6/1/26 - Moving Along With Times #190 Favorite / A Place To Start (ATG - No Card) - Treat Holders!

Happy Monday! I have a double challenge for this project I am sharing today. Moving Along with Time (Favorite) & A Place to Start (ATG - no cards). I am so happy that the Triple Banner Punch got carryover into the new catalog. I am a sucker for punches and currently I love this one because it's so easy to create sentiments for quick projects. I needed to create some quick Thank You gifts for teacher appreciation week at school, so I used this quick tutorial and paired it with the punch to create these fun pouches to hold treats. The teachers can just grab them and be on their way! I hope you enjoyed this project I am sharing today and be sure to join us at the challenge,

First day of June and today at Make My Monday we are making Embossing card and I used a very subtle die to create a background for the inside of my card. I also created a fun Flap Gate fold card. I cut it at 2 3/4" to the bind of the card and use the piece I cut out for the flap - this is such an easy to just to make your card fun. I also picked the 2026-2028 In-Colors as the theme to pair it with Friendly Foliage. I hope you enjoyed this simple card and join us at the challenge.

5/20/26 - Pick 3 Challenge #5 - Blue Tone Card!

Happy Hump Day! Today's card is shared with Pick 3 Challenge and I used Blue/Plaid/Birthday for today's creation. I used a really fun Stack & Shuffle technique (Terri Gaines), but of course you can just create one card, like I did here. I used different shades of blue and pattern paper for this, mostly retired as you can see, but this card would be perfect for someone like me - who just LOVE blues! I hope you enjoyed this card I am sharing today and be sure to join us at the challenge.
