Today’s card is a CASE of one I saw on Pinterest you can see here https://www.pinterest.com/pin/342555115418393891/

As the challenge is to use things from our stash, everything used has been in my stash for quite a while. Luckily the pp was just the right size. Dies used are Leafy Greenery and Stitched Ovals both from Di-namics. I used a toothpick to add glue to the leaves otherwise I would have had glue all over.

Finally, I got a card done for the Double D challenge.

Light blue squares were run through the tiny bubbles ef by Cuttlebug. The only blue brad I had was a flower, but I think it works. Sentiment stamp is from Gina K’s Dazzling Dahlias set.

Today’s card is for a very dear longtime friend (at our age I hate to say ‘old’ friend).

Border, image and sentiment were all found online. Sentiment: “Whining about getting old won’t help. But WINE-ing will.” I also printed the border on the inside. Another very quick & simple card.

Wow, isn’t this just the shortest post ever???

This card shape is from the Silhouette. The pp has been sitting in my stash for years. For the center circle I used a 3/4 & 1/2″ punch and added glossy accents to it. As I was looking at it, thinking hmm I’m not sure, hubby came in and said “that’s cool”. If hubby likes it it’s gotta be ok.

Thanks for stopping by. I always enjoy your comments. Stay healthy and safe.

After seeing Gayle & Johanna’s cards for this challenge I just had to give it a try. While trying to decide what to do, I came across this small piece of pp (perfect size for a mini slimline). The pp had been found online. Tulips were cut on the Silhouette. Tulips were cut from colored cs but I thought they looked too blah, so I used a stamp pad and sponge dauber to add a little color variation. I decided not to add a sentiment so I could use it for any occasion.
