Oldie Moldie Monday

 It is Monday - time to show some love for your old supplies.  I am continuing to work on a project for a nursing home.  I have received many beautiful birthday cards and with the creators permission, I am recycling the cards for a nursing home.  Of course all my cards are feminine so I need to make masculine cards.

For this card I used the March Sheetload of Cards layout.  I just wanted to try one card with the design.  I do like it and will make a few more.  

The paper I used is very well aged but it still made a wonderful birthday card.


Thanks for stopping by.  Remember to show some love for your old supplies.

Oldie Moldie Monday

 It is Monday, time to show some love for your old supplies.  

I made a Christmas card for a challenge in a Facebook group.  The challenge was postage stamps.

On this card I used my postage stamp dies to cut the patterned paper.  The patterned paper is from a very old pad of 6 x 6 paper.

It is Monday - time to show some love for your old supplies.  

On this card I did some recycling - I had saved the image off of a postage stamp purchase.  I thought the image would make a great masculine birthday card.  The navy blue is also recycled.  The die is also an old supply.


 Have fun, use your old supplies, recycle items - make beautiful cards.

It is Monday - time to show some love for your old supplies.

The cut apart was laying on my design table along with the papers I used to complete the card.  It was a lucky find.  I have so many friends who could use a little cheering up.  I am trying to send at least one card a week.  Hopefully more if I have time.

It is Monday, time to show some love for your old supplies.  

I made this card for a sketch challenge in a private facebook group.

I used paper from an old 6 x 6 pad.  I believe the greens for the leaves came out of the scrap bin.

Text Me a Christmas Wish

I have recently been playing with old book pages and trying my hand at doodling.  

The current challenge at Jingle Belles is TEXT.   

I first added a layer of gesso on the page page.  I tried doing the doodle by watercoloring first and then adding the black lines or adding the black lined doodle and then painting with the watercolors. Gold splatters and a red mat finished the card front.  It was added to a kraft card base. 

I asked my card making group on Facebook if they would like receiving a card like this and they said yes - so it is on my list to make a few of these to mail in December 2024.  They are flat also which helps with the mailing cost.  

Thanks for stopping by.

It is Monday - time to who some love for your old supplies.

I was moving a container of paper so I had to peak inside to see what was in there.  I opened up a 6 x 6 pad and the piece of paper with the sentiment on it - talked to me - so I had to make it into a card.

I have one more card made to mail in December.
