Happy Birthday Fun Fold

 

 



I am still here and still crafting.  Several projects are in process.
I took a break yesterday to make this fun fold card
  for a dear friend for her birthday. I was inspired
by the this tutorial. All supplies are from
Stampin' Up.

Pocket cards

I found this delightful quick fun fold card on Karen Titus's blog, you can
find directions here.   I made up a bunch of these to send to cancer patients
at Chemoangels and used up a couple of paper packs in the 
process.  I think these will  brighten their day.

Peaceful Christmas


Sharing another Christmas card today.  I blended the background
with Oxide inks, splattered white paint for snow.  Added a snow 
hill and my snowman colored with Copics.  This card just makes
me smile, I'll be making a few more similar ones next year.

Rainy Day



 I have had this Avery Elle, Look for Raindrops, stamp set for over a year
and finally inked it up to make a get well card for a friend that had
a knee replacement.  I am trying to work my way through those never
before used items in my stash!

Christmas card

 Time to start showing the Christmas cards I have made this year.  I had
a lot from last year events and kits so I did not have to make many,  my
stash is all used up now so I've ordered a few new things to
start on next year!!


I used the poinsettia from a pillow box die set I have,
it is hidden on my crafting table at the moment, I
can add the company when I find it.  The Noel is
Tim Holtz and the gold leaves are Fiddly Leaves
by Simon Says Stamp (one of my most used dies).
I made a few  versions of this card, all a bit 
different.

JDS-New Year

  It's mid month at the monthly challenge at Jan's Digi Stamps.
 

 This New Year set is a new release.  I cut it on my
Scan N Cut and cut an extra had and horn for dimension.
Colored with Copics.  For the background I use a 
stencil that has been in my stash but not used yet, Warp Speed
by Altenew-it will be seeing a lot of ink now! Sentiment and its
layer are die cut.

Some sad and happy news.  The owners of Jan's Digi
Stamps are retiring.  We will miss their beautiful
digi's.  You may want to stock up with the current sale.
Jan's Etsy shop will remain open.
