Although everyday we should be grateful and feel blessed, Thanksgiving is a beautiful reminder, I love also the colors, the leaves changing from green to those beautiful fall colors.

- Stamps & Fun= Creativity 395: Colors do Autumn
I bought a small set of Brusho Crystals some months ago and had yet to even open them so I decided to play with some of the colors tonight...and put this card together. I used a Lawn Fawn stitched rectangle die, Brushos in Lemon Yellow and Turquoise, and a sentiment stamp by Dare2BArtzy (More Cake set) and Mark's Finest Papers (Big City set) for this colorful card. I was inspired by Papercrafters Corner Magazine Monday Week 139 for this festive city skyline scene.
Dare2BArtzy April Challenge: Polka Dots. Now, at first glance you might not see any polka dots, but one of the reasons I used Brusho crystals is because the crystals leave vivid spots of color on paper when you spray with a little water....or, in other words, they make polka dots! www.dare2bartzy.com/wp/528-2/

I decided to pretty up some tags that I found in my gift wrapping cabinet with dies and stamps, as they were perfectly plain before I started to play with them. The little tea-pot is by Paper Smooches, with a stitched oval by Gina Marie, and I added a sentiment by Studio G and steam die by Cottage Cutz. The holly leaves are by Honey B Studios and I used Nuvo drops for the berries, An old gold eyelet and some twine finishes it off.

I have been participating in the ATC challenge over on Janis' blog, A Peaceful Garden, and this week's theme is Chocolate. I was tickled to see this choice of theme because, not only do I love chocolate, but I also actually have several stamps sets that celebrate this delight of delights. I pulled out a very, very old set by Stampin Up which is all about chocolate, and heat embossed this big Hershey's kiss on some cranberry card stock. Yes, the card stock looks cherry red here, but believe me...it's cranberry. I also edge the ATC base with silver embossing, and stamped and embossed a swirly heart image from My Minds Eye. The sentiment is by Club Scrap.

Summer is a busy time for my family as we have several vacations, swimming lessons for the kids, and lots of barbeques and parties. I was able to make this robot birthday card for a birthday that my 7 year old attended this week and used up some scraps of paper in the process. Love these cute robot stamps by Recollections and the gear dies by Spellbinders.

I've been looking at the color combo challenge on Winnie and Walter for over a week now and have had trouble figuring out how to incorporate the colors into a card. So I just went ahead and pulled a bunch of card stock scraps in those colors and played around. Turns out that I managed to make two cards, and the key was floral die cuts! The scalloped frame is from Audrey Cutaways by Winnie and Walter, and the sentiment is from Wishing You, also by Winnie and Walter. The flower dies are by Stampin' Up and the ferns are by Spellbinders. I also used a postage stamp die by Avery Elle and stitched rectangle die by Gina Marie. I even added some little dots of Nuvo drops to the center of the pink flower for texture.
Winnie and Walter May Color Combo challenge: I used the inspiration colors of harvest gold, burnt orange, olive green, pale blue and pink as well as the Audrey die set by Winnie and Walter.

Here is another Thanksgiving card, which I plan to send to my late father-in-law's wife, who is 92 years old. I send her a card every month with a note about what we've been up to and she always writes back! The papers are from a DCWV mat stack and lots of scraps from my stash. I love fall colors so much and don't know why I don't make many cards for the season. The tiny pumpkin die is by Spellbinders and the tag die is by Pretty Pink Posh. I used an embossing folder by Darice as well. The sentiment is a sticker by 7 Gypsies that I've had in my stash for a long long time and went perfectly with these papers.

I'm still not blogging or crafting much so I'm sharing my cards on Flickr for now.
Today's card was inspired by the Stripes Theme at Newton's Nook Inky Paws Challenge 154:
www.inkypawschallenge.com/2021/08/inky-paws-challenge-154...
This is my first mini slimline card and it measures 3 1/4 inches by 6 1/4 inches. I stamped, coloured, and fussy-cut the bunny from Newton's Nook Woodland Springs set. I cut stripes from a scrap of patterned paper and adhered to a scrap of kraft cardstock. I wanted a punny bunny sentiment so I stamped one from Craftin Desert Divas (no longer in business). The bunny is popped up on foam tape. It's a simple card but I like it!

Thank you for looking at my card! I wish you a joy-filled day!
My daughter recently won a beautiful die by Poppy Stamps and I borrowed it to make this summery coffee-themed card. It was almost a disaster, as I managed to get some dark brown ink on one corner of the panel after I had nearly finished the card...awk! I put it aside for a day while I figured out a way to save it. The solution was to make my own photo corners....done and saved! The die is Floribunda collage by Poppy Stamps and the coffee cups are by K.Andrews. I used stamps by Hero Arts to make the patterned cup sleeves and added Nuvo drops to the centers of some of the flowers. Next time I'll put my partially finished cards in a safer spot!

I have been wanting to use this cute snow globe stamp set by Memory Box (Snowglobe Wishes) for awhile and finally made a card with it. Fussy cutting that deer kind of drove me nuts but my sweet husband bailed me out by cutting it for me., lol! The sentiment is by Unity stamps and the rest are by Memory Box. The twine is from D.L.Art.

This card was inspired by Day 2 of Spring Card Camp - make your own stripes. I used the 2 skinnier stripes from SSS Brush Stroke Messages on a block to stamp the background. The SSS Flickr Challenge right now is "Splatter it," and I thought that went well with the artsy look of the background. So I watered down some Black Soot Distress Ink and went to town with the splatters. I used some images from Bold Flowers by SSS to create the focal point flower cluster. It was getting a little lost, so I mounted it on a stitched circle die by SSS. Finished it with a simple sentiment from the same SSS Brush Stroke messages set.
I found a new-to-me company called Dare2BArtzy through the virtual GLMM event this weekend, and they have a challenge on their blog, too! Their current theme is "In the Garden," so I'm also linking up there (blog.dare2bartzy.com/tag/challenge/)
I used this coffee cup stamp by Joy Clair from the Christmas Coffee set, and added a die cut steam cut by Dare2BArtzy. The tag die is Gina Marie and I embossed it with an EF by Darice.

Stamplorations Summer theme and sketch. Stamps and AG: stamplorations.blogspot.com/2018/07/summer-theme-and-sket...
Another teal themed card to celebrate Taylored Expressions 12th birthday. I used small circle mask from the TE Circle Masking stencils, and then inked through the TE Tulip stencil in an ombre of teals. I stamped the Handlettered Sentiment in the open space. And then I added some clear jewels to hide the fact that I stamped it off-center ;)! The ModSquadChallenge.com theme this fortnight is embellishing your stencil. In retrospect, I could have just done glitter paste of some sort. Instead, I added some glue to a few areas of the stencil and then sprinkled on some Rock Candy Distress glitter. Love the chunky glitter! And love the festive touch! The Dare 2B Artzy theme this month is Favorite Color, so I'm linking another turquoise wonder there (blog.dare2bartzy.com/). And since I can't pick a single favorite stamp for SSS Wednesday Favorite Stamp challenge, I'm going with a favorite stamp theme of handlettered sentiments.
I used a mug die by Paper Smooches, and a whipped topping stamp and sentiment by Dare2BArtzy, plus a candy cane stamp by Altenew for this tag. I added rhinestones for some sparkle. I love anything chocolate, and a candy cane just makes it that much better!

June was not much of a crafting month for me but one hop I always want to participate in is the Coffee Lovers hop. This quarter the theme is coffee and summer so I made this. I also pulled out some stamps by Winnie & Walter, to enter it in their color combo challenge. Coffee and summer go together like...well, everything good! The coffee to-go cup is by Verve from the free July 4th digi, and the paper is an old stack by DCWV.

D.L.Art Thankful Thursday Linky,: Summer fun: dianamlarson.blogspot.com/2017/06/dlart-thankful-thursday...
I helped my two girls make Valentines this past week for their classroom parties and even made one of my own..yay me! I had a little bit of this fun glitter heart paper left over from an old project and added this cupcake by Paper Smooches that I had also die cut months ago. My mom was nice enough to give me this stamped wood grained panel from her left over stash, which is by Winnie and Walter and I cut out this XOXO from an older card that I started last year. All leftovers and I feel good about turning them into something. The double stitched frames are by Gina Marie .
Entered into these challenges:
Winnie & Walter Birthday challenge Inspiration by Gayatri. I used the party theme and colors for my card. www.blog.winniewalter.com/2018/02/w-4th-birthday-bash-ins...
Winnie & Walter Birthday challenge , Use your scraps by Kelly. www.blog.winniewalter.com/2018/02/w-4th-birthday-bash-use...
Winnie & Walter Birthday Challenge Use four things, by Shay. I used four different colors of pink, which is what happens when you use only scraps and left overs. I also used four different companies products to make my card. www.blog.winniewalter.com/2018/02/w-4th-birthday-bash-fou...

Simon Says Stamp, Send a Card to a Friend Day: I sent this card to my cousin, who is one of my best friends. She had her first baby and can use some sweetness and love!
I used the Dare2BArtzy stamp set, Cup of Cheer again, to make this card in a different color combo. This cup of cocoa looks like it's got peppermint added to it, doesn't it? The embossing folder is Tim Holtz, by Sizzix and the stitched rectangle is by Gina Marie. The sentiment is by Studio G.

My mom brought a whole stack of little square white cards, along with die cut stitched squares, for my two daughters to make Valentine cards with. There were several left over so I grabbed a couple and made my own cards with the left overs. The stitched squares are by Cottage Cutz and the cool heart is by Technique Tuesday. I stamped the image and sentiment with Versafine Onyx ink. The sentiment is by Winnie & Walter, from Parentville and I just added a punched flower and rhinestone.

Summer time means bright colors, and I was inspired by several challenges online, including the bright rainbow colors of the Winnie & Walter Color challenge for June, and the Dare2BArtzy July challenge. I pulled out my brightest scraps of card stock and made this. I used a stitched rectangle die by Lawn Fawn, the Our Town stamp set by Winnie & Walter, and this postage stamp frame. The sentiment is from the Parentville stamp set, also by W&W, and the clouds are by Paper Smooches.

Every year, a group of my friends and I go away for a 4 day crafting retreat near the beach, where we eat, craft, chat, laugh, and then craft some more. This year though, I had to skip it because of my son's wedding, so I decided to have my very own craft retreat! I spent a large part of the day making cards and playing with a few items that I haven't used in awhile, or at all. This card uses the mug and steam from Cup of Cheer by Dare2BArtzy, a scalloped circle by Sizzix, paper by DCWV and a sentiment from a set by Technique Tuesday. I can add this to my Christmas card stash for 2018!

Wow, I can't believe that March is almost over. I've been too busy to do much card-making but I couldn't resist this cute little llama stamp set by Craftsmart. I added it to an embossed dot background and used stitched dies by MFT.
The little llama blanket is a separate image so you can color it the way you want, or switch it out for a different style. Then I got fancy and made a matching envelope with one of the other sentiments in the set. So much fun!

My 6 year old daughter liked the Verve digi stamps so much that she colored several for her own use, which was fun!

My mom brought over a whole sheet of digi stamps by Verve Stamps and I thought this sentiment with the cute little tea cup was perfect for the Coffee Lovers Spring blog hop. You can either go with a coffee, tea, or cocoa theme. I used a paper punch for the flowers and corrugated card stock for the flower centers.

I was so excited to win this cute birthday cake die from My Creative Time and finally had the time to use it for a card. The dotted embossing folder is by Stampin Up and I used flower dies by Spellbinders. My favorite cake flavor is chocolate so that's what I made. Some Stickles glitter glue added to the candle flame and flower centers, and a few rhinestones made it fun and blingy. I also framed the card with a postage stamp frame by Avery Elle.

I can't believe that Thanksgiving in here in a week and I haven't even made a single Thanksgiving card to send to my family members yet. So, I pulled out some of my fall papers and dies and got to work tonight. The patterned paper is so old that I have no idea who made it and I used bits of scrap paper from my stash and dies by CC Designs and Spellbinders to put this together. The sketch is from the Viva La Verve November challenge and the stitched rectangles are Lawn Fawn. One down, four to go!!

The sentiment is by JustRite Stamps and I used papers by DCWV and from my stash. Added some copper penny Nuvo Drops that my blog friend Janis sent to me. She is the one responsible for setting me on my path to Nuvo Drop addiction and I've never looked back, ha!

I have had this stamp set by Dare2BArtzy for several years but only opened it up and used it today. I've been trying to use more of my stash that has been languishing far too long and it's almost like going shopping and getting new goodies! This is the Movie Night set, and I combined it with stitched rectangles by Lawn Fawn, and a heart image by My Minds Eye. I played around with different embossing folders for the background, but everything detracted from the bold, simple stamped sentiment and film strip so I ended up layering stitched rectangles and a thin mat instead.

Still working on Christmas cards tonight, and using up a lot of old patterned paper and paper scraps. Since I have a lot more cards to make, in a short time, I'm keeping the designs pretty simple, and using a lot of dies instead of stamps. This wreath die is by Spellbinders and the sentiment is by Taylored Expressions. The teapot die is by Paper Smooches.

Today is the last day of the Summer Coffee Lovers Hop, and I had two cards that I hadn't quite finished so I got busy! I used a coffee cup die by Spellbinders and a stitched oval die by Gina Marie. The papers are from a really old birthday stack and the saying is by Newtons Nook. I added some tiny stars from the Parentville Extras stamp set by Winnie and Walter.
