We will definitely have snow for Christmas! The challenge is however, will it be warm enough to build a snowman? Look at that handsome snowman! Basic Grey was used to stamp the image and then an assortment of Stampin’ Write Markers to add colour. I wanted to show just the top part of this guy […]

PRIZED PEONY
Today I had a chance to play with the “new to me” Prized Peony stamp set(152504). I love peonies and am seriously considering planting a bush next spring. This peony was created by Heat Embossing the image with White Emboss powder and then adding the colour with a Blending Brush(Emboss Resist Technique). The matching Peony Dies(152701) […]
NOEL
Time is moving along quickly and I’m still stocking up with “Noel” cards for the Christmas season. Today’s features two lovely pine cone patterns from the Painted Christmas Designer paper(156292)! I had dun with the layers and went “all in” by adding 3 strips of the Real Red Mini Ruffled Ribbon(156323). This ribbon is going […]
SHINE PUMPKIN, SHINE
Hello on this sunny Friday. I’ve stepped away from Christmas and back into autumn to show off some shiny pumpkins! And all in a row they are sitting on a Slimline card! After stamping the pumpkin images in Pumpkin Pie(no pun intended, lol) I stamped them again with Versamark and heat embossed them with Clear […]
FOR A GRAND KID
OK, it’s Friday and it’s a bright one! I went with red and blue for today’s card for a terrific grandkid! All of the sentiments in the A Grand Kid(152500) stamp set are terrific and any one of them applies to my grandchildren! This layout from Freshly Made Sketches was the starting point and what […]
SPOOKY BOOS TO YOU
LOL, there’s some more spookiness happening here to day! I found the Cat Punch(144666) and added some feline flavour to today’s card. This is supposed to be a “spooky” card but those cats add a little cuteness don’t you think? I added some Basic Rhinestones for their eyes( I just can’t do eyeless). This great […]
SNOWFLAKE WISHES
No, that title doesn’t mean that I want it to snow yet – but it does send a great Christmas greeting! The Peaceful Place Specialty designer paper(156394) has some really beautiful designs so I pulled out this snowflake covered piece to start with. Then added a couple of snowflakes from the Wonderful Snowflakes package(156340). This […]
PRETTY PUMPKINS FOR THE FALL SEASON
The leaves have started to fall and the pumpkins are ready! So why not create a pumpkin card with Pretty Pumpkins Bundle! This is a smaller slimline card that measures 6-1/4″x 3-1/4″(cut cardstock at 6-1/4″ x 6-1/2″ and score at 3-1/4″) I had fun with the Basic Border dies and topped it up with a […]
