Happy Birthday

 

I made this card for a few of my favorite challenges and to have in my stash.

I started with Altenew Bewitching  Rose Project kit, it came with the flower

arrangement above- the stencils, die cut, embossing folder-if you enlarge

the picture you can see the detail, and numerous sentiments.  The background

piercing die is from my stash but I do not have the name of it. I've made several

cards with this lovely set.

Can You Handle the Pressure: Option rainbows 4/25

Beautiful Day

 

Just a simple card I made wanting to use my new Altenew Mini

White Spendour Anemone flower, sentiment from another 

Altenew set and white lattice from Momenta.

I'm curious  if any of you have bought the Sarah Renae Clark

Color Cubes and how you like them if you did.

Bouqet for Mom

 

 Happy Mother's Day to all!

My mom's Mothers Day card. Image is Altenew-a May 2022 set that

comes with stamp, stencils, embossing folder and die, 

stencil is Pink and Main. I like the look of embossing after

stenciling the rose bouquet. I added sparkle with my 

Wink of Stella and used a white gel pen and some gems.

Happy Anniversary

 

I have not created or posted for awhile.  Hopefully I am out of

my slump.  For those that have been asking, I am 5 weeks out

from my hip recovery and am doing well.  Each day is a 

an improvement towards normal.

I was inspired yesterday by Jayce Gasper who appeared on a

live with Jennifer McGuire, it can be found here.  He is

a scientist and card maker and I learned so much from

him.  I also did the double embossing on my background.

 

The rose die is Altenew, I cut the cold layer and the

Happy Anniversary from scraps.  Base layers from

white and colored with distress oxides.

I made this card with some Altenew stamps,  had a lot

of fun making it.

Have a beautiful day!
