Here’s a little music to take you into the weekend. This card was created with the Merry Music Specialty designer series paper and the Swirly Snowflakes Thinlits dies. It’s a study in black and white for a little Christmas spirit. I backed the row of snowflakes with a combination of our Whisper White Classic weave […]

CHRISTMAS HAPPINESS – FRAMED
It’s back to Christmas cards for today’s post and I’m using the Christmas Happiness stamp set for this lovely, framed picture. The Pretty Pines Thinlits dies worked perfectly for this card – the only stamping involved is the greeting! I followed along with The Paper Players Holiday Pines challenge and am pretty sure that this […]
MERRY MISTLETOE BRINGS CHRISTMAS HAPPINESS
Today I’m showing a study in black and white with a sprig of merry mistletoe. I love the contrast of the colour on the black and white base and I did fussy cut that sprig of mistletoe and the small acorn. The sprays of pine where stamped with Old Olive ink and then I used […]

I cut the tree bundle twice from the thick cardstock and one of […]
SIMPLE GIFTS
Welcome to another edition of Christmas on my blog! Today’s card is simple with a bit of a slant. CAS(E) this Sketch has a pretty slanted (lol) sketch to play along with this week so I pulled two patterns from the Christmas Around the World Designer series paper to start. I cut them out with […]
JOY & WONDER FOR THE SEASON
Today’s card sends out joy and wonder for the Christmas season using the Christmas Happiness stamp set(144868). I kept it simple so I could play along with the sketch from Create with Connie & Mary. I stamped the pine spray twice with Old Olive ink to give it a thicker look and then added those […]
GLITTERY SNOWFLAKES TO MAKE YOU SMILE
Hello to a fresh new week and some glittery snowflakes to make you smile. I started out with a completely different idea for Freshly Made Sketches, but since it is frosty outside, decided that these gold embossed snowflakes should be the way to go. TIP: Make sure to give the cardstock a good wipe with […]
