How cute are these?? I just love this card! His shoes were made using the Top Note Die in the Big Shot! After I cut the shape out, I cut it horizontally in half and then in half vertically so I ended up with four pieces. I used the Ornament punch as well as the 3/4 inch Circle punch to shape them into elf shoes! The tops of his shoes were made with Glimmer paper and the 1/2 Circle punch. Don’t these shoes put a smile on your face and put you in the holiday mood?

Another card today from my card class on Friday. I stamped the pine needles using the stamp set, Watercolor Winter. Some of the pine needles look lighter because I stamped off on my grid paper several times before stamping on my card. I used my 2-way glue pen to add Dazzling Diamonds (glitter) to the pine needles. I love the sparkle! Each ornament is popped up with dimensionals. Did you notice the Silver Glimmer paper at the very top of each ornament? My inspiration for this card came from Stamping and Blogging, a new online site with great ideas to get my creative juices flowing!

Today I have another card that we made on Friday night. This type of card is called a Tri-Fold Shutter. We used the Be of Good Cheer DSP. I especially like the red and white paper on the side panels. My little gingerbread man came from the set Jolly Bingo Bits. There are so many different stamps in this set! Another nice thing about this card is that it folds up and fits inside a regular sized envelope.
Thank you for stopping by!

Here’s another version of my card from yesterday. My colors are the same but this time I mounted my paper onto Old Olive and put the pieces in different places. You can have many different cards just by changing up the colors and placement!
I have a Stamp a Stack class tonight and I am really looking forward to it. I enjoy sitting around a table and stamping with friends! I will post the cards we made next week! Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!!

Last week I needed several thank you cards so I made them very similar but different. I stamped my white paper pretty much the same but I changed each card up with different colors of cardstock. This one uses Cajun Craze and Old Olive. The set is French Foliage, which I never get tired of using. I hope my recipient enjoyed the card! I’ll post another one tomorrow! Enjoy your day!

Today I have another card for you that we made at my Hostess Clubs last week. I think this card is so pretty in person! The leaves were embossed with clear embossing powder using the large flower in Betsy’s Blossoms. I learned this technique at the Stampin’ Up! Conference from our co-founder Shelli Gardner (stamping an image with a stamp and then cutting it out with a different punch or die). Then I used my Autumn Accents die, cut them out and popped them up with dimensionals. Several of my stamp club attendees commented that they they liked the size of the card (7 x 3 1/4)! I too enjoy a card that isn’t the traditional size. My greeting is from Sweet Essentials.

Today is Election Day! I voted last week (I actually always do an absentee ballot).
I love this card! Normally I don’t care for a card that is all one color of cardstock but this one is so pretty in Crumb Cake. I think the little bit of glitter on the pine needles finishes the card perfectly! I visited Dawn Olchefske’s site and just had to CASE her card. I have a few minor changes. I passed this stamp set up – Watercolor Winter – but it is fast becoming a favorite of mine! The stamp set that I used for my sentiment is Greetings of the Season. (Oops, sometimes even after editing numerous times we don’t see mistakes until we’ve read something the tenth time! I meant to say that Watercolor Winter “didn’t speak to me” at first but after seeing so many beautiful cards made with it, I just had to have it!!)
Thank you for stopping by! If you have any questions, please let me know!!
