PENNY BLACK PEACE


The white layer was embossed with two folders - the random dots first and then the trees.  I added the Penny Black "Peace" and then adhered it to the card base.  One more ready for Christmas!

We've been busy the last couple of days changing from Cable TV to Streaming.  The change went pretty smoothly and we're getting used to the new way of watching our programs.  So in the process I forgot that I hadn't scheduled anything for Wednesday or Thursday.

This will be a holiday weekend so I hope you have a great time.  However, if you life in Florida, you are all in my prayers as Hurricane Dorian approaches.  Please stay safe!

Thank you for coming by today!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JASON!


I don't normally post cards on the weekend but today is our son-in-law's birthday and this is the card I made for him.  He's a hunter and deer season will be here before we know it.  I always try to make his card appropriate for what he likes to do.

The idea for this card came from one our group made in Des Moines a couple of years ago.  Kris had all of the supplies for us but that one used a die cut Moose which was bigger than these deer.  The frame is from Die-Namics, the deer from Penny Black and the trees are from Impression Obsession.

Thank you for coming by today.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, FR. WALT


I had worked as our parish secretary for over 15 years and when Fr. Walt retired, I did too.  We continued to stay in touch so I send him birthday, Christmas and Easter cards.

The two die cut crosses are from a Spellbinders set. I added the little cross in the center from a pack of EK Success stickers.  The cross was then added to a mat which had been cut with a set of Simon Says stitched rectangles that had been embossed with a random dot folder.

Thank you for coming by today!

ANOTHER CASED CARD


I saw a card like this on Pinterest and just had to CASE it.  I used the same colors but for some reason my colors appear to be a lot brighter than the one I saw.  I do like the color combination and will probably make similar cards using different combinations.

Thank you for coming by today!
