Joy and Cheer

 Hello and welcome!

Here's a card that I've been working on for a couple days

and finally finished:

I love all the die cuts and how this came out.

But wow, that was a lot of die cutting! LOL!

The reason it took me so long to make this?

I made four of them!

Did I mention it was a lot of die cutting? 😉

Be Merry

 Hello and happy Sunday to you!

I'm popping in with a Christmas card

I'd like to share with you:

This is a mix of old and new items. The new items are

the Nordic bird and Be Merry dies from Poppy Stamps.

Also, the patterned paper from Lawn Fawn is new.

I die cut the bird and twig pieces from white card stock

and blended all the colors with various inks. For some

sparkle, I added glitter drops to the berries.

Here's the finished inside:

Thank you for visiting. I appreciate you stopping by.

Have a great day!

Coastal Chic Birthday Wishes

 Hello and welcome!

It's been a minute since I've been here.

Mr. Mojo was apparently on vacation for over a week,

but he's back and so here is a card I created over

the weekend:

I'm digging this color combination of red, pink and craft!

Here is the finished inside:

Not too blingy. I've added some glitter drops to the

berries and the centers of the flowers for

a bit of sparkle. 😊

That's all for now. Thanks for visiting, and I

hope you have a great rest of your day!

Whaley big birthday wishes

Hello and welcome friends!

You know when you see a sketch and

you get some crazy idea of how to

interpret it onto a card? Yeah, that's

what happened with this one:

I used the current sketch at Freshly Made Sketches, but I rotated

it so that the vertical lines were horizontal. See? It's ocean waves now!

I went full out artsy-fartsy with this, by tearing up different shades

of turquoise cardstock, (So therapeutic!), so that this wee orca had

something to swim in. Bonus: I used up some paper snippets. 😊

Here's the inside:

This was a cool sketch that really made

 me think outside my comfort zone. (Thank you!)

Thanks for stopping by. I hope that you have a 

great rest of your day!

Happy Holidays poinsettia

 Hello and good Monday to you all!

I'm popping in with a card I'd like to share:

I made a bunch of these poinsettias last December and had

this one left to use, so, here it is! LOL!

Here's the finished inside:

This post is short and sweet, as one of the challenges I want

to add this to is about to end. 😄

Thank you for visiting. Have a wonderful day!

Flying by to say...

 Hello and Happy Father's Day to all!

I'm just popping in with a card

I'd like to share with you:

I recently purchased this fairy set and I'm having fun

coloring these wee cuties up and making some

cards with them.

Here is the inside:

I stamp and colored up a bunch of these images, so now

I'm working on getting them on cards. 😊

Cactus birthday wishes

 Hi there and welcome!

I'm back with another card that

I made this week:

I combined a couple challenges for this card, and I love

how it came out! Shades of coral and teal paired 

with this fun sketch!

A simple sentiment finishes the inside:

Well, back to work. My birthday card stash is, as always,

seriously depleted. Got to make some more! LOL!

Thanks for visiting. Enjoy your day!

Irish you a Hoppy Birthday

 Hello and welcome!

Anybody else dragging from losing an hour of sleep? 😴

It probably didn't help that I stayed up late reading a book. LOL!

Anyway, I'm here to share a card I made for 

a few challenges.

Gotta love a beer themed punny sentiment!

Here's the inside:

I have a friend whose birthday is March 17th, so I challenge

myself to send her a card that gives a nod to that holiday.

That's it for now. Have a great day and thanks for visiting!

I moose wish you a Happy Birthday!

 Hello crafty friends and welcome!

I'm back with a cute card that features

this adorable moose:

Squeeee! Just look at how cute he is!!!

He's colored with Spectrum Noir markers, and I used cardstock and some

green/blue papers from an older paper collection to die cut the

grass and one of the trees.

A simple sentiment on the inside finishes my card.

Thank you for stopping by and visiting! I hope you have

a great rest of your day.
