Masculine Birthday

Hello everyone,

Today I have a card suitable for the male in your life.  I think you can use this card for any age.

The patterned paper is from Making memories 5th Avenue line paired with some simplye chartreuse.  I added a little zig zag stitched with the sewing machine and stamped the airplane from Fly Away in versamark ink.  The sentiment is from the Make a Wish set stamp in black ink. To finish off the card I destressed the edges.

Thanks for stopping by!

Thankful

Happy Halloween everyone!

We celebrated Halloween yesterday as our town had Trick or Treat yesterday.  Our town never celebrates Halloween on a Sunday.  All the family came over and we had a big dinner and also celebrated my brother's birthday before the kids went out to get all of their goodies. 

I have a Thanksgiving banner to share with you this evening.  It's hard to believe that Thanksgiving will be here in less than a month.

The paper I used for this project is from K & Company. I picked it up at JoAnn's earlier this year.  I just loved the colors and it reminded me of Fall/Thanksgiving.

 I added the pleated medallions behind each letter.  The letters are from Making Memories.

 I added a lace scallop to the back of each panel.

I printed a couple of pictures with a Thanksgiving theme and attached them behind a couple of the letters. 

The little sentiment strip on the top of each panel was created on the computed. I also added some gold glitter around each medallion using my two-way glue pen. 

Well this should do it for Fall/Halloween/Thanksgiving projects.  I will start sharing my Christmas projects with you soon.  Until then, thanks for visiting.

A much overdue project

I know it's been awhile since I've posted a project.  As I explained in my last post, I was pretty busy taken care of the old folk.  Things are getting back to semi normal around here.  Mom goes on Tuesday to get her hand checked, hopefully she'll be able to get the cast off.  She's still walking with a surgical boot on her left foot.  Dad's cataract surgery went well and he can see much better.  Next month he gets his other eye done.

I finally have a card to share with you.  My sister that lives in Florida sent me up some wonderful cardmaking supplies as a thank you for taking care of mom and dad.  So with some of the paper she sent I made a thank you card to send to her.

The paper is from a pack by Making Memories called 5th Avenue.  I paired it up with some simply chartreuse felt using a flower die by PTI.  I added the pearl in the middle which I had in my stash.  The sentiment is from Communique Curves stamped in smokey shadow.  The card base in also smokey shadow.

It has been unbearably hot here and this weekend will be no better, so I plan to stay in my nice air conditioned craft room and get some much needed crafting done.   I hope to share some of those projected with you soon. 

Hugs
