TOB April 2026 Challenge

 Hello friends and thanks for stopping by today!

It's time once again for a new monthly challenge over on the
Two Old Bats Halloween Blog!

Just wait until you see what the team has created ... OMG!!  And to help us get our mojo going, Diane (yep, my Old Bat partner) has created this fabulous inspiration board. . .

 

 Here's what I've created for you today . . .

 

 LOL. . . when I saw the mood board Diane so smartly created, 
'Singing in the Rain' instantly came to mind.  

I've used an image I found online and  showcased it by matting it with a very old Spellbinder 'Heirloom Oval' (S4-447) die.  The card base was embossed and my sentiment was computer generated then die cut using a Sue Wilson flag die.

Hope you like it! 

 Just to refresh your memory ... here's a recap of how things are done on our blog.

Monthly Challenge

• Start on the 2nd of the month

April 2026 - First Cup Challenge

 It's time once again for a new challenge over on the First Cup Challenge Blog.

We are excited to be celebrating our 1st Anniversary! 

 Remember to check out the rules for this fun challenge in the TAB under the header over on the First Cup Challenge Blog titled 'But first ... some rules'.

Here's what I came up with for today's card . . .

 

 This Brutus Monroe designer paper created the perfect back drop for my lovely 'Coffee & Tea'  3D Topper by Hearty Crafts.  I just love these 3 dimensional images and they are perfect for the 'LADIES' !  

I spotted a pack of paper doilies hanging on my accessories board and thought it was also a good fit for this image. 

     

 If you haven't yet checked out this challenge owned/hosted by Deanne, you'll want to be sure to pop over and then play along!  I'm sure you have some goodies in your stash to create  with.

Thanks for stopping by and as always . . .

 

 

Four Seasons Challenge - Spring (4/2026)

 Hello Friends

Over at the Four Seasons Challenge Blog, we are enjoying the change in seasons! 
This months theme is:

Anything Goes - Spring

check out this fabulous inspiration board we have created to help inspire you . . .

 

 There's nothing that makes me smile more than spotting my spring flowers popping up out of the ground after a cold, white winter!!  

My beautiful focus image is a 3D Decoupage die cut sheet by Katy Sue Designs called 'Vases of Pansies'.

   

 For the background I've used a panel from the Paper Rose 'Dear Isabella Patterns' 6x6 paper pack.

 Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Double D - Humor

 

Hello Dear Friends!

Here's today's theme:

 

HUMOR

 

 and here's an inspiration board created to help get you started . . .

 

 

 

 

 I bought a few Unity Stamps 'Pissy Kitty' stamp sets last year and thought they would be fun for the 'Humorous' category of my Craft Show sale boxes.  Here's my card using just 1 of the 3 sets I purchased.

 

 

 

I know so many people that this card would fit ... do you??  LOL
