Day 695

I must have cut yesterdays carriage and this file for a scrapbook page that never got made. The file would have come from the same place as the carriage. Simple but I think it makes a sweet card.

Day 694

 This card part is dang near an antique. :O)  I think the file is from a now defunct site called something like wishingblade ??? It was an adorable file and one of the first things I cut with my first KNK.  For what ever reason it sat in a box and when I came upon it decided it needed to be made into a card.

Day 693

A combination of old and new. I have so much patterned scrap paper and it seems like it has been ages since I have used any. I had this floral piece sitting out and decided to use it for this card. The center pink was part of a collection of files called tags and I cut it from pink textured Coredinations paper using my KNK Maxx. I also had the Happy Birthday to You cut out (vinyl) and ready to go so it didn't take long to assemble this card.

For those of you waiting for the update here is Tash and her sister Kala. Our visit went very well and we are so happy that they were able to reunite after 25 years.

Day 692

Happy Valentine's Day! This card was made using a free file from "Tired Lady" on one of the KNK Yahoo sites. It was an SVG which I converted to EPS using Inkscape, and then imported it to KNK Studio. I had to do some editing, not sure if something got lost in the conversion or what but there were lines missing. But what a sweet card!  Thanks Tired Lady, right now I share your name. :O)

Day 691

It's been a while since I have had time to play. We have had a bathroom remodel from hell which has consumed way too much of my time. The good news is, that while the bathroom still isn't done after almost 2 months, it is now 100% usable. And the other good news is that because the entire house was covered with a layer of remodeling dust it forced me to do some major cleaning. I can now see parts of the counter top in my craft room. :O) So today I took a break and made a card parts card. I don't know where the elephant came from but I do know that I printed him and cut him out. The heart was cut with my KNK and the pink part embossed with my Cuttlebug and the dot folder. The I Love You A TON was cut from vinyl using PC Dazzle font. I can't tell you how good it felt to sit down and make a card!

Tomorrow my daughter's sister is coming to visit! Tash was 2 when we adopted her and she had a 4 year old sister that stayed with her parents. After a 25 year separation I found the sister on Facebook and she is coming from Israel for a short visit. I am so thrilled that the two of them will get to see each other again!

Day 690

Am I on a roll or what? Another embossed card, this time I believe it is a Cuttlebug embossing folder. The heart was made using a KNK cutting file and my KNK Maxx. The words are Calligrapher Regular cut from vinyl using my KNK. It was all card parts that came together step by step.

Day 689

Another embossed card. Once again the embossing folder is from Sizzix and the font is Calligrapher Regular cut from vinyl using my KNK Maxx.
