Just Us Girls #845 ~ BOO

I took advantage of Carol's Mood Board for this week's Just Us Girl's challenge to make a cute little card for our Sweet P! I went pretty literal with the elements I used. Take a look...

I cut an opening in the card base with a MFT Stitched Square die. Then I adhered a small knit embossed square, PPP leaf and little Poppystamps ghost to the inside of the card. The stamped and punched letters are popped up with foam dots.


Here's a peek at the inside. 

I think my best girl will enjoy this and I hope you did!

Can't wait to see your take on the photo!

Just Us Girls #844 ~ Doing My Happy Dance

It's WORD WEEK at Just Us Girls and Carol Mc is challenging us to create MOVE cards! These are some guidelines she's given us.

**Move means any of the following or more: Interactive, fun fold, a rocker card, pop-up, bridge card, shaker, wobbler, spinner, a tab to pull something, etc. **


I went with something that moves ~ a ballerina and I put her on a wobbler! A fave EF for the background with some added rhinestones for pizazz. The darling ballerina and sentiment are an oldie but goodie set from CASual Fridays. 

Speaking of moving... I finally got rid of the full arm cast and am down to a smaller forearm one! I can move my elbow! Still a long road, but so much easier to deal with now.

Okay, my friends put your thinking caps on and get moving!

Poppystamps

Hello, hello! I have a Christmas card to share with you over on the Poppystamps blog today. It all started with this pretty poinsettia paper and the Pinpoint Oval Frame. Pop over to see what I added to it!

CAS Christmas ~ Peace and Joy

 

Hello and welcome!

A new month means a new challenge at CAS Christmas!

This month's theme is POINSETTIA.


I've had this little woodblock poinsettia stamp for years and rarely use it. I bought it at Archivers; remember them? This was the perfect time to ink it up. I did just that using red and blush pink inks. I die cut the panel with a PTI die and popped it onto a blush card base. A sweet Mama Elephant bow tops my PPP tag holding my PPP sentiment.

Okay, it's your turn now.

You just have to decide which of your poinsettias you'll use! 


Just Us Girls #843 ~ Leaves & Pumpkins Please!


Hiya peeps! Carol has a fun and easy challenge for DIE WEEK at Just Us Girls ~ Halloween! It's a new month of challenges and that means we have a new guest designer joining us. Welcome to Carrie Sheridan! 

I pulled out a retired Poppystamps die for my card. 
Take a look...



I die cut the Poppystamps pumpkin frame then backed it with a leafy PP. This was popped onto a postage frame then onto the embossed card base. A sweet little sentiment (PTI) went onto one of my fave PPP mini tags.

I look forward to your take on Halloween. I just know it will be SPOOK-tacular! See you again this afternoon for a new CAS Christmas challenge!
