I need to make several Thank You cards. My mom passed away about a month ago, and there are so many people who have sent cards, brought meals, brought food for the pot luck after the memorial and many other acts of kindness. This is a CAS card. Just white card stock with SU! dsp and a popped up main image panel. The flower stamp is from "Remarkable You". My mother's favorite color was purple.

Today's Clean and Simple Challenge on Splitcoast Stampers was to make a CAS card with a pumpkin on it. I love this single stamp from Stampin' Up! It's called "Halloween Happiness" and so easy to make a simple card with it. I used a white card base with SU! dsp on it. The stamped panel is framed with Rich Razzleberry and popped up. Very simple, very easy.

I made this card for the Featured Stamper Challenge on Splitcoast Stampers. The card I CASED can be found <a href="http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/2618920?&cat=500&ppuser=246215&perpage=96&thumbsonly=0">here</a>. Ann has a wonderful gallery and when she does Clean and Simple cards, they really are clean and simple (looking)! I love it. The stamps I used are retired. I used Blooming Beautiful and Short & Sweet. I'll never get rid of those, especially Short & Sweet. It has just the right sentiment for every occasion. I used 120# White card sock and Rich Razzleberry card stock. I colored with Copics and popped up the framed panel. I need a bunch of thank you cards, so I might use this design. Thanks for stopping by!

The Clean and Simple Challenge for this week is to use the theme, "Back to School". This weekend I went to Hobby Lobby and found a bunch of Stampability Stamps at 50% off. This stamp is called, "Olivia", thus the title. I used a Scrap Kit from Stampin' Up! for the DP. I think it was called, "For the Record". The houndstooth background with the cursive lettering made this a very simple card. I added the apple punched with a Martha Stewart punch.

My grand daughter and I got together and made two cards, almost exactly the same. We decided to do the Featured Stamper Challenge. Today's stamper was Maria. She has a cute gallery with lots of whimsical cards. Anna and I chose Maria's "Bee Happy" card which can be found here: <a href="http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showgallery.php?ppuser=289516&cat=500">Maria's Gallery</a> Anna was excited to make her card and mail it, so I only got to photograph mine. Hers is already gone out in the mail! We cut out the bees by hand, the flowers and leaves were "Secret Garden" Thinlits. I got everything crooked on this one because we were almost in a race to get them done! That's OK, it's homemade!

The Free 4 All Challenge was to make a birthday card for ourselves, one we might like to receive. I like this little cupcake fairy from Penny Black. It's fun to color and it's so cute. The papers and markers are from Stampin' Up! I used the "Hello You" Thinlits for the "happy" which is cut from Silver Glimmer paper. Well, I may not be back for a couple of days, but I did challenges for this week, and I'm kind of proud of myself.

Two days in a row? What's gotten into me? LOL! I did another challenge card. This is for the Ways to use It Challenge which is to make a card that shows your favorite season. Mine is Christmas Season! I guess you could just say winter, but that's not what I'm crazy about. I just love the hustle and bustle around the holidays the most. The image here was stamped off and sent to me for my birthday last May. It gives me a bit of a chuckle! The card stock is from Paper Temptress and is called Red Pepper Columns. I don't think you can see the lines (columns) in this picture. I also used an SU In-Color Green and SU's holiday DSP. I pulled out an old Sizzlit for the holly and berries.

I have foster kids who keep me pretty busy, and I was taking care of my mom who had Alzheimer's Dementia. I took care of her for six years. She just passed away on August 10, 2015; she was 100 years old. I miss her, but I do have a little more time. I'm getting back into stamping, and I've done the last three challenges that I used to do: Clean and Simple, Color Challenge, and Sketch Challenge. I'm starting back into blogging with the Sketch Challenge card.

I have a tremor that is worse some days than others. Today, I was shaking quite a bit, but I still got this card done. I used this year's In-Color, Watermelon, for the base card. I also used the matching envelope paper for the envelope and the striped panel. The stamp set is an old Stampin' Up set, "Asian Artistry". I also stamped and cut out the Panda Bear from Stampabilities. They went together nicely. I popped up that bear with double Dimensionals. Thanks so much for stopping by!

The Twisted Sistahs Challenge for February 14th was to make a Monochromatic card in blues or greens with at least three layers and use a punch. I used the punch that corresponds to the Petite Petals set. I embossed the little flowers to give them more dimension. I used Pool Party, Soft Sky and white card stocks and Pool Party Ink for the flowers. I also used some SU! DSP with those colors along with some Pool Party ruffled ribbon. This card was added to the Favorites Forum on Splitcoast Stampers last Sunday. I'm so honored! Thanks for stopping by!

This week's Twisted Sistahs Challenge was presented by Irishgreensue. Greenie asked us to make a card for a friend with a coffee theme. I used "Morning Cup" (SU) for the stamp set. I stamped the image on a die cut piece that I did some paper piercing on. I colored the images with markers. I used Washi tape for embellishment. The card stocks are white, Crumb Cake and Coastal Cabana.

I'm back! I've been busy with foster children and taking care of my mom. I finally found the time to make a card and get it posted. This one is for two challenges. First, the Twisted Sistahs Challenge is to use a heart or "Love" on a card. This has hearts! The challenge for the Stampin' Up! Late Night Stampers (Yahoo Group) is to use dies or Framelits. I used the Hearts and Brackets die. The small hearts were punched with the small heart punch. I used the Red Glitter Paper for those hearts. The dsp is from a DSP Tablet. The stamp set used is Wacky Wishes. Don't you love Clean and Simple cards!!

Sillyfilly presented last Friday's Twisted Sistahs Challenge, and she made it really easy. She just asked us to make our card a Christmas card. If you'd like to join us, just use TSC1004 in your key words. I used "Santa's List" single stamp and embossed with red EP. The sentiment was stamped with Real Red Ink and reads, "He's making a list and checking it twice." Inside, it says, "Hope you're nice!" Thanks for stopping by!

Our Twisted Sistahs Challenge for September 27th was presented by Tater, and we were to have leaves on our cards. The leaves were supposed to be the focal point, too. I used up some of my retired stuff. I used the envelope liner die to line the envelope to match the card. I used dies that coordinated with the stamps for the leaves.

Our Twisted Sistahs Challenge for September 20th was presented by JDfromPAUSA. Jill asked us to use inchies on our cards. I punched 3 one inch squares from the scrap CS and rounded the corners. Then, I punched four 3/8" circles for each square. I raised each circle up on a piece of a Dimensional. The whole "Lego" is popped up, too. Prior to adding the "Legos" I had scored the bottom of the card with 3 lines on the Score Board. Fun challenge! Thanks for stopping by!

The Twisted Sistahs Challenge for September 13th was presented by Irishgreensue. Greenie asked us to follow a <a href="http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/attachments/everyday-chit-chat-f10/281145d1378487341-my-cards-1314_opt.jpg">sketch</a>. Since it was Friday the 13th, I thought a Halloween theme would be fun. The stamped panel is on an Action Wobble and the circle has an 18 year old sticker on it! Thanks for stopping by!

The Twisted Sistahs Challenge for September 6th was to have SPARKLING snow on our cards. You can't SPARKLE mush more than Glimmer Paper.
I'm going to try to post about once a week or whenever I make a new card. With the foster children keeping me running and my 98 year old mom to care for, I just don't seem to find the time to get online as much anymore.

I just made this card because I wanted to make a Halloween card. LOL! I also wanted to use an Action Wobble. I love those things. The Jack-o-lantern wiggles and wobbles if you flick it. The dp came from my stash and I don't know where I got it. The bat punch is from Martha Stewart, and everything else is from Stampin' Up!

Heartsong47 presented the Twisted Sistas Challenge for August 30th. Jan asked us to either make a masculine card or a fall card. Believe it or not, this is my version of a masculine card.

Sillyfilly gave the challenge to the Twisted Sistahs for August 23rd. Silvia asked us to make a card using water coloring.

I finally made another card. My foster kids are just keeping me so busy! I'm also crocheting again, but the project is taking forever. I'll take a photo and post it when I get it done. As far as this card goes, it's for the Twisted Sistahs Challenge which was presented by JDfromPAUSA. Jill asked us to make a card using some of our old supplies that have been taking up space or an old stamp that has either never been used or not used in a long time. "Sincere Salutations" was the first set I bought from SU! I used the birthday greeting because this card will go to one of my grand daughters who asked me to give her another hand made card. I'm late though. I'm late for EVERYONE's birthday this year! I'm old and have too many grandchildren, I guess! LOL! Anyway, besides using an old stamp set, I also used some Cherry Blossom dp that has been around a while. I used the new Pansy Punch from SU! to punch out some flowers which I colored to look like the ones in the dp.

Yes, I'm very late for the Twisted Sistahs Challenge from July 12th, but I had everything ready to put together a week and a half ago but never found the time until today. The challenge was to CASE a friend. I CASEd WannaBcre8ive who we lovingly call "Shirt" (short for Shirley). She was so very kind to have three of us Twisted ones at her house for three days. What hospitality!! Anyway, I was inspired by <a href="http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/2279629?&cat=500&ppuser=78347">this card</a>.
I didn't have that pretty EF and I left off the scalloped layer. I also used a die cut poinsettia instead of a stamped image and put the greeting inside.

The Twisted Sistahs Challenge for July 5th was presented by Sillyfilly. Sylvia asked us to make a card with a rectangle, an oval, ribbon and a dog or a cat on it. I used Stampabilities' Snoopy stamp for my dog and Basic Black grosgrain ribbon on my rectangle. I used the Ovals Framelits from SU! for the black and white ovals. I used Real Red for the base card and a red plaid dp for the rectangle. There's a sentiment panel which says, "Thinking of You", but I took the photo before it was added. I have no time for retakes!

I used the sketch from last Wednesday, July 3rd, for this one. I made mine a long card in order to be able to send a bookmark to my grand daughter. The stamp is a House Mouse stamp called "Make a Wish". I used retired SU! DSP for the vertical banners and White and Bashful Blue for the card and mats.
