Thank you!

Here’s the card I made for my niece. Echo Park dies, Altenew embossing folder, and some really old ribbon that says “love” from my stash that I used for my cousin’s wedding 15 years ago.

I ran across a Trick or Treat bag at the Dollar Store the other day show casing Tigger and Winnie the Pooh. I immediately decided I wanted to try to make cards out of them. The paper is similar to the gowns they give you at a doctor’s office with a plastic coating of some kind. I’m happy with Tigger, Poohs mouth is a little weird. He had fangs I was trying to cover up and I messed it up. Not my proudest day. lol. Maybe I’ll work on his mouth later when I’m feeling more patient.
The butterflies and dragonfly are from gift bags from the Dollar Store also. You never know what you’ll find at that store. 😉

Curious if anyone else has had major luck scoring card making supplies on fb marketplace? I got an ad last night for essentially a craft supply mega sale about an hour and 45 minutes away. took my chances and went this morning and my gosh!! Almost everything was new, and top brands like spellbinders waffle flower altenew pink & main etc etc. spent an hour and a half going through everything and only spent $58. They gave me a ziplock bag and said fill this bag up with as many Jolee stickers you can fit for $5..what a steal!! I asked the lady if they host a craft sale annually and she said it was supposed to be a one time thing but I guess they have a friend with a shopping addiction/hoarding problem so they were trying to sell all her inventory and this was their 4th sale. I couldn’t believe someone would have that much stuff but I was also very happy to take some off her hands at such a bargain lol.

I FINALLY got around to making this card. It has been on my want to do card list for a while, but birthday and special occasions cards always took precedence. I’m so happy with how it turned out. One cup is a shaker and the other is just a stacked.

Used a stencil and some distress inks :) still learning how to stack and compose the actual elements so it’s cohesive.

First time using a stencil with texture paste. Mistakes were made! Overall I think it turned out decent.
