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!

Happy New Year!

Hi, Friends!

Happy New Year!  I'm wishing for you a blessed happy healthy new year!

I couldn't resist purchasing the new Spellbinder's Good Fortune Horse to send out a few cards to friends and family!  I looked at some awesome inspiration over at Spellbinders from Michelle Short and another person(sorry not sure who made the black background card). The embossed background was made using an EF from Simon Says and the arch die was made using a die from Pink Fresh Studio. Anyways, I had a lot of fun making the cards!  I'm entering the first card over at Lunar New Year Challenge.

Second card...

Edit:

I decided to redo part of the above card.  It looks much better!

I almost didn't post this card due to the gold ink spray that went crazy.  Ah, mishaps in crafting.  So, I tried to make it seem less worse by adding more gold gems.  Or, I guess I could say that they are actually fireworks going off behind the horse?!  Anyways, things happen, right?

Ok, friends, that's all for now.  Take care and have a wonderful rest of the week!  Thanks so much for dropping by today!

Hugs!
