Case This Sketch #298

Howdy, howdy!  I've been quite absent this year, largely due to multiple reasons, but I am trying to rectify that today!  I've made a few cards, and since this one fits along with the sketch, I'll send this one to play along...



This is in the hands of the "anniversarites", so need to worry here...  As you can I used a little interpretation, main with flipping the sketch from right to left.  This card has some shimmery metallic ribbon and embossing powder, I really like how it turned out.

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving, and I really hope to see more of your cards!  Thanks for stopping by...

Hugs,

Masculine Birthday Candles and Pup

HOW long has it been?  Well I believe WAY too long since I've been around posting or visiting, life is busy, Spring is under way and my yard and garden need attention, plus we've had a few wonderful visitors from Colorado in a couple of rounds!  We can all relate to busy-ness....but let's get onto the card since I know that's what you popped in for.

Son-in-law #1 (numbered by joining the family) had a Birthday yesterday, and I made this little diddy in a flash since I didn't wanna go empty-handed to a party that I hosted!  We had a joint Birthday party this past weekend to celebrate a couple Birthdays but his first!  It's pretty self-explanatory...


Well onto card #2...  This one's for my Grandson who turns 6 today!!!  Unbelievable!  Such a character and I really wanted a card that matched his personality.  Here it is...



Thanks for your support, I really appreciate your stopping by and supporting me even though I'm not always the most "regular" at posting.  Hope to catch up with all of you soon!

Hugs,
TK

Peeps Offering

Well, here it is, my "peeps offering" to you!  LOL  Actually I take a small bucket of candy to work during holidays to offer others as they come through my office.  This time, I made a cute little tag to help invite others to dive in and enjoy.  This is an NBUS stamp set, and although I don't eat peeps, I have a daughter who has always loved them -- every color, every animal, no matter what -- thus I had to have it!


And a close-up, because those peeps are just too cute...


While I love this tag, it doesn't represent the real reason I love Easter, but I wanna take this opportunity to wish each of you, my friends and readers, a very blessed Easter!  Hope your day is awesome and filled with joy.

Hugs,
TK

Ready for Take Off?

This card was a last minute, last ditch effort to make a card for my boss who's moving on to bigger and better challenges.  A manly card, certainly not my easiest, was something that I just couldn't wrap my head around.... then sometime during the night, this cute image from The Cat's Pajamas came to mind and how I could get it to work!  Shocking, really!  Love when that happens, but honestly not often enough, then it was approved by Hubbs.  Let's get on with it...


I stamped it out, embossed with clear over the black ink, colored with my Zigs, and cut it out with Wonky Stitched Rectangles.  I must admit that I preferred my coloring BEFORE it dried, looks a little "artsy" to me now and even shall I say... blotchy?  Oh well, I'm learning, right?  And to top off the card, here's the inside (printed on my home printer with my own words - yikes)!


I'm going to enter this in over at FMS #329, with a little liberal interpretation!  Can you see the circle (plane)?  The stripe (smoke trail)?

Rats!  I missed it!!! Oh well...

Thanks you, Friends, for stopping by and sharing a moment with me!

Hugs,
TK

Twofer #3!!!

I wanted to jump in really fast to get this posted, as I've wanted to get into this fun challenge but life has gotten in the way WAY too much!  Quick and sweet!.... (I hope)...


I used the same die but in different way (it's actually inside the second card -- oops forgot to photograph), and also the coordinating stamp on the card on the right.  And a closer peek of each, the first to show that brilliant sparkle (maybe), and the second to show the dimension...



I'm loving this challenge, Darnell, even if I didn't stray too far!  Your amazing ability to see something out of something quite different is a skill  I must definitely work on!  So glad I got to participate in this one, and I'll be zipping around to see everyone else's creations as soon as possible!


Hugs to you all, and thanks for stopping by!
