on creating a few more in this sketch. Here is my creation...
And here is the sketch with a link back to the forum.

A Simple Thank You
A clean and simple challenge by Splitcoast Stampers
The challenge is to make a simple Thank You card. I broke out
a new kit for this one it is
I Love Spring by Echo Park.
The orange color used was Pumpkin Pie from Stampin' UP so
was the thank you stamp.
(I am not sure anymore as to what stamp set this
sentiment is from.)
Have a blessed day!

Kindness Matters
Happy Monday! It is a beautiful start to the day here I hope it is for you as well.
I have created a card for Tuesday Morning Sketches using, "I Love Spring" by
Echo Park.
Here is the sketch for you with a link back to the sketch post.
I also broke out some of my punches that I have not touched in a very
long time. Scallop circle by SU and 1 1/2" by paper shapers.
The orange color is Pumpkin Pie.

In the Garden
I went and checked on my Pinterest board for a sketch I would like to do and I
ended up on the one below from
"Got Sketch?".
I love the fact I could use up some random little pieces I had been collecting
while using
If you would like to check out my Pinterest Board for
Card Sketches just follow the link.
Must Have Flowers
My creation for today was the sketch challenge over at Splitcoast Stampers.
Here is the link if you want to take a peek at other beautiful
cards created with this sketch.
I am still working with Carta Bella, "Flower Garden". I had this large piece to use and it worked out to be perfect with this sketch. Love, Love, Love it!

Starburst Background
I have been taking part in some challenges again over at
Splitcoast Stampers. This weeks Technique Lover's Challenge (TLC956) is
Starburst Background and here is a look at my creation...
I used Carta Bella kit, Flower Garden on this card.
Limiting my supplies to just this one kit has helped me with making more cards. Thinking
a little less on Designer Papers is a quick process and all the hard work has been done for you.
Below you will find the YouTube link for the Technique

Have a wonderful Day!

Little Things
Two awesome reasons to enjoy the little things:
First, little things can actually be the most important things in life. Such as a smile from a friend, a hug from your grandchild, the smell of morning coffee brewing.
Second, the little things lead us to practice gratitude for what we have now. Not tomorrow or next year. Now! This makes us happier.
By definition, Happiness is a mental or emotional state of well-being characterized by positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy.
Future or past thoughts can prevent us from seeing and enjoying the now and sometimes we need a little reminder...
"Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things."
Robert Brault
Hello Friends! It has been a very long time since I have shared my creations with you. Today is the day I am starting to share some posts again. I have found a little creative grove that I am enjoying.
Here is my card it may not be grand or bedazzled for it is simple. This creation gave me the reminder I needed that I can do amazing things just by starting out little. A simple card gave me the permission I needed to enjoy the art of card making once again. I do not have to make them grand or reach publication standards to be beautiful. And friends this simple little card has led to more little lovely cards to share with you in the future.
This card was created using, "flower garden" from Carta Bella

I have to say I worked really hard on the page above even if it was a "scraplift challenge" and I thought is was going to be easy peasy.
Nope!
Not!
This page took me two days (YIKES).
Patience won out on this one usually I would have scrapped it (pun intended) and moved on. Now you can find this page in the 👉Popular Gallery Projects This Week.
Hurray for me!👏
