A Little Bird Told Me


 Hello and happy Tuesday, doing a quick drive by post to share a card that I put together this morning using sketch inspiration from Tuesday Morning Sketches challenge #693.  Today is my son's birthday and his card is going to be late, he should receive it before he gets back from his trip!  When putting this card together I used me papers from the My Mind's Eye Fly a Kite 6x6 paper pad, a Stampin' Up stamp set, a stitched oval die and some Paper Studio gems.  Just a few more cards and this paper pad will be finished.

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

Double Fold Gate

 


Hello, happy Sunday, the start to a new week!  Today's card share is a double fold gate card with a ribbon closure.  I followed Creating with Kristina  video tutorial when creating my card, used pattern papers from the My Mind's Eye Fly a Kite 6x6 paper pad, a  candle die set that I ordered online, a stamp and die set for the outside sentiment and a piece of ribbon for the closure. All items used have been in my stash over a year with the exception of the candle die set!  I am sharing this card for the challenge #194 over at Tic Tac Toe Challenge.  I used the top row going across which was a die cut, fancy fold and ribbon/bow.


Thank you for your visit, wishing you and yours a wonderful week; I hope you will visit again soon.

Happy Birthday

 


Hello Wednesday, today I am sharing a birthday card that I created over the weekend using sketch inspiration from Try Stampin' on Tuesday challenge #590.  Monday was my sister's birthday so this card is going to her late (of course).  I used some Momenta papers, an embossing folder, Spellbinders circle and scallop circle die, a Prima flower and some Recollections gems.  Still working to use my stash but sad to say I did recently add somethings!

Thank you for your visit wishing you and yours a wonderful day.  I hope you'll come by soon, I will be sharing my design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog on Friday.

Winter Crafting

 


Hello and happy Monday, doing a quick drive by post to share some winter themed projects.  I created an Artist Trading Card (ATC) and a MemoryDex card using items from my stash.  When putting the ATC together I used a snowflake embossing folder, a Spellbinders die for the snowman, and a Cardz TV stamp for the sentiment. Finished by adding some gems and some faux snow from Dollar Tree!  The base of MemoryDex was cut with a die, cut the snowflake with a Szzix die, the ice skates using a Spellbinders die, the bow is a Papertrey Ink bow.  Finished by adding another Cardz TV stamp for the sentiment and some gems.  I am sharing this project for the Winter Fun challenge #488 over at Shopping Our Stash.

Thank you for your visit have a safe week and hurry back soon.

Saturday Musings


 Hello and happy Saturday, doing a quick drive by post to share a card that I created last night during a zoom meet-up.  This card uses sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts challenge #508, pattern papers from Recollection Girl Squad 6x6, and My Favorite Things Buffalo Brights,  a Momenta doily die, a heart die  and a stamped sentiment.  The challenge was to create a Valentine's Day card not using any pink or red!  I really like this sketch and plan to use it again.

Thank you for your visit, continue to stay safe, enjoy your weekend and hurry back again soon.
