Thankful Thursday and One Wild Pop-Up

Hi, everyone!

I'm here with a pop-up card inspired by the Wild Card Online Card Class. But, first an SAS4Kids card and Thankful Thursday.

SAS4Kids

As always, I'm thankful for our SAS4Kids card makers.

This week, I received seven adorable Halloween cards, with coordinating envelopes and liners, from Any Jordan of TX. Thanks so much, Amy!

Thankful Thursday

This week, I'm extremely thankful to be safe at home with hubby and pup. I'm also so thankful to hear that our HHI home is fine -- perfectly fine. 

Sadly, the rest of the island has not fared as well. Thoughts and prayers to those rebuilding their homes. Deepest gratitude to all those first responders working to rebuild our beloved island.

A Wild Pop-Up Card

I wasn't quite sure I'd be able to make this work because I don't have any of those easy, peasy pop-up dies. So, for the pop-up insert, I scored and folded as usual, used the cut-out pup to measure the size of my two pop-up elements, and hand cut out the pop ups. This actually worked pretty well, although I think I need to go with a lesser weight paper next time.

The top pic is the front of the card, the bottom is the pop-insert.

Strathmore watercolor paper; Neenah Soler white; Stampin' Up! whisper white; Recollections black
Tim Holtz Crazy Dogs, stamped in StazOn jet black and colored with Prismacolor pencils

Parting Thoughts

Speaking of pups, we have an adopt-a-shelter-dog-inspired challenge over at Words 2 Craft By... and we'd love for you to play along.  :)

Off to a family reunion with Dad. Going to get to visit with my brother and his family!

I'm not sure when I'll be signing back on. So, have a great weekend!
As always, thanks for stopping and happy scrappin'!
