Dr Digi: Toilet Paper for Crappy Day

Hello crafty friends :o)   Today is my day to Dr Digi post.


Who wants free toilet paper?  Well, this image Toilet Paper is free at Dr Digi.  Sometimes the image just speaks for itself and I just kept it simple.  I used a sentiment from Unity Stamp that seem to sum things up for many staying at home.  The poopie paper .... perfect :o) 

Here's the inside.

thanks for looking and reading :o)

Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog #22: Santa's Hat

Hello crafty friends!  This is my post for Merry Little Christmas Challenge Blog, where Christmas projects are welcome all year.


Here's a simple and cute cutting file from The Cutting Cafe.  This file Santa's Hat is just cute as can be and it does come with it's own sentiments, but I used a stamp I had.  Some soft ink around the white edges and frant-age for texture.  I little baker's twine as an accent.


Just a peek of the inside. 

thanks for looking and reading :o)

I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:



stamps: C C Designs
paper: scraps
die-cut: The Cutting Cafe: Santa's Hat Shape
embellishment: baker's twine, frant-age


Love to Craft Challenge Blog #46: Mixed Media Bird Tag

Hello crafty friends!   This is my post for Love to Craft Challenge Blog,  every month is Anything Goes.   We want to see what you have been crafting.


The image Birds Hair from artist Julia Spiri was color with my Prismacolor pencils.  I decided to make a mixed media tag.  Paint, scrap paper, tissue, sewing maching stitching, ink, gold & purple paint, cheese cloth:  just for the background.  After the sewing the stitches, I couldn't stand looking at the back of the tag, so I fixed it .


I did the same technique with a new tag to place over the back of the front tag, but without the stitching.  This little wooden bird has been sitting in my craft closet for awhile, some gesso paint, ink and gold paint to tie it into the project.

thanks for looking and reading :o)

embellishments: paints, inks, embossing powder, cheesecloth, wooden bird,  the Paper Studios: flowers

Love to Scrap! Challenge Blog # 133: Typewriter Message

Hello crafty friends !!   I can't believe we are all still grounded.  Things have been different, the kids think they are on extended summer vacation and computer times have to be scheduled ( the dogs get a better scheduled time than me and they are ahead of the cats just wanting to sit on the keyboards).

New month, all new challenges on the sister blogs.

This post is for Love to Scrap Challenge Blog, this month is Anything Goes.


I'm still playing and learning how to work my Scan n Cut.  Found this cut file from The Cutting Cafe called Typewriter Shape Card


They have sentiments that come with the file, but I wanted to use my own stamps.   I have a stock pile of stamps needing to used.


Here is the inside.
