Hello and welcome. Today’s card was quite a challenge for me. A few days ago I found this video for the Box Seat Card and just had to try it. Here’s the link

The front side is for our granddaughter, Bella, and the back side is for her boyfriend, Carter. Focal heart is Sweet & Sassy Framelits from SU with clip art hearts and popped up. Center piece behind the heart was dry embossed with a Cuttlebug hearts ef. Small white hearts are a small hand punch with Clear Wink Of Stella on them. Silly face hearts are clip art and fussy cut. The only problem now is where do I sign it 😉

Thanks for stopping by. I really appreciate you taking the time. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe, also, keep warm & dry.

Valentine Tower

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our 6-year-old great-grandson. Top photo is the front. Patterned papers are from a 6 x 6 book. It might be Stampin Up but I’m not sure. Image is computer clip art. It took me quite a while to get it sized right. Small hearts on the back side were all fussy cut (that took care of my patience for today). Sentiment “Hope your Valentine’s Day is absolutely awesome and completely cool just like you.” is paraphrased from a couple different sentiments I saw online.

Thanks for stopping by I really appreciate you taking the time. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

valentine teddy

Hello and welcome. Finally, I got started on Valentine cards. This one is for our 5 year old great-granddaughter. My first thought was to use a digital image and color it, but my fingers were not cooperating so I used computer clip art. Die cut hearts are Sweet & Sassy Framelits by Stampin Up, corner hearts are a small hand punch. All hearts are popped up.

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

Dino Birthday

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our youngest great-granddaughter who loves dinosaurs. The pp was found online, dinosaur is computer clip art fussy cut and popped up, word bubbles are from and online coloring page, also fussy cut and popped up. Inside sentiment is paraphrased from a couple different ones. Since her dad and maternal grandpa always call her Bernadette, but everyone else calls her Bernie, I added her name both ways.

vintage 1949

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for a very good longtime friend. As much as I try, I just can’t get away from the fractured design. Again, pp and sentiment were found online. Center diamond die cut is Stitched Squares by Die-namics. After making so many this is the easiest card design for me to make. My motto is to always take the easy way out. 🙂

Thanks for stopping by your visits are greatly appreciated. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

new year resolution

Hello and welcome. It feels good to be getting back to normal after the holidays.

Today’s card is Dear Old Sister’s first chuckle of the month card for 2024. This time I decided on a mini slimline. As usual, border, images and sentiment “My new Year’s resolution is to be more positive and less sarcastic. Like I won’t screw that up right away.” were all found online. DOS loved it.
