Dog & Books Card - Newtons Nook AllBookedUp Woof CoffeeHouseStories

Played with a Newton's Nook: stamp/die All Booked Up, Woof stencil and Coffee House Stores paper.

I like to read & currently reading the following 2 books: The Whistler by John Grisham (have enjoyed many books by JG) & The Guest List by Lucy Foley (1st time reading by LF and the story is captivating right from the 1st chapter).

I have 2 dogs; a Lab/Retriever Mix that will be 15 (adopted when 7) in Aug this yr and a German Shepherd/Husky (she has an amber eye & a blue eye which is the Husky in her ) that is 4 (adopted when 2). It snowed here in N TX beginning of Feb.

CTMH StitchedTogetherScrap Quilt Card

Recently rcvd Close To My Heart CTMH Quilt embossing folder when it became available after selling out first time. I discovered that it was easier to cut the squares to be 
1 3/8" x 1 3/8" and place in embossing folder because if not cut first and cut after embossing the paper tears more & the white core shows thru.
 
I've always been envious of people who can quilt. I crochet so I used a blanket I crocheted using granny stitch pattern but since I do not like to join squares I kept going around & around changing colors.

You can order thru month of Jun  the stamp & die, papers & embossing folder. My CTMH website link is below or you can click on my right sidebar where it indicates CTMH.

Easter Flower ATC

Created this Easter Flower ATC using Masking technique.
Stamped the Stampin' Up flower on 2 pieces of white cardstock. Stamped the sentiment on the uncut piece. Cut one of the flowers out using an SU die. Covered the uncut flower with the cut flower after stamped ink had dried to mask it. Used Tim Holtz Distress Inks without harming the stamped flower since the cut piece was masking the bottom piece. Took the cut piece away.

Added stickles to flower center that the photo does not show up as nice as it is in person.

Supplies List
ATC card base is 2 1/2" x 3 1/2"
Crayola: pencil colors
ink:  Memento - Cottage Ivy, Tangelo
paper: cardstock - Kraft layer, white
punch: Fiskars corner rounder
