Using My Snippets

Hello, Friends!

I know it's been awhile, actually I haven't been very present this year -- hopefully soon!

Update... my retirement got put on hold!  Yep, a big division happened at work and a lot is happening, and I was asked to stay.  I'm sure missing my resignation already!  It has got to be one of the shortest retirements EVER since I didn't even get a day - lol.  Have no fear though, it is somewhat temporary, I believe.  Anywho,...

Meanwhile, I've been under the weather for a few days but managed to stay upright long enough for a couple cards.  This one was made with a few leftovers I had from my Easter cards, so it'll be an addition to the stash for next year ~

 

I believe it was sweet Loll who shared her love of pink and orange -- I TOTALLY agree!  And while I don't actually know what kind of flower this is... I'll be sending this to Double D - Springtime Flowers.

Supplies:

   PB - Noted e/f, Curvature die, Ripple die, Garden Trio stamp/die

   SSS - Alleluia die

That's it for me!  Have a great day -- may your weather be sunny and bright, but not too hot!

Hugs,

TK

Alleluia!

Happy Easter, Everyone!

I will leave you with two final Easter cards this year.  These will be hand-delivered today, so I think we're in the clear!

 

The first is in corals and a sagey green, using NBUS products and flowers, so I guess the first will be heading to NBUS #73, Penny Black Saturday - Easter.  Dry embossing, die cutting, copic coloring -- this one checks off all my boxes, and oh that coral color!

My second card is similar, only changing up the colors, so this one will head to The Flower Challenge #101 - Spring colors.

  

Supplies:

   Alt. - Organic Linen e/f

   PB - Curvature frame (NBUS), Garden Trio stamp/die (NBUS)

   SSS - Alleluia die

With that, I leave you my greatest wishes that everyone would have a very Happy and Blessed Easter!

He is Risen!

Hugs,

TK

 

Birthdays Abound!

 Hello, and welcome to my little world!

It has been a rough,  but event-filled week.  I was able to make a couple cards quickly (wish I had more time, but more on that in a bit)!  We're celebrating two Birthdays today, celebrating yesterday but actually one was Wednesday and the other was yesterday.

Here are my cards ~

My grandson turned 13 yesterday!  Ack -- how does that even happen???  I'm told he still loves my "cute" cards, that he even saves them -- how sweet is that?!  I told him that I'll try to be more age-appropriate from here on out... maybe?  Stamped, copic-colored, cloud popped up, panel layered over washi -- pretty basic in the making.

And talk about age appropriate!  NOT!  This card was for my son-in-law.  He's awesome and always has goals, so I'll pretend that it's appropriate.  Stamped, copic-colored, then the moon was masked and the sky ink-blended in.  A couple of white pen highlights on the fox - EZ PZ.

We wish both our very best!

Supplies:

   Card #1 - ME Ella & Friends, washi

   Card #2 - CCC A Fox's Life; MFT Wonky Rectangles; LF Upon a Star; Splb Wonky Squares

As for me and more time?  Yep, I put in my two weeks notice!  

Hugs,

TK

Joyous Easter

 Hello and Good Day!

So I'm WAY behind on my Easter cards but I had a bit of time today, so Color Hues #107 - Teal and Orange came to the rescue!  One of these will also go to NBUS #73, due to a new stamp and frame die.

 Here are my cards ~

My first card is a bit more feminine.

A new PB Blooms colored with Copics and die cut, perched on a new PB Ripple die cut frame, layered over the PB Noted e/f.  My sentiment?  Well shame on me but I don't have a single PB Easter sentiment - oy!  This sentiment comes from an antique Paper Smooches Easter Blessings set, heat embossed in white and cut down so I didn't cover up too much frame or background.

This card is my masculine version.  I used the same products, colored the bloom the same; however, I used the largest frame in a matching color and stacked up a couple layers of the white center.

I mail only a few cards, so I lucked out on that as most are hand delivered, but these will be in the mail shortly.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!  Me?  Mine is stacked with events (in addition to work), but I'm hoping to get a few more cards done.

 

Hugs,

TK
