Here is a layout I made for a challenge at A Cherry on Top – Three in a Row. My three were a decorative border and word srips…and a free space. The photos are from a few years ago when Saguaro blooming season were at its best…it’s been a while since we’ve seen such beauty. What memories are you documenting this week? Let me know in the comments!
I was supposed to make and send this card right after Christmas, but life had other plans! I’ve had a houseful of family visiting from Michigan, and while I kept telling myself I’d get around to posting, time just slipped away. Don’t you just hate when that happens?
I’m officially on a mission to get caught up. I had a few
quiet minutes before heading to bed, so I finally sat down and finished this
one up.
The star of the show is this gorgeous paper by Anna Griffin. Fun fact: I actually bought this nearly 15 years ago! It’s been sitting in my stash for over a decade, and I honestly thought I’d never find a use for it. I’m so glad I finally found the perfect sketch to bring it to life!
I decided to jump into the latest Cherry on Top Cherry Lift Challenge!
The first step was finding the right materials. I managed to
score some incredible patterned papers from my local craft group's freebie
table—they were in the sweetest, most yummy colors imaginable. Sometimes, the
best supplies find you!
Given how much was already going on with the bold paper
patterns, I decided to keep the layout clean and simple (CAS). I didn't want to
overwhelm the eye. The pattern colors provide all the "pop" this
project needs, letting the fun patterns be the star of the show.

Get ready for a visual chocolate feast! I'm thrilled to

challenge hosted by A Cherry on Top crafting community.
So excited to share my entry for the My Mood Challenge! I brought out the festive vibes with the Green Valley Amateur Radio Club Valentine’s event. I loved using some of my favorite hearts from my stash. So pleased to get this scrapped... I mean, it’s only three years in the making.
So proud to see my grandson cheering on his cousin as he plays with the Fort Cherry football team! Watching his talent shine and seeing him celebrate his success is what it's all about. WooHoo!
I'm joining in on the fun and entering this creation into the latest contest the Rewind Challenge at A Cherry on Top.
Usually, I'm racing against the deadline, but I finished my project for Sketch Challenge #460 with time to spare. The best part? The colors I chose ended up being a perfect match for my niece’s glasses—I couldn't have planned it better if I tried!
Sharing a fresh layout today inspired by the latest “Sketch
with a Twist” challenge at A Cherry on Top. I decided to play with
some of my favorite Creative Memories pieces for this one. I’m
still a bit bummed that their digital packs are a thing of the past, but it’s
been fun rediscovering what I already have in my digital library. I’m quite
pleased with the outcome—what do you think?
For this month's Anything Goes Challenge at Kerst Christmas Challenge.
I ws sure my New Year's resolution to use my stash wouldn't last more than a day - but here it is eight days in, and I made a card using items just from my stash! Note to self - REMEMBER to hit your stash first!
Bonnie Kohane is doing some exceptionally creative work for our 10th Anniversary at Kerst Christmas Challenge - so be sure to watch for her fabulous creations that you can download each week. Here's a sneak peak...using Red Peppermint Candy, along with Elvis Wesley Christmas Moose from our sponsor, Polkadoodles.
I'm so thrilled today! After hosting a Christmas party and crafting 118 holiday cards—plus several sympathy and birthday cards—I finally have a clean craft table again. I’m feeling incredibly proud of that marathon session, but it’s already time to start on January birthdays. Fortunately, I checked the challenges at A Cherry On Top this morning. Their latest sketch saved the day once again, and I’m sure it won’t be the last time!
I've fallen behind on my Christmas cards, so I chose to "case" (copy and share everything) this simple yet elegant design: Anna Griffin Thank You Cards by iluvpaper2 at Splitcoaststampers.
