Baby Congrats Card

Good friends of ours had their first grandchild last week, so I made them a card today. These box cards are very easy to make, and I love the 3D projects!!  It does fold flat for mailing.

A Bit More Time To Craft

Crafty Hazelnut Pattern Paper

In other news...

Hi, everyone! I'm sorry I haven't posted hardly any crafts these past couple of months. We have been so busy adding on to the house and renovations, updating flooring, adding a deck, and closing in the fish camp building that I've hardly had time to think. I also packed and put in storage a LOT of stuff to clear out the house some in preparation for moving day on April 4th.  Sadly, we lost our buyer. Her husband had a stroke and is out of work per Dept of Transporation for 12 months before being released to return to his job. (He's a truck driver.) We are very glad though that he is doing well..... so..... After we complete these renovations (hopefully in the next couple of weeks), we will re-list our house again and start the process all over. I'm praying God will provide just the right person and that it will go quickly and smoothly. 

I snuck off to the storage unit to grab basic crafting supplies so I could try to squeeze in some time to craft between renovation and showings. I don't want too much here cluttering up everything.

Hi, crafters! It's time for our weekly challenge over at Always Fun Challenges!

You can create any type of paper project as long as it follows the weekly theme.

Ch# 39 Something New

My Design Team Project

I love this baby afghan I crocheted for friends of ours expecting their first child (a boy)! This yarn is so soft. My husband, Tom, kept teasing saying he wanted to keep it for himself. LOL

Lori Whitlock card cut file
For the tag, I just re-sized it smaller, cut a rectangle out of cardstock, and snipped the corners at an angle to make it look like a tag. Ribbon, twine, and Pumpkin Pie cardstock all Stampin' Up.

Hope to see your project linked up at Always Fun Challenges.

Children are a Gift from God

Hello, Crafters!

My brother became a Grandfather for the first time over the weekend.

Congrats to him and my niece on the birth of her first child, a precious baby girl.

Everyone is doing fine. Wish I could be there to see them in person, but instead I'm mailing my brother, and my niece both a congrats card.

One is a peach version for the new Grandpa, and the pink version for my niece.

Here's the inside of the cards.

I am remembering how much I love stamping. It's been too long since I played with my stamps.

Cardz TV Stamps, Simple Thoughts for the outside sentiment

Cardz TV Stamps, This 'n' That for the inside sentiment

Stampin' Up inks: Calypso Coral, Melon Mambo, Wild Wasabi

Stampin' Up stamp set, Choose Happiness

Gold sequins from stash

Card base 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Black mat 4" x 5 1/4"

White mat (outside) 3 3/4" x 5"

White mate (inside) 3 3/4" 4 3/4"

Both colored card bases are from Recollection packs.

Enjoy your Monday.

See you tomorrow.

Sketches in Thyme Project Life Style Ch# 60

Hi, everyone! 

Here is my take on the sketch. 

I created a 4x6 filler card for my Project Life Scrapbook page. 

Here is the filler card in my Project Life page.

This page is highlighting my daughter, Keri's, 3rd pregnancy. Her first child is 6 years old. She lost her second pregnancy. And in these photos she only has 2 weeks left before the new baby will be here. These photos were taken last October.  I'll do some personal journaling before I move on to the next scrapbooking page.
