Less is More

I am taking a scrap booking break to play over at 'Less Is More'.

Their challenge # 472 is Vellum.

I needed an encouragement/ thinking of you card. 


 Of course I only have fancy vellum. Hahaha

That's all I could find.


 And of course I screwed up the inside...fixed it with a panel.

It was cooler today, so managed to clean the garden shed!

 Talk to ya later!

Stay safe!

Beccy's Place August Challenge

So, I've been stalking Beccy's Place. For years!

She has the greatest tutorials, freebies, etc., so thought I should play along. 

This is for her August Challenge

My mistake was using cardstock that had a bit of a grain.

I did my best!

Then of course I had to schmeer my finger through the sentiment!

I will get there!

Talk to ya later!

Stay safe!

In My Garden

Today I am playing along over at We Love Stamping.

I forgot I had this over zealous, labor intensive stamp!

I think it's only been stamped and colored up one other time.


I want to sit there and relax!

We have company right now, so that won't happen!

HMFMC # 371

 I am playing along with this challenge!

And it really was a challenge for me!

I am not the greatest colorer! I struggle big time.

And my image is embossed with black ink.

So my coloring didn't show up at all; changed to markers, then drug my hand through, in several places........

I had to go on....as I only could find one little piece of the background paper!

OY!


But, someone will get this card, and it will make their day...so there's that!

Christmas Card

 I've made another Christmas card for Christmas Crafts All Year 'Round.

It will also work over at Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge.


This is Dasher. So he must be a reindeer?

Yeah, we're going with that!

And my lighting is terrible, but that's a piece of gold behind the paper with the stripes! Dasher and the sentiment are embossed with gold.

Halloween- August

 It is still hot, hot, hot!

We were promised a week of below 30 degrees Celsius. NOT!

They've changed their minds...we'll only get a day or two. Doesn't matter, Friday evening I'll drag the hoses to the far corners of the yard, and start watering everything!

I played with the Two Old Bats Halloween challenge!

I'm enjoying these challenges.

I volunteer at the Tuck Shop in town, and they will need Halloween cards to sell!

Talk to ya later!

Stay safe, and stay cool!
