3/6/26 - Alphabet Challenge (W for Wildflower) - Years of Flowers,

Happy Friday and welcome back to Alphabet Challenge. Today is W for Wildflowers and I created a card using some retired Stampin' Up products. The DSP is current in the annual catalog and I paired it up with Years of Flowers. I use the same background layout from THIS CARD I created last year but just turned it horizontally. I also used a pattern paper with direction and just cut the pieces out per dimension below. I hope this gives you some inspiration and please do join us at the challenge and share your creation!

3/5/25 - Cardz 4 Galz #271 Embossing - School Day Thank You card

Hi everyone, welcome back to Cardz for Girlz and this week we are making Embossing (dry/wet) card. I used a die/embossing piece from Stampin' Up to create a subtle stitched background and alternate it the direction so it created a plaid look alike background. It's subtle but also give it a little something. The I stamped the pencil image multiple times and flip it 360 for a background for my sentiment. This card will be used for end of the school year TY card at Hunter's Chinese School. Have a good day!
