Hello and welcome. Today’s card was quite simple to make. Background paper was in my stash, pilgrim pumpkin is computer clip art with sentiment printed in my Hallmark card program. After fussy cutting I edged it with a black marker and popped it up.
Thanks for stopping by I really appreciate you taking the time. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

I completed a Halloween card today with the candy corn focus.
I followed Chari’s pattern and example when completing this card. I used Lawn Fawn stamps and dies. The pattern is found here: https://www.lawnfawn.com/pages/embroidery-hoop-patterns
The paper I stitched on is Gina K Designs; it holds up well and doesn’t tear. The stars were cut with Lawn Fawn dies.

This is my third stitching card I have completed this year. It will be mailed tomorrow. I enjoy creating them, but it is a slow process. Thanks for sharing in my card.
Hello and welcome. Today’s card came about because I wanted to try making a punch art pumpkin. Background paper was in my stash. I used Stampin Up’s small oval punch for the pumpkin, small leaves had been die cut a while ago, stem was fussy cut. Center strip was run through an embossing folder by The Paper Studio. Sentiment was printed on the computer and cut with Stitched Rectangles Framelits from Stampin Up. Corners of pp were rounded, and ovals edges were sponged before putting together.

Sharing a Christmas card with a fun snowman…I have several cards that have not been shared here on the blog, so I chose one to share.
I chose to use my Home for the Holidays patterned paper with snowflakes and colored the snowman to match the colors on the patterned paper. Those colors are Jelly Bean Green, Turquoise Sea, and Christmas Pine and I found alcohol markers that were close all different brands. The cardstock is Turquoise Sea by Gina K Designs.

I have been busy crafting with Falliday Fest at Splitcoast Stampers along with watching Justine Hovey’s 12 Days of Christmas. Add the medical stuff happening in my household, I have been slow adding photos to this blog. Sorry for the short post.
Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for a very special friend who just lost her longtime live-in boyfriend. He was only in his mid-forties. The past few weeks have been very difficult for her so I hope this card will bring her some comfort.
Background paper was found online, center diamond is Spellbinders Classic Diamonds die, sentiment was printed on the computer. It was about time I got back to fractured cards.
One more Halloween-ish card. My card began with a circle die cut that was used as my stencil for my night sky which was ink blended with several Distress Oxide inks. The second stencil was one from SimonSaysStamp which has a combination of stars and snow. I stenciled the stars using white pigment ink. The Inkadinkadoo Halloween Trails stamp set features my birds. And lastly, Tim Holtz/Sizzix Tall Pines die was layered in grey and black cardstock. I kind of really like this card.
My card today will be shared with the following challenges:

Still no orange! LOL. My pumpkins from Gina K Designs Haunts and Harvest stamp set were colored in teal with GKD’s Harvest florish stencil sponged in a light teal and the focal panel a bit darker. Sentiment from same GKD stamp set.

I was trying very hard to NOT make a Halloween card but somehow I don’t think I achieve that target!!! The Cardz 4 Galz challenge is to pick at least 3 of these colors — Purple, Orange, Black or Green. I chose purple, green and black…..no orange. My Gina K Designs Forever Flowers stamp and die was colored with a Bic Polnyesian Purple marker and tipped with a green Ohuhu marker. After die cutting, I filled in the white outline with black marker. Next up was my background which uses SimonSaysStamp Mix and Match Circles stencil in GKD Lovely Lavender ink and a combination of Taylored Expressions green inks, the outside edge was sponged with Tim Holtz Distress Black Soot. A little splatter in black and purple, a sentiment strip in black and Martha Stewart trio butterfly punch. Still looks like Halloween to me….???
