Three Cards....Three Challenges

Hello...popping in today with 3 cards for 3 different challenges. First off, I hope you are all doing well with all the changes everyone is experiencing right now with Covid-19. I do my best to stay busy, baking, sewing or card making and even going for walks to get some fresh air and clear my mind. I feel so lucky to have s few different hobbies that keep my mind occupied.  

First up is my card for the new challenge at Ink To Paper, PROJECT Reach Out:Dear To My Heart

I used Frame It Out:Wishes and Tag Creations: Lemons for my card.

Second is my card for the 2020 Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop. The coffee die is from Stamplorations and the coffee ring is from Altenew. It was a fun card to make. I tried to recreate the color of coffee from black to very light (loaded with cream).

Third and last is my card for the challenge at Paper Smooches - Thank you is the theme. I used these sweet veggie stamps, Vegtastic and cut them out with my Scan and Cut. Used bright colors to bring them to life. A fun thank you card to send out.

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...stay home and stay safe!

Crafty Morning

Hello....Good Morning! Popping in this morning with two quick cards for two of Ink To Paper's PROJECT Reach Out: Sending Love and Gratitude.

I pulled out a couple of older stamp sets (back when they came in CD cases old) for each card.

I used Heat Prints stamps and dies for this card and the sentiment is from Stamping Simply Splits: With Love

 I used Harvest Berries and Thankful Thoughts for my Gratitude card, love the beautiful script on the word Grateful. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by....stay home and stay safe!

Two Cards....Two Challenges

Hello....popping in today with 2 cards for 2 challenges, first one is for this weeks challenge at Hero Arts - Stay Crafty with Hero #6 - Out of the Box. I used a cover plate to make my own stencil, the colors are distress oxide inks (so fun to play with). A quick and fun card to make.

Next card is for the new challenge at Ink To Paper - PROJECT: Reach Out - You Are My Favorite

I used Papertrey Ink's Noted for the chevron and the sentiment is from their Off Beat Birthdays.

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by....stay home and stay safe.

Crafty Day

Hello...popping in today with a few cards for a few challenges. I am loving the challenges from Hero Arts and Ink to Paper, it's been nice to be inspired to do something a little different. 

First card up is for Ink To Paper's Project Reach Out: Keep on Swimming and Freshly Made Sketches. I did not have any Ink  to Paper swimming themed stamps but I did have an older set, A Day at the Beach and I thought a row of rainbow festive drinks would be fun.

Here is a closer look at the clear embossed ice cubes.

Next card is for the new challenge at Hero Arts - Stay Crafty #5 - Holiday Head Start. I used Hero Art's Christmas to-go coffee cup. Love this set.

Final card is for the newest PROJECT Reach Out: Special Delivery.  I used Fresh Floral Wrap Ups from Papertrey Ink for a quick card to send to a friend. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by...take care and stay safe.

Crafty Time

Hello...Happy Easter, wishing you all a wonderful day. I hope you are well and staying safe with your families.

My first card is for this week's Stay Crafty With Hero #4 - Self Care

My idea of doing something relaxing is to be creative, whether it is at my sewing machine making face masks to donate or sitting down to make cards to send to family and friends to make them smile. 

My card is using the Artsy Trimmings Stamps and Dies from Studio Katia, it was fun to color like a rainbow.

My next card is for this week's challenge at Ink to Paper - Project:Reach Out - Missing You.

I found a fabulous card for inspiration (it's been difficult to focus on being creative with so much going on the in world) on Instagram. I loved that I had everything I needed to make them and used fun and bright patterned paper from Doodlebug - Take Note, the stamps and dies are Papertrey Ink - Heart-2-Heart #4.

I did a bit of assembly line card making and have 8 more cards to send out to family and friends.

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by....hoping you are all well and staying safe!
