I Card Everyone

Me and my Mittens!

I know, me again! I just shared this card with the Altenew Fan Group on Facebook and part of me just knew that you might enjoy it, too!

It all started because Bobby shared THIS card and I fell hard for

that Cozy Sweater embossing folder!!

After creating my panel, I knew that my old faithful mittens from EBE

would NOT work because the size was too small - but never fear!

My Altenew Nesting Arches were just right for 'knitting' one of my own and the

sizing wasn't a problem at all - so many to choose from!

A cuff was hand cut and given a bit of texture then mounted onto

the knitted panel - a bit of pine from HoneyBee and a gold star seemed

like the best final touch! This is another time when I wish my mom were

still here on earth - she would have knitted me a sweater like this one, for sure!

The paper one will do!

The Paper Players #809

Christy has a sketch for us over at The Paper Players - I have a bit of practice with sketches!

I have a few new dies from Memory Box in my hot little hands - you will be seeing

a LOT of birds around here for the next few weeks. Meet Wyatt:

I replaced Christy's strip of paper with a bit of greenery [HoneyBee]

for Wyatt to perch upon. A little sentiment and pretty paper - also

HoneyBee - and a double faux torn edge of DSP and vellum and voila!

I do love him, so! Thanks for stopping by!

Just us Girls #846 Stencil Week

My dear friend Bobby is the host at Just us Girls this week and I couldn't wait to make another card with my newest Altenew CYL Expressive Flora - this time in oranges and reds! Thanks, Bobby!

Here she is:

I loved that little bit of Stickles on the flower center, don't you?

Hope you're having a wonderful weekend!

This little Quacker...

... wanted to play cards with The Paper Players #808 where Stef is looking for CAS and Autumn cards! I think my Cute Quacker is dressed for the Autumn day we're having today... brrrr!

This fun paper is great as it is striped on one side and dots on the other!

That little Maple leaf is from a much-loved Lawn Fawn set and how convenient that

I'd tucked a leftover piece of alcohol-inked paper inside the packaging!

Thanks, Stef, for the fun challenge!

Somewhere out there in Instagram-land I came upon this Cozy Quaker from Memory Box and, almost as quickly as their Happy Bird, he waddled right into my cart! Get ready my friends he's already becoming a favorite!

Right out of the gate he became a 'sing that tune' card - meant for the Fall challenge at

JUGS but life got in the way and he didn't make it in time! My background is an oldie

but goodie from EBE cut from dark brown. I popped out the negative cuts and blended

a bit of black to act as the night sky. 'SHINE ON' was made with my handy DYMO Express.

Of course, there HAD to be a Christmas version:

HoneyBee paper stamped with Watercolor Pines and CP Juniper ink.

Look closely and you'll see that I've cut his hat and scarf from DSP!

'Footprints' from Kristina Werner's Finishing Touches dies.

Tom had an unintentional week off this week [water damage from a storm this Summer to the building and inside his lab] He has stayed busy, but you know his busy became my busy yada yada. All that to say sorry I've been pretty quiet this week! Lots of fun stuff coming soon though - promise!
