Hi Friend!

 Wednesday, July 26, 2023

Today's card has been sitting on my desk for a week or so. We were just looking at each other. LOL! I wanted to make more using this design but wasn't sure...

So, I decided to use it for the SUO Challenge this week.

I truly do not have a favorite color combo! It varies with whatever project I'm working on. For this card I used Coastal Cabana for the card base, black and white is always a fav, and the flowers are Berry Burst with a touch of Coastal Cabana and Lemon Lime Twist for the greenery. I used the now retired but oh, so awesome Pierced Blooms dies. The banner die is from the Nested Essentials dies. 

I'm going to write a little note to a friend and send this card along its way!

Happy Stamping!

Today's card is kind of special. A friend's grandmother died recently. Her grandma got the name 'Grandma Bingo' because she loved to play Bingo! Soooo, I borrowed a stamp set from a friend that had a Bingo card in it and made this card:

Not a traditional sympathy card but I think she'll love it! I hope she'll always remember the good times with Grandma Bingo! So sweet.

I am entering this card in this week's Paper Player's Challenge. It is a sketch challenge:

The stamp set is from My Creative Time called Game Night. 

I used SU!'s Delightfully Eclectic DSP on a Night of Navy card base. I used Bubble Bath to cut the circle from the Stylish Shapes dies. I stamped those Bingo cards in Crushed Curry and Night of Navy. 

Happy Stamping!

Today's card is one I made for our oldest son, Steven, and his family. They just moved into a new-to-them house! 

I am also entering it in the Retro Rubber Challenge #211 where it is a Tic Tac Toe Challenge:

My card uses the diagonal twine, diecut and pens.  I used Stampin' Up!'s At Home with You stamp set and coordinating dies which retired in 2019. I colored with my SU! Blends and Markers. I love the new SU! Markers! I added the little twine bow to the wreath. 

I hope everyone has a wonderful day! It has been one busy summer around here and the Farmer is retired! Go figure! I will have to do a life update soon.

Happy Stamping!
