Friends

 

Hello Saturday morning,  started this post yesterday but as life would have it I didn't get a chance to finish!   Today's project share is my latest layout of me and some of my crafty friends!  I really like how it came out even though the outcome was a little different from my original vision.  I used papers from the CTMH My Reflections  paper pack,  some Prima flowers that I recently won from participating in a challenge, some faux wood letters and hearts,  Recollections pearls and finally some TH Small Talk stickers.   Friends are truly the family we choose and I love these ladies, so grateful that our paths crossed!  The journaling is in a pocket on the back.

Thank you for your visit, hope you will return again soon!  Be well and enjoy your weekend.

Sunday Musings

 

Welcome to the start of a new week, claiming joy and fruitfulness!  Today's share is a card created using sketch inspiration for Sketch N Scrap #250 and pattern papers from the My Minds Eye Blink of an Eye 6x6 paper pad.  I  used a  Stampin Up stamp and die set for  the sunflower, colored with some alcohol markers.  Finished it by adding some gems, another card done and going postal this week!  Still trying to work through using my stash, organizing and de-cluttering.

Thank you for your visit, continue to be safe; wishing you and yours a wonderful week.  Hurry back soon!

CIU #287 - Inspired by a Book or Song

 

Hello and happy Friday, let the weekend begin! Today's drive by post showcases my latest design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog.  The theme for challenge #287 is a project inspired by a book or song.

I created a card inspired by a song that has been playing in my head for the last few weeks, I am not sure why so I decided to just go with it.  The song title is Hello by Lionel Richie, I used sketch inspiration form this month's card sketch over at the Stick it Down FB group.  The pattern papers came from the Damask Girl Power series, the phone came from a Richard Garry stamp and die set, the sentiment stamp and speech bubble have been in my stash and have long been separated from their packaging.  I finished this clean and simple card by adding a Recollections enamel hear in the corner.

Thank you for your visit, I hope you will go over to the Cut it Up challenge blog for more design inspiration.  Create and share your project inspired by a book or song, the challenge starts today and ends Wednesday, October 4, 2023 at noon PST.

Take care and hurry back soon.

Sweet Treat

 

Hello and happy Tuesday, doing a quick drive by to share one of my most recent layouts.  I have been on a quest to scrap me more as I'm usually the one behind the camera.  Today's LO is one that I created using pictures taken during a summer celebration at work; I called it Friday Fun Frenzy!  I had fun just chillin, trying to lift the morale of the hospital staff!  I used papers from an Echo Park and stickers from an Echo Park paper pack, some dies, enamel dots and I even pulled the felt hearts from a bag that was sitting in my stash.  I like it and it helps me complete  another LO toward my quarterly goal. I'm sharing this for the Challenge YOURself  #117 - Life Balance, fun work celebrations help with work balance!

Thank you for your visit, hope you will return soon.  Take care and continue to be safe!

CIU 286 - Back to School

 

Hello and happy Friday, happy for the weekend and hoping to get  a lot done! Today’s project share is my latest design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog. The theme for challenge #286 is Back to School.

This is another project where my original thought changed as I gathered my supplies and what I chose to use.  I used papers from DCWV and  several different dies from my stash, I do like the outcome so I just need to learn not to be not so rigid and allow for some flexibility which could possibly save me some time.

I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration, create and share your Back to School project.  The challenge starts today and ends Wednesday, September 20, 2023 at noon PST.

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

Happy Harvest

 

It's Sunday evening and I have been binge watching Netflix for the last two days; shame on me because that means I haven't done my chores!  Today's card share is one created using sketch inspiration Atlantic Hearts  sketch challenge #540, miscellaneous scraps of paper, a tag die and an Art Impression stamp for the sentiment.  I cut the apple using my SLICE machine which hadn't used in a long time.

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