Day 8 G
good morning all
from Jacqui M
thought i will try to see if loading in the mornings is better than my night time to load my cards
today is the letter G
G is for Ginger man
they say ginger is very good if you get travel sickness but i dont like it that much, just the same , avoid ginger biscuits and dont have ginger men houses in the house at Christmas
so have made a card it don't smell lol
i have just cut the ginger man paper to 5.3/4 " X 4 inches to cover the card. then added a tag on top with foam tape,
added 3 ginger men different sizes to get them off my shelf and into post
have fun creating today and every day

DAY 7 TODAY IS THE LETTER F
GOOD EVENING
here today ive created a quick card as been out most of the day, but will try to keep up
so today letter is F
so my card is a FIREPLACE really had to think about this one as in Australia in Queensland we don't have fireplaces
my card is fairly simple tonight using green cardstock then a lighter shade above,
then patterned papers with poinsettias on, love these after gluing on i thought , gee hope i have some more for the letter P but have a few days to look for some more papers in my stash

non alphabet letters colours together - 6th November 2026
Well day 6 of Beccys Card Challenge
Jacqui M - colour combo red, green and purple
today for a change we are not going with the alphabet instead using a colour palette
my chosen colours are red, green and purple what a combo but will see how we go .
seeing there are colours i don't own a lot , i will just go with the flow as what i do have in my cupboards
here i have green cardstock which i ve trimmed to 8" x 6" then scored at 4 "
next, i cut off 2" off one side, this maybe used for something else down the track
next i trimmed 1/34 "X 5.3/4 " of red patterned papers from Lindy Lou paper collection this is A4 and placed on the short part of the front of the card
next cut green patterned paper to 3.1/2" X 5. 3/4" and place on the inside of your card at the right hand side so you can see both pretty papers
added xmas tree to the left hand side .
seeing i needed purple to add to my mix went though all my purple cardstock looking for the right shade
trimmed to 2 " x 3.1/2" and and glued to the left hand side only .
then added merry Christmas on top.

D IS FOR DOME AND DEER CARD CHALLENGE
GOOD AFTERNOON ALL
With a day at home what can i do with the letter D for Beccys Card Challenge November 2026.
Today we are up to day 4 which is D
i have lot of things that i need to use instead of just admiring these so why not get started
1st i have a junk journaling book . Looked for some paper then saw the dome , perfect
just a standard white card 5. 3/4" x 4 .1/4 "
trim patterned paper to 5.1/2" x 4" tape in place
cut out the dome and cut out across the line in the middle so that we can add the deer.
the deer is from Bee Arty Mini collection Woodland Wishes such a pretty range with lots of cut out animals on
i punched out with my circle punch. as i don't fuzzy cut much, if there's
a easier way to do i do it rather than fussy cut and hurt my hand
slide the bottom of the deer under the cut section like hes in the snow.
i found December magic in the art journaling book perfect
All start with D
having so much fun looking for things in my room
A is for Acetate
its been years since I've worked on challenges
but am going to try Beccy's November card challenge 2026 , now i most likely miss days as i wont be in my craft room but that's life but some are better than none
A well acetate is my only thought as its on the table waiting to be put away why not use some of it
i grabbed my 4" x 5 .3/4" card and with pencil and ruler measured, from score line 1" down then from the bottom edge 1 " up cut off these 2 pieces
Acetate trim to 5.3/4" x 3. 5 inch and glue on the inner side of card,
add the inch cardstock back on for strength then add your
trim 4 pieces of patterned papers 1 " x 5.3/4" and tape/ glue one on the top and one at the bottom then flip card and do the same on the other side so you are hiding the edges of the acetate.
stamp your preferred image and tape to the inside of your card
add title and string bling and place on the front of your card
card complete.
