A Happy Little Thank-you Card


Squigglefly's New Challenge (SFC2713) is all about Thank-you cards. We all need more of those! This one is going to a special friend who never fails to encourage me in my artistic endeavors - Holly. Holly is our fearless leader at Squigglefly. She is sweet, sweet, sweet and both design teams have gotten together to make Thank-you cards to send to her! Thanks for all you do Holly!

I used a new Squigglefly image by Diana Garrison called You Have My Heart. I was in a die cut/punch mood as you can tell. I used Tim Holtz dies, SU! Embosslet Heart and Butterfly dies, a Sizzix Corner die, and a MS branch punch.

We would love to see your Thank-you Card Creations and here about who you want to thank, so come play cards with us! The prize is always wonderful at Squigglefly, but you need to use one of the zillions of Squigglefly images, backgrouds, and sentiments to be eligible (there are plenty of free ones at the store).

Hugz!

    I always think of what I'm going to say before I hit the comment button and rarely read what the others say until after I've posted. That being said.....Tammy pretty much said exactly what I was going to say. :-) Beautiful color combo too.

Some Penguins

Today kicks off the newest Pattie's Creations Challenge which is Tags . Just Tags. No cards with Tags on or in them - just tags. I love to make just tags so this one was right up my alley. I used the super cute Penguin image from Pattie's Creations, but I couldn't stop at just one so I made a little penguin family. My tag is made from an old cardboard box top which I peeled down, painted, distressed a bit, and then added some snow medium. My bow is actually a new bow designed by Pamela Lehto (available at Squigglefly tomorrow). Please join us in the Pattie's Creations Tag Challenge - there are lovely DT tags for inspiration and Pattie gives away wonderful prizes! Hugz!

Language Plays, Billiard Balls, and Some "Interesting" Wine

 I always look forward to the new **Art*Journal*Journey* Theme each month. The May theme was chosen by Elle and she chose Language as the theme. So many cool things you can do with that theme.  This weekend I chose to do the Language(s) of God in my Journaling Bible.  When I started, I was going to do Fasting as a way of speaking to God but after listening to a Sermon on Fasting, I realized that was more complicated and I would have to study it more first. So I switched gears midstream and just did some of ways that God speaks to us and vice versa.  There are many more, but I put the ones I could think of quickly here.   The papers are from an old hymnal and Close to My Heart (CTMH).  The gnome is CTMH as well.  Now I have played with all the gnomes in the set,and I totally love them. While looking for the hymnal paper, I ran across an old song book that I was saving.  It was damaged so I knew it would have to be recycled into something....

Two Cards and Two Drinks

Today's post includes two cards and two drinks, all of which have been on my kitchen counter. Feelng a bit lost in Wonderland lately - too much work at work and home.  Thought this card would be appropriate to give myself.   The base layer is teabag glued to some heavyweight white card stock.  I used gesso to add a few scraps of Alice paper from Stamperia (too hard to throw away any of it!), and then I added a thin layer of white gesso and some water colors.  A run though the Big Shot with an embossing folder and some splatters of tea and paint added more interest.  Making this base was a bit like a trip to Wonderland as it sort of made itself over a few days - lol. I fussy cut the cat and sentiment out of the Alice papers and stapled on a border to complete the look.  Isn't this cat the cutest? Over at DRS Designs, I posted this card made from these stamps: Happy Shark Killer Birthday Fishing Square The base on the card is a watercolor wash and the ta...
