CC&S #307



Hello! It's the 1st Tuesday in February and that means a new hostess (ME) and a new challenge at CC&S. I chose colors that lend themselves to Valentine cards, as the day is quickly approaching. While I don't send out many Valentine cards myself, I do sell plenty at work and the couple shops I have cards in. I"m looking forward to seeing what everyone comes up with. I love being inspired by all of you. Thanks for visiting.

CC&S #306

Hello! I'm back for our double challenge. I struggled some with this ketch , but I think it worked out in the end. I've been working on "tidying up"here, so its kept me very busy. My goal is to be more organized by spring and then tackle the garage (AKA the dumping ground). It's been a busy month for me , so hopefully things will calm down in February. Thanks for stopping by today.

CC&S #305

Hello! I hope everyone is doing well. We have had lots of snow recently here, so lots of shoveling happening here lately. I have enjoyed some extra crafty time as it's not great weather for going out. I made several versions of this card before I came up with this version. I've needed several baby cards recently, so that is what I went with today. Thanks for stopping by today.

CC&S #304

Hello! I'm back with a fun card to share for this week's color challenge. I wanted to make this a Valentine card as it's coming up and I thought the addition of the blue would make a great card for a guy. I always struggle with cards for men, but I'm working on that this year. Must think outside the box sometimes.Last week's cards were fantastic, I can't wait to see what this week brings. Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting.

The Holly and Ivy #43

Hello! Happy New Year! I'm sharing my 1st card of the new year for The Holly and Ivy challenge, it's an anything goes challenge. So begins another year where I'll be trying to get ahead on my holiday cards. Last year I thought I had a great head start, then my friends and coworkers cleaned me out and I was 12/15 making my own cards to send out. This one was a lot of work, not one I'd mass produce. All those tiny bits to add to the snowman was time consuming. Thanks for stopping by today.

CC&S #303

Hello! Happy New Year! I hope the new year has started off well for you. I hope to have a better organized craft space this year, and have been working hard on that goal. I purged a few items and sold them thru a facebook group. I've been overwhelmed lately when I sit down to craft, so I really needed to work on my space. I'd love to fix up my space in the basement better, but all things in do time. So in my purging I came across a stamp I haven't used in ages (maybe since I bought it) that was perfect for this sketch. I'll be making a lot of birthday cards for the 1st part of the year, as I usually need a lot of them. I'm looking forward to seeing what our new DT members come up with as well as those of you who play along with us. Thanks for stopping by today.

Simply Create Too #145

Hello! I've been crafting away for a few days and happy to report that I have not run out of supplies yet. LOL!!! Like many of you I have amassed a huge supply of stamps, dies and paper... only thing i would need is adhesive. Our challenge this month is an "Anything goes" challenge, so I made a birthday card. I always need those. The die is MFT , I paired it with a sparkly patterned paper and just a few sequins. I hope you will join us . Thanks for stopping by today.
