Get Well

Hello and welcome. This card started out as an arrow card but for some reason I decided to leave it like this. Since purple is my favorite color for cards and I love this pp the choice of paper was easy. Ovals are Spellbinders scalloped and classic, sentiment was printed on the computer, gems are from my stash. Well, isn’t this a short post? 🙂

Thanks for stopping by I really appreciate you taking the time. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

Springing…

forward….by…to spring! A bit of sun was a welcome sight today with more expected the next few days. I’m inspired to lighten up my mood and get ready for spring with a card using Taylored Expressions Postmarked series of layering stencils, embossing folders, Foil It panels and the original die. This is the fourth in their series and is a cute bunny/spring stamps named Springtime. Using TE’s All Planned Out 3 die set to cut my stenciled panel, then inserted into the embossing folder which lined up quite nicely. The note card was stamped tone on tone using TE’s Tweed background stamp and finished my card with Pretty Pink Posh’s Happy Mail bird adding a small Postmarked envelope to be delivered.

My card today will be shared with:

Happy Late People

Hello and welcome. Time again for dear old sister’s chuckle card. Image and Sentiment “Studies have shown that people who are always late are happier than those who have to wait for them.” were found online. The image was a sketch, so I colored it with Copic’s. For a little interest I added double score lines on all edges. D-o-s thought this was very appropriate since she spent half her life waiting for me when we were growing up. Another very simple card but made with love.

Thanks for stopping by I really appreciate you taking the time. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

Witchy Greens!

Playing around with some Tim Holtz Distress Oxide green inks and sprays for my witchy background on today’s card. My main attraction is Tim Holtz/Sizzix witch from Toil and Trouble, the pumpkin was a portion of IO trick or treater trio dies, Whimsy Stamps for the inside curly frame die and Taylored Expressions Squiggly Stacklets die. The Squiggly stacklet die cut was added because I just could cut the focal panel evenly….ugh….so it looks better with some squiggles behind it to my eyes!

My card will be shared with:

Two Old Bats Halloween Challenge: March 2026 Anything Goes Halloween

I was definitely inspired by the green background and of course that witchy witch although I believe my witch is a good witch.

Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. It’s a Spring Forward for us that still change clocks twice a year!!!! Make it a great day and stay safe.

Hey, Bud!

If this Gina K Designs Foliage Art Stencil inked in Emerald Coast is Vine-like, I’ll be sharing my card in the

Stencil Fun March 2026 Challenge which has a theme of vines/vinery.

As I was searching through my supplies, I wondered what kind of stencil I could find with a WINE theme. Good thing I read the challenge again and realized the theme was VINES not Wine! It has been a long week!! LOL! In addition to my ‘Vine” stencil, I included stamps from Taylored Expressions Framed Flowers stamp and die.

Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. Take care!

Daffodils for Spring

I made a daffodil card which I will enter in the 3B challenge for Birds, Blooms, and Butterflies and the Four Seasons challenge.

I used Newton’s Nook stamps, daffodils and also tulips. I used Ohuhu markers to color then fussy cut each image. The gray cardbase is SU. The white paper is Gina K Designs Artists Choice. I rounded the corners with a SU corner rounder punch.

Thank you for sharing in my card. Daffodils greenery are beginning to peek out. Spring will be here soon.

Christmas Tree

I have a Christmas card I will be entering in the Peace on Earth challenge.

The tree is from Christmas Wishes from Gina K Designs released in 2015 or so. I stamped it in Christmas Pine ink and die cut it with matching dies. I added splatter with a SU Nests of Winter Paper Pumpkin, 2024. The green piece is from the same paper pumpkin kit. The printed piece is Echo Park.

Thank you for sharing in my card.

Vintage Sympathy

The images from Whimsy Stamps Sympathy Boquet card fronts pack are a soft print and seem to have a vintage vibe to me. To detail the print more, I used Taylored Expressions Dots of Diamonds Embossing Folder, ink blended the edges with Gina K Designs Cranberry ink and finally swiped Versafine Clair Black ink over the top of the embossing. Sentiment was included with the card fronts. It was difficult to decide on a note card color so I opted for a very light pink and once again ink blended the edges with GKD’s cranberry ink.

My card today will be shared with:

Can You Handle The Pressure?: (2/2026) Anything Goes with a Twist of Sympathy and of course the required embossing folder.

Happy March and hopefully warmer days are ahead of us! Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. Take care!

Christmas Bells

Hello and welcome. Another Christmas card done for this year.

Embossing folder is from Stampin Up, sentiment label is Stampin Up’s Modern Label and Word Window punches. Bells are from an online coloring page, colored with Copic’s, fussy cut and popped up. Pp for the strip was in my stash and edges cut with decorative scissors. Sentiment was printed on the computer and ‘Christmas Bells are ringing’ was printed before I embossed the paper. This will be entered at ABC Christmas Challenge C for crimson, D for ding-dong (bells). I actually used the Crimson Copic marker for the bells.

Have a great day and stay healthy & safe. Thanks for stopping by I really appreciate you taking the time.
