You warm my heart - SCC #168

Happy New Year to you!!  Wishing you all a wonderful and blessed 2025! 

New year, new month, and new challenge at Sparkles Christmas Challenge.  I know... Christmas was just last week!  But if you sent all your cards, you need to start working on new ones. :)   Our theme is "warm and cozy."

I embossed the front of an A2 card with Sizzix Eileen Hull Sweater.  My mitten is Papertrey Ink Mitten Die cut from Carta Bella A Wonderful Christmas.  I always cut an extra strip and crimp it for the band at the wrist.  My leaves are Poppystamps Delicate Poinsettia.  My sentiment is Technique Tuesday Hello Winter Sweater that I cut (and matted it) with Die-versions Stitched Circles. I added a double bow of baker's twine behind it.  

I hope you come play along at Sparkles Christmas Challenge! 

Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day!

Hello again!  It's time for a new challenge at Cardz 4 Galz!  Our new theme is "spring flowers with punches/dies."  I used dies on my card...

My DP is Crate Paper (weirdly, there is no name on the 12x12 pad).  My flowers are Technique Tuesday Cosmos.  The sentiment is Raisin Boat Flourishing Thoughts.  The tag is SSS Tiny Tags. 

Please come play along with us at Cardz 4 Galz! 

Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day!

Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  My card is Christmas-y, but I'll probably use it as a Christmas thank you rather than a greeting card.  

All this took was some red and Kraft cardstock and some leftover strips of Christmas paper.  The red is embossed with Sizzix Sweater by Eileen Hull.  I just got this, and I LOVE it!!!  My image/sentiment is Technique Tuesday Hello Winter Sweater.  I heat embossed  it in white and added a touch of color with my Spectrum Noir markers.  The few scrap strips finished it off.  

Here's the fun sketch...

best wishes on your Retirement - TMS #662

 Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  I wish I were posting about my retirement...   Just think of all the time I'd have to make cards! LOL

The flowers are Technique Tuesday Cosmos Flower die.  I embossed the panel behind the flowers with Tim Holtz Dotted Lines Set EF.  The words are Die-versions Everyday Complements and an unbranded set of letters.  I cut them with fun foam, too, to pop them us a little.  Just a touch of Recollections adhesive pearl flourish to finish it off.  (My paper was all from my scrap box.)

 Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!  Welcome to our first sketch of 2022... which is a revisit of our DT's favorites from 2021. :) 

This week, we are playing with Andrea's favorite (I'll show you below) and here's my card...

This is a Christmas thank you card.  My image is Technique Tuesday Hello Winter Sweater that is white heat embossed.  My paper is AC Let It Snow and Dovecraft Winter Blooms.  I used MFT Stitched RicRac and CottageCutz Double Stitched Ovals dies and Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder. 

I actually made 3 of these...

Here's Andrea's favorite sketch...

Wedding day wishes - TMS #619

 Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches! I'm been making lots of sympathy cards lately, but this one is a happy card! :)

I needed a card for a wedding, and had made one that was very traditional.  Then I decided I wanted to make one a little less so, and this is it. 

I embossed my background with Darice Crackle.  My flower is Technique Tuesday Cosmos.  My paper was from my scrap box, and the green twine was from my stash.  My sentiment is Papertrey Ink Wedding Mini Stamp Set and cut out with Kat Scrappiness Stitched Fishtail Banners. 

Here is our sketch...
