ODBD June Challenge

This month, we're linking up Miss You cards for the ODBD challenge. I've been working on a final box of cards for OWH, as they are finishing their mission as of August 1st. I have had such a great experience working with this organization and am grateful to have played a small part in the millions of moments of "happy" the cards have delivered.





This card was made with the Painted Petals and Something Lacey stamps from Stampin' Up! And the sentiment is from Avery Elle.

Hope you have an enjoyable day! Thanks for stopping by to take a look!

Blessings,
Shari B

It Moose be Love

Hello, crafty ones. There's a new Mid-month Throwdown at OWH, and here is my red, white and blue card creation!







I'm in the middle of a self imposed "scraps be gone" challenge. I keep a box of extra stamped and colored images, die cuts and assorted treasures that have not made it onto a card. I cleaned my craft room the other day and decided it was time to deal with it! Here's the before, after trying to spread things out and do some sorting:








Here are some of the cards I've completed using scraps, but I still have quite a ways to go. :)

























Thanks for stopping by to take a look! Have a wonderful day!

OWH Sketch Challenge #226

Hello, crafty ones. Playing along with the OWH Sketch Challenge today. I am trying to finish up a box of cards to ship to OWH, and this week's sketch worked great with this moose from the Campin' Critters Cricut cartridge.






I haven't been posting many cards lately, so thought I'd share some of the other cards I've made with Campin' Critters.

















I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend! Thanks for stopping by to take a look!

OWH Sketch Challenge #222: Happy Birthday to Me!

I love my sister, and I love that she gave me some new stamp sets for my birthday to make my own birthday card! She also gave me a GORGEOUS piece of fabric and let me decide what she should make with it! :)

Today I'm playing with one of the stamp sets, copic markers, Cuttlebug Geometric embossing folder, paper from Basic Grey Mint Julep and sketch 222 from Operation Write Home.




Here's a second card I made last night using the same supplies. The stamp set is Red and Goldie from Avery Elle. So nice to have a local scrapbook store where I can get quality supplies and leave my birthday wish list with the store owner! Ha!



I hope you're having a wonderful day! Thanks for stopping by to take a look!

Blessings,
Shari B

p.s. I decided on a tote bag with my blog name embroidered on it!

OWH Sketch Challenge 220: You are my anchor!

Playing along today with OWH Sketch Challenge #220. This one looked complicated but was really fun to try!





I used the new Float My Boat stamp set from Lawn Fawn, Night of Navy ink and cardstock from SU! and DP from DCWV Summer Magic stack. I really wanted to add some brads or pearl pen, but didn't have the courage! I liked what I had going and didn't want to throw things out of kilter! Ha!

Hope you're having a great day. Thanks for stopping by!

Blessings,
