Male Birthday Card

Image
It is always nice to have simple masculine birthday cards. I used Sea Glass and Kraft cardstock along with the Wise Guy  birthday stamp. 

Sympathy Card

Image
One of my co-workers lost her father-in-law right before Christmas. In today's obituary it talks about wearing purple to the funeral. I decided to make a Sympathy card using the Ciruct Artiste cartridge for the flowers and the Flower Market Cartridge for the sentiment. I used the retired Quatrefoil embossing folder for the Gypsy cardstock.

Happy Birthday Card

Image
This was a quick masculine Happy Birthday  card I made today using the City Sidewalks  paper pack and the Finding the Words stamp set.

Hello World Card

Image
So much fun in the snow was had today, that I only had a few minutes tonight to make a card. Washington Sate University is also playing in a bowl game tonight so we are watching the game as family! One of my neighbors is having a baby so I thought this card would be perfect to deliver with a meal. I used the retired Surf's Up (I think) Picture My Life card and Cocoa cardstock.

Thank you from the Heart

Image
Today I decided to use all cardstock  and my Cricut Artfully Sent cartridge to create this simple Thank You card. I used Sea Glass, Raspberry and the retired Outdoor Denim cardstock.

City Sidewalks Thank You

Image
The house is quite as everyone is playing with their new Christmas goodies. I had a few moments to sneak downstairs and start working on Thank You cards. I used the City Sidewalks  paper pack along with the Finding the Words stamp set and the retired stamp, Tweet Greetings, set for the wreath.  I added berries to the wreath with retired Red Glitter Glue. I am so glad I found it the other day while cleaning! I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas! 

Final Thank Your Card

Image
I have had such a good time making a card every day for the past year. This is my 370th card! Creating a card every day has made me more intentional in sending cards to those I care about. I have also compiled some extra cards to use in a case of emergency. While I won't be making a card every day in 2017, I will still make a few cards a month and post them here. In 2017 I want to spend more time quilting and catching up on our family scrapbooks. You can see those works on my other blog. The Quilted Scrapper . I hope you have an amazing 2017 and spend some time creating for yourself. For my final card I used Sea Glass cardstock and the December Stamp of the Month, Thoughtful Flowers.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas Eve. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas weekend with your friends and family. I created this quick card this morning using the City Sidewalks paper pack and the Flower Market Cricut Cartridge .

Merry Christmas

This morning I created this fun card using the City Sidewalks  paper pack. I used both the Flower Market Cricut cartridge for the sentiment and the Cricut Artistry cartridge for the holly.

Swan Lake Christmas

Image
Today is the first day of winter break! I am so excited to have almost 2 weeks off to rejuvenate! This morning I decided to see how Swan Lake  would look as a Christmas card. I love how it turned out. I used the following CTMH supplies to create this card: Swan Lake Cricut Flower Market Collection Black Shimmer Trim

Merry Christmas

Image
I know it is not Throwback Thursday yet, but the retired Paper Fundamentals papers are perfect for a male co-worker Christmas card. I used the Flower Market Cricut Cartridge to cut the sentiment.

Merry Christmas

Today I combined the White Pines paper pack, Fern cardstock and the trees from the Flower Market Cricut Cartridge .

Oh Deer! Merry Christmas

Image
This morning I had the change to play with the Oh Deer!  paper pack before work. I added clothespins for a more light hearted look.

City Sidewalks Noel

Image
I still am short about 5 Christmas cards for co-workers so this week is all about Christmas cards! I used the City Sidewalks  paper pack and my Flower Market Cricut Cartridge to create this fun card. I love how the City Sidewalks paper pack has a true red and green color pattern and on the other side has  more teal color patterns.

Rustic Home Happy Birthday Card

Image
I love how the Rustic Home paper pack coordinates with the Sea Glass cardstock. I cut the tag out of the Flower Marker Cricut Cartridge from Close to My Heart. The sentiment is from the Finding the Words stamp set.

Thank You Card

Image
This morning I had a few moments to make a Thank You  card before work. I used the Enchantment Fundamental paper along with Black Shimmer Trim. The sentiment is from this month's Stamp of the Month, Thoughtful Flowers . This card will come in handy after Christmas when we are writing thank you cards.

Thank You Card

For today's Throwback Thursday card I used the retired Fundamental Assortment paper pack and the retired stamp set, You Mean the World to Me. My son will be using this to write Thank You notes for Christmas gifts.

Thank You "Thoughtful Flowers"

This morning I woke up early enough to go to my craft room and color! I LOVE this month's Stamp of the Month, Thoughtful Flowers. (Available for $5 with any $50 purchase.) I used my ShinHan markers and colored the flowers and then used my Art Philosophy cartridge to cut the tag out of Kraft cardstock. All supplies used to make this card can be ordered here .

This morning I had time to create another Christmas card. I used the City Sidewalks  paper pack and the retired Card Chatter-Christmas Stamp set. The new Willow ink was perfect for the sentiment.

I Ruff Christmas

Today was a busy day and I am just finally getting time to sit down and create. I love the City Sidewalks   paper pack along with the fun PML cards. I also added a faux paper clip from the retired Fundamental embellishment pack.

Christmas Thank You Card

I need to make a few Thank You cards to have on hand for Christmas. I used the City Sidewalks  paper pack, Red Glitter paper and the Cricut Artistry Cartridge to make this simple thank you card.

White Pines Easel Christmas Card

Image
I am loving the White Pines paper pack from CTMH. I found the rest of my paper pack had quite a lot of paper left! I create an easel card using the White Pines paper and the current Woodland Wishes stamp set.

Holiday Cheer Card

Today I used more of the retired White Pines paper from Close to My Heart along with the retired Tweet Greetings stamp set. I used my ShinHan markers to color the owl and my shimmer brush  to add sparkle to the white santa hat. Have a great weekend!

Merry & Bright

Image
Today's Throwback Thursday card uses the retired Holiday Sparkles and Art Philosophy Cartridge. I used the current Merry and Bright  sentiment from the Woodland Wishes stamp set along with Kraft and Fern cardstock.

Noel Card

Image
Today I had the opportunity to play with the Wood Slats embossing folder along with White Daisy cardstock to create a base for this card. I used Fern cardstock and the Flower Marker Circut Cartridge for the wreath and red glitter paper for the Noel  sentiment. I had some red glitter glue from CTMH that I found and used for berries on the wreath.

Thank You Card

Image
I continue to love all the colors in the Swan Lake paper pack. The December Stamp of the Month, Thoughtful Flowers coordinates perfectly with the paper pack. I decomposed the card by cutting the bottom 1 1/2" off the card and reattached them with Poppy cardstock. I colored the flowers with my ShinHan markers. Have a fabulous Monday!

Jolly Christmas Card

Image
Happy Monday!! Today I used the B&T strips from City Sidewalks along with the Jolly  from City Sidewalks Complements . This is a fun way to use the B&T strips from any paper pack.

Snowman Card

Image
I used the Rustic Home Fundamentals and Peacock cardstock to create this fun and whimsical snowman card. I cut circles out at multiple sizes. I used the retired Flakey Friends stamp set. I colored the snowmen with my ShinHan markers. All supplies for this card can be ordered here .

Thank You Card

Image
The Thoughtful Flowers stamp of the month and the Rustic Home Fundamentals paper pack coordinate nicely to create a simple Thank You card. I used Sea Glass cardstock and ink to stamp the flowers.

Merry Christmas Pop Up Card

Image
This card was so fun to make thanks to the easy tutorial from Your Stamping Journey . It took me some time to create the front as it was such a large canvas! However, the Woodland Wishes Thin Cuts Bundle  was perfect to go with the Oh Deer! paper pack. I used Sea Glass cardstock as my base along with Fern and Coca Ink. Happy Friday!

Thoughtful Flowers Card

Image
This morning I had the opportunity to play with the new Thoughtful Flowers Stamp of the Month. While I am not usually a fan of fussy cutting I absolutely love this stamp set. I colored the flowers with my ShinHan markers and the Shimmer Brush (my new favorite tool). I used the retired Outdoor Denim cardstock and the Happy Thoughts Embossing  folder.
