Celebrating you Today birthday card

 Hello my scrappy friends!  Quick post here today since my son is home from college for spring break!!!!  We haven't seen him since January...totally miss him!

Here is a card I made for my brother in law's birthday later this month.  Quick and easy and pretty masculine, not always the easiest cards for me to create.

I used stamps from SU! Textures and Frames, totally love this set, and inks from SU! as well, blueberry bushel, pumpkin pie and cherry cobbler...all stamped off one time.


I was inspired from the Use Your Stamps blog, challenge #442 Birthday.  I also used the sketch from scrapbook.com Card Sketch Challenge #2 from this month, March 2022.

Celebrate - at Stick It Down

 Hello my scrappy friends! If you've gotten snow this weekend, I hope you are enjoying it and staying warm!  Here in south NJ, we've gotten about 4 inches and lots of wind!  We have a new township plow driver and he is pretty good so shoveling the driveway and street were not as hard as years past!

Now that I'm inside, here is a card I made for my niece's 9th birthday next week.  The sketch from Stick It Down was fantastic in using some scraps of pretty patterned papers!

Christmas Sketch-N-Scrap card

 Hello my scrappy friends!  Working stinks I have to say!  I really miss making cards and LOs on a regular basis but I was able to create just about 70 Christmas cards and they were in the mail before Christmas!!  I used this sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap to make a card for a co-worker.


I was able to use several paper scraps and a missed stamp set (SU! Delicate Details) and an edge die (STAMPlorations Art Edges) to create this card. so much fun using so many different supplies!


Happy New Year everyone!  You have my prayers for a healthy and happy 2022!

Stick It Down Birthday Card

 Hello my scrappy friends!  Happy Thanksgiving!  I've started a real full time job in our local middle school as a secretary in the nurses' and guidance offices.  The responsibilities are more then I had expected but I'm getting there.  It's nice to have a regular pay check once again after 17 years of not working full time!

I was asked by my nieces to make birthday cards for their mom, my sister.  Below is one of the cards inspired by the Stick It Down card challenge.  I used some pps from a fall stack that are a little busy, but after cutting and inking them, I kinda like it!  I fussy cut the feathers from a retired CTMH stamp set. 

 

Thanks for looking and commenting!

Never Too Old

 Hello again my scrappy friends!  I'm on a role today.  Made a card and now a LO!

This LO is of my daughter at my sister's house for Easter this year...hunting for eggs!  I have so many other pics to scrap from Easter but these two fit the sketch from Sketches In Thyme #482 sketch and challenge #562 from Lasting Memories, using option number 2 - line up your photos across your LO.

 


 

I used so many long forgotten supplies---stickers, rub-ons, paper, my cricut.  Its a great feeling to use what I have!

12th birthday card

 Hello my scrappy friends!  It's been a while since I've posted...it's been a while since I've created.  I start a full time job tomorrow.  I haven't worked full time in 17 years, little nervous here.  We recently moved out son to college, another big life thing.  Lastly, our daughter begins her senior year of high school later this week.  Lots of big changes in my life, feeling a little overwhelmed but excited nonetheless!

To help my nerves, I squeezed in some time to make a card for my nieces 12th birthday party this weekend. I used the sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap blog #200
