Birthday wishes - TMS #590

Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  Here's my quick and easy, but still nice, birthday card...

My paper is from my scrap box.  (I'm really, really trying to use what I have rather than buying more even though buying new paper is so much fun!!! LOL)  My sentiment is from Raisin Boat's You Said It! and is heat embossed.  My flower is Tim Holtz Small Tattered Flowers, and the brad is from my stash.  

This week, we are revisiting Margreet's favorite from last year.  Sometimes I take a little (or a lot of) poetic license with the sketches, but I followed this one very closely...

Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to go check out the creations from the TMS DT...

Wishing you comfort - TMS #588

 Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  We're still working of favorites of 2019 and this week it's mine.  This was sketch #563 on July 14.

Unfortunately, I've needed several sympathy cards recently so I made one with this sketch...

The paper from MME Portobello Road is a soft teal and looks much better IRL.  My rose is Die-namites Rosy Rose.  The sentiment is from JustRite Sympathy Handwritten Sentiments. 

I took some poetic license with the sketch, as you can see...  (If you want to see my previous card with this sketch, click *here*)

Hibiscus thank you - TMS #587

 Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  We had a lot of wonderful entries in our Annual Anything Goes challenge!!  Thank you for playing!!  

I had hoped to have extra time in my craft room over the holidays, but... nope, did not happen.  I do need several thank you cards, so I popped in and put one together pretty quickly...  but didn't like it, so I made another... this one.  

My DP is Simple Stories Simple Vintage Botanicals.  My flower is Sunny Studio Hawaiian Hibiscus.  I have to admit that I had this stamp/die in mind when I created this sketch last year.  I stamped the flower with Catherine Pooler Coral Cabana, Samba, and Rockin' Red.  I cut the leaves from a scrap using a leaf from TH Small Tattered Flowers. My sentiment was sitting on my desk just waiting to be used. ;)  

Here's our sketch for the week.  [You don't have to use hibiscus. ;) ]   We are revisiting the DT's favorite sketches from last year.  Andrea's choice is first up...

Have a Sweet Christmas - SCC #120

Happy New Year!!!  Only 51 weeks until Christmas!! LOL  

At Sparkles Christmas Challenge, we play all year long to try to be ready when Christmas comes around.  2020 was a bit of a challenge in many ways, one of which was my card making, so I'm hoping to do better this year.  So here is my first card of 2021...

Our theme this month is Holiday/Christmas Treats, so I've got a gingerbread house...

If you think the shape looks, odd, it's because it is partially open in the pic.  Here's the inside...

My image and sentiment were in my printed-and-waiting-to-be-used box, so I'm not completely sure, but I think they are Doodle Pantry. 

We'd love to have you start your cards and come play along with is at Sparkles Christmas Challenge! 

Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day!
