Maybe you’ll be inspired to enter a card or two yourself? My DT card features two whimsical QKR digital images plus a computer-generated sentiment that I found several years ago on FB. (I tried to find the source, but it appears from this article that it is attributed to several people, a magazine, a newspaper and more. So I hope I’m not violating any copyright by using it!)

A Perfect Time to Craft 2020-Anything Goes- Challenge #2-2020

Because I just hate to throw things away I have a ton of scraps!  So occasionally I try to put them to use.  This card is an example of such an attempt. It was made from scraps of cardstock plus some patterned papers-blue stripes and seashells. I even did a bit of fussy-cutting to use a few of the bits and pieces! (I sketched the sailboat using a photo on Pinterest as my guide… and the sentiments are computer-generated.

Supplies: 

·    Boat- paper pieced with scraps of cardstock and patterned paper

·    Sentiments- Computer Generated

·    Seashells and small anchor embellishments- cut from scrapbook paper

·    Small star punch and scalloped frame template from my stash

·    Assorted background papers from my stash

For my final card this posting, I pulled out a wood mount stamp from Embossing Arts. Although this company has  been out of business for many years, it has a warm place in my heart. When a dear friend and I opened a stamp/scrap store in South Dakota in 1999, Embossing Arts was one of the first stamp lines that we carried. So I have man of their great stamps. This sweet one is a favorite! I wanted the teddies to have a really soft feeling, so opted to using my chalks, applied with plain old Q-tips. The result turned out exactly as I’d hoped.  Raided my stash for paper, the little puffy heart sticker and a strip of yummy brown ribbon. (I call it yummy because it is upcycled from a box of Godiva chocolates and carries with it memories of… well… sweet yumminess!)

Supplies: 

·    Image- Embossing Arts “I’m Glad There’s You” (company no longer in business)

·    Inside Sentiment- QKR Stampede (Thinking of You Q-digi16108)

·    Colored with chalks and Q-tips

·    Background papers and brown ribbon from my stash

·    Puffy Heart Stickers- Sticko’s from WalMart
