Back to traditional Christmas colors for my card today. I love the way the negative stamped greetings look on a card. And you don’t have to stamp it perfect for it to look fabulous, so that’s an added bonus. Especially when you are doing a stack of them all at once. The greetings that are […]
Christmas
‘Tis the season, another snowflake
Well it’s definitely not snowing in south Texas, although we are finally getting cooler weather! I wanted create a card to remind me of Christmas and snow. I started out with my new Swirly Snowflakes thinlits dies to create a card. I tried die cutting silver foil paper, white, and even the Night of Navy […]
Snowflakes, white on white with sparkles of gold!
As you know, I love colorful cards! But today’s card is a white on white with a touch of gold, very elegant and continues my non-traditional holiday color cards. I was inspired by last week’s FMS#309 sketch and used it as a starting point for this card. I’ve also been anxious to try out the […]

Today I’m sharing the card I made using the other large stamp, “Peace on Earth.” This greeting seems an appropriate one for the past month of natural (and manmade) disasters that have happened around the […]
A Lone Star Quilted Christmas
Another Lone Star quilt pattern, but this time as the focus of the card. Isn’t it gorgeous?! Too much work you say? Not so! This is one of the patterns from the Quilted Christmas DSP. There are 4 of these on one sheet so I cut them into 4 individual squares. And then the magic […]
My Jolly Friends thank you
As we draw near to the Christmas holidays, I always need thank you cards for the gifts we receive from family and friends.
