Timeless Tuesday Weds.....It's Summer

Well TT's challenge is to  make it summer time and that's a stretch around here the past few days...rain rain go away come again another day...like a month from now. Anyway I used the swimming-jump in a puddle kids from Sweet Days of Summer set. I can hardly wait until we can go to the pool and enjoy those sweet summer days. YES!! Very simple card with a bit of matting and just stamped in Denim colored ink and added the sheer ribbon which was requested. Used an embossing edged folder from SU, added some glitter to the splash that seems to be flying and I'm done. Easy peasy card.
Hope you are all doing well and maybe even missed me as I haven't been posting that much. Doing cards for the hospital and keeping busy that way. Take care and see you next time.

Timeless Tuesday...go green

Well to me to go green is to cheer for Michigan State or here locally the Rams of Catholic Central High School where my darling grandson Cal goes. But I'll leave them out of this for now and just do as asked and go green. I used a SU embossing folder to create my background and realized after it was put together that I had glued everything to the wrong side so instead of my embossing being up from the paper it's down...oh well! Simple card with just the folder, a die cut, two punches and the little phrase "hello" from one of Flourishes sets that has a bunch of little phrases and yep I'm bad cause I never know the name of the set so excuse me paleeze. Add a bit of green ribbon and a wee stone and it's fini. Hope you are all well. We are supposed to get up to 68 by Thursday. WOW !!! Spring is coming and I couldn't be happier. Take care fellow bloggers and see you again soon.

Timeless Tuesday...bee you a bee or butterfly??

Well today's challenge at TT is to use a bee or butterfly on your card. As you can see I did the butterfly. I'm a bit off as usual as being the corny lady that I am, I thought this flower was an astor not a cone flower so coney me colored it to match the paper and so there! I guess I made an ass-tor out of myself because who ever saw a blueish astor or cone flower??? My card has the top section done with a sweet My Mind's Eye dotted paper of kind of aqua blue and the bottom was fancy doodled up with a SU embossing folder to give it that lacy look. My butterfly was a punch also from SU...me Bad I know but the cone flower is a Flourish stamp from the With Gratitude set so I'm safe I guess. Used my colored pencils as usual and made it all very simple. I bet you're asking how I did such a beautiful cutting job aren't you? Well my DD has the new wonderful machine that does all that glorious work for you and when I spotted it laying on the table ...I did a grab and run thingy. Not grab and run machine but just the cut out flower. The new machine is called a Sillouette ( I don't think I spelled that right but you get the idea) and you need to see more about it on the shop at Flourishes. Go take a peek and you'll probably be hooked.
Still hot here in the Big Sky country and I'm a little sick of it. We are to get a storm tonight for a cool off so I'm hoping the weather guy isn't blowing smoke up our butts. Have a fun week fellow bloggers.
