Yeah...I'm kinda late posting this (like really late). I put the post in "draft" and forgot about it. But better late than never huh?
I really like how it turned out. The Valentine card was made using a Spellbinder die (Majesty). I love the way it is designed. It is smaller than a regular A2 card but that was the size of the die. I put glitter paper under the die so it would be spar-ka-ly. We all like bling right? The stamp I used on the front is a Gina K. Designs stamp and for the embellishment I just used some tulle and made a little flower out of ribbon.
Let me know what you think. Thanks guys! Scrappy hugs to all!
Oh my goodness. It has been awhile since I have posted. I have not been well and even when I actually get a video posted, those sometimes are few and far between. LOL And this is a late post anyway. I made a birthday card for my uncle who is really into Tinkerbell. So weird, but funny. You should see his trailer. Tinkerbell everywhere. Not sure how is girlfriend reacted to that. I guess it doesn't bother her too much...she is still with him. I used images of Tinkerbell that I found on the internet. I did not have time to cut it out on my Cricut. The images I used are really cute. I also used a new Spellbinders die for the frame around her. I really love this die. It's so elegant looking. Here is the video of the card. Let me know what you think about it.
I know I am so so late posting this but thought you may want to see it anyway. Here are the cards I donated to the Caring Hearts Card Drive that went on awhile back. I was able to send several cards this year. I hope whoever gets one will enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed making them.
I am hoping next year I can do a lot more. Maybe I should start early on making them huh? Hugs! Karen Sue
I had more than enough cards in my stash to share so I decided to send some to different places for donation. There are several organizations all over the country that could benefit from several different types of donations, including greeting cards. Here are some of the cards that I am sending.
These particular cards are going to a pregnancy center in Ohio. Baby cards are just one need, but they also need thank you cards that they send to donors and birthday cards they send to volunteers.
I also have some cards going to a senior center in New York. I love making cards and having some place to actually send my overflow is just a bonus.
I did a few Halloween cards this year. I am not much into Halloween since our kids grew up but when our grandchildren get older, it will be something I will enjoy a little more. Here are the cards.
Watch the video below to get a closer look at them.
I turn 50 on October 14! Yeah I am a half a century old. What a milestone huh? I wanted to do a challenge giveaway that would help me know a little bit more about you guys. See my video below for all the rules and directions. I would really appreciate it if you would participate. Let me know if you have any questions. Big hugs!
Hey there! My name is Karen Sue. I have been married to a wonderful man for 36 years. We have two boys (32 and 29) and our doggiepoo Zoe. My only hobby used to be watching movies. But since I started scrapbooking/crafting, that has become my favy thing to do. I love it! It is very relaxing. I scrapbooked for my kids when they were growing up in school, making albums on specific trips and it was such a blast putting them together. My oldest son is married and has two sons (our first grandchildren). Our youngest just got married in Oct 2022. I hope you enjoy my blog and can get some inspiration from it!
