Happy Thanksgiving

Hello and welcome. Now on to Thanksgiving cards. I wasn’t very sure about this one till hubby said he thought it looks good. Patterned papers were in my stash. The scalloped edges were hand cut with decorative scissors. Stitched dies used are ones I bought on Amazon and don’t have a brand for them. Sentiment was printed on the computer. Pretty quick and easy.

Last ’25 Halloween Card

Hello and welcome. Thought I was done with Halloween cards for this year but then I realized our cleaning lady will be here on Halloween.

When I was looking through Pinterest, I saw this background image and thought it would work well with the witch and cat die cuts I had just discovered in my Halloween stash. Sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program. It took several tries to get it placed just right but I think it’s in a good spot.

golfing Skeleton

Hello and welcome. Yup, another personalized card. This one is also for a busser at our favorite restaurant, who plays a lot of golf. We’ve been going to this restaurant so long the entire staff is like our second family. We’ve known this guy for several years and since our grandson, the same age, is in MN he very kindly listens to my grandmotherly advice. Background paper and golfer image were found online, gates are a Tim Holts die set.

Rockin Skeleton

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for the busser that keeps our coffee filled every Tues. morning. He recently told us he plays bass guitar in a band, so I just had to find a skeleton playing a guitar. It’s amazing what you can find online. Pp and image were both found online. It took a little trial and error to get the sentiment placed just right. I’m very happy with it and hubby likes it too. I found the measurements here https://imastamping.blogspot.com/2023/09/bag-of-bones-missing-middle.html

Hello and welcome. This turned out to be a very fun card to make. I love those creepy little guys from a no name die set I got on Amazon and thought they might make a fun fractured card. Bats are from a Tim Holtz die set. Sentiment square is Stitched Squares by Die-namics. Background paper and sentiment were both found online. The strips were cut using an antique photo paper cutter.

Birthday Arrow

Hello and welcome. I thought it was about time to try a different fold. Thank goodness there were measurements posted on Pinterest. Patterned paper was found online. Before adhering the pp I edged the pieces with a marker matching the cardstock color. Flower is from a small hand punch with Wink of Stella added for a little sparkle, center gem is from my stash. Sentiment was printed on the computer and punched out with Stampin Up’s word window punch and mounted on the modern label punch.
