7/21/25 - Atlantic Hearts Sketch #639 - Joy of Jar with Jar Punch

Today at Atlantic Hearts Sketch, I made a Dutch Door fun fold card that resemble the sketch that we have today! I cut the cardstock at 2 ¾” and then another cut to the bind of the card and use the cut out piece and adhered it in front of the card. Do you wanna know why my sentiment is on the left-hand side?! It’s because I smear the snowflakes so I have to hide it with my sentiment. (haha) The stamp set is from the new Joy of Jar, which coordinates with the Jar Punch! I hope you like this card I am sharing today and be sure to join us at the challenge.

7/18/25 - Color Dare Challenge #661 + Darling Cardmaker (No Dies/Stamps) - Daisy with 2024-2026 In-Colors

Happy Friday and Happy Birthday to me!! On my birthday today, I am sharing a very simple and cute daisy card using just stripes of DSP and punch! The color from the pictures made me select Shy Shamrock and Pretty in Pink, both are from the 2024-2026 In-Colors selection. Some card just don’t need the sentiments (stamps) so this is one of those for sure! I punch out some daisy and layer them together. It’s hard to see but I also added some Wink a Stella in the middle of the daisy. Hope you enjoyed this card I am sharing today and remember to join us at both challenges,
