Thursday October 31, 2024

Hello and Happy Halloween

It's time for a new challenge over at

Theme: Showcase your pattern papers


This is a fun way to use your designer paper scraps. I used a Stampin up punch and stampin up papers and arranged on the card base and cut the excess off. I then took some white script dp from Quick Quotes and cut about 5-6 and layered and add the Reverse Confetti thanks. I finished with some Diamond drills left over from diamond paintings I've done.

Cardz 4 Guyz #359 - Life is beautiful

Tuesday October 29, 2024

Hello everyone

We have a new challenge over at

Theme: Taste of autumn




For my card I took a piece card stock and folded it for an A2 size. Then cut off about an inch from open side. Then used a piece of designer paper from Stampin up and cut it a little wider than A2 size then cut off about 1.5 inches and took the largest piece and put on the front of the card and the 1.5 piece on the inside. I love the look of the continued piece. I added the sentiment having it go off the side. This is so easy and with so many beautiful dp out there it's a great way to get the full joy of using them and creating.


Inside of the card. Still enough room to add your greeting

Hello and Happy October

We have a new challenge over at 

Cardz 4 Galz #235

Theme: Circles

                              

Oh if only you knew of the different things I came up with and hated.. I then decided to pull out some scraps and three punches and just start punching. then I started stacking, when I found colors I liked I then used my Quick quote chalk ink and go around the edges and glued together as I did each so I wouldn't look what I liked and already stacked. Then I tried different backgrounds and chose the black. I then laid them out again as stacks so they were all different. and had to make a few half ones to fill in the blank space. I liked it so glued them to the black. Then I cut it down again to get the over hang. Then I had to figure another color to make it an A2 size. I chose this rust red color.  Now the sentiment, so I found this Reverse Confetti hello friend and cut 4 sets and adhered together and added to the card. I had to add my left over diamond drills for some bling,. I ended up liking it a lot and will probably use the other ideas on something else or maybe not.. lol

Do-Al(l)creative #94 - the absolute deliciousness of fall

Tuesday October 1, 2024

Hello.. Fall has arrived in the pacific northwest.
We have a new challenge over at

Theme: make your own background using a stencil


I've used this stencil from Stampin up one other time and I did not like the way it came out. So I've put off using it and then thought ok, time to play and create - it's only paper and I have a trash can under my craft table... So I did the first stencil all over the card front. Then second stencil - ok I'm liking it so far.. I went on to the center two stencils.. I remembered last time I did the leaves as they should of been and didn't like they way the went with the flowers so didn't use them that way. I used one of the leaves to fill in the white areas on the front. I like it.. turned out to my satisfaction.. Ok now how to add the sentiment. I didn't want to cover the flowers so stamped the Tech. Tues. on vellum and added. I finished with some diamond drills. I cut it down just a little so I could add it to a piece of card stock. What do you think? I am liking layering stencils. I have a few. Now to create with them
