Baby's 1st Thanksgiving

 Hello & Happy Tuesday, Friends!

We are waking up to some very cold (20's) temps/weather here in southcentral PA!

I had to dig out my winter coat yesterday and today I may need to go looking for my gloves & scarf! Burrrr!

Today I have 2 cards to share that I made for Audrey's 2 great grandchildren. She now has 4 great grandchildren with another due in January! She is so excited to meet the little one!

These cards I kept the same and let me tell you, Audrey loved them!

Card Details:

Stamps: Brushwork Alphabet (retired), Birthday Celebrations (retired), Pick of the Patch (retired)

Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Pecan Pie

Cardstock: Crumb Cake, Pumpkin Pie, Basic White, Doodle Pumpkins by The Paper Studio

Accessories: Tasteful Textile 3D EF (retired), Pick of the Patch Builder Punch (retired), Birthday Celebrations Dies (retired), Word Wishes Dies (retired), Linen Thread, Neutral Adhesive Backed Sequins (retired), Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Adhesive Sheets, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I found the paper at Hobby Lobby a few months ago and decided to use it for the little ones cards. I used lots of different stamp sets & dies for these but they did turn out so nice! She has already asked for Baby's 1st Christmas cards so I need to get busy on them! I need to find some fun paper first! Stampin Up has given us some nice Christmas papers this year but I need something different for the little ones. I see another trip to Hobby Lobby soon or maybe even Michael's! Woohoo!

Baby's 1st Thanksgiving

 Hello & Happy Fri-YAY!

Yesterday we had a fun day out doing a little Christmas shopping. The weather was so delightful! Sunshine and 70 made for a beautiful day! 

Today I am sharing 2 cards made for Audrey's 2 new great granddaughters that were born in the last few months. These cards are for Baby's 1st Thanksgiving and I used the Pick of the Patch bundle to make them.

Pick of the Patch was perfect for these cards with the different sized pumpkins. I printed out the sentiment on the computer and added it to the cards. This reminded me of making my own DSP which is always fun! She loved them!

Card Details:

Stamps: Pick of the Patch, Sentiment computer generated

Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry, Old Olive, Cajun Craze

Cardstock: Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, Basic White

Accessories: Scalloped Contour Dies, Stitched Rectangle Framelits, Stylish Shapes Dies, Linen Thread, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Today is another busy day!

Shawn is off again and has the water company coming in to replace our meter and also the furnace people to give our furnace a once over. He noticed last weekend the one gasket is leaking water so that needs to be looked at. I think we may get a couple rain showers this afternoon which we so badly need. I am going to make a pot of sausage potato soup for supper and do some laundry. Maybe sometime I can get to my stamp table to play a little but we will see.

She is now the great grandmother of 2 little girls, one born in July and the other this past Monday. She was so happy....you could hear it in her voice. Anyways, here it the card I made for her...

Pick of the Patch bundle to the rescue again!

It's quite perfect for a baby's 1st Halloween isn't it?

Baby's 1st Halloween

 Hello & Happy Thursday!

For some reason I thought today was Friday! 

Guess I am super anxious for the Christmas movies to start on the Hallmark Channel!

Even though I have Christmas on my mind I have a Halloween card to share with you today that Audrey requested for her great granddaughter that was born in July. She wanted something cutesy so again the Pick of the Patch worked great for this!

Card Details:

Stamps: Pick of the Patch, Sentiment was computer generated

Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black Archival (retired), Cajun Craze, Pecan Pie

Cardstock: Pumpkin Pie, Basic White, Cajun Craze, Them Bones DSP

Accessories: Tasteful Textile 3D EF (retired), Stylish Shapes Dies, Circle Layering Framelits (retired), Stitched Rectangle Framelits (retired), Pick of the Patch Builder Punch, Cajun Craze Enamel Dots (retired), Black & White Gingham Ribbon, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

This card was quick & easy to make as I just used scraps from the DSP and my happy jacks were already stamped and put together. I just love this set and I hope that it carries over next year! I know that usually does not happen but I really like these happy jacks and the nice sentiments that come with it!

Yesterday I played a little bit with some Christmas sets and made a few treats holders. I will stop there since Christmas candy isn't out yet and I usually like my treat holders to match my candy. I also picked up a Halloween puzzle last weekend that I am dying to start!

Pick of the Patch

 Good Morning & Happy Thursday!

I am happy to say that my entire house is back to pre-Kelsey status!

I cleaned behind & under every nook & cranny to get rid of the dog hair. It was tedious and I thought to myself a couple of times that this job is never going to get done.

Today I am using the Ben Gay & heating pad to get some relief from my screaming back. The 3 days of moving Kelsey and my 4 day cleaning marathon is over!

Today I have the cutest set of Halloween cards to share with you!

This set uses the Pick of the Patch bundle from the new 2023 Holiday Catalog...

Card Details:

Stamps: Pick of the Patch

Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, Basic Black Archival (retired)

Cardstock: Basic Black, Basic White, Them Bones DSP

Accessories: Pick of the Patch Builder Punch, Stylish Shapes Dies, Circle Layering Framelits, (retired), Adhesive Backed Stars (retired), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

This is such an adorable set and the builder punch makes it so easy to stamp your pumpkins then punch!

There are 3 Halloween stamp sets this year. I've not had a chance to play with the other 2 yet but soon! Can you believe that Halloween is about 2 months away?!

This year is flying by so quickly, isn't it?!
