Feel Better Soon

 

Good morning and happy Tuesday, doing a quick share as I meant to share over the weekend! This get well card was created  and has gone postal to a teen that is feeling a little under the weather. I used sketch inspiration form Sketch N Scrap  card sketch #295. I used mostly scraps of paper, cut the basketball with my Silhouette Portrait (which I don't use often), the sentiment is my CTMH stamp and gold gems are from Spellbinders.  

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

CIU #352 - Happy Birthday

Hello Friday, let the weekend begin! Today's project share is my design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog. The theme for challenge #351 is Happy Birthday and I used a cover plate die from Crafter's Companion as my focal point.  I used random papers from my stash, heat embossed the stamped sentiment and finished by adding some tiny star gems! 

I am sharing this card for the Word Art Wednesday Anything Goes challenge for weeks #742-743 and the March monthly challenge over at A Cut Above.

I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration, create and share birthday themed project using a die. The challenge starts today and ends Monday, March 16, 2026 at noon PST.

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

Birthday Greetings

 Hello and happy Sunday and the start to a new week! Doing an early morning drive by post to share another birthday card that will be going postal tomorrow!  I sure hope the postal service cooperates and get this to the recipient in a timely manner!  I used sketch inspiration #670 from Atlantic Hearts.  Another card where the paper does all the work, used more papers from the K&Co Antique Garden paper pad, a tag cut apart from a single sheet of Jen Hatfield birthday sentiments.  Finished the card by adding a bow and a few CTMH sequins. The papers used came from an Ollies discount store and the bow cut with the Recollections bow dies set; both items recently added to my stash. Shame on me for adding to my stash, I need to stop watching haul videos!

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

Friday Musings

 

Hello Friday, let the weekend begin! Doing a quick drive by post to share a birthday card using sketch inspiration from Sketch N Scrap card sketch #294.  Pattern papers from the K&Co Antique 6x8 paper pad, die cut a heart and tag; added a Crafter's Square flower. Finished by adding some Spellbinders gems and a stamped sentiment.  I think the card looks better in person and it will be going postal in the morning to one of my friends' grandmother.

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

Black History Month

 Hello and happy Wednesday, as February comes to an end I wanted share a card that I created for BHM, although I celebrate all year not just February.  This year marks the 100th year of officially celebrating Black History Month.

For my card I used sketch inspiration from Try a Sketch on Tuesday challenge #689.  I used items that have been in stash for years with the exception of the one piece of paper that I recently picked up from Michaels.  I made several projects using the one sheet of Recollections double sided paper.  I also used some random embossing folders, my Cricut to cut the sentiment and a Sizzix stamp set for the word celebrate which was heat embossed.

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

Hello and happy Friday and happy post day for the Cut it Up challenge blog. The theme for challenge #350 is By the Sea (ocean, lake, river). This clean and simple card came together quickly with a few die cuts, some inking, a few some embellishments and a stamped sentiment.

I hope that you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration, create and share your By the Sea project. The challenge starts today and ends Monday, March 2, 2026 at noon PST.

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

Love

 

Hello Tuesday, I am doing a quick share of another card that I recently created.   We should share and express love at anytime but February is when we celebrate Heart Health month and Valentines Day. I created my card using sketch inspiration from the Stick it Down group on FB, papers from the Recollections Girl Squad paper pad, a Recollections embossing folder and the Inspire (Spellbinders) Love Vine die for the focal point. I really shopped my stash on this one and it came together nicely and will be going postal soon;  I need to be more intentional in getting my cards in the mail!

I am sharing this card for the February Reds and Pinks challenge over at Die Cut Divas and the Tic Tac Toe challenge number 286 using the top row across (hearts, die cutting, red/pink).
