5/14/2024 - Cardz 4 Guyz #347 Stripes/Stars - Suite & Tie Happy Birthday Card

Hi everyone – welcome back to another bi-weekly challenge here at Cardz 4 Guyz and this week’s theme is Stripes/Stars! I pulled out this really fun DSP and bundle from few years ago called Suite & Ties for this challenge. I used the DSP that has stripes on it and use the dies to cut out the tie shape and adhered onto a coordinating DSP. To finish the card I added a sentiment and black twine! The only thing that’s not retired on this card is the color – Night of Navy! Thanks for stopping by and be sure to join us at the challenge.

5/13/24 - Atlantic Hearts Sketch #577 - Latte Love Bundle

Hi crafters, today’s card is with Atlantic Heart Sketch. I missed my last challenge so I was happy to create again with them. I used the sketch and paired it with Latt3 Love Bundle (w/out the dies, it’s on the way to me) for this fun sketch. As you can see, you don’t need the die to create a coffee mug card, There is a side of DSP with all the mugs and I just cut them out with my scissor. I stamped some coffee beans with Lost Lagoon for a tone on tone effects. Thanks for stopping by and remember to join us at the challenge.

5/8/24 - Freshly Made Sketch #635 / Double D (Floral) - Big Hugs with Lavender

Happy Hump Day! This week is off week with DT posting so I can join some fun challenges to create for my own pleasure. Today’s card is using Freshly Made Sketch with Double D (floral for mom). Jennifer Timko is one of my favorite crafter from when she was still using SU products so I always love her videos and style so my card is kind of CASEing her card for inspiration. I used the Perennial Lavender for this and used the color scheme from the images provided by Double D. The card turns out to be a great one! Thanks for stopping by!

5/3/24 - My Time To Craft #533 Mother's Day/Friendship - Latte Love - Let's Catch up.

Happy Friday! I am the hostess today at My Time To Craft and this week we are making Mother’s Day / Friendship card! I have a friend who I haven’t seen for a long time from California so I though I should send her a card just to let her know I am thinking about her and that we should chat on the phone! I used the Latte Love stamp set for the sentiment while I am waiting for my coordinating dies to arrive. I cut out a coffee mug by scissor and adhered it onto a cardstock with ribbon underneath. This is such a wonderful bundle for any coffee lover like myself so I hope you will check it out. Have a great weekend and remember to join us at the challenge.
