A Merry Little Christmas

Here is another one of my Christmas cards that I am sending out this season. Very traditional colors for this one. I just love the embossing folder! It looks like little poinsettia leaves, and is so super elegant in white! The ribbon is double sided which makes it so versatile! The other side is polka dots!

The sentiment is embossed with Iridescent Ice Embossing powder. Can't have a Christmas card without a little sparkle!

Stamp Set: Christmas Punch

Ink: Versamark

Paper: Garden Green, Real Red, Whisper White

Accessories: Real Red Ribbon, Petals a plenty Embossing Folder, Large Oval Punch, Dimesionals, Big Shot

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to all! What a great day to thank all those wonderful people in your life! Today the meal is at my house. (come on by, I'm sure there will be lots of extra food!)

Hopefully these cards made it to everyone on time - they get mailed out a little late since we were out of town last weekend.

Christmas stamp a stack class

This class is a perfect opportunity for those of you who want to send out homemade Christmas cards, but don't have the time, don't have the resources, or simply want someone else to design them. Well, this is the ticket.

Here is the skinny for the class: Will be held at my place on December 2, at 6:30 p.m. All you need to bring is your adhesive. (don't have any? I can help with that!). I will have supplies for you to make 4 each of the following designs. What is the cost? Only $16. Pretty cheap, huh? That is a buck a card!

RSVP to me by Sunday the 29th so I can get all the supplies ready! (you can make multiples if you want too!) Hope to see you there!

Let it Snow

Here is a little Christmas card that I did. I just love this stamp set, and is so fun to color! I put a little Liquid Applique on the snowman and puffed it up with my embossing gun. Boy is that fun! I also ran the white layer through my Big Shot. You can't see real well in the photo, but it has little dots (like snowflakes).

Are you ready for Christmas cards yet?
