fractured birthday

Hello and welcome. I hope those of you on the east coast are staying safe from Lee.

After seeing so many fractured/faux shutter cards I just had to try one. I found several tutorials on Pinterest. Again, the pp’s were found online, sentiment square was printed on the computer and I brought in some clip art fall leaves. Die used it stitched squares by Die-namics. It wasn’t as difficult as I thought it might be and I’m very pleased with the end result.

I will enter this at http://cardz4galz.blogspot.com/2023/09/207-leaves.html

Thanks for stopping by your visits mean a lot to me. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

what i deserve

Time again for dear-old-sister’s chuckle of the month. Sentiment “maybe someday I’ll finally get what I deserve, but I hope not” is from a Garfield cartoon. Image and thought bubbles were found online. After printing the sentiment I fussy cut bubbles and image. Oval is Spellbinders Scalloped Ovals, embossed border is Cuttlebug embossing borders. There are 5 different borders in the package. Normally I don’t emboss the card base nor the inside but I think it works well on this card.

Thanks for stopping by I really appreciate your visits. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

with deepest sympathy

Hello and welcome. The need for a sympathy card came earlier this week when hubby’s sister passed away. Tomorrow we’ll be going to MN for her funeral on Mon. She had dementia and was in a nursing home. Her daughter said she’s in a better place now. It was very hard for her children when she didn’t know who they were.

Sentiment was printed on the computer, flourish and border strip are Flourish Thinlits by Stampin Up. Iridescent Pearls from Stampin Up were add for little special touch.

christmas window

Hello and welcome. Today’s card was inspired by many window cards on Pinterest.

Patterned paper was found online. Window die is Memory Box Small Madison Window cut from a scrap on my desk. Tree was found on an online coloring page, colored with Copic’s and Spectrum Noir markers. Star has gold Stickles. Sentiment dies are Spellbinders Holiday Sentiments cut from white glitter paper. Since the tree was printed on white paper it looked too stark so I masked it and stippled the background with Distress Oxide gathered twigs.
