Today’s Christmas card uses Night of Navy, Whisper White and Silver to make this wintery scene. I keep hoping for cooler temperatures – not freezing, remember I’m a Texas girl at heart, but 50-60’s would be nice. Even 70’s are sounding good right about now! This card was created with the dotted Christmas tree stamp […]
Holiday Catalog
Trees in the snow, but thank goodness not in Houston!
I know, I’ve been talking about cooler temperatures, but I don’t want snow! That’s why I live in Texas, usually no snow! I’m back to traditional Christmas colors of red and green for this Christmas card. This card uses the Perfect Pines framelits dies to cut 2 different size trees. I used 2 of the other dies […]
Gold adds sparkle to Christmas Holly wreath
Yesterday’s cards and a design from the Stampin’ Up ! annual catalog inspired this card. This time I used the Holly Berry design from the Home for Christmas DSP and cut out the wreath with the Wonderful Wreath framelit dies. I needed a small print that would complement the Holly Berry paper. Back to my retired […]
One Sheet Wonder Christmas card
I love it when other Stampin’ Up! demo’s blogs I follow post a card that sparks all kinds of ideas for me! One of my favorite ladies, Angie Juda at Chic n Scratch showcased her “One Sheet Wonder” this past week which makes a whole set of Christmas cards. Since I’m working on my Stamp A Stack Christmas card classes, I drawn […]
Halloween Boo to You
Yesterday I posted my first Fall card of the season. And right in the middle of fall we celebrate…Halloween. Even though I don’t tend to make many Halloween cards, this design was just calling to me! The Happy Scenes bundle helped me quickly create the spooky scene. I found some retired paper with the black birds in my […]
Season change – Fall time is officially here
I’ve been showing you my Christmas card creations from last weekend, but I thought it was time to come back to the current season – Fall! And what better way to highlight beautiful fall colors than to use the new Happy Scenes stamp set with the coordinating Hearth & Home thinlets dies. Even better, you can order them as […]
It’s Fall? Not according to my thermometer!
Where did last week go? It can’t be Tuesday and it definitely can’t be fall already!!??!! I hope our Texas temperatures catch on quickly that they are supposed to be dropping. In the 90’s just isn’t conducive to feeling the “fall” weather! I thought I’d help the weatherman along and create some Christmas cards in hopes the […]
Ah…back in my craft room, finally!
I finally made it back into my craft room this weekend after over a week of no paper crafting. How did I manage you ask? Not sure, but it felt great to have spent most of the weekend making new projects! I opened my new Watercolor Wishes card kit and it’s so pretty, pictures don’t […]
Handmade for the Holidays – lots of choices
This year’s holiday catalog has 17, yes 17 bundles that include a stamp set with either a coordinating punch or framelit dies (and saves you 15%)! Where to start, where to start…oh so many options. So far my favorite is actually 2 – the Festive Fireplace bundle and Happy Scenes bundle! So many ways to use them, they are […]
