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.

Hello and welcome.

This was my first attempt at using this layout and I’m very pleased with it (hubby likes it too). Patterned paper was in my stash, dies used are Spellbinders Rectangles. Sentiment was printed on the computer. Pp rectangles were edged with a red marker. One more card for Christmas 2024.

Hello and welcome. For some reason I wanted to make a fractured card with a garden like background. While searching Google I found this picture and I just happen to have the right color cardstock. Sentiment square is Stitched Squares by Die-namics, with clip art flowers added. Strips were embossed with a scallop ef by Stampin Up. I am very pleased with this one.

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our niece. It’s unreal how fast these kids get old.

Again, background paper was found online. Center die is Stitched Squares by Die-Namics, sentiment was printed on the computer. The 1/4″ strips were run through Stampin Up’s Seaside embossing folder for a little dimension. Inside sentiment “At 60 years old, your birthday suit requires regular ironing.” was found on Pinterest.

Hello and welcome. A friend asked me to make a simple card to welcome her newest great-grandbaby.

Embossing folder used is hearts by Cuttlebug. I embossed white cardstock then I sponged Bashful Blue stamp pad over it. Hearts are Sweet & Sassy Framelits by Stampin Up, footprints are computer clip art. Corner footprints were punched with a small hand punch. You’ll probably notice the name in the title is spelled a little different than on the card, well, she gave me the wrong spelling at first, but I did correct it. I just didn’t scan it again before it was mailed.

Hello and welcome. I saw a card like this on Pinterest and thought it would be fun to make. After starting it I realized it would fit two challenges.

The 2 background pieces were run through the dots embossing folder by Stampin Up. I used a piece of the polka dot paper for the background layer on the flower. The white flower petals are also embossed and popped up, center of flower is a small hand punch, gem from my stash. Flower square is from the Silhouette and both squares are paper pierced. Sentiment was printed on the computer.

Hello and welcome. Time for another Halloween challenge.

For the background I Googled Halloween backgrounds, skull image is clip art. Die cut is Stitched Squares by Die-namics. After cutting the 1/4″ strips I ran them through the Seaside ef from Stampin Up, then sponged them with black ink. Cardstock is Stampin Up’s Pumpkin pie. For a little interest I sponged the edges of the card base.

Hello and welcome. Today’s cards are the last 2 for our grandkids special gift.

Our oldest granddaughter has her own business making therapeutic corn wraps, so I thought a sewing theme was best for her. Die cut is Stitched Ovals by Die-namics. Half circle corner pieces have Wink of Stella on them but that doesn’t show well in the photo. Spools of thread are clip art.

Card with books is for our middle granddaughter who loves to read. She started “reading” books when she was 3. She now has quite a nice library in her house. Corners were punched with a small circle punch, label is Spellbinders. Both background papers were found online
