THAIC #69

Hello! I hope you all are doing well. I haven't had much motivation to craft lately with all that's going on in the world. I'm sure I'm not alone. I feel like this isn't my best work and I wasn't even going to share it. I does look better in person. I hope my motivation returns soon. Thanks for stopping by.

Hello! With Easter just around the corner I wanted to make a fun card to celebrate. I've been struggling with motivation lately. Where I live is quickly becoming a hot spot (NW Indiana, border Chicago) so I'm getting a bit more concerned. I've been trying to keep busy .. my house has never been so clean and organised in the 18 years we have lived here. It is supposed to nice here today, so maybe I'm do a little spring clean up in the yard. I hope you all are staying well where ever you are in the world. Thanks for stopping by today.

Sunnier days are coming

I've been trying to make some happy cards to mail out to friends. I originally bought this stamp to make Easter cards, but this sentiment seems to work well with that current situation. I want to try to spread a little cheer. I hope you all are doing well . Thanks for stopping by today.

CC&S double challenge play along

Hello! I couldn't decide which card I liked best for this challenge I will share my other card I made. I loved Julie's card and wanted to try something along the same line. Hope you all are well.

Hello! I hope everyone is doing well, as well as we all can during this time. I've been trying to make more cards to encourage my friends and family lately.It's been difficult to find inspiration and desire to make anything. I know this is hard on all of us. The other day I dropped off my mom's weekly grocery order and she stepped out on her front porch as I was getting into my car, she was crying. It's so hard to see this and not be able to physically comfort her. I'm sure I'm not the only one dealing with an elderly parent feeling sad. So back to the card... stamps are from the Ton (floral image ) and SSS (sentiment) . I made another card for this challenge not knowing which way to go with the design, so I'll be playing along this week too. I hope you will join us, it may take your mind off things for a bit. Be safe everyone.

CC&S #363

Hello! What a week it's been. I won't mention the "you know what" as we are all stressed enough. I'm still working , I work for a retina practice and we handle sight threatening conditions.. so we can stay open. I'm trying to do anything to calm my nerves, so tonight in my neighborhood under the cover of darkness ... there was a random carding. I put a card I made in a clear bag and taped it to friends front doors. I posted a cryptic message about it on my facebook page. My friends enjoyed the fun surprise. We could all use a bit of fun these days. Consider sending a card to a friend or 2. Thanks for stopping by. PS: sorry I used another mythical stamp this week.. I just really felt this was funny and who doesn't need a laugh right now.

Hello! I'm back to share a fun card for our anything goes challenge. I've been a little behind with my card making recently. I'm hoping to catch up soon. How are all of you? I'm a little stressed, so I've been binge watching things about the royal family, old stuff, new stuff, really old stuff... just whatever pops up . Thanks for stopping by today.
