Boo


Hello Tuesday and Happy Halloween!  Today I am sharing a card that I put together using sketch inspiration from Paper Play Sketches  and die cuts from Gina Marie and the Mini Monsters cricut cartridge.  I borrowed this cartridge from the school at my job, Halloween is the secretary's favorite holiday, she even takes the whole week off.  The piece of pattern paper is from Pebbles and it was leftover from some cards I made two years ago.  I am sharing this card for the Halloween challenges over at Use Your Stuff and  Always Fun Challenges.   I hope you will visit again soon.

Celebrate


Hello and happy Monday, we had lots of rain yesterday but we have cool temps and clear skies this morning.  I am back today to share a LO created using sketch inspiration from the Double Delight Sketch challenge from Soul Scrappers.  I had these pictures from an impromptu 50th birthday celebration for my husband so I decided to go ahead and scrap them.  The burgundy paper has a faint pattern and it came from some papers that I purchased from Costco some years ago.  I'm thinking I probably should have used a red patter paper instead.  The stripped strip of paper came from some scraps from one of the DCWV stacks.  I used a Heidi Swapp sticker for the title, enamel dots and the balloons were cut using the CTMH Artiste cricut cartridge.  I have mixed feelings about the paper but I'm glad that I finally took the time to document the memory.  Take care and have a marvelous Monday.

Happy Halloween


Hello Saturday, cool temps but sunny outside today.  Today I am sharing a card that I put together using sketch inspiration from Operation Write Home after watching a video from craftwithte last Friday.  I usually don't make Halloween cards but decided to make this one for several challenges.  I used pattern paper for the MS Essentials paper pad, the Mini Monsters cricut cartridge, some Recollections glittered tape and a CTMH stamp for the sentiment.  I am sharing this card for Challenge #340 - Halloween over at  DIe Cuttin' Divas and the Any Holiday Challenge #324 over at  Hiding in My Craft Room.  Wishing you and yours a wonderful weekend.

You Inspire Me


Hello and welcome to the weekend, cool temps and rain in the forecast for Sunday.  Today I am sharing my final card created using a sketch from the Fall Fun Crop hosted by Sketch N Scrap on FB.  I used more pattern paper, the sentiment and gems from a breast cancer kit from Me & My Big Ideas.  I cut the ribbon using a glittered piece of paper from my arsenal of paper scraps.  I am sharing this card for the Think Pink challenge over at  CAS-ual Fridays and the Anything Goes Challenge #18 over at Cardz TV.  Thank you for your visit and I hope you will return soon.

Grateful


Hello and happy Wednesday, another nice Fall day here in our area.  I quickly became bored with the one sheet wonder process but I still plan to share at least five more of the cards that I created using that process.  I usually use sketches for my cards and LOs and I am always looking for ways to use paper scraps and stick to my clean and simple style.  I really need to get my Thanksgiving cards done and some LOs.  Today I am sharing a card that I created for the Fall Fun Crop hosted by Sketch N Scrap on their FB page, I originally hoped to share all of the cards created for that crop together in one post but I'm not sure I will get the last one done.   When putting this card together I used most everything from the Simple Stores Hello Fall kit with the exception of the heart (ruined the one that came with the kit) that I cut with the Beyond Birthdays cricut cartridge and the gems placed in the center of the flowers.  Thank you for your visit and I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday.

You Are Amazing



Hello and happy Monday, we have rain in the forecast sometime in the next few days.  I had a really productive weekend as I was able to complete several cards so I should have my blog posts covered for this week.  Today I am sharing a card using sketch inspiration from sketch #2 from the World Card Making Day monthly challenge over at Sketch N Scrap.   I used papers from the My Mind's Eye Honey  Cake 6x6 paper pad, a Recollections sentiment stamp, a border punch,  a flower cut with my SLICE machine and a button; all from my stash.  I am also sharing this card for the button challenge over at Die Cuttin' Divas.   Take care and have a marvelous Monday!

Hello and happy Sunday another nice weather day in the forecast!  I am back today to share a card that I put together using a die that I received as a birthday gift from one of my scrappin BFFs.  So I used the Tutti Designs snow globe die for the first time, pulled out my fuse tool to make the shaker and even used one of my many embossing folders.  Everything used to make this card has been in my stash for a while!   I am sharing this card for the Shaker Card Challenge over at Cut it Up and the Anything Goes Challenge #17 over at Cardz TV.  Thank you for your visit and I hope you have a wonderful week.
