Hello friend - TMS #569

 Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  Here is this week's card...

My paper is Simple Stories Simple Vintagle Botanicals.  It's a 2 sided pack, so I cut my panel and just turned the top around.  The ribbon and enamel dots are from my stash.  The sentiment was also in my stash of images and sentiments.  Patti, our teamie, sponsored a few TMS challenges before she was a part of our DT.   One of those times (see it here... it was over 5 yrs ago!!!), she sent us some images/sentiments that she'd stamped.  This is one of those!  Yeah, I need to use up my stash!!! 

Here's the sketch...

You're a blessing - TMS #568

 Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  My note today could be a thank you card or just a quick note of appreciation and encouragement.  I think we all can use some of that during these times!

My DP is Colorbok Light Brights.  My secret pal gave this paper to me.  She is certainly a blessing!  My sentiment is Memory Box "Each Day is a Blessing" clear stamp.  The circles are cut with Spellbinders Standard Circles, and the sentiment is cut with CottageCutz Stitched Rectangles. 

Here is our sketch for the week...

Just a note - TMS #567

 Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  I've got a note card to share today.

My image and sentiment are from DRS Designs.  I colored the flower with Spectrum Noir markers.  My DP is Simple Stories.  My ribbon and adhesive dots are from my stash, so pretty simple.

Celebrating 50 yrs x2 - TMS #566

Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  This summer, 2 special couples celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary!  That's so wonderful!  

I made 2 similar cards for them and want to show you...

The gold paper is Canson Effects. The dotted paper came from my scrap box.  I stamped the sentiment from Raisin Boat All the Write Words in StazOn ink. The hearts are Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Hearts, and the numbers are Thickers.  The twine and flowers are from my stash.  

I made this one an easel card...

The inside sentiment was in my printed-and-waiting box.  (I think it's Doodle Pantry... a.k.a. OLD!) The bottom panel is dry embossed with Darice Swirl.  

The second one is very similar... 

I used the same gold paper and sentiment.  The floral paper was from my scrap box, too.  It is embossed with Lifestyle Whimsy. The Thickers came out again.  The ribbon and flower are from my stash.  The leaves are Spellbinders Foliage. I put a floral brad in the middle of the flower. Here's a closeup...

From our house to yours - SCC #115

It's August and time for Sparkles Christmas Challenge #115, and I've got a super fun card to share! At least, I think it's super fun! :D   Our theme is "from our house to yours" and here is my interpretation...

  

Isn't this cute??!?  I love the little puff of exhaust!!  My car full of snowmen is MFT Cool Christmas stamp and die.  It's colored with my Spectrum Noir markers.  My DP is MME Vintage Christmas.  I'm sad because I've had this 6x6 pad awhile and am down to the last 2 or 3 sheets. :(  The hills and road are made with Poppystamps Stitched Landscapes.  The Merry Christmas is from Sweet n Sassy Christmas Joy, stamped with VersaFine, and heat embossed.  The trees and tiny snowflakes (see pic below) are from Raisin Boat Merry Nature.  "from our house to yours" is computer generated and cut out with Kat Scrappiness Stitched Fishtail Banners.  

Here's a closeup of the heat embossed sentiment...

And in this pic, you can see the tiny snowflakes that I added in the "sky"...
