Happy Valentine's Day!




Hi, there!

Happy Valentine's Day!  Only two days away for the special love day!  I got all the Valentine cards out and now it's on to Easter cards.  I have several to share with you today.  I made several of the same design, but with different design paper for the cards seen above.  I used SSS heart die.  The bow die is from The Greetery.  A paper doily behind the heart.  The sentiment is from PPP.  I'm entering these cards over at Love Those Pretty Papers Challenge.







Next up,



I made a sweet scene for this card with two darling cats.  I sent this to a friend who has an orange/white cat and a gray cat.  They are named Miss Kitty and Jake.  The images are from MFT.  The scalloped panel was die cut using a die from The Greetery.  The sentiment is from PPP.  

Ok, friends, I hope you have a wonderful lovely Valentine's Day!  Thanks so much for dropping by, take care!

Hugs!

Happy Valentine's Day!



Hello, Friends!

I wanted to post this Valentine card before sending it out to a friend.  More Lawn Fawn cute mice on this one!  The background was made using a die from Sunny studio.  

I had a very busy weekend to a wedding.  And, the last few days I was away on a craft retreat.  It was just here in town, but a fun time getting together with friends!  I packed up all my craft supplies and made a pot of chili before leaving for the weekend to our son's.  It was a good break to stop at his house Friday night.  We then travelled two more hours to southern Ohio to the wedding.  We were happy to see that the weather cooperated.  I feel like I'm behind in things, but I'll get caught up here soon.  We got to the store today for more bad weather is on the way.  It may start out as ice and then turn to snow.  I'm hoping that the weatherman is right is saying only 1-3 inches of snow.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed!




Coco thought she could go to the craft retreat with me!



Ok, friends.  That's all for now.  Thanks so much for dropping by, take care!

Hugs!

Happy Birthday!

Hello Friends!

I'd like to share with you a card that I made for a friend's birthday!  I used Altenew stamp, die, and stencil to make this card.  I used distress inks for the flowers and leaves.  The stencil was so easy to use to color the pretty flower image!  The sentiment was made using stamps and dies from Honey Bee.  Gems to finish the card.

I believe a lot of the country is anticipating a winter storm for this weekend.  We are to get at least 6 inches of snow.  It may be even more than that by the time it ends.  The temps are very cold.  Right now it is 7 degrees.  My one sis had the right idea of going to Florida for the winter.  

Anyways, if you are in the path of the winter storm, please keep warm and safe!  

Thanks so much for dropping by today, take care!

Hugs!

Happy Valentine's Day!



Hi, Friends!

It's time to start Valentine cards!  My first Valentine was made using the adorable mice set from Lawn Fawn.  Such cute images that I colored with copics.  The postage die is from Newton's Nook.  It was very easy to put together!  I'm entering this card over at Word Art Wednesday.




I'm working on Valentines and birthday cards for February.  It's great to work inside when it's windy and snowing outside.  We did manage to get to out and ran errands before most of the snow began.  We are due to get 2-4 inches.  

I have a few more crochet projects to share that have kept me busy, too.

Ok, my friends, that's all for now.  I hope you are having a great day!  Thanks so much for taking the time to drop by today, take care!
