Theme: J for just kidding.. make it funny

I used a stamp from Katzelkraft.. This dog is so cute.. I colored with copics and cut it down and added it twisted to the background. I don't remember company name and it was by it's self in my stash of papers.

 added the Sugar pea sentiment to a scrap and using Stampin up circle die and added to the card. I finished with some left over diamond painting drills. Hope this card made you chuckle.

Cardz 4 Galz #284 - Merry Christmas

Thursday September 3, 2026

Hello

We have a new challenge over at

Cardz 4 Galz #284

Theme: Interactive - any kind

I knew what I wanted to make but didn't know how so I just created. It works but not as pleased as I would like to be....

I cut a strip out of the card front. I then stamped the Simon Says trees and snowflakes with Stampin up ink. I added some ink to the ground for snow. I had a stamp I think for Rubber baby buggy bumpers that was hills so stamped that in the snow so look like mounds. 

I cut the bear out of white dp and the bear is an Amazon die. He's so cute. I stamped the Merry Christmas on a scrap strip and added it for the pull piece. I added the bear to this piece. I used a Marvy punch to cut the half circle for the pull area. I added this to a card base.  It works.. lol  

                                                This shows the bear sliding over

Sparkles Christmas #188 - Wishing you a jolly Christmas

Tuesday September 1, 2026

Hello

We have a new challenge over at

Sparkles Christmas #188

Theme: How sweet it is

I had to borrow a Pumpkin monthly kit from my Stampin up friend. I did not have anything in my large stash of stamps that fit this theme. I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with for this theme. 

It had this cute ginger bread house and arch was another piece in the kit that fit over the door and I used my arch die to cut it off the other piece. I stamped the sentiment that was in the kit. I added twine and used a piece of glitter paper and a Marvy punch to add the snowflake to the twine bow. I used a Stampin up embossing folder for the background. I added the ginger bread house and added the candy swirls to the card. I added this to a piece of dark green card stock.

Alphabet challenge - Keep smiling

Friday August 21, 2026

Hello 

We have a new challenge over at

Alphabet Challenge

Theme: I - for insects

I was over at my friends house just visiting and we decided to create cards.. I saw a template she had on her desk that had circles cut out of it. So grabbed the Ranger inks and three colors and just did circles where I thought they should be. 

Once happy with that I used her large Butterfly stamp and stamped it. I added the Simon says sentiment and a few diamond drills. I love how this came out. Was so simple but effective.

Cardz 4 Galz #283 Happy Birthday

Thursday August 20, 2026

Hello

We have a new challenge over at

Cardz 4 Galz #283 

Theme: Kraft and Blue

This was a fun card to create. Again I chose to use paper colors vs. copic coloring.  The products are Stampin up. The happy birthday ??? no idea but I like it.  I chose some different blues to work with and die cut the images and laid out different ways and came to liking this layout best. I added the white pieces as it felt like it needed more to fill in the gaps. I added the ribbon and the bling. I added it to a dark blue base.
