I am so glad that you're here! It's Saturday and I'm enjoying an easy at home day. Just ate some of those grilled burgers that I had a hankering for yesterday, and spent a bit of time playing with Home Sweet Home (from SSS.)
No dies, just scissors. Plus stamps paper and ink. It felt good to create simply today and using these cute Waffle Craft papers made it extra nice.
I love the sentiment on this one, it made me choke up a bit. It's been awhile since I've seen family and I do really miss getting out to do the things we used to do.
I thought the lineup of rainbow stripes worked well for the layout at Freshly Made Sketches.
Keeping with the colors in the paper, I stamped the houses over it and colored with Copics in the same shades. One of the great things about Waffle Flower papers is that their packs are 5.5. x 8.5 so you get two cards from each sheet. At 80 lbs the paper is able to stand up well for coloring, heating, or embossing. I added clear Nuvo drops to the hearts for shine.
For the second card, I used a blade to cut out the rectangle, using the printed frame of the paper to cover the pattern with the clouds and birds. Sending hugs Special Delivery is a nice thought for any time of year. Nuvo drops for the plane, a bit of shimmer on the sign, and a few enamel dots for embellishment. That is all.
I will also enter the SSS Challenge to Layer it Up. Hope you enjoy whatever the day brings you!

The rainbow stripes are perfect! Sweet card! I bought that kit as well but haven’t used the patterned paper yet......why do I do that?!?
Two adorable cards Cindy!
Wonderful cards, Cindy! Love how you used the postal theme in your pink card and how you colored with copics on your rainbow card! I certainly know the feeling of missing family and friends. Your delightful cards will make 2 somebodies (who are also missing family and friends) smile.
I love your rainbow sky with the houses done so simply! Such a cute design. Also adorable is your second card with the pink cloudy sky. I know what you mean about missing family. We are finally seeing our son for the first time since Christmas 2019. It just shouldn't be like this!
What a beautiful card! I just love that rainbow of colour and those sweet hearts! What a great sentiment as well! Thanks for joining us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
Love the way you colored the houses to reinforce the stripes! Thanks for playing along with us at FMS!
I love the cheerful rainbow of colors with your little scene. Just right with the sentiment! Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
