Christmas Cheer

I know it isn’t even Halloween yet but it is never too early to start thinking about what Christmas cards you will be sending out this year! My inspiration for this card comes from Maggie Patterson.  It uses the Holiday Collection Framelits and the Sweet Essentials stamp set.  After using the Framelits and my Big Shot to cut out the tree, I glued ribbon behind the tree.  My star is punched out with the set Merry Minis in the Holday Catalog.  I used our beautiful silver glimmer paper. I cut my sentiment on a strip of paper and used one of my square punches at each end to get the little notches.  It is so cool when you can used a punch in a different way!

I am happy with this card but it is a tad plain to me.  I would like to try another one with an embossed front or perhaps a little bit of shimmer mist!

Thank you for stopping by today!  Don’t forget about my blog candy post – you can read about it HERE

Mini Treat Box

I’m back!! I’ve been (and still am) in New York.  My husband commutes to New York from Central California, where we live.  Because he commutes so much, we have an apartment in New York where I’ve been for the past ten days and I plan to continue my stay for a bit longer.  I have a growing stash of stamping supplies here so I’ve been stamping in between visitng the city!  It really is a FUN city. Today we went to Times Square to look for a onesie for our granddaughter, Audrey.  We also visited the M&M’s store and I bought some purple M&M’s!!  Just walking the streets is entertaining!
Onto what I’ve created for today! I saw this box on Dawn Olchefske’s site and knew that I immediately wanted to make one.  It really was quite easy. It’s a small box but you could tuck a small gift inside or some candy.  I wanted to use a thicker paper than DSP so I used a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock and stamped my images using the stamp set Day of Gratitude in Old Olive, Cajun Craze and More Mustard.
My sentiment was stamped on Very Vanilla but I think next time I might try using the Crumb Cake again.  If you would like to see a video by Dawn showing you how to put this box together, you can visit here.
Thanks so much for stopping by!  Please visit tomorrow to see how you can have a chance to win some blog candy!!!

Audrey Aurora

Last Tuesday, September 25th at 6:33 pm, my granddaughter, Audrey Aurora, was born to my daughter Erin and her husband, Tyler!  Once we knew Erin was in labor, my husband and I took about twenty minutes to load the car and began our 7 hour journey to the hospital. We made it before Audrey was born, which made me very happy!  She is a gorgeous baby and we are already in love with her. She is so precious and each morning it was a joy to see her again! We had to head home today and I am missing Erin and her little family terribly.  I think that between my husband and I, we took about 400 pictures so that will help! I took quite a few videos too. If you are a new parent or grandparent, I am sure you understand the need for so many pictures!!!
 
Needless to say, I took a little break from stamping to be with my new grandchild.  I will start creating again and posting very soon.  I had promised some blog candy so be looking for that in the near future!!
 
Take Care,
Tracy
