On Your Birthday

Welcome!

Today I have a masculine card, using the green and orange colors.  Now I must admit that my orange doesn't really look orange but I assure you there's orange and a golden orange, in fact I think all the colors are off a bit.  This card will go visiting at Color Hues #51.

A diagonal stitched panel, stitched leaf cuts and a borrowed layout from a recent challenge I missed -- pretty CAS, but I love the detail of these leaves.  This card will go to a co-worker today and works for a masculine card for me!  A close-up of the detail stitching in the leaves ~

Supplies:

   LI - On the Diagonal die

   LF - Stitched Leaves

   PTI - Take 3: Summer (sentiment)

I hope you're having a wonderful week and looking forward to the weekend.  Fall has definitely arrived here, with no slide -- just a literal jump!  Thank you for the visit.

Hugs,

TK

 

Poinsettia Cut-Out

 Hello!

I've been a bit absent, but still popping in when I can.  It's fun to see all your pretties.  But today, I have a quick post, so I can get this into a challenge (or two) before it's too late (if I'm not already)!

A quick and easy card but inspired by Fusion - Kitchen (actually the layout - or at least I hope you see it!), Christmas Kickstart #67 - Poinsettias & Posies (poinsettia), and Peace On Earth #26 (gorgeous reds, light pinks and a touch of shine).

  

Supplies:

   SSS - Simple Poinsettia cut-out

   SB - GOM 10.22 (sentiment)

   Nuvo drops (not very good at these, someone needs to help!)

That's it for me today, thanks for the visit and sweet messages.

Hugs,

TK

Happy Hour?

Hello, we meet again!

I hope all is going well in your part of the world - recovery from hurricanes, fires, droughts, etc. -- I think we've all seen enough recently, but my heart goes out to all who are in recovery mode! 

Today I've got a card for you, actually for someone who'll celebrate her Birthday soon.  This is a new stamp set to me, so it'll be sent over to NBUS #43.  I've always like those "cheers" type of cards and stamp sets but have never had one.  However I decided on one without the champagne flutes but with a lot more options.  Here's my entry ~

I'm not going to tell any secrets, but a little birdie told me that the recipient of this one likes to CELEBRATE!

Stamped randomly, Copic-colored, cut down in size just a bit and then the sentiment cut out of the panel so I could pop it up.  (Hubbs had to look closely to figure out how I got my "drinks" all lined up to make a second panel and cut it out and have things line up *wink)

Supplies:

   Newton's Nook - Cocktail Mixer
   PinkFresh - Diagonal Stitched Rectangle

   Catherine Pooler - Scallops & Dots

Cheers to you if you've got a celebration coming up -- have a great week!

Hugs,

TK

Bepaws We Care

 Hello!

I'm here today with a quick post, a card made for a co-worker who lost his dog.  Such a sad day, and I can relate too much.

A pretty CAS card, but the lack of any dog on the front explains how empty you can feel when you lose a part of the family!  While I'm not the greatest at creating scene, but again I think it gets the thought across.    This was made pretty quickly after overtime, colored with Copics, and is self-explanatory.

Supplies:

   MFT - You Make My Tail Wag, Lucky Dog

   PF - Diagonal Stitched Rectangle dies

Well that's it for me today, I hope you've had a great weekend and many blessings to come this week!

Hugs,

TK

Hot Java Mama

 Hi again!

Glad you could stop by and visit, hope you enjoy your time and grab some rest too!

Today I have a card for a couple of challenges, I used the colors from Color Throwndown #712 (blue, orange, cream and kraft) plus the theme at Inspired By...#205 (National Coffee Day).

I've used this little lady before, but the sentiment in the corner is NBUS, so I guess we'll head in that direction to join NBUS #43, as well!  This image always makes me smile, I can just relate so much!  

  

Supplies:

   AI - Cathy Caffeine

   TE - Some Like It Hot (sentiment)

  

 Well that's it for me to day!  Thank you for stopping by!

Hugs,

TK
