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

Monday Musings


 Hello Monday, doing a quick drive by to post to share a card that has been waiting to be used for some time.   I have had this little die set in my stash for at least two years and this was my first time using it; I really need to resume my no craft shopping ban.  I have way too much stuff sitting around waiting to be used.  In addition to the die set I used mostly scraps of paper and a stamped sentiment from Crafter' Square (picked it up from Dollar Tree on Saturday and used it on this project that was waiting to be finished.

I  am sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenges 657-658 over at Word Art Wednesday and NBUS challenge #64.

Thank you for your visit, take care and continue to be safe.  I hope you'll visit again soon.
