Christmas Magic

 

Hello Monday, mild weather temps in today’s forecast. I haven’t share but my family could really use some prayers and positive thoughts.  We are grateful and don’t take God’s grace and mercy for granted but sometimes the bumps in the road takes an emotional toll.  Today’s card share is another holiday card created using sketch inspiration from CAS(e) #399, pattern  papers from the America Crafts Jolly 6x6 paper pad and a Hampton Arts (Cam &Choke) stamp that I picked up last Christmas so this is another intentional use item. Another card done and will be going postal soon as my goal is to have the majority of my holiday cards in the mail  by December 1!

Thank you for your visit, continue to be safe as you prepare for the holiday.  

Holly Jolly Christmas

Hello and happy cloudy Saturday, I started this post about six hours ago and got distracted. So much going I’m having a hard time settling down to really create; it doesn’t help that I have a sinus headache so it’s taking me longer to do anything.  While attempting to organize I came across some more scraps of paper so I decided to make two cards using  sketch inspiration from CAS(E) this sketch #364.  For this card I used a Crafter’s Companion die and some wood veneer stars, another card ready to go postal that will hopefully brighten the recipients day!

Thank you for your visit, wishing you and yours a great weekend and good health.

You Warm My Heart

Hello and happy Monday, the weekend is just not long enough.  Nice  temps yesterday and I came home after dropping Baby Girl off to meet her ride and took a long nap so it has been  a restless night.  It is going to be a long day because day because it is 4 AM, I am awake and I have a late meeting which requires meeting which is an hour away.  Today’s project is another intentional project created using sketch inspiration from CAS(e) this sketch #361, pattern paper from an American Crafts DIY Shop 6x6 paper pad, and a stamp set that I picked up on Saturday at a yard sale.

Thank you for your visit, wishing you and yours a wonderful week.

Thank you for your visit, hope you will come back tomorrow for my last Valentines project for the year.

Hello and happy hot and sunny Monday, another day of extremely warm temps.   We had a relatively busy weekend and I didn't sleep well last night but I still must press on.  Today's card share is a super clean and simple but classy card!   I used papers from the My Mind's Eye Dwell 6x6 paper pad, sketch inspiration from CAS(E) this sketch #322, stamped the sentiment on a fish tail cut banner and the card was done!

Hello and happy Monday, wind and sun today but more rain in the forecast this week.  I had a relatively quiet weekend, of course I didn't get a lot done but I did get a few things marked off my to do list!  I even got to hang out for a few hours with the RVA Scrappers!

Today's project share is another lunchbox greeting for my daughter.  I used sketch inspiration from CAS(E) this sketch  #310,  paper scraps from my stash that included pattern paper from the Pebbles Garden Party 6x6 paper pad.  The stamped sentiment is from the Cardz TV Favorite Phrases stamp set and the typewriter was cut using a Firefly die.  I am sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenge #83 over at Cardz TV.
