Hello and welcome. Today’s card will be entered in the Peace On Earth challenge. Pp and candy cane foam stickers were in my stash. I didn’t even know I had those stickers till I went rummaging through some of my stash. I have no idea of when or where I got them. Frame is Stitched Oval by Die-namics. Santa Teddy image was found on an online coloring page and colored with Copic’s. Corners of pp were punched with a small circle punch.

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

Hello and welcome.

Today’s card is for my niece. The saying, “9 out of 10 children get their awesomeness from their aunt” was found on Pinterest. Adding 9 children seemed like a good idea so I Googled ‘Children Playing’ clip art. There was a little editing to do but it was kind of fun. Soft sky background was made using a cotton ball and Bashful Blue stamp pad. Since I don’t have a cloud stencil, I just tore the edge of a piece of paper. For just a little texture I doubled scored all 4 edges. I usually put a sticker on the back of my cards with my name but for this one I’m putting Awesome Auntie.

Glad you stopped by to meet Frankie. He’s being entered in the Two Old Bats challenge. This was not a lot of work. Frankie is from the Silhouette. His face seemed a little blah, so I tried to mark it up a bit with a stylus but that didn’t work out so well, so I used a cotton ball and black stamp pad to sort of mess up his face. Since I cut him a little too big, I wasn’t able to keep a border around the pp. Pp was found online.

Today’s card is DOS’s chuckle of the month. Sentiment, “My husband always takes the garbage out.. …but never me” is from a Mother Goose And Grimm comic strip. Background papers and image were found online. DOS liked the card and said her husband had never even taken the garbage out. Hope this qualifies for the White with one other color challenge at DoubleD

I thought a slimline card would work pretty well for this Can You Handle The Pressure? challenge. Embossing folder used came with my Gemini. Butterfly die is Vivienne & Darla Butterfly by Memory Box. At first, I had the blue layer directly on the yellow base but it didn’t look quite right and since the butterfly overlay is black I thought a black layer would really add a lot. Was I right?

Grass is a MS punch, birds are from an online coloring page. Coloring of bike and birds was done with Copic’s, bike is popped up. For the bike trail I used a cotton ball and black stamp pad.

When I saw this image I immediately thought of my second granddaughter, who is the most like me. My son & d-i-l say, “why did she have to take after Grandma Gerry”. She has my humor and snarkiness. The only difference from the photo is that my granddaughter has always been very blonde.

The background in the photo inspired me to emboss the gray background piece with Tim Holtz Brick ef lightly sponged with Basic Gray stamp pad. Frame is Spellbinders Classic Rectangles Small. I loved making this and can’t wait till she gets it.

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.
