Hello card Using CTMH NEW Seaside Paper and Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge


Hello to all of my followers!  It has been super hot here in Southern CA; as I know it has been over most of US.  I can't believe it is almost the end of July.  My brother in law, Darrell, is gradually getting his strength back; but still trying to heal after his stem cell transplant for his cancer.  It is a very slow recovery process.  I appreciate all of your prayers for him and my sister Becky. 

I found out I have GERD/Acid Reflux and have been in severe pain for 6 weeks.  I had been to my dentist plus two physicians before they figured out what was wrong.  It started in my mouth; rather than in my stomach.  It then traveled to my throat and then to my esophagus.  I never realized something like this could be so painful.  I started on medication; and I hope it starts working soon.  I try to keep busy with creating cards; which distracts me from my pain.  Unfortunately; working on the computer isn't as distracting as I would like it to be.  

I made this card for my other sister, Alice and her husband Kenny.  When Alice thinks someone isn't listening to her; she says "Hel------loooooo!" to get their attention.  She did that with us one time we were visiting and so now we say that to each other; when we want someones attention.  It is hard to get a large group of people to listen; when several of us are together.  It is very hilarious when she says it; so I thought this would be a cute card to send her and her husband.

I used an old sketch from Mojo Monday 242.  I used our New CTMH Seaside paper; which will be available August 1, 2014.  I also used the NEW CTMH Glacier cardstock.  We have 5 new colors and they are just gorgeous!

Birthday Card for Male - Using CTMH Avonlea Paper

Hi all you beautiful crafters out there!!  It's really hot here in Southern CA; so I have been staying inside trying to stay cool.  We had a few earthquakes here a couple days ago; which is always a frightening experience to me.  I wasn't living here when they had the last big one; but seeing it on TV was enough to know I didn't want to be here when one hits.  Now - I'm living here and where do you go?  It isn't like a hurricane that you have advanced notice and can outrun; which I use to do when I lived in Florida.  Every area has it's fear factor.  We need to have faith and trust everything will work out the way it is supposed to work out. 

I missed Mojo Monday last week.  I don't know how I forgot it; but I did.  I created a birthday card for my son; which was more difficult than I thought it would be.  Trying to find that many layers of coordinating paper can be a challenge.  Plus; trying to figure out what to use for sentiments to fit that person.   He is a dog lover; so I went with using A Bowwow stamp set on the outside.   My coloring for the dog wasn't what I wanted; but it was all I had in brown colors.


Inside card - Used retired set for the Smile sentiment.  (CTMH "Wonderful You") and CTMH "4 My Friend" for Happy Birthday sentiment.
