Owl Be Home for Christmas

Mornin' y'all, and happy Friday!  Today is Ryan's last day of school before winter break, and he has early release today so I'd best get up and moving with a few things before I have to pick him up.  The hubs brought home two more presents for me to wrap and I have to take the Daphinator out for a walk.  It's a nice sunny day though so that will be fun.

Anyway, I have a card to share today.

I feel like I haven't used Christmas Friends nearly enough this season and it's on the Last Chance List.  I've made cards with the bear and the moose so today it's the owl's turn, along with a punny sentiment.  I used the Sunday Stamps sketch:

I have absolutely been hoarding that jingle bell pattern that I used behind the owl; the Shopping Our Stash challenge to use something you've been hoarding pushed me to finally cut into it for this card.  And I cut into a couple of other patterns as well because I do have a bad hoarding tendency when it comes to patterned paper but for reals, I have a ton.  Maybe literally.

Okay, as soon as I finish my tea I'm taking Daphne out for a tour of the neighborhood.  Cheers!

Regal Strength

Mornin' y'all, how's it going?  I got my two cookie doughs made yesterday and one of them I already know the recipe is not a keeper because I don't want to spend 30 minutes finely chopping up dried cranberries.  So I'll be baking those two doughs today and we'll see if I make the two bar recipes or not.

I have a special card to share today that I made for my friend Krissy, who lost her heart dog last Saturday after he suddenly collapsed.

I usually send her a card a week as part of my routine, but I wanted to send her extra love this week.  I used this week's Atlantic Hearts sketch:

I wasn't sure what I was going to do with the filigree shape on the right until I remembered the Cupcake Inspirations challenge:

Coincidentally, both challenges are on the same number : )  A bow was just the thing I needed for my card.  I knew I had that Pretty Peacock and gold ribbon from last year or the year before (I had never actually opened it, and this is why I rarely buy ribbons anymore) so I actually started my card design with that ribbon and paired it with the Regal Winter DSP since it has Pretty Peacock in it.  And from there the card came together pretty fast.

I also got all my Christmas cards sent off and mailed off one last package yesterday.  All the presents here have been wrapped; there are a couple of things that might not arrive until after Christmas but they'll just be birthday presents instead.  Feeling like I'm ready for the holiday now : )

Cheers!

Jingle Bells Rock

Mornin', y'all.  I'm going to have to type fast as we need to leave in about 10 minutes if I can get Ryan to get moving.  He's started doing this thing lately when he's supposed to be getting ready for school or getting ready for bed where he just dillydallies and wastes time and it's getting very frustrating.  He spent 20 minutes goofing off in the bathroom last night instead of brushing his teeth so he didn't get books.  Ugh.

Anyway, here's my card for today:

I still had the Holly Berry Bouquet DSP on my craft table when I saw this TGIF Challenges sketch:

I had a bunch of 1-inch squares of the holly pattern already cut out, I don't remember why, so I thought they'd be a good starting point for the sketch.  I cut a couple more squares out in the red pattern and found a scrap of Wild Wasabi DSP, then used the retired postage stamp punch to punch out frames for the squares.  The jingle bells image is from Reindeer Fun, I thought it was nice to focus on a smaller image that isn't the reindeer for this card.

That's it for me today, peeps.  I'm off to take Ryan to school and then go mail off our Christmas cards and one package, and go to the store because the hubs asked me to make one batch of cookies for a potluck at work on Friday.  Naturally, I picked out two cookie recipes and possibly two bar recipes because I am who I am.  I'll be mixing up cookie dough this afternoon to bake tomorrow.  Cheers!

Good Tidings Cardinal

Mornin' y'all!  I am happy to report that I got our Christmas letter written last night, and got all the envelopes addressed and stuffed.  Now I just need the postage stamps (they should be arriving today or tomorrow) and those will be out the door.  Might not arrive everywhere before Christmas but that is exactly why my cards always say Happy Holidays.  New Year's is a holiday.  So is MLK Day.  And Valentine's Day, though I've never been *that* late.

Anyway, since I flatly refused to get on the Christmas train before Thanksgiving, I'm still over here playing with Christmas stamps while I still can and most everybody else in blogland has moved on to stuff from the upcoming catties.  But here's what I have for today!

Mixing old and new again today, with Sophisticated Sled for the stamps and Wrapped in Plaid from a few years ago for the DSP.  I was inspired by The Card Concept:

I got the wreath and plaid on my card, but my colors are lighter versions of what's on the inspiration pic.  Next up is the Just Add Ink sketch:

That zigzag made me think of the Basic Borders dies which retired a while back but nobody I send cards to cares what's current vs. what's retired, so I used it.

It's about time to get Ryan off to school and then I will be wrapping presents while he's gone.  Usually I do that on the floor, but this time I'll keep everything up on the dining room table because I don't want Daphne's nose in it : ) I love having a doggo again.  Cheers, y'all!

Merry Christmas 2019

Scrappy Monday, y'all!  And today is a day to celebrate--our master shower is FINALLY operational after 3 months!!!  The hubs and the kid tried it out last night and I took a shower in there this morning.  So glad to have our entire bathroom back!  Daphne was a bit confused about the whole thing as the shower was torn up well before we adopted her.  Once she saw the water turned on, she decided that she wanted nothing to do with that and noped out : )

Anyway, I have a couple of scrapbook layouts to share from 2019, so here they are:

AAAAACCCKKK Ryan is such a cutie.  This Christmas was in North Carolina and my parents came out to spend Christmas with us.  Of course almost everything under the tree was for Ryan and he loved opening up all the presents.  In fact, he would offer to "help" everyone else open up theirs too!

I love the side-eye from Ryan in that smallest picture on the left page.  And I love the fun patterned paper I chose for this, high energy for our high energy kiddo.

Today's festive color palette:  Real Red, Pear Pizzazz, Mossy Meadow, Pacific Point, and Whisper White.  I rather miss Pear Pizzazz or Certainly Celery, I would trade out Soft Sea Foam for one of those colors in a heartbeat.

Gotta get Ryan to school, this is his last week before winter break.  Cheers!

Cozy Rosy Christmas

Good AFTERNOON, y'all, I got a late start today : )  We're going to do game night tonight with friends and I volunteered to provide dessert, so I'm baking some things for that and my house smells like gingerbread, at least the downstairs does, which is much better than it smelling like the sealer the hubs used on the floor of our shower.  The hubs has finished sealing it (I think) and so now we just need to reinstall the glass wall and door and then we can USE that shower for the first time in three months.

Anyway, here is today's card:

I started with the inspiration challenge from Hand Stamped Sentiments:

I zeroed in immediately on the center picture, the pitcher with the roses and pine cones, which made me think of the Holly Berry Bouquet DSP.  And then I got stuck until I looked through some old sketches from Freshly Made Sketches and came across this one:

And then my card came together pretty quickly.  I'm a little too late to enter this at Retro Rubber but I'm mentioning it anyway:

This time I did the diagonal, with dies - greenery - ribbon.  I am continuing my trend of using older retired stamps:  Cozy Christmas (the greeting) is 9 years old, and To a Wild Rose is 5 years old, so both retro.  And of course my DSP is retro too : ) and so is the ribbon.  Just retro all around.

That's it for me today, peeps.  I need to frost the gingerbread bars and bake the Oreo cheesecake cookie dough that I made this morning before I took Daphne out for a walk.  Cheers!

Blue Christmas

Happy Friday, y'all!  Ryan is off school today except for some 10-minute test thing he has to do 15 minutes from now, and once that's done we're going to take Daph-Daph for a walk and then get packages ready to ship out.

But first, I have a card!

Okay for reals, I spent like two days in my craft room just staring at stuff and trying to come up with something for a couple of challenges, and this is where I ended up for the Festive Friday challenge:

I did silver, blue, shimmery jewels, and birds.  I was going through my DSP looking for something blue and came up with that piece with blue *and* birds, so that's where I started.

Okay, we've got to get Ryan out the door ASAP so that's it for me.  Cheers!

Sketched Christmas

Mornin' y'all!  For some reason lately I have been in a place of retired stamps so I broke out an old set for today's card:

The main four images are from Season's Sketches, which I want to say I got in my first year or two as a stamper.  The greeting is from a past Paper Pumpkin kit.  Anywha, Season's Sketches was the first thing to pop into my head when I saw the last Freshly Made Sketch of the year:

And paired it with the Color Throwdown:

I used Melon Mambo, gold embossing powder, and Garden Green for my colors, and continued the retired theme by using Watercolor Wonder Crayons to color in the images after I embossed them with gold powder.  A couple of gold glitter dots and done.

Time to get Ryan off to school and then I have multiple errands to run today and Kohl's cash to spend ; )  Cheers!

Love & Holly

Hey y'all!  We've got the contractors here again today to do the grout and caulking on our shower and we MIGHT actually get to USE IT by this weekend!  I'm very excited after 3 months of going down the hall to Ryan's bathroom.  Daphne will be excited when it's done too because she gets locked in her crate while the contractors are here.  She gets stressed out with them coming and going so it's easier for everyone if she's in doggo jail.

I've got a festive card to share today.

I'm mixing old and new on this one, with some super-old Brushed Gold cardstock, a stamp set from 2021, and this year's Regal Winter suite.  First off is the Atlantic Hearts sketch:

I tried to stick pretty close to the sketch.  Next is the Paper Players color challenge:

Cherry Cobbler and Pretty Peacock are both in the Regal Winter DSP so I started there and added gold accents.  Last up today is the Retro Rubber tic-tac-toe challenge:

I went diagonal from the top right with dies - greenery - twine.  I thought for a minute that I was trying to go down the right and had missed doing woodgrain, ha!  As I said before, Christmas Season is 3 years old.  My Brushed Gold cardstock is probably over 15 years old so it's super retro.

Have a great day, peeps!

Peppermint Latte

Mornin' y'all!  The hubs and the kid are on a two-hour delay today thanks to all the snow we got yesterday, several inches worth.  I'm hoping that I'll be able to go to the store later today or else Taco Tuesday will have to be postponed and I would have a deeply unhappy kid.  And also I'm out of almond milk for my tea so yep we're heading into emergency grocery territory ; )

With all the snow outside I felt the need to make a nice cozy card to share today, behold!

Latte Love and the coordinating dies are on the Last Chance list for a huge discount so don't miss out on that if you haven't bought it already (I think most of us bought it already, ha!).  Anyway, I started with the Just Add Ink inspiration challenge:

I was inspired by the cozy feel, and how the pic is mainly white with some red and brown, and of course that big mug sitting in the foreground.  Confession time:  I don't drink coffee, and also I don't like peppermint (or mint of any kind), but almost all of my friends do and that's why I own the Latte Love suite : )  And I thought my card needed a bit more red on it so I used the peppermint accents.

Check out the sketch from AAA Cards Challenge:

It was a fun sketch, I enjoyed playing with it.

And finally, check out this glamour shot of Daphne in the snow yesterday:

If I hadn't already ordered our photo Christmas cards this would have been great to put on them.  She loves to play in the snow : )  I did use a pic of Daphne and Ryan together and those cards should arrive tomorrow, so I need to write my Christmas letter.

That's it for me today, peeps.  Stay cozy and I'll see you later!

December 2019

Scrappy Monday!  Right before we had to get Ryan out the door to go to school, it started snowing, and two hours later, it's still coming down.  I'm still debating if I want to take Daphers out for a walk or not.  I mean, I'm all snug in the house and I have...oop, HAD...a cup of tea and I can make another one.  Decisions!

Also we have two guys working on putting the tile in our shower!  We might get to use our own shower by the end of the week for the first time in three months!!!!!  More exclamation points!!!!!!  Very exciting.

Okay, time for a scrapbook layout.

I loooooove that DSP with the snowflakes!  And it color matched that quilt that Ryan and the hubs are under on the left page perfectly.  This is another of my catch-all monthly layouts and I can't believe how much Ryan has grown since then.  My little boy is not so little anymore.

Today's color palette:  Pear Pizzazz, Pacific Point, Shaded Spruce, Balmy Blue, and Whisper White.

That's it for me today, peeps.  Think I might take Daphne out to enjoy the snow (she's stressed out with the guys here working) and then have another cuppa.  Cheers!

Gummy Bear Congratulations

Hey y'all, how's your Sunday going?  I made cranberry cardamom spice muffins for breakfast and I'm chillin' with Daphne in the living room.  Gotta take our girl for a walk after I finish writing this.

So we went to a ceremony yesterday for our friend Missy and I got her a present, a royal purple fleece blanket with gummy bears all over it (she loves gummy bears).  So naturally I needed a congratulations card to go with it.

I kept thinking the name of the stamp set with the gummy bears in it was Jar of Sweets and yet I couldn't find it on my stamp shelves (and I am *highly* organized) so finally I had to do a search on the blog and it turns out that Jar of Sweets is the name of the die set, Sweetest Thing is the stamp set, and How Sweet It Is is the DSP.  I used all three on my card, that DSP makes it so easy to cut out a cute jar (or two) of candy; the sentiment on the front is from Sweet Essentials and I used Sweetest Thing on the inside of the card.  Here's the As You See It sketch I used:

And here's the inside of the card:

Forgot to take a picture of it before I wrote in it but I wanted to share the gummy bears on the inside of the card.

Okay, Daph has been very patient so I'm going to take her out.  Cheers, y'all!

Freezin' Season

Mornin' y'all and happy Friday!  Ryan gets to do jammy day at his school and yet he still wants to argue about *which* set of jammies to wear.  *Insert eye roll here* As soon as he's off to school in his fleece jams, the hubs and I are going out to run errands.  The tile for our shower floor has FINALLY arrived so we might possibly, just maybe, be getting our shower finished next week after three months.

But for right now, a card!

Freezin' Fun is from a couple of years ago but I just recently acquired it and I really should stay off the BST groups.  Anyway, this is the first time I've gotten to use it : )  Here's the challenge from CAS Colours & Sketches:

I decided to be extra and choose a color challenge *and* a sketch:

I tried coloring in the baby seal with Stampin' Blends, but he was too dark so I stamped him a second time with Pebbled Path ink and Versamark, then embossed with clear EP so my watercoloring wouldn't run.  I know the sketch has the sentiment on the strip going across, but I was afraid it wouldn't show up enough so I did it on the card front itself.  Minor sketch modification to suit the DSP I chose.  I've had Winter Meadow since last year but it's just lately that I've been really wanting to use it a lot.

Okay, time to get Ryan off to school and then go pick up our tile.  Cheers!

A Friend Like You

Mornin' y'all!  I got up early today to do my workout and who comes down the stairs at 5:30?  Ryan.  He's going to be tired tonight!  He had a dream and couldn't get back to sleep.

Anyway, on to today's card:

The colors are a little off in the picture, but the sun was already going down by the time I finished this card so it was the best I could do.  Check out the latest from Freshly Made Sketches:

And the Color Throwdown:

I went back and forth between Old Olive and Mossy Meadow for the green, and in the end I used both colors to color in the greenery swags; Real Red for the red, and I thought the light Crumb Cake pattern from the Nests of Winter DSP made a nice match for the cream. 

At first I wanted to use one of the bird images from Winterly Tree Tops, but I liked a sample in the mini catalog with just the greenery swags and a sentiment in the middle so I did that instead.  I really had to dig to find a die that was long and skinny enough for that sentiment, it's from the Seasonal Labels dies from a couple of years ago.  I had to do the sentiment twice; the first time, I stamped it in Versamark and poured embossing powder on, and wondered why the white wasn't showing up on the Old Olive cardstock very well.  Then I heated it up and realized I'd gotten the clear EP instead of white : ) so I did it again with the correct powder.

That's it for me today, peeps.  Gotta get Ryan off to school, take Daphers for a walk, and run some errands.  Cheers!

You Two, Deer

Mornin' y'all!  I just ate the last of the pumpkin pie for breakfast (it has...vitamin A?) so after I write this blog post I need to take Daphne for a walk.  She's been giving me judgmental looks.  Typing is a little bit of a challenge as I managed to give myself a paper cut on the tip of my left index finger...trying to grab a sweetener packet for my tea.  Tea shouldn't hurt, y'all.  At least it's quit bleeding.

Anyway, this week's Paper Players challenge is a fun and different take on seasonal cards:

So here's what I made:

That Winter Meadow DSP is definitely doing the heavy lifting here, but I thought of it immediately when I saw the Inkspirational mood board challenge:

No deer in the mood board, but the colors match--I had to do green for that green sprig in the lower left (and also I don't like doing cards that are ALLLLL neutrals).

But I didn't stop there.  Ann Schach talked in her post about how much she likes revisiting old favorite stamp sets and that made me think of one I got in the first year or two after I started stamping, so I had to dig it out and make a second card:

Reindeer Print has probably been in my collection for around 20 years and I enjoyed getting it out again for this challenge.  It's also a challenge to get a big stamp like that inked up all the way, so I stamped it 3-4 times to get good coverage.  Then it was taking a long time to dry (I smeared the first one I did so I had to stamp it again) so I covered it with clear embossing powder.  I kept the same Winter Meadow DSP for this one but more colorful patterns.

I'm also entering these at Shopping Our Stash, where they want to see winter cards that aren't Christmas, and Critter Crazy Challenges, where it's anything goes featuring a critter.  Last week when my parents were here, we spent some time in Manitou Springs and ate lunch.  We were sitting inside the restaurant next to a big window that looks out onto the patio, which has tables they use when it's warmer weather.  While we were sitting there, two deer came dashing through the patio not 10 feet from where we were sitting!  They dodged the tables and hopped the 4-foot wall at the end of the patio with no visible effort.  I'm glad there were two because I said something when I saw the first one and everyone else looked in time to see the second one.

Okay, Daph has escalated to barking at me so I definitely need to take her for a walk and get some energy out.  Cheers, y'all!

SUO Challenges: SHINY!

Hey hey, happy Tuesday!  Yesterday did not go to plan...less than 30 minutes after I dropped Ryan off at school, I got a call from the school nurse that he was throwing up.  So I went back and got him and then we both took a nice long nap and I only did one load of laundry yesterday.  But he's feeling better now so hopefully we can get things done today!

And first up is a new challenge from SUO Challenges!

Here's our month-long challenge to end out the year:

I recently bought a pack of In Color Glimmer Paper just with this challenge in mind, so here's what I made:

All of the newest In Colors appear in the Unbounded Beauty DSP so that was an easy pair to make with the glimmer paper.  I started out with the pink version:

This card started with the Inspired By... challenge:

That's why I chose Pretty in Pink as the main color, with some red and a gingerbread man.  I had forgotten the peppermint swirls in the inspo pic when I made my card, but I chose those accents anyway so it works!

One glittery card just was not enough so I had to make a purple version:

I used Petunia Pop and a little bit of Shy Shamrock for this one.

Okay, it's time for me to get the kiddo off to school and he said his tum is much better so I'll be able to do more laundry (yay?) and go grocery shopping.  Don't forget to add your card to the SUO Challenges blog.  Cheers!
