Hello and welcome. Another Christmas card done.

Again, patterned paper was found online, and image is clip art, die used is Stitched Ovals by Die-namics. Glitter music notes are a small hand punch. At first, I tried to color a stamped image, but my hands were not cooperating. I like this clip art image because it shows both lantern and music.

Hello and welcome. It has been a few years since I did any stenciling so I thought it’s time to try again. Since it’s been so long I decided not to use more than one color.

Stencil used is by Hero Arts, die cut tag is Spellbinders. For just a little sparkle I added Wink of Stella to the label. Sentiment was printed on the computer and punched with a Stampin Up punch and lightly sponged the edges with Whisteria Wonder. Pearls were in my stash.

Sun is a small hand punch lightly sponged with Summer Sun stamp pad from Stampin Up.

Hello and welcome. After a wonderful 5 day visit from our daughter, I’m back to posting.

While our daughter was here, she and her dad played many games of scrabble, so she decided to make a Father’s Day card with a scrabble theme. I Googled scrabble board clip art for the background paper. We cut 1/4″ squares that she wrote the letters on and glued them down. We made the card square so it looked like a game board. We also went shopping and she bought a gift to go with the card and left it here for me to give to him. I can’t wait to see his reaction to the card.

Hello and welcome. I’m so happy that that the Two Old Bats challenge helps me build my Halloween stash all year. I had to get this one finished today because our daughter will be here tomorrow. I am so excited.

Hello and welcome. When I saw buddy Johanns’s card for the Cardz 4 Galz challenge I really liked it and thought it would be fun to try to CASE it.

I started with a 4 1/4 x 11 cardstock, scored at 2 /12 & 6 1/2. Patterned paper was found online, “clasp” is a brad from my stash, and I put a piece of Velcro behind it to keep it closed. Pearls in the bottom corners are also from my stash. Handle was cut with Stitched Circles by Die-namics.
