KCC714 Nautical Father's Day

Happy Friday, peeps! Yay, it's almost the weekend! I have a very quick card to post before I go off to stamp with my sweet retirement community ladies!  I recently bought this amazing Cast Away embossing folder and had been playing with it along with some Boho Blue cardstock.  After shuffling it around on my desk for weeks, I finally finished it off with some images from Sailing Home.  Here we go:

I stamped and diecut some of the images on some Basic Beige and Misty Moonlight cardstocks, using Misty Moonlight ink and some metallic brads that have been languishing in my stash:

I mounted everything on a Basic White card base and added a Father's Day sentiment from Your Biggest Fan:

I am entering this in the Krafty Chicks challenge of stamps!  Thanks for visiting today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

Just Do It Birthday

Happy Thursday, peeps!  Today is Cassidy's' 13th birthday! How did that happen?  She loves anything Nike, in fact they are doing back-to-school shopping today and the Nike store is their first stop!  So I made her a Nike-inspired birthday card:

I didn't have anything that looked like those little Nike swooshes, but I did have star dies, so I cut some out of cardstock in the Nike colors, then did the same with my Tim Holtz letters. Simple, nothing fancy...the only doodad was an orange dot for the exclamation point because the diecut was so tiny, it got lost somewhere in my craft room!  On the inside, I added sentiments from Biggest Wish and Endless Birthday Wishes, which is one of the very first photopolymet sets SU came out with...an oldie but goodie!

Her family party is Saturday, so she'll have to wait until then to get this!  

I am going to enter this at the Krafty Chicks this week, where they're looking for CAS!

And speaking of birthdays, here's Cass making a birthday card for her cousin using one of SU's card kits...putting it to good use!  Thanks for popping in today--enjoy it and be blessed!

FMS535 Classic Birthday

Happy Friday, peeps!  I have a fun little masculine card using the Freshly Made Sketches sketch for you today!  Here's the sketch:

I keep forgetting that products from the mini catalog are still available, and I have a wee little bit of Hey Sports Fan DSP left, so I thought I'd combine in with He's All That for a "classic" birthday card:

I used pieces of the DSP to create my horizontal elements; the navy layer used the Ornate Layers die (retired), and the striped layer used the rectangular die from the All That dies.  I then stamped the car image on Very Vanilla cardstock with Poppy Parade ink and the sentiment in Night of Navy.  Each element was diecut with the coordinating All That die.  A little resin star finished it off, and I mounted it all on a panel of Very Vanilla that was embossed with a star embosing folder.

I stamped a sentiment from Your Biggest Fan on a stitched rectangle diecut in Night of Navy to put on the inside of my Poppy Parade card:

I like the clean simplicity of this!  Thanks for popping in today!

Mother's Day, 2022

Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Happy Tuesday, peeps!  What a crazy new year it's been already!  More about that later!  My friend Kathy gave me a couple of these Hats Off diecuts and I used one, along with a ticket from the new Your Biggest Fan set from the current mini catalog, to create a birthday card for my nephew, who is a Philadelphia Eagles fan: 

She gave me a computer-generated Eagles logo, which I fussy-cut and added to the hat, then stamped the ticket on Smoky Slate, added some Garden Green stars, and die cut it out.  The sentiment was die cut with the Tailor Made Tag die, and embellished with a green enamel dot:

I am going to enter this at the Inspire.Create challenge, where they are looking for birthday cards!  

Hope he likes it!

SO....we started the new year by Cassidy getting sick, fainting in the bathroom (three times), cutting her chin and needing stitches, riding in an ambulance, and then spending an evening in our local hospital!  She was dehydrated, so once she had some fluids and got her blood pressure stabilized, which was causing her fainting, she was able to come home!  And she was diagnosed with Covid, although her actual symptoms are very mild, thankfully! She had lots of people praying for her!

Thanks for popping in today!  Enjoy it and be blessed!
