Just Us Girls #849 ~ Merry Christmas

Hello, my friends! It's WORD WEEK at Just Us Girls and our hostess Carol has picked MERRY!

When looking through my supplies, I found this pretty paper (Mintay Papers) saying Merry Christmas had already been die cut with a PPP border die. I just had to decide what to do with it! I popped it onto a white panel embossed with a SSS snowflake pattern. The cluster of holiday prettiness came from the same paper pad. A polka dot mug, peppermint sticks, gingerbread, a pink poinsettia... I think it looks very merry!

*** A quick medical update on my wrist for those that have asked or emailed. Two months of casts have come and gone. I'm in a hard formed splint now and the pin comes out on the 24th. I'll have PT next. I've not been allowed to use my right hand since Sept 1st ~ YIKES! The hubs has been great though and done so much. He's so cute, he goes into the kitchen to cook dinner and says "Ok tell me what to do" !! I can't wait to make cards again. Hopefully soon. Might have enlist Sweet P for some help! She did do prep work to help papa out with dinner a few times and baked us cookies! ***

Okay, my friends it's your turn now. We hope to see your cards in our gallery this week! Have a blessed day and thanks for spending a bit of it with me!

Just Us Girls #848 ~ From Our House to Yours

Hello, friends! We have a new challenge up at Just Us Girls and I am hosting! I would like to see your take on ACORN for our DIE WEEK challenge. I had just the little cutie in my stash that wanted to come out to play!

I paired this sweet set, called Home Sweet Home by Waffle Flower, with some cute patterned paper from my vast collection. I really do need to use more of my 6x6 paper pads... can you relate??!! I used PPP tag and border dies along with a PTI banner die for my old Hero Arts sentiment. The focal image was Copic colored.

Warm and cozy, don't you think? 

It's your turn now, friends.

 I look forward to seeing your cards in our gallery!

CAS Christmas ~ Merry Christmas!

 

How is it possible that's it's November already? Time flies! Since it is the 1st of November, we have a new challenge for you at CAS Christmas. Susan is hosting and is looking for REINDEER on your cards! I broke out this older cutie by Pretty Pink Posh.

After stamping, coloring and die cutting the reindeer and gifts, I added them to an embossed (SSS) panel. A simple sentiment and a rhinestone for Rudolph's nose completed my scene. 

It's your turn now, my friends and you have the entire month to play along. Better hurry though, those days do fly by!

Just Us Girls #847 ~ Give Thanks

 

Hi, friends! It's CASE a Design Team member at Just Us Girls this week. Head over to the blog, check out the marvelous makes from the team and pick one to CASE. I pulled out some fall favorites for my card. Take a look...

I started with a pretty Mama Elephant cover plate. Isn't this a warm and cozy plaid? It's from Memory Box. That sweet plump pumpkin is by The Stamp Market. I love it's shape, little stem and the tendrils. I couldn't resist cutting it from polka dot paper! A wee sentiment by DeNami Design was stamped then punched with a Martha Stewart punch I've had for an eternity. This says fall to me and I'm pleased with the way it turned out!

Thanks for spending a bit or your day with me.

I hope to see your card in our gallery!
