The image is a Whimsy stamp titled Mariposa Digital Stamp by Sylvia Zet  I love Sylvia's images, they make such wonderful children cards. I  used Stampin' Up cardstock, circle die cuts, a banner punch, and a 'love' stamp. The pink cardstock was wet embossed.

Hope this post finds everyone safe and happy. It has been a long haul and I cannot wait for things to return to normal (if there is such a thing). I totally dislike the mask yet realize it's importance, miss the visiting of friends and family from out of town, hate feeling like a criminal going down the wrong aisle, I just miss the normal!! Now having said all that I am happy, I am in good health and certainly wish to remain that way LOL.

Crafty Cardmakers Challenge #260 Create Your Own Background, what a fun challenge this is. I created my background by filling a dish with foam shaving cream, adding a few ink drops of different green shades to it, and stirred it very gently. I placed my sheet of white cardstock onto the foam and this was the end result.

This card is for a brother-in-law who is hitting the big one and he is officially becoming an

A tri shutter wedding card for my niece, using the colours she had chosen (black, white and green) for her wedding. I love tri shutter cards but very seldom make them, but for this occasion, I thought it was an appropriate fold. I have had this card in my non published file for a while and decided this was a good time to post it.  The sentiment is a very old Lexi's Creations digital one I have had for many years.

I made this album to give to my older sister for her April birthday, however, a nasty little thing called a coronavirus decided to explore our planet and cancel our get together. So, we agreed to celebrate when things return to some normalcy. The waterfall pages contain sentiments and pictures of the two of us through the decades.

Kim is hosting today's challenge and the theme is Celebrations
ATG. As usual, anything you care to enter is fine, a card, scrap layout, mixed media piece,  some home decor as long as it meets the 'Celebrations' theme.

I choose to celebrate a best friend who I have known since grade 9, oh so many years ago. I have made this card while in COVID-19 seclusion and sent it to her as a small attempt to bring some cheer during this Shut Down of 2020, a just because  card.

I used a die-cut for the black swirls and the frame of the burlap sentiment which came from an old paper pack. The tag came from my stash, origin unknown. The stamped words on the tag are from Stampin Ups 'Amazing You' and ' Express Yourself' stamp sets.

Have a great shut-in- day!
