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.

Elegant Peony

I received a new stencil by Gina K Designs for the upcoming SBC Fest in March. It arrived just in time for my alphabet card focusing on the color eggplant.

This will be entered in the Stencil Fun challenge. The color used is Elegant Eggplant by Gina K Designs. The greeting uses the same ink. It is from Sending Flowers also Gina K. The flower is SU Prized Peony. I stamped it first in elegant eggplant and a neutral for the leaves. I then added color using colored pencils.

Thanks for sharing in my card.

Merry Christmas

Hello and welcome. Today’s card came about because I wanted to use my new Arched die set. I bought it on Amazon, manufacturer GANPUB. Pp is from my stash, tree is from an online coloring page, colored with Copics. Before printing the image, I added the sentiment. Because of the arch I decided to round the top corners of the pp. This is very simple but I kind of like it.

Figured It Out

Hello and welcome. Here is dear-old-sister’s Feb. chuckle card. Image and sentiment, “Well I finally figured out why I look so old in photographs… seems it’s my face.” were found online. Looking through my stash of pp, I thought this one would work best with the image. For a little interest I rounded the corners of the background paper. D-O-S thought that is so true.

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

Spell on Me

February is not usually the time I create a Halloween card. I am playing along in the current alphabet challenge at Splitcoast Stampers. The current challenge is all about color. The letter D is Dark Colors.

The images and greeting are from SU Best Witches. The tree die is called Aspen Grove also SU. My daughter helps me die cut pieces and find my cardstock. I know the black used for the trees is Ohuhu cardstock. I am fairly sure the gray is SU. The images were stamped on Hammermill white cardstock that I colored with Ohuhu markers and fussy cut. The rock was a scrap that I rounded the corners and colored with Altenew Acrylic markers. The moon was colored with residual yellow ink on my brush.

This will be entered in the Two Old Bats challenge. I am using the WordPress App. I still need to learn how to link the direct link to the challenge.
