You will never regret being kind

Hey y'all! Happy Wednesday!
Hope all is well?!...

Just a short and sweet post for me today.

Another 'just for fun' card and a real simple one too! A little patterned paper and one stamp...and ta-da...


Don't you just love that sentiment?!...When I saw Lil Inker Designs latest release, I couldn't resist those new sentiment stamps. Not only I love what they say but they sure make for a quick and easy card when needed. ;)

Well, that's all for me today. I'm off to work on some DT stuff and then some commenting. :)

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Enjoy your day and see you soon!

Special

Hey y'all! Happy Monday!
Hope your week is starting off right?!...

Yesterday my kids and I were all crafting together, with no arguing over this and that! lol I must say it was quite nice. ;)

So today I'm sharing a card that I made while they were making their own cards/drawings/etc. No challenges or anything. Just for fun and using up those new and barely used sets. ;)


Of course I kept things simple! lol I went with using colored pencils again, which I think I'm starting to get the hang of them?!...Not really sure but I have been enjoying coloring and how my image(s) looks after. :)
I wasn't quite sure of a sentiment piece, but then I started to dig in my embellishment stash and came across a wood veneer piece. Thought it added a sweet touch to it...I also added some clear little dew drops but I think you only can barely see one of them? However, there are three of them.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Let's roll

Hey y'all! Happy Sunday!
Hope you're enjoying your day?!...

I have just a quick and sweet post today.

Another 'just for fun' card...and yep. I'm still using up all the new stuff I have, as well as older sets that have yet to see any love or barely any love at all. Though today's card is featuring a new set. ;)


Seriously, aren't those little sushi rolls cuuute?!...One of those 'I just couldn't resist' adding them to my collection.


I went with using colored pencils again. Which I'm finding with the smaller images, I seem to lean towards using them more than markers. (Probably because I can stay in the lines better with colored pencils than with markers. lol) Once having done my coloring, I simply added a sentiment, used a square die with my finished panel and then added it to my kraft base. Easy peasy, right?!...

Well, I'm off to do some commenting...

Turnip the Beet Peas

Hey y'all! Happy...Thursday! (I so just had to look up what day it was! lol)
Hope all is well?!...

Always when my kids are out of school I have no sense of time, let alone what day it is. lol Between keeping up with the house, them, crafting, and the million other things...I'm just trying to get through the day. ;)

Anyhow, I'm swinging in to share a card I made for the current CASology challenge.


Talk about a cue card!! lol Loud?!...This one had me stumped. Though, after sitting for a bit and going through stamp set after stamp set. I came across an older set that just hadn't seen much love, if any at all. So, I put it to use. :) 


A little bit of a silly card, yeah?!...My one boy got a kick out of it and actually wanted it, so to him it'll go. ;)
I kept things nice and simple. Just stamped on my images, did some coloring, and then added my sentiment pieces. Easy peasy, right?!...Oh, and I should say my 'loud' part comes in with using some loud colors, as well as the fun sentiment piece. ;)

Tickled pink we're friends

Hey y'all! Happy Tuesday!
Hope all is well?!...

Well, my kids are officially done with school. Needless to say, they are happy and honestly so am I. I certainly don't miss the rushing to get them and everything else ready in the morning. ;) Annnd since they're done with school, that should give me a little extra crafty time. At least I'm hoping it will. :)

Anyhow, today I'm sharing another 'just for fun' card.


I know, I know. It's a new stamp set. Though I just couldn't resist! lol However, I swear I'm going on another 'no more buying' kick. I still have many sets to use and if I'm being honest, I did buy more then just the one new set you're seeing. Ack!

Well, that's all for me today. I'm off to get (and by get, I mean separate) my kids (lol) and do a little blog visiting.

You had me at Mai-Tai

Hey y'all! Happy Friday!! :)
Hope all is well?!...

*For my AJVD post, please scroll down. 

I'm swinging back in today to share a card I made for the current Inky Paws Challenge.

 

Don't you just love those colors?!...Certainly makes me think of summer! ;) 


As usual, I kept things simple. I did a little yellow background with some distress ink. Then added my 'mai-tai' in the colors from the inspiration photo. Before completely adhering my mai-tai down, I added my sentiment first. Easy peasy, right?!...

Perfectly wonderful...

Hey y'all! Happy Thursday, almost Friday! :)
Hope all is well?!...

Yesterday was my oldest sons birthday, which I let my kids take school off and enjoy his day. We had some cake, cookie cake to be exact (his request). Then he got a bike and a few little goodies as well. Needless to say, he was happy! And riding his bike all day. :)

Anyhow, I am sharing a card today. Which I made for the current May Altenew Inspiration Challenge.




Keeping things simple, I stamped on my background image and then added some green using colored pencils. After I stamped my hummingbird on a piece of cardstock, colored it with pencils and then did a little cutting. Once done, I added my sentiment piece to my card and then added some foam tape on the back of my bird and added it to my card. Easy peasy, right?!...

For you

Hey y'all! Happy Monday!
Hope your week is starting off right?!...

Somewhat a busy week, here. My kids are officially on the last week of school and there's a couple birthday's this week. Which I'm gonna have to make my sons cookie cake tomorrow (his request) and I still need to make a card and wrap his little gifts. And my husband needs to assemble his new bike together...so a lot going on.

Anyhow, I'm swinging in today to share a card I made for the current Paper Smooches May Challenge.



I kept things soft and simple. I used some colored pencils (again) to color my images. And then added my sentiment and a few sequins, along with some twine to finish things off. Easy peasy, right?!...

You're my main squeeze

Hey y'all! Happy Wednesday!
Hope all is well?!...

Things are good here, just busy. My kids and I are counting down the days left of school, which isn't too much...we're excited. :)

Anyhow, I'm just sharing another 'just for fun' card. No challenges or anything. I'm still using up those new and barely used sets that I have. ;)


Once again I went with using colored pencils. Practice, practice, practice, right?! ;) I really didn't have a full idea of what kind of card I was making. So I colored in several images and then they sat for a few days until something came to me...I figured if they sat long enough, something was bound to come to me. lol


Well, that's all for me today.

So totally...

Hey y'all! Happy Sunday!
Hope all is well?!...

Today is another baking day for me, as well as trying to sneak in some crafty time and commenting. ;) The card I'm sharing today I actually made yesterday, though didn't have time to edit until today.

I made my card for the current CAS-ual Fridays Challenge.


Now, I know it's say 'pick 6 birthday' and hopefully my card works just for that?! ;) I chose words that would be for and describe a birthday...aaand I even made it where it could be for a guy...say what?! lol (Masculine cards are always so hard for me.)


I must say, I was going with using six words...though that backfired on me when I added the last part of my sentiment. lol So I had to do some thinking because I did like my card but really didn't want to start over or toss it out. Then it came to me...why not six sequins?! I went with adding six silver sequins, three at the top of my words and three at the bottom of my words. Easy peasy, right?!...
