Tag #4 was inspired by some tags I made earlier in the week.  I really had to stretch the DSP on these ten tag cards to create ten.  :)  Love how the colors just feel like Christmas!  This may be the last post of the year for me...time to enjoy the holidays with family!  Merry Christmas! Order your supplies here.

Ornament Hanging on the tree

Seems like this year's theme was Christmas Trees :)  This is tag card #3.  The branch is created by stamping the tree from Lovely As a Tree sideways.  Isn't that clever?  This idea has been floating around the internet the past couple of months...I'm not even sure who to actually give credit for it because I've seen it so much.  Love it when you can use a stamp for multiple images!!!  Order your supplies here.

Project #2

Finished another of my projects earlier this week as well to get it in the mail.  Even though this isn't Stampin' Up! products, it's my love for stamping that I created these fun projects.  These are for the headstones of her family members' who have passed away.
Just a fun little way to remember them.  :)  I ordered the "stamps" from Harbor Freight Tools.

Project

I always feel like the last two weeks of Christmas I'm always scrambling around to finish up on my Christmas projects that I have planned.  One of the projects I've been working on has finally been finished.  Here's a sample of that project...

The busy-ness of December is keeping me extremely busy...hence the lack of posts on this blog and the over abundance of posts on my family blog :)  Oh, well!!  That's why I love my job.  I had created this tag set for December's stamp camp. 
I ended up not teaching the class because of how busy everyone else was...but it was perfect for a last minute gift when I realized it was our last day of preschool on Friday.  I think I need to make a few more of these tag packages!  Order your supplies here.

Christmas Tree

It was tradition in my family to cut down our Christmas tree on Thanksgiving morning.  You never knew how much snow you would have to walk through to find the perfect Christmas tree.  It was always great fun.  We never set up our tree that early because the tree had to defrost for a few days (or even a week or two) before we could bring it in the house.  This card base was created using the scallop square die.  Just fold your CS in half and lay it on top of the die just below the scallops.  The hemp twine got squished down in this picture but the card does have a "Merry Christmas" greeting stamped on it :)  Order your supplies here.

Impressed Embossed Hearts

This is a fun technique I've seen recently.  You use the Square Lattice die to not only emboss your card front but to impress punched images onto your card front as well.  I found it makes it a bit easier if you attach the hearts with just a bit of adhesive so they don't move once you put them in the Impressions Folder.  This was a birthday card I sent at the first of the month.  I've only tried it with the Square Lattice die so far...but I plan to try it with come of the other Impressions Folders soon.  Order your supplies here.

Fabric Fun Again

I love the fabric pins so I HAD to come up with a card that would allow the flower to be removable as well.  I attached the fabric around the card front and tie the side with the crochet trim.  I tied the flower on to the fabric as well with the same crochet trim.  Makes it perfect for a gift card :)  Order your supplies here.

Top Note Take Two

November is another CRAZY, busy birthday month for us so when I had my supplies out for yesterday's card, I couldn't help but think about how I could use the same design for a birthday card.  This card is for my SIL.  She loves Halloween so it seemed like it was an obvious choice to use this leftover piece of DSP from the Halloween paper pack Wicked Cool.  I spritzed the crumpled flower with Vanilla Smooch Spritz to add the perfect glittery effect with the glitter brad!  Order your supplies here.
