Tuesday Musings

 Hello Tuesday, doing another quick drive by post to share something a little different,  a junk journal page. One of our contract workers will be leaving this week and since we introduced her to junk journaling we decided to have everyone create a farewell journal  page where we all added a page or a note. She is loves to read so this is is why I created this book nook themed page.  I stenciled the background using the Taylored Expression Brick by Brick stencil, the Spellbinders Study Nook die set and a Cardz TV stamp for the sentiment.

I am sharing this project for the June Anything Goes challenge over at A Cut Above and the Just Us Girls Anything Goes Stencil Week challenge #825.

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

Father's Day

 

Hello and happy Sunday, doing a quick drive by post as I have lots to do.  I've been trying to clean, declutter and organize. Today's card share is another signature clean and simple card using sketch inspiration from Try a Sketch on Tuesday challenge #696. I used a black card base along with random paper scraps, a tool dies set, a Hero Arts stamp set for the sentiment and a few gems and it was done!

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

CIU #357 - Friendship

 

Hello Friday, let the weekend begin! Today's project share is a friendship themed card created for the Cut it Up challenge blog. I used an embossed piece of paper for the base, a die for the flower tub/bucket which I think is an old Honey Bee Stamp die (wasn’t with the packaging). The flowers are from Crafter’s Square and the sentiment was stamped from the  Stampendous True Friends stamp set.

Sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenge over at Word Art Wednesday for Weeks 754-755. and May Anything Goes challenge over at Crafting Happiness.

Now that you've seen my project I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog not only for more design team inspiration but we are hosting a special contest. We are hoping to reach a subscriber milestone on the blog!  Please  see contest specific rules on the blog and share the contest with others if you are already a subscriber.!  Don't forget to create your Friendship themed project and share it also, the challenge starts today and ends Monday, June 8, 2026 at noon PST.

Saturday Musings

 Hello Saturday morning, it's raining and I'd like to be in bed but there's too much to do! I'm stopping in to share my last graduation card of the season (hopefully). I used random items from my stash and paper that matched to school colors. This signature clean and simple card came together just as I planned and will be given to the recipient today as he is celebrated. I am sharing this card for the Shopping Our Stash challenge #574 - Congratulations and the Tic Tac Toe challenge #293, where I used the center row (gold, free space and congrats sentiment).

Thank you for your visit, enjoy your holiday weekend and hurry back again soon!

CIU #356 - Flowers

 Hello Friday, let the weekend begin! Today's project share is my design team member project for the Cut it Up challenge blog. The theme for  challenge #356 is flowers so I reached for two more die sets (flowers and sentiment) from the  2024 Spellbinders Advent Calendar, one of the items that you have in your stash waiting for the right time to use it! This is a true shopping your stash project, the pattern papers are from the American Crafts Cutie Pie paper pad, I  used sketch inspiration from the Atlantic Hearts sketch challenge #681; like when a card comes together as you vision it in your head but I don't like the little pieces in these die sets (maybe that's why they had been tucked away)!

Now that you're seen my flower project I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration, create and share your project using flowers. The challenge starts today and ends Monday, May 25, 2026 at noon PST. Don't forget to use a die on your project.

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

Congrats

 

Hello and happy Wednesday morning doing a quick drive by post to share another card that. I created for another graduate. I used sketch inspiration from the Stick it Down FB group, this card came together nicely, used some Recollections adhesive rhinestones, cut the cap with my Cricut, stamped the sentiment and added some enamel dots! 

I'm sharing this card for the weekly challenge over at Crafting Happiness Challenges #213 - Anything Goes and Word Art Wednesday Anything Goes for Weeks 123-456.

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

Happy Mother's Day

 Hello and happy Sunday and Mother's Day! It has been an emotional day for me as this is the second year I am celebrating as a motherless child. I am sharing a card that I put together this morning using sketch inspiration from Sketch N Scrap card sketch #297, pattern papers from Paper Studio, used a die set from an old Spellbinders Advent Calendar.  It had been sitting in my stash for a while as I picked up from a yard sale, used my Cricut to cut the sentiment and this card was done!  I still might send it to someone because as mothers we are to be celebrated everyday!

I am sharing this card for the May Anything Goes challenge over at A Cut Above and the Die Week challenge #822 over at Just Us Girls.

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