It's a mile marker challenge at Freshly Made Sketches!

 Hello and welcome, crafty friends!

I'm joining the festivities at

Freshly Made Sketches for their 700th sketch challenge!

That's quite the mile marker, congrats!!

Here's what I came up with:

Does that heart sticker match exactly with the background colors?

Nope. Am I stressing out about it? Also nope. LOL!

This is such a versatile sketch. I'm planning on making another

or 6 more cards using it. 😊

ETA: Well, the blog said that it was open until 3 PM, but the linky already

closed. Got to remember not to enter at the last minute, even though

it's only 2 pm. Oh well. Congrats anyway! 😏

Here's to many more FMS sketches! 🥂

Literal Birthday

 Hello friends and welcome!

Here's a cute card I'd like to share with you:

I bought this adorable stamp set in September last year around it's

release date, and I've only just opened the packaging.

(I'm really trying to make an effort to whittle down

my NBUS pile!)

I love the book theme this stamp set has, and it also

has some great sentiments. Here's the inside:

There's a few challenges I'd like to enter this at. First,

I've used the current sketch at Freshly Made Sketches #668.

Next, Seize the Birthday #297 prompts us to use something

new. Also, I'm entering this at NBUS #70.

Thank you for visiting. Have a great rest of your day!

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS #255 H is for Halloween

 

Hello and welcome snarky friends!

It's been a minute since I've posted anything.

To rectify that, here's my slightly late post for

the new challenge at the

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS: HALLOWEEN!

As is my way, I mixed some old and new items

to create this card. I just love this cauldron die!

Another sentiment finishes the inside.

Since I had everything out, I created another card.

As I said earlier, I've been remiss in sharing cards here.

I'm making them, but just wasn't blogging about them.

Also, we just survived hurricane Helene. We live

in western North Carolina. Though we

luckily didn't get washed out from flood waters or mudslides,

we lost power for 7 days. 11 of 22 Leyland cypress trees

that lined our driveway and ran to the back of our

property came down. In our neighbor's yard.

We've been busy cutting the trees down and hauling

everything away. Ever since Helene, we've had spotty

internet connection. It's taken until today

for me to be able to post anything.

Things are getting better here, but

there's still so much needed for those

who've lost everything in the mountains.

And now, hurricane Milton gave a double

blow to Florida. It's heartbreaking.

Well, enough of me being 'Debbie Downer'.

I hope that you'll play along in our Halloween challenge

this month at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers.

If you need some inspiration, simply visit the blogs of

my sisters to see their amazing projects!

Thanks for stopping by. I hope that you have a great day!
