Make a Wish

Hey friends!!! Welcome back to my little corner of the blog-o-sphere!  So, today I have a fun little card using a slightly different design!
This "Peek through" card measures 5.5" x 4.25" and features Mo Manning's "Make a Wish" digi image available HERE in Mo's online store. I made this card for my beautiful daughter who I see only a couple of times a year. But now, with the Covid "situation," I don't know when I'll get to fly out to AZ to spend time with her. So, I thought I'd send her a little love via snail mail!

Here's a slightly side-ish view . . .

Bye Bye

Graduation from High School is a big deal! Soooo . . . today I have a fun little graduation card to share with you.
This 5.5" square card features Mo Manning's "Bye Bye"!! I made a similar card for our granddaughter, Emma, when she graduated from High School 3 years ago. This card is a commission for a friend of mine whose granddaughter just graduated and is headed to college in the fall! Dark blue, white, and gold are her new school's colors!! You can find this fun digi image HERE in Mo's online store.

Another Tilda

Hello again!! I've got another Z-fold card to share with you. I'm loving these smaller cards . . . so much simpler to mail! This is another card made with sweet little Tilda from Magnolia stamps!! I used Distress Inks for this cutie! I'm really enjoying painting with DIs lately . . . it's so relaxing!
Card Recipe:
Image stamped onto Stonehenge 100% cotton paper
Almost Amethyst Cardstock: Stampin' Up
DPs: Morning Whispers by The Paper Boutique
Dies & pearls: My stash
Inside sentiment stamp: Stampin' Up
Tim Holtz Distress Inks

A peek at the card opened up . . .

I've decided to enter this cutie into the "As You Like It" Challenge where the theme is . . .  Digi or Rubber and why. I actually like them both!! Digi images are so convenient to use and store . . . but when I paint with Distress Inks, I prefer rubber stamping. For this one, I used a rubber stamp!

And that's it for me today!! Thanks (in advance) for visiting and for your sweet comments! Hugs . . .
