Good Evening!
Well, it's been longer than I'd planned to have another post here. Luckily I will have a few this week. Here's the first one:
Thanks for visiting my blog and I hope you return again soon!

Good Evening!
Happy Easter!
I have one Easter card to share before the holiday leaves...
I have one more post for today. As I've been trying to get crafty more regularly again, I've been sorting through ALOT of handmade backgrounds from my stash to finally use. These cards are from one of those - using alcohol inked iridescent cardstock. I used the Eternal Flame Cover Plate by Catherine Pooler Designs(CP Designs). Unfortunately I forgot to use some Press n Seal to keep all the negative pieces in place to stick on the other card base. So, it took me an entire evening to get them all pieced in the right places for the negative one. WHEW! lol. And, yes, there is a crystal gem missing on the one diamond birthday card, but that has been resolved. Just too lazy to retake photos.
Thanks for visiting. Come back soon!
One more card for St. Patrick's Day!
This one uses up the rest of the alcohol inked vellum background that I used in the card from the last post. I had a pretty good sized piece. This time, I cut out a shamrock in the middle, added the word die, layered, and popped up a stitched layer.
Well, hello there!
It's been a very long time since I shared anything here on my blog. Life has been busy in the Salkeld's Sweet Suite. I have had some crafty time here and there but just haven't spent much time to blog. Finally, I have had time to even play in a few challenges!
Tomorrow is St. Patrick's Day and so I have made a couple St. Patrick's cards. Our neighbors have an annual St. Patrick's party and so one of my cards goes to them. This card I made using the sketch at AAA Cards latest challenge.
Well Hello there!
It's been a good minute since I shared anything here! Life has been a little chaotic in the Salkeld Suite this year. I've been able to craft a little here and there but not as much as I'd like and definitely haven't had the time to share things.
Our Ellie has had a year herself, which wound up with her being on bedrest/confined, went through physical therapy and ultimately, knee surgery, which entailed more confinement and more recuperation for her. So that in turn increased her humans responsibilities in caring for her convalescence. Now she is fully healed and running around like her normal wild self. Now both cats are going through their own issues that have required multiple vet visits and meds. The hubs and I are just trying to keep the chaos down to a minimum at this point. So it makes crafting more challenging.
This is a card I created for my Stamp Nation penpal. I pulled out a background made two years ago using the "leaf painting" technique and a gel plate. I added some gold splatters to it, stamped a sentiment and then added the braided frame (Fall Frames Dies by Catherine Pooler). Ive been trying to use up background pieces I've had sitting in my UFO box.
Good Morning, Monday!
Hope you had a good holiday weekend and spring break if you partook!
Sunflower Blessings!
