Belated Birthday


Today I'm revisiting and redoing a card design that I entered into a blog challenge yesterday. I stepped this one up a little and I'm much happier with the outcome. Although it is a belated birthday card, I will be entering into the Seize the Birthday challenge.




PARTICULARS:

Stamp: MFT Wild Woodland with matching dies
MFT Grassy Edges
Prismacolor pencils/Gamsol
Ink: GinaK Amalgam Black
SU Balmy Blue, SU Mossy Meadow
Neenah Solar White 110# for base
SU SubtleFolder

That's it for tonight. It's been a busy day and I still need to clean up my crafting area. I hope you have a blessed Monday and are going to do something you LOVE!

Blessings,
Bernie

Aww Nuts


I am back today with a belated birthday I created this afternoon. I have decided to play along with the CAS(E) #335 sketch of the week that was a quick and easy card to put together.


After a conversation I had with my cousin in FL yesterday, I realized that I had forgotten her birthday.  So off to my crafting space I went today. I know she will chuckle when she opens it. There nothing like putting a smile on someones face with a handmade card.





PARTICULARS:


Paper: Neenah Solar White 110#, SU Mossy Meadow, Neenah Solar White 80#
Ink: GinaK Black Amalgam Ink, Memento Jet Black Ink
Prismacolor Pencils/Gamsol
MFT  Wild Woodland w/ matching Die-Namics
MFT Grassy Edges Die-Namics
SU Ink: Soft Sky, Pool Party for blended background

Have a wonderful evening, enjoy your weekend, and go do something you LOVE!

Blessings,
Bernie

Butterfly Happy Birthday


Hi All! I hope your day is going well and you will be enjoying the upcoming weekend. I worked on a birthday card yesterday finishing it up today. It will be sent to my cousin in Texas who will be 80 at the end of the month. She has been a perpetual "21" for years and the inside sentiment fits her to a tea!



I will be linking this card over at Seize the Birthday today since their "Toppings" is Butterflies. You should "fly over to see the wonderful cards other card crafters have posted."


I hope you get to do something you LOVE this weekend! I'm off to make a couple of New Home cards and a Belated Birthday. We'll see how that goes...

Blessings, Bernie

Birthday Blessings


Just a quick stop by today. I've been in the process of making some more birthday cards and decided to link this one over at Seize the Birthday with the Topping of flowers.


I pulled out my Gardenia Build a Flower by Altenew to continue to work with it to become more proficient with the layering options. I did only use two-layer stamps for the flower and the leaf, but I am happy that I was able to have it turn out well.  Practice, Practice, Practice!

PARTICULARS:
Altenew Build a Flower, Gardenia
MFT Bitty Sentiments
MFT Rectangle Double Frame
MFT Skinny Strips
SU Pear Pizzazz CS, SU Garden Lane DSP, Neenah Solar White 110#

That's it for today. I hope you have a blessed day and are able to go do something you LOVE!

Blessings, Bernie
