Friday Feb 20th

 Good morning! Am anxious to share these cards with you. They were so easy to make and just lovely. Okay, let's get started. Waffle flower stamps, stencils and dies.

 These cards show the background stencil and dies. Both cards started with the dashed lattice texture die. It is a background die. Sort of looks like a cross-hatch. There are 3 stencils, on the left is the 'flowery' stencil placed over the texture die. The card on the right features the heart/dot stencil. Its awesome as the heart, flower designs fit perfectly inbetween the die.

The Rose Bouquet die & layered stencil set is super versatile. You could (Just couldn't, 'cause it is so pretty), cut it in half and use on top and bottom or sides... Not to mention MORE color combos!!

This is the next collection of Waffle Flower stamp designs. Stay in touch. 

Thanks for looking this morning!

It's 5:30AM FYI:

 Having a hard taking the time to blog today, this month and just don't want to take the time to do it. But yes, I want to share some pretty cards. So, lets make this short and sweet. 

                     The background hearts are an older cover die, and the cute little puppy 'mail' die was a gift. Could be Honeybee stamps? Comes with the kitty die too. 

The Gnomes are Honeybee stamps. Wait for it, there are more!

Pretty Pink Posh. So so easy!!

 Also PPPosh dies

Got to have those Shaker cards!!

Thanks for looking!

 Good morning, just a couple cards to share. These are cards from the Spellbinders advent calendar 2025. I still haven't finished, but I'm getting there slowly! Starting with the background embossing folder strip #6. Hard to see, looks like bubbles..sort of.

                           The fish bowl # 15. I tried bubbles on the scalloped edges and it looked awful, so I just quit. Ugh.

                    Yes, I like this better. The #14 worm. So cute

Sun stencil #22

completely different for the sun stencil.

Last one is the Happy day banners #8. Candles are from a Paper trey ink birthday cake. Perfect.

Thanks for looking!

 These cards are one of my favorites. Perfect for any of the charities. I love when I can make several of one design & this was perfect. Yet everyone is slightly different. This is a Sizzix die from Eileen Hull. It has an arched companion die, but I just used the window. 

Never even made it to the 'colorful' windows! After I put everything away, I found different images for the backgrounds! 

Thanks for looking!!

 As always, I wonder where the time has gone this month. Just needed to get in the "mood" to blog! Did make a bunch of cards this month. Think it is time to share!! So beautiful, has 18 blooms. It was nearly gone last year. Al has taken care of it, and it has thrived. 19 blooms today.

Time for the card share! 

I tried to watercolor. Maybe passable??

The gold shows up better on the card than the photo. 

Had about 30-40 cut out hearts for whatever (?) reason over the years, and I am REALLY using them!

 These are from Honeybee stamps, 2024. Have had them awhile and never used it. Just a 'vintage' looking gal, perfect for valentines. 

                                One more to share! This is a bunch of banner cards. Doing Cards for Soldiers & thought how handy these sayings are. Oh, bad grammer! These are from Concord & 9th. I am not sure how long ago. 

Last one is really pretty.. The banner is a Spellbinder die. It is foiled. Not sure how many words were with this, as I found it already cut! 

                                      Thanks for looking!
