22, but who is counting?

Tomorrow, my friend Ben turns SIX! He is a huge Ninjago fan, so I made him this card to go along with the donuts I am baking up for him!
Here is the card mostly closed:


And, opened:




I based it on a card i saw on Pinterest. That style wasn't big enough, so I used a double z fold and used two pie e's of card stock in order to get it the size I wanted.

Let e know what you think....

A Wee Bit Late

It really isn't as if I haven't been crafting, I am! Today I caught ack up by making a set of eight cards and a matching gift tote for them!
I ave been stumped by this dp (Tami would call it my Grandma Paper) and after seeing a card Pansy made, decided to use it in the following way:

The dp is from Stamping Up! And th sentiment from Amuse Studio. The buckle is very old CTMH.
I know I made nine items, but am counting them as two! Therefore, back current! Yippee!

Up to date

Yep, I have finally hit Number 18 in my quest for



Here is 17:


This card follows Tuesday Morning Sketch #181 ~ I hope they count my jute as ribbon so that I have their twist covered! And, speaking of twists, this is apropos for Twisted Tuesday Challenge 2TC40. They wanted to see off stamping (barely, but it happened) and something crumpled.

And here is 18:


This follows the sketch at Mojo Monday ~ Mojo276.

What's for Supper?

Today we can reveal a card for a mystery swap of sorts. Everyone receives the same immie and makes their cards, returns to the hostess and it starts again...
Jeanette picked a great image this time around and I tried a new to me fold which Judy enabled me to try (okay, she showed it off and I had to try it)!


It was definitely a fun card to make!

Book Blitz Month

Yep, you know it.....it's time to get my DUEL on!
Our theme this month, as alluded to in my title, is reading! I love to read....have since I was a young'en! In fact, I read just about anything I can get my hands on. Growing up, I lived five houses away from the only remaining one room school house in our county. My parents were part of the historical society preserving it and I had access to the key. What wonderful books I found to read in that library!



My son and I are currently reading "Eye of the Crow" by Shane Peacock ~ the rot agonist is a young Sherlock Holmes! I don't really have a favorite book (probably whatever is in my hands at the moment), but for an easy read I do enjoy Janet Evanovich and her number series of mysteries.

Terry, our hostess, sent:
Image: "Well Read" from MFT
Paper: Study All by Basic Grey, solid brown from DCWV, and Frigid from Fancy Pants
Accessories: CTMF baker's twine, Lone Star's buttons, Nailheads by Mark Richards, and ribbon from her stash.


Please check out the rest of the duel....the love luv too!!
