Gate Fold Card In The Shape of an ODBD Die

Gate Fold Card In The Shape of an ODBD Die

Special card folds is a category for the Splitcoaststampers.com Dirty Dozen June Theme, “Keeping Score”.  One of my favorite card folds is one that I created in 2013 and that is a gate fold card in the form of a die.  I have created many cards this way and thoroughly enjoy it.  This is a gate fold card in the shape of an ODBD die, the largest die from the Lavish Layers Dies.


2 Thessalonians 2:1-4

Apostle Paul’s letter to the Thessalonians says, “Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers, not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by some prophecy, report or letter supposed to have come from us, saying that the day of the Lord has already come.  Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come UNTIL [emphasis added] the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction.  He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.”

Altenew Beautiful Day

Altenew Beautiful Day

Flowers!!  Beautiful flowers come to my mind when springtime arrives.  It is a time when perennial plants emerge from the ground, grow, and bloom into beautiful flowers.  Thinking of this, my first card for the Dirty Dozen’s March monthly theme was to include flowers.  The card features the Aletnew Beautiful Day Stamp Set, and I could not release it until I finished my time as a Dirty Girl!


Ephesians 2:11-13

“Therefore, remember you who are Gentiles by birth and called “uncircumcised” by those who call themselves “the circumcision” (that done in the body by the hands of men) – remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Isreal and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world.  But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.”

Beach Scene Card – Blending Pencil Shavings Technique

The blending colored pencil shavings technique is one that I have not tried before creating this beach scene card.  I created the card for the Dirty Dozen Fan Club April Monthly Theme of  “Perfect Blend”.  It is a birthday card for my special grandson.


Romans 12:3

“For by the grace given me I say to every one of you:  Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you.”

Vera Bradley Inspiration Art Butterfly Card

Welcome, and thanks for stopping by to view my Vera Bradley Inspiration Art Butterfly Card!  Each Saturday on Splitcoaststampers.com, there is an inspiration challenge where a hostess selects a website from which challenge participants can draw inspiration for a card.  Last Saturday the hostess selected a fantastic and fashionable website  (i.e., Vera Bradley) for her Inspiration Challenge.  When I visited the site, I immediately saw a butterfly pattern that would be my inspiration piece.  This travel bag was the inspiration for my Vera Bradley Inspiration Art Butterfly Card.

Avery Elle Spring Bouquet Card

Avery Elle Spring Bouquet Card

My friends, I have completed my time as a Dirty Girl on Splitcoaststampers and can release cards I have made in the last six months.  This is one of those cards.  I made this card for my younger daughter for Mother’s Day.  The card features the Avery Elle Spring Bouquet Stamp Set.  In my neck of the woods, May and June are the months that we see our beautiful Lilie flowers bloom.  This is my younger daughter’s favorite flower.  Thus, I created this card for her from her three-year-old daughter (i.e., my precious granddaughter) for Mother’s Day.


Psalm 127:3

“Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward from Him.”

Little Angel Mother Whimsy Stamps

Little Angel Mother Whimsy Stamps – Happy Mother’s Day

Recall that I shared in Sunday’s post that I would share the Whimpsy Stamps Mother’s Day card that I made for my daughter this year.  Here it is.  I LOVE this card, especially the Little Angel Mother Whimsy Stamp image.  It reminds me so much of my daughter holding my special granddaughter, Mikayla, shortly after her birth.  When I saw the digital stamp on Whimsy Stamps site, I knew I had to have it because I saw my daughter and granddaughter in the image right away.  To that end, the image was too perfect to pass up.


Revelation 2:20-23

Nevertheless, I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess.  By her teaching, she misleads my servants into sexual immorality and the eating of food sacrificed to idols.  I have given her time to repent of her immorality, but she is unwilling.  So I will cast her on a bed of suffering and I will make those who commit adultery with her suffer intensely, unless they repent of their ways.  I will strike her children dead.  Then all the churches will know that I am he who searches hearts and minds, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.
