Peace on Earth Card - TMS Anything Goes

Hello! Are all your Christmas cards mailed? I have to admit that I made cards until the day I went to the post office. This Peace on Earth Card was my final card I made and it was mailed to my parents. I'm sharing it today featured in our annual Anything Goes challenge at Tuesday Morning Sketches. Originally I wanted to make something other than a card, but time just didn't allow. I do hope you have time to share your latest project with us at Tuesday Morning Sketches. It's the one time of year our challenge isn't sketch specific. You can find the challenge details and design team inspiration HERE. Thanks for stopping by and supporting my creativity!

The stamp set used on this card is called A Time of Peace from Unity Stamps.

Howl-idays Card - TMS #636

Oh my... this month is going by way too fast! I've been working on Christmas cards and made this Howl-idays Card using this weeks challenge sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches. Instead of the traditional red and green, I decided to mix it up and use red and blue colors. The image is by Newton's Nook and it was colored with Copic markers then die cut with the coordinating die. Two patterned papers were cut the same size and then I cut the ends off two corners of the plaid paper to follow the sketch. The edges of the center panel were cut using a pair of Fiskars scissors and some tumbled glass distress ink added before adhering the image. To finish it off three red glimmer stickers were added and that's it. We would love for you to give the sketch a try and link it to the challenge.

Peace Dove Cards

Good day and thanks for stopping by my blog! I have a quick post to share these Peace Dove Cards I made using the Detailed Dove Dies and Dove of Hope stamp set by Stampin' Up! (retired). The design for these cards were completely cased from a card I found on Pinterest. I love everything about it, especially the dsp, it was from a Paper Pumpkin kit called Summer Nights which I tracked down on eBay. Well... that's it! Wishing you a lovely day!🕊

Seasons Greetings Card - TMS#635

Hello! I have a quick post to share my design team card for this weeks Tuesday Morning Sketches challenge. This weeks sketch was designed by Debbie Foster and it's a great sketch for a quick card. It's unusual for there to be nothing stamped on one of my cards, but I recently bought some stickers and decided to use one for this card. We would love for you to join us this week. For all the challenge details and design team inspiration click HERE. Just remember to link your creation by 8 pm EST on Sunday. Thanks for stopping by!

Drummer Bear Card

Good day! A couple of months back my niece and her high school band competed in the state marching band competition and they won 1st in their division. My niece plays the drums, so I made her this Drummer Bear Card to congratulate her on their accomplishment. Hopefully, she will overlook the fact that it took me this long to get it made.😊 

The image is from the Party On stamp set by Winnie & Walter and I bought it during their going out of business sale a few years back. To color the image I used Copic markers and then used a stitched circle die to cut it out. The patterned paper has been in my stash for quite some time and it's called Playlist by Hampton Arts (2013). Three die cut silver stars were added for some sparkle and that's it. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your day!

Darkness Card - TMS #634

Well... it's time to say goodbye to November and it was a really rough month for me. Taking care of my hubby after his ankle reconstruction was a lot of hard work and sleepless nights. We go back to the doctor today and hopefully he will be able to put weight on his foot and walk again. I'm certainly ready to get back to a normal routine. 

I'm pretty sure I made this Darkness Card for myself using this weeks sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches. The sketch is designed by Melissa Craig and I used it for a mini slimline card which is 3.5" x 6". The sentiment is from Unity Stamps and it's called A Certain Darkness. Some stars were stamped and heat embossed with Wow! Glow-in-the-Dark embossing powder along with punched stars for the sketch detail. The star paper is from a Halloween paper pad and everything was adhered flat. Well, we would love for you to join us this week.

Holiday Dearies Card

Hello! I hope you're having a great day. Today I'm sharing this Holiday Dearies Card I made using a stamp set from Unity Stamps. The deer were colored with Copic markers in varying brown tones. For this card I didn't want to use the traditional red and green, so I picked a blue patterned paper from the Snow Much Fun paper pad by Carta Bella (2019). The layout is very simple and everything was adhered flat for easy shipping. That's it! Thanks for stopping by!
