Sonic Valentine

| Gerry Morse

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our 5 year old great-grandson. When my granddaughter told me he was really into Sonic I had to Google it. There were lots of images to choose from. Image and name label are popped up. Name labels are SU modern label and word punch. Ef used is Cuttlebug Hearts, small hearts are from a small hand punch. When I flipped the embossed panel over to add the adhesive, I thought the debossed side looked better so I used that side.

Thanks for stopping by your visits mean a lot to me. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

Can You Handle The Pressure Challenge

The challenge with Can You Handle the Pressure is the required embossing folder plus a twist of borders. My embossed border is Cuttlebug’s Pop Culture folders. There are four different strip borders in this set but I decided on the circles folder. I paired the Pop Culture with Taylored Expressions Abstract Accents stencils & stamp combo adding a sentiment from TE’s Mod Sentiments stamp set. The strip sentiment from Buddy Bonnie was layered with black cardstock for a little dimension. Tim Holtz Distress Oxide carved pumpkin spray was used for splatter. Inks used are Gina K’s Moonlit Fog and Fresh Asparagus and Taylored Expressions Peaches n Cream and Dijon.

A little different for me but it suited me today for some reason!!! LOL!

Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. Take care and be safe.

Love Sweet Gnome

Cardz 4 Galz #191

It is a shaped card challenge at Cardz 4 Galz that my Valentine Gnomes will be joining. This is an adorable die set from Taylored Expressions called Gnome Sweet Gnome. There are 4 gnomes connected together that come with different hats and hair and other accessories. You can accordian fold the group of four gnomes and they stand alone. For my shaped card, however, after dicutting the basic shape I separated the gnomes keeping two together that could make two free standing cards. Once all of the die cutting is completed the gnomes go together pretty quickly. I think I may be making seasonal and different holiday gnomes!!

Wobbly Bear

| Gerry Morse

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our 2 year old great-granddaughter. Pp is from the Silhouette, Bear image is online clip art fussy cut with a wobbler added. After downloading the bear I added the sentiment. I see the sentiment doesn’t look quite centered and straight since the bear is a little tilted but that’s how she’ll know GGG did make it. When I saw a scrap of pink glitter paper on my desk I thought hearts punched from that would make a nice border.

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

White 3 Ways

AAA Cards Challenges #232

White on White Clean and Simple is the challenge with AAA Cards. I did white on white three ways on my card. The frame and the die cut are both shimmer white cardstock, the swiss dots embossed panel and card base are both white cardstock and the sentiment which you probably cannot see is white heat embossed below the focal point. Sentiment is Gina K Designs Scripty Sayings 2, my border is Tatlored Expressions A2 Thin Frame Cutting Plate.

I decided on the shimmer white to add a little more dimension for my card project.

Paper Dragonfly Creative Challenges: Challenge #13

Party Time is the challenge + dragonfly is the challenge for the Paper Dragonfly Creative Challenges blog. What goes better with a dragonfly but a toad and a toad in a tutu dancing in the rain and puddles? My quirky sense of humor was the inspiration for my card today. After diecutting the background, I stamped, colored and fussy cut the Stampendous Tutu Toad stamp, added my Gina K Designs dragonflies from Dreams Take Flight stamp set and stamping the sentiment, also GKD, Blooming with Blessings stamp set.

Now I just need to figure out which friend will appreciate my quirkiness!!
