So I don't do gardens or do gardening. (I do have plants around the house and my hubby does the weeding and watering) I hate getting my hands dirty.. funny.

Oh my I love this layered stencil set from Emily Moore Designs.. I used Ranger ink to create to flowers and leaves.. I love that you can use any colors you want with the stencils (or any stamp you want to use)

Aud Sentiments #338 - happy birthday

Monday June 1, 2026

Hello

We have a new challenge over at

Aud Sentiments #338

Theme: Monochrome / Birthday

and always a sentiment

This was a fun card to create.. The dies are from Emily Moore Design.. I borrowed this one from my friend but I do have a few of her dies and stencils. My friend showed me how to make the birthday shinny and stand out.. Adding packing tape over the card stock and burnishing it down and then run it though your die cutting machine and how you have a shinny sentiment. This was so simple to create since the happy birthday takes up the card. Emily does have a smaller one and I am thinking of getting that one.

Do-Al(l)Creatives #114 - box

Monday June 1, 2026

Hello everyone

We have a new challenge over at

Theme: Box - create a box

So after watching a few You Tube videos and trying to create while my box watching the video.. I settled on this one. I had to figure the size and had to slow the video down to the slowest speed so I could create at the same time, There are quite a few folds with this one and I like how it cam out.

I thought the front needed a little something so I added the white branch from Stampin up dies and the flower is from Spellbinder. I cut it in white and used Stampin up ink to color. I added half pearl to the center. I also used Stampin up ribbon. The paper is DCWV.

Oh my I am loving these moths.. I bought this die set from Emily Moore Designs and I loved them so much I also bought the other two moths dies. side views.. I got some stencils from her too .. I will be using them in the near future.

I just grabbed some scraps and die cut a bunch of pieces and them created the moth I thought looked good with color choices..

I used an embossing folder for the background..

Alphabet challenge - Score

Friday May 15, 2026

Hello

It's time for a new challenge over at

Alphabet Challenge

Theme: B - for Balls

So I googles what a soccer ball looked like and I cut out circle and penciled in what I thought would work and then used a sharpie and a copic pen to fill it in. I used Ranger in to shadow the edges.. I think it looks pretty good. I did the bounce and added a hint of green to the ground. I wanted a score so dug through a drawer with seldom used stamps and found these separate letter stamps and spelled out score and finished with a Paper trey ink sentiment. I am really liking this card.
