Good morning! A beautiful (oh, its still dark here), morning. Well, It's is going to be a nice day. We still have our Gracie girl (doggie), and she is eating so its as good as can be expected.

These cards are with stamps from the Altenew Perfectly Perfect set. Love this set. When I got them I was surprised the flowers were so small, but once I started stamping and arranging them, they are Perfectly perfect!!

 

 

 

Thanks for looking today!

August is speeding by!! It is still hot here too.  The weather and time covered, I  will share more cards today. The 'HI' card is by Concord & 9th. I did these some time ago and thought they were on my blog. Since they are 'shaker' cards, I feel I must share!! I left the insides blank so you could choose the verse inside.

I could make these all day long. So fun! This time Used a die from 'wish' for the next three cards. This red one is my Christmas themed one, roses in December. I has a nice gold glitter paper in the background.

I think the baby blue one is my favorite!

One more card using an old Heartfelt Creations wooden stamp. Just an easy technique. I inked the stamp with versafine and randomly added watercolor.

 

Thanks for looking!

Tuesday August 21st.

August has been busy and hot!! We had company for eleven days, which was a treat! Dawn came and we did cards, sorted stuff, and ate the whole time!! Al retired last week! That is about two years to late, but now the adjustment for both of us begins. We are still on 'Gracie' watch! Our sweet sweet girl is in kidney failure. We have had some really bad days with her, and just when you think it is over, she rallies for a couple days! Today is a (barely) rally day.  
This time I will share some cards that I made last month. The dome is the same  Spellbinders die I used in the booklet cards. I used one die cut and the matching Spellbinder Happy Birthday/balloon circle set in the center.

 
                        

These make such easy and quick cards!

I want to add one more card made with the Spellbinder dome die. This is my birthday card that Emily made for me. Check out the doggies!

Don't you love it?!!

Thanks for looking,

Very last day of July!

Very last day of July. I am not sure what that is supposed to mean, but just go with it! Here are some miscellaneous cards to share. The first one is the My Favorite Things Retro die. I made a shaker card out of it, (wish there were more sprinkles!) anyway it makes a nice 'Friend' card for a guy or a girl.

 

Next card is my friend Emilys. Think this is soo cute. The elephant dies came from Ali Express. Not sure where she got the palm trees, but love how she puts things together!

 

Thanks for looking!
