Hello and welcome. My BFF since 3rd grade asked me to make a wedding card for her granddaughter, and of course I was happy to do it. She is very happy with it.
Silhouette image was found online, sentiment was printed in my Hallmark program, frame is from Frantic Stamper Inc., Ovals and Filagree Frame. Below is a look at the inside sentiment.

I decided to play along with this week’s MFT Sketch.
I used dies from MFT for this card. They are retired and I do not have the name handy. I pulled cut ones from my stash and placed them on patterned paper that matched cardstock in my stash. The top piece of cardstock is MFT while the card base is Gina K Designs. I can’t tell you the color names as I sorted my GKD paper by color and didn’t label with specific names. The MFT cardstock is my itself, but I do not know the names. Welcome to my storage method. I know the stitched lines die is from Gina Marie Designs. The slimline circle die that I used to cut the circles is from The Stamps of Life as well as the scalloped border. The banner die is Spellbinders.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my card. The sketch is a WEBP file and I am struggling with saving and posting these. The sketch resembles an A2 size, but one of the designer samples is a slimline size. I chose that size as these floral images fit better on a slimline size.
I received a new set of dies and found a challenge to use them with.
This is the Kaleidoscope Plaid die from Spellbinders. It is a set of three dies that you can place together in different ways to change the plaid. I used the colors from the As You See It Challenge: http://www.asyouseeitchallenge.com/2023/04/297.html
Gorgeous Grape is the cardbase and one layer of the plaid. Coastal Cabana is a layer in the plaid and the scalloped circle. Parakeet Party is the green plaid layer. So Saffron is the yellow scalloped layer and circle with the greeting.
I enjoyed using this plaid die set. It was released for Christmas a couple of years ago and it is quite versatile.

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for a very special gal who appreciates my humor. After a couple years of her being our favorite server we became very good friends.
Patterned paper and sentiments were found online. Outside sentiment is a recent find and the inside sentiment has been in my file for several years. I thought they combined pretty well. Oval die is Stitched Ovals by Di-namics. That seems to be my go-to die lately.
Thanks for stopping by I really appreciate your visits. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

It has been a long time since I have made a slimline card. The CAS Colours & Sketches has a sketch that makes a slimline card, so I dusted off the cobwebs and got busy making a slimline card. I own many dies for this card size and used not even one with this card.
For this card, I used a variety of products. I used Technique Tuesday Marigold Flower (2021) coloring it with Pale Papaya and Mint Macaron both SU colors that are retiring in two weeks. The Hello die and mini strip are Gina K Designs from A Little Hello Layering Stencil Bundle (2021). The patterned paper is SU, cut down from a card base.
This will be entered in three challenges.

Hello and welcome.
Time again for dear old sister’s chuckle of the month. Hubby told me about a sentiment he’d seen on a t-shirt “I don’t need Google… My wife knows everything.” He suggested I change it to my husband knows everything for a d-o-s chuckle card. She loved it and agreed with me that my hubby actually believes it. Embossing folder used is from Stampin Up, image is computer clip art, frame is Stitched Ovals by Di-namics.

Hello and welcome. No card today just this french fry treat holder. Our next-door neighbor “share” their 3-year-old grandson with us and for some reason the little guy expects a treat from me each time he comes over. Hmmm, wonder how that got started. Since Riley has Batman jammies and T-shirts, I used computer clip art to make Batman stickers. It’s so much fun making little treat holders. I found the template for the french fry box on Pinterest.

Hello and welcome. Well, I thought it was time to get back to the Two Old Bats Halloween Challenge.
Background paper was found online and using my Hallmark Card Program I printed Happy Halloween on the top. Moon is an old circle hand punch, bats are a wood base rubber stamp from Stampin Up (I’m sure it’s been retired many years). Grim Reaper, who I popped up, spooky tree and witch were all found in my Halloween stash. Reaper is a Tim Holtz die, tree is from the Silhouette, witch is an old punch I no longer have.
