Another squirrel card

Here's another CAS card using a squirrel image from Whimsy Stamps Bundles of Hugs stamp set.  Doesn't this little guy look warm and cozy in his classy scarf?

 

Instead of stamping and coloring directly on the white card base, which markers sometimes bleed through, I stamped the image several times on various colored scraps, fussy cut, paper pieced and then glued the image on the card.

I'll be submitting this card to:Fab n Funky Challenge #428 - Keep It Simple; Krafty Chicks Challenge #529 - CAS; QKR Stampede Challenge #404 - AG; Scribbles Design Challenge #93 - Feature a Creature;   A Bit More Time to Craft Challenge #126 - AG; 2 Crafty Critter Crazies Challenge #43 - AG with a critter; Crafty Catz Weekly Challenge #523-AG; Pammie's Inkie Pinkies Challenge #2041 - AG; The Library Challenge #69 - What to Look For in Autumn; AAA CAS Card Challenge Game #176 - One Corner and optional twist cozy

Joyful Stars Close to My Heart February 2020 Blog Hop

Welcome to the February 2020

Close to My Heart Joyful Stars Blog Hop.

Have some fun hopping between the blogs of this group of talented Close to My Heart consultants, and me, where we share creative projects. 

I recently came across a You Tube card tutorial.  It said it was a "gorgeous fun fold that will change your life".   Of course I had to try it.  It's a nice fancy fold, although I doubt it will change my life.

But who knows?

 

The CTMH paper I used is called Spruced Up.

The stamps are from the February Stamp of the Month. 

Now, since this is a blog hop,

you might have arrived here from  Nancy Brown's blog.

Your next stop is Joyce Houck's blog.

The hop is circular.

If you are just starting here,

simply continue hopping until you find your way back,

making the full circle.

Here's the link to "the gorgeous fun fold card that will change your life".

Red Hat Card Class 8/21/17

Seven gals from our Red Hat group gathered to make cards yesterday.  I always prepare 4 cards for the girls to make.

At our last class, a few girls had requested an engagement or wedding card.  We made this one first while everyone's hands were clean.  A few girls left off the silhouette and just made a basically white on white card, stamping the center of the flower with "Have a happy day!".

Die cuts are from DieVersion

I had also promised the girls a masculine card.

Colored digi is from Fred She Said

And we made a more feminine card.

The last card we made was a waterfall card, which everyone loved.
