Peace & Joy Angel Card

  Hello so glad you could stop by. It's the 24th, Christmas Eve. Thought I would do a quick post with my last Christmas card for this year. Sorry for the picture quality. I should have taken a few different pictures. But was trying to get it done quickly. 

The picture definitely doesn't do this card justice. 

 

 I  had received a few stamped images of the pretty angel in some happy mail last month and knew that I wanted to use one to create my Mom's Christmas card. 

The shiny rose gold paper behind the image and for the poinsettia was from some wrapping paper that I  had saved from being thrown away after my Mom's birthday last month. It was to pretty to throw away. I glued it to a piece of white cardstock to make it more sturdy before cutting. I also cut part of the flower in vellum. Cut the leaves in blue cardstock. Colored the image in alcohol markers. 

I added some stickles to the tops of the wings. The sentiment is from a Anna Griffin stamp set that I have had for years. I also stamped one blue snowflake. 

 
 

These close ups are a little better quality. 

I think her card turned out pretty. I always try to make her card a little extra special. 

I also thought I would share a picture of a few of the little crocheted stockings that I made. I made several to hold gift cards and candy. They are about 6 inches long.

 

 

They are pretty simple to make and work up fast. I'm not that great at crocheting,but I do like how they turned out.

It's done in half double crochet. If you would like to make some you can find the video on youtube.  Search Crochet Mini Christmas Stockings. The woman goes by  MummaJ Crochet . I did make mine a little bigger than hers so that they would fit gift cards and candies. I think she did hers in cotton. I did mine in acrylic.  

 

My great nephew and his wife had there first baby last night so I quickly made a little stocking for them to hang on their tree for Luna's first Christmas ornament. 

 

 

Did it in pink and white and it measures 3 inches. You can find this one also on youtube. The crocheter's name is  Zhielle's Creation.

 

Well I have got to get off here. I have so many things to get done today. The grandkids are coming over later. Going to make some Apple Dumplings, Hot Chocolate and watch Christmas movies.

Wishing you all a wonderful and peaceful Christmas. Blessings to you all!

Not a Creature was Stirring Card

  Hello, Hope your doing well, Finally got my gift wrapping done yesterday. Still waiting on one more gift that I purchased on Amazon. Hoping that it gets here. It's one for my grandson. Getting a bit nervous about it. 

I have been busy getting things done. Still have lots to do.

I thought I had better get this card posted. Another easy one. A napkin card.

One day my grandson was here when I received some happy mail. This was one of the napkins that was in it. He said that's the one that I want for our Christmas card. So I made this one for them.

I thought the sentiment would be cute on this card. It's from a set from Cardz TV.

Have you ever checked out Mary's stamps? She has several and they are made from high quality clear photopolymer and are made in the U.S.A. Here is a link to her store if you would like to see them.

Well I guess it's time for me to get to the housework again. Ugh, maybe I should have ask for a robot maid for Christmas. That would be nice. Well maybe a little creepy. Ha! 

Have a great day. I will be sharing one more Christmas card with you, probably Christmas Eve. Hope you can find a minute to stop by.

Happy Holidays with Snoopy

  It's the 18th of December. Time needs to slow down, Christmas will be here soon and I'm not ready. I still haven't started my wrapping. Hopefully I can get a start on it tonight.  

I do have another Christmas card to share with you all. 

This one was made using a napkin and I think it's so cute! I love the sweet image of Snoopy and his friend  Woodstock.

 I used some blue glitter cardstock for the back layer and I also added a white glitter snowflake that I punched out with a Martha Stewart punch. 

 

 

I made three of these cards this year. I love how quick you can create a card using a napkin. 

That's it from me today. I will be sharing another Christmas card in a few days. Hope you can make it back.

Be Merry & Bright Christmas Card

 Hello and welcome to my blog. Day by day we are getting closer to Christmas. I think I am done with all my Christmas shopping. Now just have to get the wrapping done. 

I belong to a great group of crafter's on Facebook. Recently I received a wonderful happy mail from someone in the group. She sent me a brand new stamp set from Close to My Heart called Created to Shine.

 

 

 

 

Since I received  it so close to Christmas I thought that I would try making a Christmas card with it. I know it's not a Christmas stamp set, but I think it works. I colored the lights with alcohol markers. The sentiment stamp is from a little set I got years ago.

 Here is a picture of the stamp set in case you would like get one for yourself. 

 

 

That's it from me today. I will be sharing some more Christmas cards. Hope you can make it back. Would love for you to leave a comment. (They make me Smile)😁

Merry Christmas Stocking Card

  Hello paper crafter's, this week has flown by. Already Friday, I have been busy creating Christmas cards.

 I usually mass produce the same Christmas card. But this year I am making several different kinds. Hard to make just one kind with all the fun Christmas crafts I have. 

So here is another one of my cards.

I think that stocking is so cute, It's made by Kaiser Craft. First time using it. I had won it in a kit a few years ago. Had forgot that I even had it. 

On the post before last, I used the other stamp set that had come in the kit. 

The sentiment is from a Cardz TV set called Tiny Tidings.

Other craft items used are a Snowflake embossing folder, Rectangle rounded stitched die and a border die. The border die is one from the Dollar Tree. The paper is from Hobby Lobby or Joanns. Colored the image with alcohol markers.

I think it turned out cute, It's going to a home with two little boys. I thought they would like the stocking and candy cane paper.

Hope you can make it back. I will be having some more Christmas cards to share.

Christmas Tree Farm Card

  Hello, I'm back today to share another Christmas card with you. This one was an easy to make. I used a napkin to create it. 

I had gotten a few different napkins in some happy mail. This was one of them and thought it would make a nice Christmas card. The only thing I added was some jute twine. Added a sentiment on the inside. I think it has bit of a vintage look to it.

Thanks for stopping by. I will be posting some more Christmas cards, so hope you can make it back.

Peace, Love, Joy Christmas Card

  Hello, Happy Wednesday to you, So nice that you stopped by. It's now December, Tis the season to be busy making Christmas cards and other Christmas projects. I have been busy making some of my cards. Thought I would share this one with you.

 

 I recently won a little giveaway on youtube. It was two different sized round metal cutting dies. So I decided that I would try the bigger one for this card. It's the one cut in red. Wasn't for sure if it would look right on a Christmas card. But I think it's o.k.

The bell image is from a little stamp set that I also won a few years ago and had never used it. It came in a little kit with paper, ribbon and another stamp.

 I kept forgetting that I had it because it wasn't with my other stamps. It's now with my stamps, I love Christmas bells.

Colored the image with Master's Touch and Arrtx alcohol marker's. For the background I used an embossing folder from Stampin Up called Softly Falling. 

I stamped the sentiment on a small stitched die. The sentiment is from Cardz TV called Tiny Tidings also added some blue satin ribbon.

Thanks for stopping by, Have a great day!

Fun Fold Fall Flower Card

  Hello, So glad you had a minute to stop by. It's the morning of Thanksgiving Day. I wanted to get this posted early because I have a lot more cooking to do. 

Got my desserts and deviled eggs done last night. Glad I got them done a head of time..     

I have a fun fold card to share with you today. I have no idea if this type of card has a proper name. But that's what were calling this one.

 

 

I am always needing thank you cards so for this one I wanted to use one of my older stamp sets from Stampin Up called Still Life Stems.  .

I was watching one of the youtube crafter's that I follow and she made a card like this. I knew it would be the perfect card for my flower image. 

Used Crushed Curry cardstock from S.U. and embossed it with the  embossing folder from S.U. called Tasteful Textile.The background paper is from a 12x12 paper pack that I got several years ago. 

I colored the flower with alcohol markers. The flower is stamped on a die cut from S.U. and the little die cut Thanks I had in my stash. I also die cut the same shape for the inside but one size smaller.

I really like how it turned out and it was fun to create. If you would like to see how it was created. Search for  Stamping With Amore on youtube. The video is called Fun Fold Christmas Card tutorial.

 

Since It's Thanksgiving I thought I would share my recipe for pumpkin pie with you all. 

 

Pumpkin Pie

"Ingredients needed"

1can of pure pumpkin

1 cup milk

2 or 3 eggs

1 Tbs.cornstarch 

1/4th tsp cinnamon

3/4th cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla  

Pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 375 and sit out frozen premade crust to thaw or make one from scratch.

In small bowl mix milk and cornstarch together

In large bowl combine all ingredients together.

Place pie crust on cookie sheet or pizza pan

Add foil around crust to prevent burning. 

Fill pie and bake for 10 minutes at 375.

Then bake for around 40 minutes at 350. 

Since my oven cooks hotter in the back, I turn the pie around at 20 minutes for even cooking and will lightly cover with foil near the end if it looks like it may burn.

Cool completely and enjoy. Oh and don't forget to add cool whip.

 

 

Hope you enjoyed seeing my card. Would love to know if you try the recipe. 

Would also love for you to leave me a comment. Thanks for stopping by.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Tiny ornament Inchie Card

  Happy Monday, Hard to believe that it will be Thanksgiving in a few days. I do have a quick card share for today. I decided to make one more inchie card. They are so quick to make. So I thought why not one more.

The challenge over at AAA Challenge Blog is to create a card using a one inch square or circle. The cardstock has to be smooth with no layers or embossing. 

No sentiments or anything can be on the outside of the square or circle and nothing from within the square or circle can be sticking out.  

I cut out a one inch square in red glitter cardstock. The little ornament is from an older stampin Up set called Little Holiday Wishes and colored it with S.U. markers. I also used a white gel pen. Cut it out with a little stitched square die.

It's actually been fun getting to use some of my tiny little stamps. 

It is a bit of a challenge though. The hardest part is having the urge to add a sentiment to the front. But that's part of the challenge rules.

Thanks for stopping by. My next post will be on Thanksgiving. If you get a chance stop back by. Have a great day!

Santa One Inchie Card

  Hello Everyone, hope your having a nice weekend. Not sure if you seen my last post. I had made a Inchie card. Well I decided to make another one. (Sorry for the picture quality. For some reason my camera would not focus).

Over at the AAA Challenge blog they are having a challenge where you have to create a card with a 1 inch square or circle on the front. The card front has to be smooth, No embossing or anything outside of the 1 inch area. Nothing can be hanging out side of the square either. 

I decided on another Christmas card and thought it would be fun to make a 1 inch Santa outfit.

As you can see this card was pretty easy to make. Cut a 1 inch square in red and added a strip of black for the belt and a tiny piece of yellow for the belt. I used a piece of white pipe cleaner for the fur on the bottom of Santa's outfit. Thought that was a fun added touch.

Have you ever made a Inchie card? There actually fun to make. It's definitely a bit of a challenge to create something within 1 inch. 

If you would like to challenge yourself and make one there is still time. The challenge ends on the 27th. 

That's going to be it for today.  Enjoy your weekend!

Hot Cocoa Inchie Card

 Happy Thursday, So glad you could stop by. Hope you are finding some time for some card making. I have been having fun creating some projects for several challenges. 

Today I have a hot cocoa card to share. 

This card is 4x4 size and the image is exactly one inch. One of the challenges from AAA Cards is to make a inch square or circle on a smooth cardstock with nothing else on the card. Nothing can be sticking out from the one inch boundary either. 

The stamp set is from Recollections called Winter Wonderland. Used a alcohol marker and a S.U. marker to color the image. Also took a black marker and added a black boarder around the square too help it show up against the white cardstock.

This card will probably be my last card that I link up for the Fall/Winter Coffee Lover's Blog Hop. I might get a chance to create another one. 

This card is #835 in the link up

My other projects I linked up are #127, #339, #467, #612 and #699

I love that this card was so quick to make. It was hard for me not to add a sentiment. But had to follow the rules.

That's It from me today, Would LOVE for you to leave a comment. 

Hope you all have a nice Thanksgiving.

Warm Winter Wishes Christmas card

 

  Hello and happy hump day (Wednesday). I have been busy, busy, busy in my craftroom creating cards for the Fall/Winter Coffee Lover's Blog Hop and also for some other challenges.

For today's card I made a Christmas card. This is my first one this year. 

I used a Close to My Heart stamp set called You warm my heart. I hardly ever use the color pink. Have never been a big fan of the color, but I do like it for Christmas. So I decided this card was going to have some pink. 

 

 

I stamped the first cup in Cool Caribbean Ink from S.U.. Stamped the red flower stamp, also from the set in the center and added a gem to the center. I used an alcohol marker to color the gem. Also stamped the red flower image all over the pink cardstock.

For the second cup I added some black and white patterned paper. I used a curved stitched die to create the white wrap. Then stamped HO HO HO a crossed it.  

The candy cane's are also from the You Warm My Heart Set. Snowman paper is from The Paper Studio. Used some scalloped black cardstock behind the paper.

Wrapped some Christmas twine around the bottom sentiment. Both sentiments are from Cardz TV. The set is called Tiny Tidings. Also stamped a little blue snowflake. 

This card is #699 in the Link up. My other cards that I entered is #127, #339, #467, and #612 .

Thanks for stopping by. I will have another card share tomorrow. Hope you can make it back.

Coffee Tiles Card

 Hello crafter's, Today I have another coffee card to share with you. I created this card by using a product from STAMPlorations   called Coffee Tiles-Ephemera.

 

 STAMPlorations had sent me this coffee image in an order and I had to make a card with it. 

Card base is white, Next layer is Chocolate Chip cardstock. Decided to do something a little different for the paper. So I just cut two side panels at a diagonal so that It would show a strip of the cardstock.

 I had received the paper in some happy mail and I really like it. It has a shine to it and has a retro feel.  The stitched die cut is from Stampin Up and the sentiment is from Trinity Stamps called Hello Sweet Friend.

I have entered this card into the Link Up over at the Fall/Winter Coffee Lover's Blog Hop. This card is entry #612. My other entries are #127, #339 and #467.

Have you joined in the fun and made a project? If not there is still time.

PERK UP, It's your Birthday!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have another card share for you.I created this card for my sister Debbie. As soon as I seen this Image I thought of her. With the curler for the bangs, drinking her coffee and her kitchen is done in teal. So this was the perfect birthday card for her.

 

 This fun image is from Dearie Dolls digi Stamps. Colored with alcohol markers. Can't remember where I got the Perk Up sentiment. Not for sure if it is one that I purchased or if it was offered as a freebie. If anyone recognizes it please let me know.

The other sentiment is from a little used set from e-bay. A surprise from my husband. The little teal dots are from scrapes from cutting out dies. I thought they may look cute.

 

This card will be my third entry into the Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop.   

I have been enjoying lots of coffee while hoping along and seeing all of the projects. There are some talented paper crafter's.

This card is #467 in the Link Up. My other entry's are #127 and #339   .

Latte Love Thank You Card

Hello Crafter's I'm back today with another coffee themed project. I have been having so much fun hoping along on the Fall and Winter Coffee Lover's Blog Hop and Linky Party. The Inspiration is just incredible. I couldn't help myself, I just had to make another one.

 

 Love that Coffee Cup, It's from a stamp set called Latte Love from STAMPlorations. 

Kept it simple by stamping the image on Crumb Cake cardstock from Stampin Up. The base of the card is also in Crumb Cake.

The coffee bean top layer was done in Chocolate Chip cardstock from S.U and cut on my Cricut. The sentiment is from a set called Pocket Silhouettes from Stampin Up and stamped on a small stitched banner die. 

I am always needing thank you cards and I think this coffee themed one will be perfect to send out to someone.

 If you are interest in the Latte Love stamp set. Here is a link-

Got Up... Got Coffee Note Holder

 Hello Crafter's, It's the 12th of November. It's a day that I have been looking forward to. It's the first day of the 2021 Fall/Winter Coffee Lover's Blog Hop. EKK!!! So exciting! 

I always have so much fun during this hop and of course I had to make a coffee project.

Not very often but every now and then, I like to draw, usually while watching tv. A while back I drew this Image and thought it was cute enough to color and create a project with it. 

So here is my coffee themed project

For my project I decided to make a note pad holder so that I could enjoy it in my craft room.

I colored my owl and branch image in alcohol markers. I made up the sentiment and printed it out in Cricut Design Space. 

I named my owl, Owlene. I couldn't help singing Dolly Parton's song Jolene and changing the name to Owlene. Ha!

Owlene still looks a little sleepy but she's got Jesus and coffee in her purple cup, so she's all good and has everything she needs to start the day.  

The brown cardstock is Close to Cocoa from Stampin Up and I embossed it with a woodgrain embossing folder. The patterned paper is from a 12x12 paper pad I have. I made some speckles around the image from a stamp set called Itty Bitty Backgrounds from S.U. the ink used was Bashful Blue. I also added some jute twine. 

Hope you enjoyed seeing my coffee project and hope you get a chance to create a coffee project for the link up. 

My Coffee project is #127 on the Linky

Mom's Birthday Card

   Hello and welcome to my blog. Glad you could stop by. My Mom's birthday will be in a few days. She's all exciting, counting down the days. So for today I am sharing the card I made for her.

I decided to make her an easel card. Hadn't made her one in awhile. If you have never made an easel card, they are super simple to make. There is several video's on youtube.

The pretty image on the card is a napkin. I think it's so pretty and I thought the colors looked like fall. I decided to add a frame so that the focus is on the bird. 

The cardstock used is Groovy Guava from Stampin Up. Not sure where I got the shiny cardstock that I used for the frame and behind the sentiment. There was just a little left in my scraps. I think it's from Stampin Up.

The sentiment is from S.U. The set is called Well Scripted. The satin ribbon was white but I colored it with a alcohol marker so that it would match the creamy cardstock. I also colored the gem with another alcohol marker to match. Love being able to change the colors to what I need.

I also had a little piece of the napkin left with this sweet little bird on it. There was no way that I was going to throw it away. So I made a little tag. I will be saving this to add to a card later on. 

 

I will be spending a few days with my Mom for her birthday. I'm sure she will like her card. I think she enjoys my cards more than anyone. I feel very blessed to still have her. 

I'm also going to be making some Spinach Tortellini in the crock pot to take some to her. She loves it and hasn't had any for probably a year. My grandson has been asking for me to make it again. It is really good and I love it when the weather gets cold. If you would like to try it, It's on my side bar to the right. Just scroll down and you will see it. 

Well I guess that's going to be it for now. I will be having several post coming up. I think my next one will be on the 12th after I get back from my Mom's. Hope you can make it back.
