I made this card for a dear little girl for Tuesday's Teapot challenge to send smiles to her and her grandmother. Check it out. I'm sure she could use a lot of encouragement.
I purchased a Cricut Joy for myself...a Covid Pity Me gift! LOL I created this card with one of their "Insert Cards." I still love old fashioned stamping. I colored it and added glitter! I hope it brings her some cheer. Chocolate cupcakes can always cheer me up!

That little penguin is a real cutie, and the sparkly corners are such fun.
Well done you on treating yourself. I have a feeling that if DH added up the things he bought because "think of all I've saved on commuting and coffee" it would probably add up to more than he saved - but this is definitely a time to be nice to yourself.

So cute -- I am sure this will make Jennifer smile wide, just like I'm doing right now. I love the textured paper and the way it shows through the coloring. And the fun rainbow banner just adds to the joy. Congrats on your purchase and high-five for treating yourself. You have already put it to good use bringing cheer to this young lady. Fun, fun card. And, I wish I had a chocolate cupcake right now...I LOVE baked goods.

So darn sweet, Gracie. Some great cut outs and an adorable image! Old fashioned stamping is the best but looks even better when you have fun toys like your new one. Hugz
