Dull Glossy Paper, Snowman, Thinking of You, Winter

Happy Wednesday! We still have a lot of snow and Kevin had fun plowing. 😆 Not sure anyone else is enjoying it but it does make the house extra cozy when the fireplace is on. I used my sewing machine to add the purple swatch to the white card stock. There is a cutting die for the tag but on this one, I just cut it out with scissors. Stamp links are at the bottom!

Another year older – Nov. 15, 2023

Birthday, Dull Glossy Paper

Today we have a birthday card with a turtle and two options for the inside insert. I haven’t glued the insert yet because I haven’t decided which to use. It is fun to have options!

Any turtle/tortoise fans out there? Kevin’s mom has a tortoise that roams the backyard in AZ (picture at the bottom!).

Handmade birthday card with a green turtle. In the right corner it says Celebrate you! and to the left it says, "Another year older another year wiser"

Handmade card half open. Front has a turtle and two phrases. Inside shows phrase "Have a birthday you enjoy the whole day through!"

Inside shows phrase "Have a birthday you enjoy the whole day through!" — Inside of card: Have a birthday you enjoy the whole day through!

Alternate inside stamps: F312 Happy Happy Happy Birthday, the just a note birthday is an older stamp that we are still trying to figure out what number it is and could be substituted with another but shows that stamps can last for years and continue to be used!

Inside shows phrase "Happy Happy Happy Birthday - Just a note to wish you happiness on your birthday!"

Motorcycle cards – Nov. 13, 2023

Dull Glossy Paper, motorcycles

Two simple motorcycle cards for today. I recycled an old calendar (originally from Target I think) for the background. The white swatches (dull glossy) with the motorcycles are 4×2.5″ and the color swatch behind is 4.25×2.75″. Links are below!

Two motorcycle birthday
cards with gray and white calendar backgrounds.

Motorcycle card with phrase: May the adventures continue.

Inside of motorcycle
card says: happy happy birthday

Front of motorcycle
card that says "Wishing you..."

Inside of motorcycle
cards that says, "a song in your heart, a smile in your day, a spring in your step, an outlook that's new, and skies that are bright, just for you!"

Two motorcycle
cards that showcase the raised dimensions of the front facing motorcycle. One is popped up slightly and the other a little more.

Instead of using adhesive pop ups to add dimension to this card, I just cut out extra motorcycles from scrap paper with the cutting die and layered to pop it up slightly. In picture above, the top card has two layers and bottom has three. Can you see the difference?

Wonderful thanksgiving – Nov 11, 2023

Dull Glossy Paper

Happy Saturday! The to do list is never ending and it is a day full of cleaning/chores. We are not hosting the holiday this year and are looking forward to gathering at my sister’s. Wahoo! Still need to prepare food of course but less work on the day. We just need to decide what we are bringing and have it ready. It is fun to host but with the surgery, we weren’t sure how I’d be feeling. Thankfully it is behind me now and I’m so glad I didn’t push it back. Nothing fun about surgery and told my doctors I would not be back in 2024! Links are below.

How cute is this pink and brown combo!? The white background piece on this card is white felt and the smaller white piece is dull gloss. The bouquet is colored with alcohol ink markers.

We are slowly getting back into our regular routines post surgery. Recovery is much quicker after this, hopefully, last surgery. Still resting but there’s also much to do!

Holiday cards – Oct. 13, 2023

Dull Glossy Paper, Halloween, Holiday, Thanksgiving

It’s almost holiday season! Thanksgiving is the holiday some of our extended family and friends can join us for and it is always a wonderful and special time together. We look forward to it every year!

For those who we are not able to get together with, we can send cards! It is not the same as being together in person but most years it is just not possible with family and friends spread all across the world.

Celebrate rose

Dull Glossy Paper, flowers

Happy Thursday! We went back to a familiar layout and circle rose for this card (link to previous post at the bottom!). We just skipped the extra piece of color backing the front white swatch and pop up. Opting instead to put directly on the white felt background. This makes the card easier to mail. We have a lot of half done cards but just need to get some time to complete them and take photos! Hopefully more posts soon. Stamp links are below.
