Swapping with my Friend

 Hello y'all,

Each month, my friend, Audrey and I swap Artist Trading Cards (ATCs).  These little platforms measure 3.5 x 2.5 so it is easy way to design around it.  Here's what I sent Audrey:

Audrey gifted the palm tree dies to me.  Didn't they turn out nicely?  And they fit perfectly on the card.

This die was purchased on TEMU.com - I love tea and Audrey loves birds.

It's summertime and everyone loves to barbecue - this die also came from TEMU.com, as did the strawberries from the last ATC.

I enjoy paper crafting so much.

Happy Crafting!

I Found Something to Post

 Hello everyone,

I don't know why I often forget to post but I do have things to show that I've done in the past and sent to the charity.

I used Kraft paper for the base and the piece with the decorative edges.  It really looks good with a white contrast piece.

As you can see, I die cut a bunch of different shapes out - even the bicycles and daisies; to give each card a more defined look.

I am digging these.

Stay tuned - I have lots more to share (when I remember).

Happy Crafting.

Crafting in the Heat

 Hello peeps,

I'm not a fan of hot weather but I have to stay committed to my activities and one of them is to send cards each month to my charity.

I used one of my favorite stamps (Julie Nutting Doll stamps) for these cards.  With these, I used washi tape to decorate the front and added embellishments to make them stand out just a tad bit.

I really do enjoy creating cards that bring a spark of joy to others.

Happy Crafting!
