October 2022 COTM

Got my name thank you, Wendy! ….. the flower child

I got a pretty card the other day from Wendy! Thank you Wendy!….. the flower child

COTM:October 2022 TITLE: hello Username: Wendy, keywords: British magazine paper Judi-kin’s chickadee stamp so very pretty 

Awwww love that little birdie!! Such a cute composition!!

I received my card from DebRN.  Such soothing colors. Funny how blues and greens seem to make ya feel calm.  Debbie added notes as to how she composed this card…paper made from a Gelli pad and Distressed inks, main image from Stamperia decoupage, and the side embellishment from a received envelope. So nice making a greeting using DIY decorated papers, and  repurposed parts and pieces. Yes these swaps are fun but best of all…”feels good being creative,” especially knowing how much we all enjoy each other’s little works of art!

Awwww thank you Blossom. I was so proud of myself because I sent Yankee’s card early in the month. BUT as the end of the month was coming up, I realized she didn’t get it. I thought maybe the card got eaten by the mailbox. So I told her I’d send a duplicate card. I tend to scan the cards as I send them, but somehow I didn’t annotate the card I sent, so she got the card I sent to my Mother-in-Law!! I wonder why she got both cards on the same day…hahaaaa, “It’s a mystery.” :O)

So many gorgeous, creative cards this month.
Wendy, love the bird, message and the decorative paper works wonderfully with the sweet bird!

Judi, love the ghoulish card with the eyes around the card.  So fun!  Also love the Victorian feel of the second card.  Love the swirls of color.  And, time does, it seems, fly  the older we get, right?

Lois, always love your cards and wonderful use of die-cuts.
Stay safe and healthy, hugs DebRN

Sheila-Rose sent me this replacement COTM.  This was very kind of you Sheila-Rose.  Some person somewhere was the lucky recipient of your first card, wherever it was delivered to.  HaHa!  Hope you are feeling well and can get back to cardmaking soon.  Stay safe and healthy, hugs, DebRN
