CIU #302 - Starts with the Letter B

 

Hello and happy Friday, looking forward to the weekend!  Today's project is for the Cut it Up challenge blog; the theme for challenge #302 is starts with the letter B.  I chose the word books and I created a layout.

When putting my layout together I used papers from an old Dear Lizzy She's Magic 12x12 paper pad.  I also used one of the cut-a-parts from the pad, cut the owl and books using a die set; used several alphabet stickers or the title.  This is one of my projects where I don't think the picture does it justice; it looks better in person.  I created this layout because I recently started a challenge where I am going back to one of my favorite past times, reading books; I love to turn pages; don't care to read books my electronic devices.  I'm sharing this project for the Anything Goes challenge #254 over at Crafty Gals Corner.

I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more starts with a B inspiration, create and share your project.  The challenge starts today and ends Wednesday,  May 1, 2024 at noon PST.

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

Happy Valentines Day

Hello and happy Thursday, mild temps in today's forecast.  Today's card share is one where I used sketch #139 from Sketch N Scrap.   I used misc. scraps of paper from different pads, an unbranded stitched oval die and a Fun Stamper's Journey stamp for the sentiment.  This is it, no more Valentine's Day card shares for this year!  I'm sharing this card for challenge #97 - Love/Valentines over at Always Fun challenges and challenge #185 Love is in the Air over at Crafty Gals Corner.

Thank you for your visit and I hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day.

Friday Musings

Hello and happy Friday!  I'm still not feeling 100 percent but I think that it is a cold and not my allergies that are lingering now.  It is raining outside so I'm looking forward to getting off and going to bed.  Today I am sharing another Mother's Day card using more paper from my scrap stash.  The flower die is from Darice and the sentiment is from one of the Ditto sets that I picked up from HL a long time ago.  I'm sharing this card for challenges on the following sites:

Crafty Gals Corner - Bling

Die Cuttin' Divas - Mother's Day

Hiding in my Craft Room  - Flowers (NSD #2)

Thank you for your visit and I hope you have a wonderful weekend celebrating Mother's Day with your family.

Hello Friday

Hello Friday, it's raining hard here right now so of course I'd rather be in the bed! It's the weekend, do you have plans?  I'm back today to share another card that has gone postal to another child in need of some encouragement.  I used paper from a 4x6 pad that was gifted to me many years ago, I think it came from Hobby Lobby.  The die is another one of the dies that I purchased off Ebay from China, I really like it but it took several tries before I could get it to cut correctly.  I am sharing this card for the anything goes challenge over at Die Cuttin' Divas and Crafty Gals Corner.  Thank you for your visit, take care and enjoy your weekend.

Our Family

Hello Friday and welcome weekend!  I'm back today to share another LO from my mother's birthday album, I am happy to say that I shipped it to her yesterday.  I hope she'll be pleased because there won't be any changes except adding the names the next time I go visit.  The chipboard flower stickers are from studio 112 (K&Co) from JoAnn's and they have been in my stash for a long time but the Our Family wood veneer title came from Tuesday Morning within the last few months.  I'm sharing this LO for challenge #115 Anything but a Card over at Crafty Gals Corner.  Thank you for your visit and I hope you and your family have a great weekend.
