Thanks

Hello and happy Saturday, cloudy and sprinkles in the forecast this morning in our area.  I think I'll stay in most of the day and try to get some house chores done.  Today I am sharing a card that I put together using more scraps of paper from my stash and sketch inspiration from challenge #294 from CAS(E) this Sketch.  I used a Love Nicole die for the sentiment and added a few Recollections enamel dots and this card was done.  As we continue to journey through baby girl's senior year I have  to keep a stash of thank you  cards!   I am sharing this card for challenge #376 Pink is the New Challenge over at Shopping Our Stash and challenge #334 - Enamel Dots over at Use Your Stuff..

Thank you for your visit, enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Cut it Up #159 - Just in CASE

Hello and happy Friday, seasonal temps in our area today.

Today I'm back tto share my design team project for Cut it Up, the theme for challenge #159 is Just in CASE, case another crafter's project.  I had a hard time trying to decide what to do for this challenge. So I finally decided to make a card; my project is Pinterest inspired and can be found here:

The original card used acorns but I decided to use leaves on my card. For my project,  I chose to use the Fall Leaf Party Pennant  from My Scrap Chick along with some pattern paper from the Craft Smith Pumpkin Spice paper pad, some twine and stickles.  I used my Cameo to cut the pennant and the Winter Wonderland Cricut cartridge to cut the word greetings.

Now that you've seen my project I hope you'll head on over to the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration and decide to CASE and share a project for a chance to win a $20 store credit from My Scrap Chick.   The challenge starts today and ends on Wednesday, October 31, 2018 at noon EST.

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

Monday Musings

Hello and happy Monday, mild temps in the forecast today with cooler temps later in the week.  I'm back today to share holiday card created for the October challenge over at CAS Christmas Card, the theme for this month is birds.  I decided to pull out my Sizzix  Bigz TH Alterations Christmas Cardinal die, this is one that I've never used and it has been in my stash for a few years.   I used a WeR Memory Keepers embossing folder and added the panel to the card base with some dimensional tape.  This is one of the few times where the card came out as I had originally visioned! 

Thank you for your visit, I hope you have a wonderful week.

Breast Cancer Awareness

Hello and happy Saturday, nice temps in the forecast today.  Hurricane Michael came and left death and debris in our state but nothing compared to Florida.  In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month I usually try to create at least one card to share with someone in the fight.  I created this super simple cute card using sketch inspiration from sketch # 285 over at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.  I used pattern papers and stickers from Me & My Big Ideas.  The sentiment stamp is from A Muse Studio and I stamped it with some Hampton Art ink and some random gems from my stash.  I am sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenge #69 over at Cardz TV.

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

Happy Fall

Hello Thursday, cloudy skies as we brace ourselves for the rain and wind from Michael.  Our prayers and thoughts are with those that have already been impacted from the hurricane.  Today I am sharing another Fall card created using sketch inspiration from the WCMD sketch #1 over at Sketch N Scrap.  I used more scraps of paper from my stash,  an unbranded stitched oval die and the leaf is from the Sizzix Sidekick Side-Order Set - Autumn.  For the sentiment I used some stickers that one of my scrappin' besties was about to discard.  I'm sharing this card for the Autumn/Halloween challenge over at Use Your Stuff and the Anything Goes challenge #68 over at Cardz TV.

Thank you for stopping by, hope you'll return soon.

With Sympathy

Hello and happy Wednesday, cloudy and misting in our area today.  The forecast calls for more rain and winds tomorrow as Michael makes his way.  Prayers and hopes for minimal impact for those in the path of the storm.  I sure hope the Folk Festival doesn't get rained out this weekend.  Today I am sharing a card that I created using sketch inspiration from sketch #147 over at Fab Friday.  I used pattern papers from the American Crafts Spring 6x6 paper pad, Spellbinders dies for the oval and greenery and the pennant was cut using a WeR Memory Keepers die.  I am sharing this card for the Just Us Girls Word Week #461 - Sympathy.  I am so happy that I have been using my stash but I still have lots to use as I continue to only add what is necessary!

Thank you for your visit, I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday.

Tuesday Musings

Hello and happy Tuesday, seasonal temps on the horizon.  Today I am sharing the second card that I created for World Card Making Day 2018.  I used sketch inspiration from card sketch #131 over at Sketch N Scrap.  Although I used one of their regular sketches they have additional sketches that they will be sharing all month for WCMD.   The pattern sheet of came from the My Minds Eye Hey Mister paper pad and the enamel dots are from Paper Studio.   I am trying to add more male themed cards to my stash but this one didn't make it since my husband said he needed it as I was putting it together!  I think I may do a marathon male card making session with that pad.

Thank you for your visit and I hope you'll return soon.
