Blessed

 Hello Sunday, doing a quick drive by post to share another card.  Woke up to my friend’s phone alarm so I  got up and went for a walk.  I slept in a little late because I had a full day yesterday and I hadn't slept well the night beefore! When putting this card together I used sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts  sketch challenge #539,  papers and the cut a part for sentiment came from the Simple Stories Hello Fall 6x6 paper pad. Another card done and ready to go postal

Thank you for your visit, continue to be safe, have a wonderful week and hurry back soon.

CIU #285 - Under the Sea

 

Hello and happy Friday, let the weekend begin. I am so excited as I am headed out of town for some crafty fun tomorrow. Today's project share is my design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog. I struggled with this project because for  reason I couldn't find the original die that I wanted to use.  So I had to settle for this one cur with the Create-a-Critter Cricut cartridge, I cut the little starfish using a Momenta die set.  The paper is a single piece that I recently picked up from HL called Textured Waves and the sentiment was cut using two different Sizzix die set.  

Now that you've seen my card,  I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more design team inspiration, create and share your Under the Sea project.  The challenge starts today and ends Wednesday, September  6, 2023 at noon PST.

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

Tuesday Musings

Good morning and happy less humid Tuesday; I won't even start to talk about the weather and all that's going on right now.  I have been creating but not really sharing on my blog; it's hard trying to navigate this social media presence!  Today I am doing a quick drive by to share a scrapbook LO that I recently completed; as scrapbooking is really my passion!  I created this LO using a picture taken recently with my father during a family event; the only thing that pains me is that my mom is not well so we rarely take pictures.  Most of the papers came from an old Authentique pad, stickers from Heidi Swapp and Paper Studio, enamel hears and a heart paper clip from my stash!  

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

Wednesday Musings

 

Hello and happy Wednesday, doing a quick drive by post to share another card.  I put this card together using sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts challenge #538, papers from the Simple Stores Vintage Bliss 6x6 paper pad a stamped sentiment from my stash.  I used a Spellbinder's die to cut the hexagons.  Feeling a little overwhelmed with scraps and miscellaneous pieces of paper; can't seem to rid myself of that stash! I am going to try the no spend again next month!

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

CIU #284 - Create a Scene

 

Hello and happy Friday, let the weekend begin!  Today's card share is my latest design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog. This week's challenge was to create a scene, my original idea was to create a beach scene but I ran out of time while trying to shop my stash!

When putting my card together I pulled a Momenta die set, a WeR Memorykeepers embossing folder, a Sizzix die set for the sentiment,  miscellaneous papers and gems all from my stash!    The scene came together rather quickly since the die set included everything that was needed.  

Head on over to the Cut it Up challenge blog for more design team inspiration, create and share your project using a die.  The challenge starts today and ends Wednesday, August 23, 2023 at noon PST.

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

Sunday Musings

 

Hello and happy Sunday, today's card share is another birthday card.  When creating this card I used sketch insparation from Atlantic Hearts challenge #536, papers from Ki Memories and an unbranded die for the sentiment and finished the card by adding some enamel dots.  All items that have been in my stash for a number of years!  I have lots of birthdays this month so I am creating more birthday cards.  I also shared this card for the #2crafters1design and #satmornmakes challenges shared on YT and IG.

Thank you for your visit, wishing you and yours a wonderful week; I hope you will return again soon.

Birthday Greetings

 

Hello Thursday, little Friday; I meant to share this card yesterday but as life would have it I didn't have time to post.  I created this card for one of my scrappin' besties, her most favorite  color is purple!  Her birthday was yesterday, I'm not sure it arrived  on  time so I shared it on FB and IG; I am not liking the US Mail right now.  I shopped my stash to make this card, my first time using the paintbrush dies which I've had them for over a year.  I am sharing this card for challenge #114 over at the Crafts Galore challenge blog where the theme is always anything goes.

Thank you for your visit, hope you will return soon!
