Happy Valentines Day

 

Hello and happy cold Sunday, we only got a dusting of the snow storm so I'm good.  I haven't felt much like walking but I'm planning to bundle up and get it done in a bit.  I'm do another quick drive by post to share another one of the cards that I made to donate to a facility, I hope to finish them today and get them in the mail no later than Tuesday.  For this care I used sketch inspiration from Try Stampin on Tuesday, more papers from an old Stampin Up pad called Love Blossoms, it was gifted to me by one of my scrappin' besties.  I used a sizzix die to the cut the heart and a Cricut CTMH stamp for the sentiment, it came with the Artfully Sent set.  I finished this super quick card by adding some Recollections gems!  I will probably used this sketch again since this card came together so quickly with just using papers from the one pad and a die as the focal point.

Thank you for your visit, continue to be safe and have a wonderfully blessed week.

CIU #244 - Hard to Say

Hello  Friday, we are gearing up for some more Winter weather in our area.  I just hope it waits until I get home from work. Today’s card share is my design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog.  The theme is Hard to Say and the sponsor is DRS Designs, they are offering  a $20 gift certificate to their online store.

For my sympathy card I used a digital stamp provided by the vendor, a Darice flower die, pattern paper from a DCWV paper pad, a Pink & Main  stitched rectangle die set; finished the card by adding a little butterfly and a few gems.  Although I like the finished card I am not sure the color is good for a sympathy card.

Head on over to the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration, create and share your project for a chance to win a $20 gift certificate from the challenge sponsor.  The challenge starts today and ends Wednesday, February 9, 2022 at noon.

Thank you for your visit, continue to be safe and have a wonderful week.

Friday Musings

 Hello and happy Friday, been extremely busy which means not a lot of play time.  I am doing another drive by post to share another birthday card created using sketch inspiration from Try Stampin’ on Tuesday challenge #538.  I used papers from the My Mind’s Eye Life of the Party 6x6 paper pad, a few unbranded  dies, a Cricut CTMH stamp for the sentiment and some Gina Marie enamel dots. I meant to do some embossing but in my haste to get the card finished I didn’t.  Another card done and more to made as I plan to finish off this paper pad.

Thank you for your visit, be safe and enjoy your weekend.

Just a Note

 

Hello and happy Sunday evening, the snow has turned into rain. Tomorrow is a holiday so I plan to craft late into the night!   I am back to do a quick drive by post of a card created using sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts  challenge #455, this is the final project using papers from the My Mind’s Eye All Spice paper pad.  I cut the flower using a Gina Marie die, a Sizzix die for the greenery, a stamped sentiment and some Paper Studio enamel dots.  Another card done and ready to go postal later this week.

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

CIU #243 - Anything Goes

 

Hello and happy Friday, we’re bracing ourselves for some pending winter weather.  Today I am sharing my design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog, the theme for challenge #243 is Anything Goes and the sponsor is Newton”s Nook Designs.

When creating my card I started by using a stencil, one of two intentional stash items that I am using this month. I used the Newton’s Scoots By sets that includes stamps and dies.  I used color pencils, some foam adhesive and a few sequins and this card came together quite nicely!

I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more design team inspiration, create and share your project using a die for a chance to win a gift certificate from Newton’s Nook Designs.  The challenge starts today and ends Wednesday, January 26, 2022 at noon EST.
