THANKSGIVING BRIDGE FOLD CARD

Hi, There!

I made a few Thanksgiving cards but this is the only one I had the chance to post.  These are all Stampin Up products used for this bridge fold card. I love this stamp set and the coordinating dies.  This is a set from last year - just getting around to using it now!  Better late than never!  LOL  

I have a lot to be thankful for this year as I am getting to see my grandson that I haven't seen in five years!  So my daughter, Debbie, and Jason are coming in from Minnesota to celebrate Thanksgiving in New York!  So all my chicks and their families (2 daughters, 2 sons) will be under one roof for a limited time together!  Yay!!!

Hoping to add some family memories to our digital albums and moments to be treasured.  

Thank you for visiting me today, big hugs and blessings always for you and yours,

MY GRATEFUL CARD

It has been some time since my last post.  But I have been creating a ton of cards and also making albums.  So creatively busy but not posting much.  Sorry about that.  I made one card like this and it blossomed into a whole bunch of different grateful cards.  We can always find something to be grateful for in our lives no matter what is going on with us or around us.  

The card front is an old embossing folder I dug out of my stash and it just about covers all the gratefuls in my life.  This embossing folder made card making simple too because it is so pretty by itself.  So many embossing folders that can do just that for you - quick card idea!

May you always find blessings tucked away in your day.  

I thank my Lord for my blessings both seen and unseen each and every day!

Card Recipe:

CS - Base is Navy Blue 

Die cuts and sentiments from SU both have been popped up with dimensionals and this is an easel card.  On the side is a small peek at another closed card with changed up colors.  Fall colors are so much fun to play with!!!

BABY BOY MINI ALBUM

 Hi, There!

I hope my post finds you all well.  Here on the East Coast, we are still waiting for it to warm up!  Spring has to arrive soon but in the meantime, I am keeping warm all bundled up! LOL  

Had some creativity going on here, so my hands have been kept warm by creating a Baby Boy Mini Album from envelopes.  This was a project I decided to make for one of the ladies at church expecting her baby boy any day now and since we celebrated her baby shower, it is now safe for me to show the photos of this album.  Hope you enjoy taking a peek.  Hugs and be blessed always, CaroleAnn

The End!  Blessings 

ALICE IN WONDERLAND Mini Album made with envelopes

 Hi, There!

Just wanted to share this with you.  I wanted to make a mini album for my sister's birthday and so the search began on youtube for mini albums that were easy!  Well, there is a ton of examples out there of mini albums made with envelopes!  So here is the one I made for her!  I used craft envelopes that I had on hand (4x6).  Loads of fun putting it together and using up lots of my 6 x 6 papers. I have a collection of Alice in Wonderland stamps from Stamping Bella and Make It Crafty, so put them to use in this card booklet for my sister.  Stamping Bella shows you a video on coloring most of their images so I copied those Copic markers down and had a few days of coloring fun!!

Note:  Photo heavy.  Thanks for peeping, hugs, and blessings always, CaroleAnn
