Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our newest great-grandbaby. Embossing folder used is by Sizzex, rectangle dies are Spellbinders, sentiment was printed on the computer and cut with my paper trimmer and corners rounded with a punch. Ribbon was found in my stash.
Photo used is one my daughter ‘Grandma Lisa’ sent to let me know how happy Georgia was that my Pacemaker replacement surgery went well.
Thanks for stopping by I really appreciate you taking the time. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.
Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our middle granddaughter. Being that copper and wool are the traditional gifts for the 7th anniversary I decided to go with copper. Instead of going online and finding penny clip art, I actually scanned a penny. I found I had a circle punch the size of a penny, so the paper pennies are actual size. Sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program. I added a little note inside explaining the reason for the pennies. This is really pretty simple, but I do like it.

I used the A2 Panel die from scrapbook.com and the Echo Park Americana paper pack to create this card. Since stars are in the swag, I added star embellishments using the Lawn Fawn Sequins die. I added double sided adhesive to the back of one of the solid pieces from the same pack before cutting the stars as it made it much easier to affix.
I have been adding some more browns to my wardrobe lately and thought my card is a good reflection of that. Using Taylored Expressions Rotating Gingham Stencil, I ink blended cinnamon ink on the brown cardstock and toffee on toffee cardstock, cut the panels and then had quite a time trying to line up the pattern. I’m sure there is an easier way but my design lines are pretty close to matching. I stamped TE’s Simple Silhouettes in versamark and heat embossed with champagne embossing powder. The sentiment is also TE’s Anytime Expressions die cut with Modern Sentiment Labels backer die. I must have the original labels die set somewhere and will have to make a search for it. I did make a second card with a few tweeks but forgot to upload it.
I used all Taylored Expressions products with the exception of some of the cardstock as I am participating in a card swap for their upcoming Virtual Stamp Joy 2026. Two cards completed on 8 more to go. Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. Take care and make it a great day.
It is nice to slowly add cards to my stash for this holiday season. Even though we are close to 100 degrees these days, it feels cooler to dream of Christmas.
After wsatching a recent Gina K Designs YouTube card design, I decided to CASE her card using GKD’s Funky Leaves, Scrapbook.com’s A2 card Panel Window die, Taylored Expressions inks, Edge to Edge sentiment heat embossed in gold embossing powder on TE’s Sentiment Wrap Strips die cut on vellum. It took me three attempts to complete this card. First card, I wanted to cut down and panel and cut it way too short, 2nd attempt I double stamped in versafine black and was too impatient to die cut and the ink smeared so finally this third attempt is a keeper. Thank goodness this was not a timed challenge. And for good measure I decided to make a second card using Scrapbook.com’s A2 Collage 1 die using Halloween themed stamps, ink colors and a sticker sentiment.
Thank you to the team at As You See It Challenge for choosing my quilt themed card on last month’s speed challenge as a Top Pick. I was thrilled. Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. Take care and make it a great day.
My older daughter’s birthday is today. She has a cat and I often add one to her card.
The image is from Newton Loves Cake, Newton’s Nook. It has a date of 2017 on the package. The embossing folders are many years old. I liked these as they have folders with three sizes of dots. I think the brand is Lifestyle Crafts. I used a new die from scrapbook.com to cut the X panels before I embossed them.
Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our oldest great-grandson…. yikes!! Embossing folder used is from Cuttlebug, circle die is Spellbinders classic circles, numbers were cut on the Silhouette. To make the numbers look a little better I added Wink of Stella. I like using foil for masculine cards. It’s pretty simple but I like it, so does hubby.

to another year! My nautical birthday card has been sitting on my “please finish me” pile for a long time. So I used the motivation from The Four Seasons blog challenge to get it done!! Navy and white with a bit of blue stenciling behind my navy die cut letters and a white unbranded sailboat die completes my card today.
It’s a hint of cooler weather in Pennsylvania today and a pleasant surprise. Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. Take care and make it a great day.
