 Hello-

Its the early hours of the day.  

To all the Veterans, Thank you for your service. 

Having grown up with my Dad in the military, I have a high level of respect and gratitude for all they do. 

For this card I pulled out an oldie, but fun stampset.  I will be submitting the card to the As You See It Challenge (Harvest), Four Seasons (fall), and If You Give a Crafter a Cookie (Fall Leaves and Turkey time Inspo pic I loved all the orange shades).


 Some stamping, coloring, fussy cutting, thin mats, and a big sentiment.  This one took me a couple of hours to get through.  But it felt more flowing, so I am making progress getting back into the grove.

Hi There,

We had a couple of inches of snow overnight. It is so bright outside today. I am loving it. 

I sat down to make a card for the Paper Players Challenge. It took me forever, sigh.  I so need to make more cards to get back my muscle memory for making them. Course a new set up is slowing me down too, but I know before long I should be back at my usual speed. 




Some of the details are hard to see/photograph. The Cajun Craze panel is embossed with the Fall Leaf 3d SU EF.

  • Stamps:  SSS Giving Thanks
  • Dies: SU Stitched with Whimsey
  • Inks: SU Early Espresso, Old Olive, Mossy Meadow, Cajun Craze
  • Papers:  Hammermill, SU Cajun Craze
  • Embossing: SU Leaf Fall 3d

  

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by.
