Another anniversary lighthouse

Another version of a previous card -for another late anniversary greeting.  This couple also enjoys RV travel along the Oregon coast - and so do we.  This is such a lovely vintage picture - a freebie from TLC.  It was new to me to make these cards.   The sun is die cut from what was probably my first Cuttlebug purchase all those years ago -from an alphabet set I think is called Olivia.  I tried to die the edges of the image with coffee - did not turn out too well!

Crafter's Cafe Dec. 15 challenge

We hope you will join us for the current challenge at the Crafter's Cafe....Holidays  OR
I spy with my little eye something beginning with C .  As you can see, I have covered  both aspects of the challenge.  The image is from QKR Stampede.  I fussy cut two candles so they could be layered with more dimension.  I used a bit of grey to highlight the white candle.  I used DP from my stash, and also found the tag in my stash of paper,  Check out the details of the challenge as well as delightful examples from fellow team members here.

Christmas 2019

I am trying to complete a few more Christmas cards, even as it is time to get them in the mail!  OK, next year I really will start earlier!  Once again I am taking advantage of a colored image by Beccy.  The sentiment is from her same Nativity collection.  The oval die cuts are with Spellbinders.

Eureka Tic-Tac-Toe

This week the challenge at Eureka Stamps is Tic Tac Toe.  I selected the middle row - using twine, embossing, and Washi Tape.  I used the Happy Birthday embossing folder by Embossalicious.  I chose this birthday sentiment, Most Special Day, by Eureka - what a nice birthday sentiment.  The designer paper featuring some tiny hearts is from a pad by Beau Papier.  I selected twine and Washi tape to match the hearts. Hint - I cut tiny notches on the edges of the bg mat to anchor the twine so it will stay in place. The shimmery dark burgundy mat cs is from Clear Bags.  I hope you will check out this challenge at  Eureka - you have until Sunday afternoon to enter.

Hugs and prayers

I have a large stash of images that I have printed (digis) as well as stamped images I have colored - nice to have on hand for quick cards - however, my record keeping is not so good - as a result, I cannot identify this.  I am pretty sure it is a digi, but I am not able to locate the original in my files.  Can any one help?  The sentiment is from the Wish RAK group at Splitcoaststampers.
