Another card we gave to Dad last week.
Supplies: Stamp – Papertrey Ink, paper – basketball paper – source unknown (pattern is “Shootin’ Hoops”, it is OLD!), Papertrey Ink Kraft, Stampin’ Up! Cajun Craze, ink – VersaMark, dies – Spellbinders, gold stars – Pretty Pink Posh, embossing powder – Stampin’ Up! Classy Copper.
Has anyone seen my mojo? Or my crafting time?
Both have seemed to disappear this week.
So…a quick card for today. I love this the way it is, but, depending on who I send it to, I may add some flowers or foliage to the corners of the sentiment banner.
Have a nice weekend!

I had to hustle to make an anniversary card for the in-laws, and my mojo was GONE. I searched my paper collection and found this piece from Stampin’ Up! Painted Blooms. (Hubby even asked if I hand painted the card, so my efforts worked. I answered honestly…”not my work…very pretty paper”. 😉 )
Supplies: Stamp – Rubber Stampede, paper – Neenah Classic Crest Solar White, Stampin’ Up! Daffodil DelightPacific Point, Painted Blooms DSP (retired), ink – VersaMark, dies – My Favorite Things, butterfly punch – Martha Stewart, embossing powder – Ranger Liquid Platinum.
I have struggled with my mojo since my mother’s car accident (other tasks to do, mind going to different topics). So, I pulled out my favorite Amy Tangerine On A Whim paper pad, and made these cards. They made me happy…not exactly the most creative, but a step in the direction of creativity.

Offspring3 found this Mazel Tov! stamp in one of the Ellicott City Antique stores. The stamp has the copyright date of 1993…coincidentally, the recipient was born that year. Not sure that either qualify as “antique” – LOL!

This is another sentiment from my new My Favorite Things sentiment set.
The butterflies are all punched from American Crafts Amy Tangerine On A Whim scraps with a Martha Stewart punch (it punches 2 small and one large butterfly at once, if you want 3 butterflies).
I did think, “oh, my, what have I gotten myself into??” about halfway through the gluing process. I am in love with the final card.

This beautiful tile paper is from the Kaiser Craft Havana Nights pad. It is embossed – I could not get a good photo to show the shiny embossed detail.
I am working on a specific set of encouragement cards for someone. (waving at YOU, Pati K!)
