Happy Birthday

Good morning and happy Saturday,  a hot and humid day in the forecast.  I am stopping in to do another quick drive by post.  I have a really busy schedule today so I am trying to get an early start! Today’s card uses sketch inspiration from Sketch N Scrap card sketch #172.  I used papers from the Pebbles Birthday Wishes paper pack, Crafter’s Companion balloon dies, some twine, a stamped sentiment and this card was done.  My goal is to make as many cards using this paper pack within the coming weeks.

Thank you for your visit, I hope you will return soon.  Be safe, stay healthy!

Wednesday Wanderings

Hello and happy sunny Wednesday.  Today I am sharing a signature clean and simple card using sketch inspiration from Try Stampin on Tuesday #462.  The card came together quickly, I used mostLy scraps of paper from my stash, a Cardz TV stamp for the sentiment and a flower gifted to me from another crafter.  I am having some challenging times right now so I haven’t been able to create as much as I would like.

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

Happy Father’s Day

Hello Sunday night, I meant to share this.card earlier today but time got away from me.  This is a slim card that I made after watching several YT videos.   I used kraft and black paper, a Richard Garry stamp and die set, a Hero Arts stamp for the sentiment and some Recollections gems.  The watches were heat embossed.  This is the card my daughter chose to give to her father.  I am sharing this card for challenge #138 - Masculine over at Crafty Friends.

Thank you for your visit, I hope you will return soon.

Fun Fold - Easy Buckle Card

Hello and happy foggy Sunday morning, doing a quick drive by post as I have another post to get done.  This card is another one created as part of an online craft group, it is a buckle card, I missed the meet up so I watched this The Stampin Chic video with a few of my own adjustments since I didn’t have a label punch.  I used papers from the My Mind’s Eye Cozy Christmas paper pad, a Stampin Up stamp for the sentiment, oval and rectangle stitched dies. The inside sentiment is from a Recollections stamp set.  As with other first time projects there is room for improvements so stay tuned for the next buckle card.

Thank you for your visit, continue to stay safe as you begin a new week.
