General Cards from Stash

Good day my crafty followers.
Today I have a couple quick and easy cards 
to show you.
I had some pages from an old planner that my 
daughter gave me, so I decided to use them
for cards.
I simply fussy cut some of the flowers and leaves
for this one and adhered them to a card base.
I stamped a sentiment on the front and was done.
For this one, I simply cut the page to size,
and adhered it to a card front.
I then used a die set to cut the hello and it's
shadow and adhered them to the front as well.
It's hard to see in these pictures, but these pieces
both have some beautiful gold foiling on them.
The vellum in the lower card is gold.
On the inside of this card, you can barely see some
trim on the inside of the card.  
I cut a piece of polkadot card stock from one of the
pages just to give it a little pop on the inside of the card.
I do love how these cards turned out.
They were quick and easy to make
and used some more of my never ending stash.

Thanks for stopping by today.
I hope you have been inspired in some way
and will come again soon.
Until then,
use some of your stash!

Trunk or Treat

Hello crafty loving friends!
My granddaughter's school had a "Trunk or Treat" 
and we participated.  We had so much fun.
Marie chose the theme for the trunk and she decided on
unicorn, which didn't surprise any of us.
She is obsessed with unicorns! 
Here is my creative part of the day.
I decided to do unicorn hair.
I used my Pebbles chalks and colored my hair.
Since my hair is mostly white and gray, it was simple.
Marie loved it and wants me to color it again
for her birthday party, which, of course, will
be unicorn themed.
Here are the kids with G-Pa aka Yoda
Marie was Miraculous Ladybug and
Asher was Hulk.
Sara was Sully.
We handed out some great snacks as well as
stamps and temporary tattoos.
There were over 400 kids there and we gave out all
of our goodies.
We all had a fun time and would definitely do this 
again.

Thanks for stopping by to see what I've been up to.
I hope you will come again soon.
Until then,
use your craft supplies in a different way.
