To Infinity & Beyond!

Sometimes just the tiniest stamp invokes a feeling and then you just GOTTA use it.  That's what happened here, Folks!  This stamp is one of those...  Now I must confess that it didn't stamp really clear, so for that I apologize but I just had to use it!  I couldn't resist!  Truly!

This was a secondary card for Hubbs on Valentine's Day, well because I HAD to!  Can you see it?  No?  Here's a close-up...

Hmmm, still not the clearest but it says "I love you, To Infinity & Beyond".  Ok I apologize... not the clearest "tiny" stamp in a less than stellar photo but an adorable saying to say the least.  And why not post because it fits nicely into the Addicted to CAS #153 Grid challenge.

Supplies:

   Impression Obsession - Dotted Argyle BG stamp

   SSS - Big Word Pop: scallop die

Thank you for stopping by, sharing your day and sharing your love!  Hope your day is fantastic, and the snow has not gotten the best of you!  Hoping to make it around to visit all of you this weekend!

Hugs,

Happiest Birthday, Anita!

This one's for Anita -- she's a beautiful person with an uplifting heart, and inspires me all the time; a great card maker, who spurs us on to have fun and make beautiful things!  Who could want more from a bloggy friend!?!  My wish is for a perfect day filled with loved ones and special memories to be made.  Here's her card that's hopefully there (or she just gets a peek!)...

And a close-up!

An old rubber stamp called Bear with Flowers by Anita's (ironically), a different sentiment stamp, and the panel cut using MFT Wonky Stitched Rectangle, then of course Zig-ified, although I had trouble coloring him brown and it being too dark!  Speaking of.... that "old" stamp should allow me to enter over at TO #129 - Retro!

Again, best wishes to Anita, and thanks for being such a sweet, inspiring soul!

Hugs,

Triple Play!

If you're Hubbs, look away now!!!

(Sorry, I had to get that in...)

Howdy!  Jumping in here, trying to get a card off in time to play at three challenges today!  I'm actually going to enter a single card in 3 challenges (a first for me, I believe)!  

Rats!  I just noticed a crease on the card front!  My card is pretty self-explanatory 

so here's a close-up...

These will be entered at:

     Simon Says Wednesday - Have a Heart (SS Roses for You), featuring MFT Wonky Stitched Rectangle dies

     My Favorite Things - Sketch #421

     Color Throwdown #527

        

Thanks for stopping by, Friends!  I'll be around soon as things are quieting down a bit around here, at least currently   :o)

Woohoo! Twofer Challenge #12 - Birds

Well I'm whizzing in at the last minute, so happy that I finally get to participate again in Darnell's grand Twofer Challenge!  It's so fun to make cards, and yet I'm so rusty-dusty from the lack of it in the past year!  At least I made it to the fun this challenge!

My first card is a sweet Bird wishing someone a Happy Birthday, while peeking through a cute little window.  The bird comes from Technique Tuesday, and is the star of both cards.  Here she is! 

My second card is for a sweet friend, and here it is!

While both cards are somewhat easy, I kinda rather like the star of the show!  These birds just crack me up, what can I say!?!?  I'm happy that I could make it to another one of Darnell's fun challenges, and proud that I actually will get this posted in time!  Must run...

Hugs to all who stopped by,

Happy Anniversary - TO #126

Time Out has a new challenge "Loving" -- and what's more "loving" than an Anniversary card?  Well maybe quite a bit but the card is what I have and can enter!  So here's my card, enjoy!

I used a sweet die from Concord & 9th "Layers of Love", which also complements the challenge, does it not?!  I love this die!!!  And a close-up...

I ink blended, then die cut the top panel and popped it up, to showcase all those glorious leaf details.  I also added one miniature little pearl on some of the dot groups (does that make sense?).  I know you can barely see them, but they actually look whiter than the negatives, but really show IRL.  

Really hoping to spend more time this weekend just relaxing in my "mom cave" and making a few cards and also pop in to visit others as well.  Thanks for stopping by, and have a GREAT weekend!

Hugs,

TK
