Welcome! I have a few cards to share and some links to some great products and blogs! And did you know I was the Friday Featured Cardmaker at OWH on 10/17/14? It was a huge honor to be chosen! http://operationwritehome.org/featured-friday-card-maker-diane-w-stoneham-ma/
Friday was the 10th anniversary of my Dad's passing and I took the day off from work. I did what makes me happy- I went to the scrapbook store, made cards and spent time with loved ones! I met my great-niece Madeline Jean- what a sweetie- and played Candy Land and Ants in the Pants with her awesome big brother Sam. Spending time with my father's legacy makes missing him a tiny bit less painful!
I spent some time this am visiting some blogs- there is a new stamp company from Germany and they hosted a great hop featuring their products! I have a long list of things I want to purchase! Wow, the talent of the ladies showing how they used the stamps and stencils and chipboard- oh my! Please spend some time watching http://createasmilestamps.blogspot.com/2014/10/an-ah-mah-zing-video-blog-hop-and.html.
I made 2 cards for Operation Write Home; for the sketch challenge and for the mid-month throw-down. http://operationwritehome.org/mid-month-throwdown-winter-birthday/.
I had some scraps of paper left over from the penguin card so I decided to make another card and play along with Pixie's Snippets Playground - Week 148

All are just adorable! Love the way you mix different patterns together, and your coloring is perfect!

ReplyDeleteGosh Diane, you've be busy making some really lovely cards here! I must admit that my favourite is the snippets one right at the end.

All three are wonderful! I love the colors on the second card and the sweet bunny on the third, but I think my favorite is the adorable sushi penguin!!

ReplyDeleteHi, Diane.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful collection of cards... and what a wonderful way to honor your father's legacy. Sending good thoughts your way.

ReplyDeleteLove your sweet cards.

Hi Diane, Just saw your adorable sledding bunny over at the Snippets Playground. Popped over to say Hello and welcome to the Playground. Love the fun look of this pretty card, and became your newest follower. Hope to see you in the Playground. It's a fun place, but I've not been able to visit as often lately, as I'd wish. Hope you'll find time to visit me occasionally too. Big hugs. TFS
ReplyDeleteThey are absolutely gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteLove and hugs
