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

Hello and welcome. This summer I will be giving each of our 4 grandkids a special surprise gift, so I am making a personalized card for each of them. Today’s card is for our grandson who installs solar panels.

Luckily, I found this picture of a man installing solar panels. Name tag and corner strips were cut with an antique paper cutter and sponged edges with Night of Navy. The “things” on the name tag are solar tools I found online. Jake will know what they are, but I sure don’t.

Hello and welcome. Yup, time again for d-o-s chuckle of the month.

Sentiment “My mind is like a steel trap, what goes in never comes out” was a statement hubby dear made one day. As soon as he said it, I thought that would make a good chuckle of the month card. I searched Google ‘old lady clip art’ for the image. Die cut squares are Stitched squares by Die-namic’s. For a little interest I scored the 4 corners.

Hello and welcome. Today’s card came about because I wanted to use my new no name die set that I bought on Amazon.

White layer was run through a Cuttlebug ef, tulips are from an online coloring page colored with Copic’s. Frame is popped up. Since my hands don’t work so well the coloring isn’t the best but I think is acceptable.

Hello and welcome. A friend asked me to make an engagement card for their granddaughter, of course I jumped right on that.

The die cuts look grey in the photo, but they were cut from light blue metalic cardstock. Dies used are Opulent Swirls by Gemini, hearts are a small hand punch. Before die cutting I backed the metalic paper with double back sticky paper. My friend was very happy with it.
