What I Deserve



 

Time again for dear-old-sister’s chuckle of the month. Sentiment “maybe someday I’ll finally get what I deserve, but I hope not” is from a Garfield cartoon. Image and thought bubbles were found online. After printing the sentiment I fussy cut bubbles and image. Oval is Spellbinders Scalloped Ovals, embossed border is Cuttlebug embossing borders. There are 5 different borders in the package. Normally I don’t emboss the card base nor the inside but I think it works well on this card.

Thanks for stopping by I really appreciate your visits. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.

Cat in Pumpkin





Hello and welcome. Today’s card will be for our 2 year old great-granddaughter who has 2 black kittens. Patterned paper was found online, image is from an online coloring page colored with Copic’s. Bow and nose have Wink of Stella for a little shine and Yellow Stickles were used to give light to the pumpkin. And of course, I couldn’t resist googly eyes. Grass is from a Martha Stewart punch and I used a stamp pad and sponge dauber to kind of dirty up the grass. Image and top layer of grass are popped up. Sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program and I cut the card stock with my antique photo paper cutter. This will be entered in the following challenges.

Wonky Squares

 


Hello and welcome. Feels good to be back to creating after a wonderful visit with family.

Today’s card is for our grandson-in-law. Not knowing what to do I finally decided on using wonky squares from the Silhouette. Card base is 5×5 and it took a few tries for me to get the wonky squares the right size. Pp was found online, sentiment circle was also found online but it had a swirly center that I changed to the number. Being the nasty person that I am I just had to show his age. Circle is popped up. When I set the wonky squares on the card it looked like it needed something else, so I decided to add a little texture using a crimper.

Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate you taking the time. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.
