Thanks

 

Hello and welcome to my first project share for My Twelve Days of Crafting Challenge.  I am doing this challenge with one of my crafting friends, rather than doing 12 days of Christmas which is what we usually do; we aren't limiting our projects to Christmas projects. I created this card using inspiration from the Shopping Our Stash challenge #561, A Quick Thank You; I think I did succeed in creating this card within the suggested 30 minute once I selected the papers and the dies that I wanted to used.  I used papers from the Dear Lizzy Neapolitan  12x12 paper pad,  dies from Stampin Up and Scrapbook.com.

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

Sunday Musings

 Hello and happy Sunday, doing a quick drive by post as I still have some chores that I need to do. I put this card together using sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts challenge #654.  I made my mini slimline card using a 6x6 piece of paper folded in half for the base. I used random scrap papers from my stash, some Crafter's Square dimensional stickers and a sentiment from scrapbook.com.  The card came together nicely but this is not one that will be going postal, I would hand deliver it! I am sharing this card  for the Anything Goes challenge for weeks #724-725 over at Word Art Wednesday and on IG for two challenges hosted on YT.

Thank you for your visit, take care and enjoy your holiday if you have tomorrow off! Hurry back soon.

Thursday Musings

 

Wow, is it Friday yet?  This has been one of those weeks, I'm still having a hard time just can't seem to get anything done.  I know there is a process but feeling stuck is hard, I really need to get my thank you cards in the mail. Today's card was created using inspiration for Atlantic Hearts sketch #626 and some Creative Memories papers,  gems, flower and a stamped image.

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

CIU #301 - 3-2-1

 

Hello and happy Friday, let the weekend begin!  Today' project share is my latest design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog.  The theme for challenge #301 is 3 - 2 - 1 ( 3 gems, 2 die cuts and 1 sentiment).

Not sure why this was a struggle for me but after a few attempts I decided to share this thank you card.   I used  3 Stampin' Up gems, a gift bag die and I stamped the sentiment on a stitched rectangle die cut.  I failed miserably at not adding items to my stash, this was my first time using the bag die, I did use  papers from the My Mind's Eye Stella & Rose 6x6 paper pad, it has been in my stash for a very long time. The sentiment is from a Spellbinders stamp set.

I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration, create and share your 3-2-1 themed project.  The  challenge starts today and ends on Wednesday,  April 17, 2024 at noon PST.

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

 Hello and happy Friday, doing another drive by post to share a thank you card created using sketch inspiration from Sketch N Scrap challenge #253 and pattern papers from the Simple Stories Hello fall 6x6 paper pad.  Used a Sizzix die set for the sentiment and a sunflower and leaf die from my stash.  I'm sharing this clean and simple card for challenge #730 Thanks a Lot over at Little Red Wagon and Give Thanks challenge #665 over at The Paper Players.

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

Wednesday Wanderings

 

Hello and happy Wednesday,  just stopping by to share a card that I recently created.  I have been trying to use some of the items that have been sitting unused for some time.  Last week two of my co-workers assisted me with a task so I made them a thank you card.  For this card I used the Spellbinder's Post Box die set, random paper scraps,  a Cricut cartridge to cut the sentiment; I think it came from the CTMH Artiste cartridge.  I really like how this card came out so I will be using that die again for a holiday card!  I am sharing this card for the challenge #489 (three item cluster)  over at Use Your Stuff,  My cluster of items are nested in the lid of the post box.  I am also sharing it over at Shopping Our Stash for their challenge #501 (no stamping allowed).

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

Shaker Card

 Hello and happy Thursday, nice weather day today in our area.  I'm doing a drive by post as I'm not really sure why I haven't shared since last Saturday.  This is one of the cards that I created over the weekend for a challenge on a FB group but didn't realize until I was ready to share it I had used the wrong sentiment! The card uses some a sheet of Stampin' Up pattern paper that was gifted to me, cut the scallop frame  and sentiment using some DCWV cardstock , some Recollections shaker bits and a Crafter's Companion die for the sentiment!  I am sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenge #135 over at Cardz TV.

Hello Wednesday and Happy Veterans Day, rain in today's forecast which means some of  outdoor activities had to be cancelled.  Today's card share is a card created using sketch inspiration from Try Stampin on Tuesday challenge #482.  I used misc pattern papers, an unbranded sentiment and stitched circle die and a branch punch.  I have mixed feelings about the card because of the mixture of pattern papers.  I am sharing this card for the Thank You challenge over at Always Fun Challenges #188.

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

Sponsor Thank You

 Hello and welcome to the weekend.  Today over at the Cut it Up challenge blog we are showcasing thank you cards that the design team members created for our challenge sponsors.  I created and mailed cards to Taylored Expressions and Your Next Stamp.

The inspiration for the card created for Taylored Expressions came from a YT video, I used their brick wall stencil along with a die and stamp set from my stash.  I really like how this card came out, I just might make another one using a different sentiment.

I created this card for Your Next Stamp using papers from the DCWV Farmstead Harvest 6x6 paper pad, some Sizzix oval dies, twine and their Whatnot Sentiments Seven stamp set for the sentiment.

Thank you for for your visit, stop by the Cut it Up challenge blog to see more thank you cards created for our sponsors.  Take care have a wonderful and safe weekend.

National Hot Chocolate Day

Hello and happy Friday night, just getting back in from an emergency trip home to support my mother.  Today’s super cute card was created as part of a sketch challenge over on the Scraps of Color FB page.  When I saw the sketch this morning it was right after I saw that it was National Hot Chocolate Day so I decided to make this card in the early hours of the morning.  I  was super excited since I don’t drink coffee but love hot chocolate.  I used papers from the Pebbles Girl Squad 6x6 paper pad and a CTMH stamp for the sentiment.  I am sharing this card for challenge #107 at Cards TV.

Thank you for your visit, hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Hello and happy Thursday afternoon, cool and windy after yesterday's rain.  Today I am doing a quick drive by post to share a card that I put together using inspiration from one of the monthly FB challenges from Sketch and Scrap.  I am getting ready for a little weekend getaway so I am trying to get as much done as possible.  I am happy to report that used more of the Jen Hadfield paper and epherma which really makes for some clean and simple cards.  I really like this 6x6 paper pad so I might even buy the 12x12 pad for LOs even though I really don't need anymore paper!

Thank you for your visit, I hope you'll return tomorrow for my design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog.
