Hello and welcome. Time again for d-o-s chuckle card. As usual, sentiment, image and background paper were found online. Sentiment “I made a huge to do list today… I just can’t figure out who’s going to do it.” Dies used were bought on Amazon. It’s so fun making snarky cards for d-o-s.

I’m so excited, tomorrow we’re going to MN for our granddaughter’s wedding on Fri. The ceremony will be outside with the reception in a big red barn. If it rains the ceremony will be moved inside. It is going to be so fun I can’t wait.

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 a good friend. For milestone birthday’s I like to find background paper with the number on it so for this paper I Googled ‘gift wrap 90-year-old’. There were several patterns to choose from, but I liked the colors in this one. Luckily, I had cardstock in just the right colors to match the pp. Card base and 1/8″ strips are Smokey Slate cs, cardstock for the numbers and 1/4″ strips is a piece I found in my stash. Center die cut is Stitched Squares by Die-namics, numbers are from the Silhouette. To make the numbers stand out a little more I used Glossy Accents on them.

Hello and welcome. The challenge at Just Us Girls this week is to CASE a design team member. I chose to case Vicki. While searching through online coloring pages I came across the same image Vicki had used. Coloring was done with Copic markers, then for a little interest I scored double lines on all 4 edges. Sentiment die is one I bought on Amazon; sorry I don’t have a name for it. Sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program. Once finished I actually liked it.

Hello and welcome. Today’s card happened because I just can’t resist making Halloween cards. Background paper was in my stash, creepy guys are from a die set by ALLIBBON bought on Amazon, bats are from a Tim Holtz Sizzix die set. Before die cutting, I added adhesive back paper to the cs. Sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program. I used the Tim Holtz distress tool on the background paper then used a cotton ball with black ink to darken the edges. I am pretty happy with this one.

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our grandson-in-law. After finding this distressed look pp online I thought this layout would be perfect. The pp pieces were cut with my antique paper cutter giving the edges kind of a torn look. Die cuts for the sentiment are Stitched Squares by Die-namics, sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program. Die cut is popped up. I used the Tim Holtz distress tool on the edges of the white layer. I wasn’t too sure about it, but hubby liked it, so I guess it’s ok.

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for a very dear friend. After getting a new cell phone that’s bigger than the one I had I asked her to crochet me a new pouch for it. I always have the pouch with the phone in it hanging on my wheelchair, so the phone is always with me.

Patterned papers were found online, sentiment die was gifted to me. The sentiment is popped up. I’m so proud of myself, this is the first time I was able to actually print the papers double sided.

Hello and welcome. When I saw that Double D’s challenge was for kiddo’s I thought a silly monster card would be fun to make. I decided on an easel back pocket card. Patterned paper was found online, monster is from Stampin Up’s Owl Punch. Top layer on the insert was run through an ef from Sizzix. Googly eyes were in my stash; nose is a hand punched circle cut in half. I was having trouble coming up with a mouth, so I Googled silly monster mouth clip art printed one off and fussy cut it. To make the monster look a little creepier I used a cotton ball and black stamp pad to mess it up.
