Good Tuesday morning, peeps! I had so much fun making my gift card holder for today. Let me show you...
Welcome to Monday Makeover Madness. Today I CASE'd my friend and upline, Mary Deatherage. You can see her card here. Here's mine...
Next I cut the Very Vanilla mats for two different patterns of DSP from the retired Floral Romance Specialty DSP and for the "window". Measurements for everything are listed below.
For the "window" I cut a different wood grain pattern from the upcoming Heart & Home DSP with the retired Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies (the 2 5/8" and the 2 1/8" ones). Then I adhered the window strips, from that same pattern, that I had cut with my Stampin' Trimmer. I adhered a piece of vellum from the retired Floral Romance Specialty DSP behind the window and strips. I adhered that piece to another piece of Very Vanilla cardstock and adhered that to the front with Stampin' Dimensionals.
I stamped the sentiment from the Inspired Thoughts Stamp Set on a strip of DSP with Mossy Meadow ink. I adhered the left side with liquid glue and the right side with Dimensionals.
In my stash was a button that matched the card base so I adhered that with a glue dot, made a double loop Linen Thread bow and attached that with a glue dot. Outside, fini! Now on to the inside...
Measurements:
Card Base: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Very Vanilla Cardstock:
TGIF, peeps! Are you still in a turkey coma? Believe it or not, I did not overeat yesterday and I even skipped dessert!
My card today uses the Daisy Lane Stamp Set, Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set and Best Year Stamp Set. I've also used the Designer Series Paper that will be in the Sale-A-Bration promotion in January. It's called Daffodil Afternoon. You're going to love it! However, because I am a PEO and their signature flower is a daisy, I chose to go that route. Take a look see...
Mid week again, folks! Seriously, it's November 24 already? Hope you have a fun day planned tomorrow. I am thankful for so many things and I'm sure you are too. There's a lot to be said about gratitude. It sure beats grumbling!!
My card today is for the gentleman who lost his wife in September. I bumped into him Monday and he thanked me profusely for the card I sent him, along with my thoughts. So, I felt led to create this card for him using the Sailing Home Stamp Set.

Good Tuesday morning! I did not make a card for today but have three more cards I received during my birthday month. In the past, I have celebrated my birthday once a week by going out to eat. Not this year, however. I'm just celebrating with cards. The first card uses the sentiment from the retired Pretty Kitty Stamp Set. It makes me want to dig that set out and use it again! The second uses a die from the Sea Life Dies set. The third is a photograph that reminds me of the retired Delightful Daisy DSP.
Good Monday Morning Makeover, peeps! I'm still going with a Thanksgiving theme. Well, because...you know why! I'm so glad I don't have to cook for Thursday! What are you doing that day?
This is how my remake looks and because there is no stamping, I'm entering it in the UnstampaBelles Challenge #117: November: Colour my World. I love all the colors represented in the truck.
I'm also entering my card at Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper November 2021 and Use Your Stuff #436 Thanksgiving/Grateful.
Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you enjoyed my remake.
Good Sunday morning, peeps! Can you believe Thanksgiving is Thursday? I'll be going to my Godson's for Thanksgiving and decided to make these table favors for each person. The boxes are so quick and easy if you have the Mini Curvy Keepsake Box Dies, which are retired. The Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper is retired as well. (I have an unopened pack if anyone is looking for it!)
The design for my tags came from my upline, Amy Koenders. I printed out the sentiments on my computer and cut them with another die from the Mini Curvy Keepsakes. Then I used that same die to cut the bottom portion of DSP and adhered it to the main tag. I'm glad I kept the dies and paper! The baker's twine is from the Dollar Store that I purchased in 2011! Ten years ago and it's the first time I've used it...lol. I dug deep into the stash for this project! The Dove Sea Salt Caramel candies, however, are new!!
I'm entering my project at TGIF Challenge 343.
and at Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper November 2021.
Thank you for stopping by today and tomorrow I might just have a makeover!
Well, Karen Ksenzakovic...if you are reading this, you know I finally CASE'd your card! It took me awhile, but with your wonderful video it worked out pretty good!! For my readers who don't know, Karen is one of my teammates who creates fun folds for Fridays, which she videos on Wednesday.
Without further ado, here's my take!
For the inside...
Since I do not do videos, I've provided a link here for you to see how it was created. Thank you, TOK (the other Karen) for such great instructions and all the math you did!
I'm entering my card in these challenges:
Creative Creases #19 - Anything Goes with a Fun Fold
12 Months of Christmas #83 with the optional twist of: Red & White
Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge #569
Thank you for stopping by today.
TGIF, peeps! My card today is all Stampin' Up! with the exception of the metallic digital paper I won at 12 Months of Christmas on Challenge #81. I'm playing again in their #83 challenge but without the red and white optional twist. However, stay tuned for the optional twist tomorrow! Thank you, Lisa Decosse for your wonderful work of art!
For the inside sentiment, I used a stamp from the Words of Cheer Stamp Set and a stamp from A Wish For Everything Stamp Set. I also used the Holly Border Punch.
I had a lot of fun creating this card. I'm not going into the details of how I put it together, but here are the measurements if you want to try your hand at making it:
Card Base: 7 1/2" x 8 1/2"; score and fold at 1 3/4", 5 1/4" on 7 1/2" side
Panel 1: Basic White 2 1/8" x 8 3/8"; DSP 2" x 8 1/4"

Mat for art piece: 2 1/4" x 5 1/2"
Basic White Embossed Panel: 2 1/8" x 5 3/8"
Card Stock to fit word die, letter dies, leaves and stars, which sub as pointsettias!
