My card today uses Newton's 4th of July stamp set from Newton's Nook Designs.
I was inspired by the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #593.
I used a Night of Navy card base. (I meant to use Starry Sky, oops!) My tags are cut using the largest die from SU!'s Greetings of the Season. The sentiment is from NND's Birthday Barks. I finished it off with some ribbon, baker's twine and some gold sequins.

I am all over the place in my craft studio! I want/NEED to scrapbook. I NEED to order photos...which I did begin that task. With another grandchild due in December I have got to get my photos under control. As I was going through my photos I had taken no less than 30 photos of the grand girls in just ONE day! That might be a bit excessive and it is extremely difficult to decide which ones to print. LOL! Every card challenge I see I want to do and my mind starts creating for it, then I veer left and start creating what's in my mind, what's out on my work station, etc! Oh, such problems! NOT! LOL!
So here is today's card inspired by a lunch date I had with one of my besties. We talked about living in quieter times, using a bike instead of a car and going into a quaint little town to buy a baguette, a scone or have a cup of tea.
My new favorite thing to do with an envelope flap...when the paper doesn't quite cover the flap I stamp a sweet sentiment. This one is from SU! Unbounded Love. I love it! (sorry about the shadow in photo 😐)
Today I am going to work on scrapbooking!

I made another card with the wonderful sketch from yesterday's cards!
The Paper Players wanted spots or stripes.
Today's card uses the 2024-2026 In Color DSP. I used Petunia Pop, Peach Pie and Shy Shamrock and they all went on a Basic Beige card base after I rounded the corners. I had a slight boo boo so I was able to fix it with the rounded corners and I liked how it turned out! I ink blended (!) a circle using the same In Color inks as the paper and popped that cute NND kitten from Kitten Beach up on dimensionals.

I got lost at the end of last week...we had the grand girls! Autumn came on Wednesday and spent the night. Her daycare was closed last week. It's just their annual week of being closed, I guess. We asked if we could have Paisley on Thursday so the girls could play together. They are playing together more and it is so cute and so fun.
