When I saw the challenge at Cupcake Inspirations, I knew I would be sharing my snow peeps card with all of you.
This is the last challenge for 2021 at Cupcake Inspirations. Can't wait to see your snow people creations!
Morning all! Can you believe it Thanksgiving is in three weeks! Where does the time go. It just flies away like the autumn leaves on the breeze.How many of you do the cooking for Thanksgiving? before the pandemic i would head to my brother's on the Monday before Thanksgiving and we would spend the next four days cooking. Now, I am cooking just for the dear husband and myself.
You have one more week to join in our fallish color challenge at Cupcake Inspirations.
My card today features a new stamp set from Penny Black. I have used this set quite a bit this year. Pumpkins can be colored in so many ways. See this post.

Penny Black has line of stamps that have the best price point. They were around $8.00, but have recently gone up to $9.00. Still a good price. "Blessed Birthday" is one of these self contained inexpensive stamps. This stamp was always sold out and it wasn't till after Christmas I was able to get it.
This week Christmas 24's theme is "Christmas Night". Christmas Night conjures up the thought of our first Christmas and the night of the Savior's birth. Today's card was a no brainer.
My card tip today is I stamped Bethlehem and fussy cut it, leaving a white border. I them went in with a copic marker and colored the cut edges with a marker that matched my background. This is a good tip for putting die cut images on darker card stock. See this blog post which includes a video on this technique.
You have two weeks to share what Christmas night means to you at Christmas 24. I can't wait to see what you all create.

November has brought spring back to us. Warm days in the 70s. WhileI am enjoying it, somehow it just doesn't feel right. Bring on the 50's. Shocking coming from someone who loves the hot weather the older she gets.
Today starts a new challenge at Cupcake Inspirations. We have a very fallish/Thanksgivingy feel color challenge. Red, orange and yellow.
I have been loving the adorable and whimsical fall critters from Penny Black and this little fox in his cap and scarf just plain make me smile! Pop him in the center of this cute wreath and voila a fun Thanksgiving card!

Today starts a new color challenge at The Rainbow Card Challenge. This months color is sapphire. Blues a bit tricky during a harvest month wouldn't you say. But no, not really. I say bring blue to the harvest!
My card today uses the "Golden Delight" by Penny Black and "Winter Aviary" by Flora and Fauna. A collection of blue and sapphire colored copics and voila- A blue harvest card!
Well I have met mt match with the color sapphire. I could not find one song with sapphire in the title. So I went with a group called The Sapphires. From my local town of Philly.
Let The Sapphires inspire your creations this month!
I have a special friend that loves blue, I think she will love my sapphire harvest card. You have all month to show us your sapphire creations at The Rainbow Card Challenge!!
My husband and I are not big sports people, occasionally baseball or maybe football if the Eagles are in the playoffs. But who can resist a cute teddy on top of a soccer ball. I am sure my husband wont be able to since he loves a good teddy card!
Today starts a new challenge at Cupcake Inspirations. The theme is SPORTS.
Today's card features "Star" from Penny Black and "Stop, Drop, Party" by Simon Says Stamp- a go to sentiment stamp set these days.
You have two weeks to share your sporty theme creation with us at Cupcake Inspirations! I can't wait to see what you come up with!
Holy moly, it's September already!! Where did this summer go. It's not like we had vacations at the beach, time spent in the mountains and time with family. Nope it was hunkering down with staycations and work. I have to believe that by next summer this craziness will be over.
If it is a new month that means a new color challenge at The Rainbow Card Challenge. This month's color is amber. A beautiful soft golden brown color to help us move into fall.
My card today uses a stamp set that I have been coveting for quite a while . "Exquisite Envelope" by Penny Black.
Sooooo, you are probably wondering if there is song about the color amber and guess what?!!? There is. Here is "Amber" the official video to inspire you.
You have the whole month of September to get your amber groove on at The Rainbow Card Challenge. I can't wait to see what you come up with.
