2024 Going by in a Blurrr!

 I really don't know how the first month of 2024 is gone nor do I know where it went.  Maybe I had my eyes shut the whole month.  Now two weeks of February are almost gone as well. With February being a short month, you know that it means March will be here, like tomorrow.  

But before March arrives, I wanted to post a few cards I have made and a few I have received.  

November CCC

My card went out to Dee in Kenya

I received this super fun card from Lou in Australia,

She called this sledding pig totally out of control, as he spins and slides, both!

December CCC

My card went out to Barbara in Switzerland
My bears must have been calling their friends to tell them I needed a bear.

Because I got a bear who came to me from Bonnie in CO
He's pulling a sled full of gifts, which I love and the little St Nick rider.
Isn't this a great card!


January CCC

My card went out to Hilary in UK
I used the sketch instead of the theme of Mythical creatures used by many.

Dee in Kenya did use the theme, Mythical creatures, though and sent me this wonderful dragon! 
The colorful Kaleidoscope (or Stained-glass window) background makes him even more special.
Very Medieval looking.


Back to some challenges from Splitcoast Stampers

I have had a hard time keeping up with the challenges I used to do on Splitcoast Stampers, but I have tried to catch up a little on the Watercolor challenge.  I am trying to improve my watercolor skills but find little time to practice.  Hard to improve without painting, right.
These three pictures are ones I did for the challenges in the last few weeks.  
      


Valentines will be here in a few days so I'm giving you all a card to remind you how much I love you.  
The foiled heart was made with my new Glimmer machine, which was my Christmas gift from my sweet husband.  He now has plenty of other gift ideas for me, like more foil plates. 








Marching On

 The year continues Marching on - too fast for my liking.  I have been busy making cards but can't seem to find the time to post them as...
