Young Once

 

Hello and welcome. Today's card is for our b-i-l. Since I didn't have any actual burlap, I found burlap background paper online. Sentiment was also found online. Because the paper looks burlapy I thought this wonky edge unnamed die set would work well. Sentiment piece is popped up. Corner gold pieces are from my stash. Below is a look at the inside.

Seeing the "frame" from the die cut I thought it would be perfect for inside.

Birthday Advice

 

 

Hello and welcome. Today's card is for a very special gal who appreciates my humor. After a couple years of her being our favorite server we became very good friends.

Patterned paper and sentiments were found online. Outside sentiment is a recent find and the inside sentiment has been in my file for several years. I thought they combined pretty well. Oval die is Stitched Ovals by Di-namics. That seems to be my go-to die lately.

Don't Need Google

 Hello and welcome.

Time again for dear old sister's chuckle of the month. Hubby told me about a sentiment he'd seen on a t-shirt "I don't need Google... My wife knows everything." He suggested I change it to my husband knows everything for a d-o-s chuckle card. She loved it and agreed with me that my hubby actually believes it. Embossing folder used is from Stampin Up, image is computer clip art, frame is Stitched Ovals by Di-namics.

French Fry Batman

 

Hello and welcome. No card today just this french fry treat holder. Our next-door neighbor "share" their 3-year-old grandson with us and for some reason the little guy expects a treat from me each time he comes over. Hmmm, wonder how that got started. Since Riley has Batman jammies and T-shirts, I used computer clip art to make Batman stickers. It's so much fun making little treat holders. I found the template for the french fry box on Pinterest.

Grim Reaper

 

Hello and welcome. Well, I thought it was time to get back to the Two Old Bats Halloween Challenge.

Background paper was found online and using my Hallmark Card Program I printed Happy Halloween on the top. Moon is an old circle hand punch, bats are a wood base rubber stamp from Stampin Up (I'm sure it's been retired many years). Before stamping the bats I used a cotton ball and black ink on the moon. Grim Reaper, who I popped up, spooky tree and witch were all found in my Halloween stash. Reaper is a Tim Holtz die, tree is from the Silhouette, witch is an old punch I no longer have.

Pocket Change

 

Hello and welcome. It feels so good to have the COVID symptoms pretty much gone and getting back to creating.

Today's card is for our grandson who just moved from his parents' home to his own apartment. We figured he could use a little cash getting set up. Actually, there will be more than $1 in there. lol

The pocket is computer clip art that I printed on in my Hallmark card program then fussy cut. Background piece was run through a stripes ef by The Paper Studio then I lightly sponged Night of Navy stamp pad so it wasn't such a stark white. Corner grommets are from my stash. I haven't used grommets for so long I forgot I even had them.

Anniversary Love

 

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our son & d-i-l’s 31st anniversary. I’ve had this Gemini Opulent Swirls die set for a while now, but this is the first time I used it. Before making the die cuts I add double back adhesive paper to the card stock. That makes these intricate die cuts so much easier to adhere. Card base is the same color as the die cuts and the white background is textured card stock.

Bunny Ears

 

Hello and welcome. Today's cards are for our 2 oldest great-grandsons, 13 & 17. The card is a cut file from the Silhouette. Patterned papers are from Pastel Patterns Mat Stack by DCWV, black gems are from my stash. These were so easy I felt like I was cheating.
