Starry Christmas

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

While I had those star dies out.....

I die cut several for the previous card and wanted to use the leftovers as well as

some leftover white stars in with the dies.

Actually, other than the sentiment, all the elements of this card were leftovers.

This one is for 52 Christmas Card Throwdown.  I think it's close enough to the sketch.

If not, I apologize for taking it over there.

This one is QACAS!  I love it when those UFOs come together!

I'll take this one to Jingle Belles Stars or Stripes

Happy Birthday America

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

If you're in the US, happy Independence Day!

I've been seeing stars today. Red, white and blue stars.

This can do double duty as a birthday card for one of our boys.

My friend Michele (I Card Everyone) loves playing cards with friends and

this time she's playing with Color Hues and they've invited all of us to join in using

Red & Blue.  Michele has suggested incorporating stars into our design.

I gladly took the challenge. 

The second largest star is red foil.  The camera makes it look black.

I die cut the happy from red glitter paper and blue glitter paper and cut the

letters apart.  The other sparkly happy will go on another card.

Challenges:

Color Hues - Red & Blue

Four Seasons - Summer

Plaid Stars

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Christmas is right around the corner.

(April Fool)

But honestly, it feels like the weeks and months are flying by!

My friend Chrissie (Simply One of a Kind) did some lovely cards last Fall

using stitched stars.  I was so impressed that I found some stitch star dies and added

them to my stash.  They've finally found their way out of the NBUS box.

I love how they paired up with this plaid paper!

Challenges:

Jingle Belles - Plaid Christmas

NBUS  - Never Before Used Schtuff (Star dies)
