Some Forgotten Cards

Two posts in one day is unusual for me, but this week flew by and I neglected to post some cards I made so I am catching up.

Yesterday, my oldest daughter co-hosted a wedding shower for one of her best friends. It was a kitchen shower and she had found THIS fun card on Pinterest for me to case. Here is our version:



At the scrapbook retreat I went to last weekend I made this fun card casing THIS card by addINKtive designs:



She used SU! digital punches - I so want to get them! I just used Word playing around with the shapes. I also used the free word bubbles available at Squigglefly HERE.


I made this card for the MMTPT Teapot Tuesday Challenge on Splitcoast Stampers. It is going to my friend Carol's Mother. I made it with an image by Lynne Stansbery called I miss you and is available at Squigglefly.



Lastly, I made this card a few weeks ago but forgot to post it. It was my back up Valentines Day card for Kenny, but I gave it to a friend since I didn't use it. It is made with a new image by Carmen Gamble called 58 Impala. I had an Impala in 1989 and loved it, but this version here was the very first one.



Thanks for visiting!

Hugz!

    Wonderful cards, Nancy. What a cool impala! I love your card for Carol's mom..it is just precious. The apron card is super with all the utensils. I guess the digital punch was the stitching on your card. Super!

    Oh, I love all of these! Each one is so different but so cool. (Have you seen the new die set from MFT Stamps called Smartphone? Your 2nd card reminds me of that and it has word bubbles and a coordinating stamp set too. Just call me an enabler LOL).

    Okay, Nancy, this post requires four WOW's WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW! I love them all. The apron card is so adorable and just perfect for a shower card, The phone card cute! And the image by Lynn, just fabulous as always and you put it together so nicely. The last card brings back memories for me...we lost count how many Chev's we had through the years.

    Four really nice cards. I have to be honest and say I am partial to the third one. Lynne Stansbery is my favorite artist over there.

    This is a fabulous selection of cards Nancy, they are all gorgeous but I do especially Iove the last one - as you probably know, I'm rather partial to male cards.

    What a great variety of cards! I love them all. I especially think the flags and that way too perfect and cute stop light are the best embellishments I've ever seen on a card! The pink and black texting card is really cute too.

    Love the cards, Nancy! Don't you hate it when you give a card away and realize you forgot to take a photo of it? Glad you took pictures before sending. They're all nice, but the kitchen shower card is awesome, and I love the Impala card as well with its lights and flags..really super cute!

    How chickie cool all your cards are Nancy. The apron is super cute-I love that you kept with the shower theme. The little kitty face will just melt your heart, pink and black are a dynamic combination, and the car is super classic for a guy. Fantastic work.
    Bear Hugs,

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....

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!

Stamps, Books, Found Relatives, and More Food

 Don't you love getting new stuff?  This is my fun new stuff from  Red Lead Paperworks .   I ordered the fun vintage looking deer stamp and the three Christmas greetings - all were on sale a few weeks ago.  I love getting their packages because they always send some extra little goodies like collage sheets and old tickets plus even their packaging is cute and reusable.  The sheet with the leaves and acorns on the bottom is the other side of the invoice so you can reuse it as well.  I can't wait to play with these fun goodies.  Here is a look at my current reading pile.  I checked Basil's War by Stephen Hunter from the library, my daughter lent me The Paper Palace, and I bought The Host, Going Back to Petrey, and The Lady in Blue from the Thrift Store. I am reading Basil's War and The Lady in Blue at the same time - something I really shouldn't do especially since both books are the kind that switch between stories every chapter.  Th...
