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.

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.

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.

Hello and welcome. With no more Valentine cards to make I think it’s time for a Halloween card. Image is a Whimsy Stamps card front that was gifted to me to me by Buddy Gayle. Frame was found online. Being that the frame was a full sheet I had hubby cut out the center. If I tried to cut the opening it would not have been straight. This was way too easy to make, especially since I didn’t have to do the cutting. There’s no sentiment inside yet, I’ll have to find something that goes with that zombie face when I know who I’ll send it to.

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for one of our favorite servers that we see once a week. She has a glittery cover on her steering wheel and a glittery frame around her license plate. This week she even had sparkly shoes, so I decided to give her a little sparkle for her birthday. Background paper was found online, and I had the glitter paper. Die cut is Stitched Squares by die-namics, sentiment was printed on the computer with clip art candles added. I think she’ll like that I added a little sparkle to her card.

Hello and welcome. The idea for this card came from browsing through Pinterest. This is the layout I finally chose. I’ve had this pp for a while and I love the colors. Center strip is popped up with mounting tape, dies used are Spellbinders classic and scalloped circles, sentiment was printed on the computer. Very quick and easy. This will be going to a very special friend.

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for one of our favorite bussers at our favorite restaurant. He has a band that plays locally so I thought a music themed card would be good. He always calls us ‘love birds’. 🙂

Embossing folder is a no name one I bought on Amazon, pp was found online, sentiment was printed on the computer and cut with my paper trimmer. Sentiment strip is popped up with mounting tape. Layout idea came from looking through Pinterest.

Hello and welcome. When I found this black & white heart paper in my stash, I thought it would be perfect for the 2 masculine cards I needed. Dies used for the center sentiment piece are Die-namics stitched squares, sentiment was printed on the computer with clip art hearts added. Before cutting the strips, I dry embossed white cs then used a cotton ball and black stamp pad to get kind of brushed look. However, I also cut strips from the non-embossed and decided I liked those better but now on the picture I see I used 2 of each. Guess that just adds a little more interest, right?
