2013 Banner

Today as we took down our Christmas decorations, everything became a little bare.  I knew we needed some type of decoration for the new year so I quickly put this banner together.

How do you decorate for New Year's Eve or do you go straight to Valentine's decor?

Tree with some sparkle

This was one of my favorite cards from November's Stamp-a-Stack class!  Be sure to join me in January for our next Stamp-a-Stack.  The tree is stamped with Garden Green ink, I wiped off the bottom of the tree and the ground with a blender pen, and then I colored those parts in with a marker...ta-da...perfectly stamped tree!  The Silver Glimmer paper adds just the right effect to this card!  Order your supplies here.

Digital Christmas Card

This year's Christmas card was created using MDS!  I had these printed as a 4x6 print and then trimmed them to fit on a piece of Whisper White CS.  The perfect card to creaet over 100+ very easily :)  Check out today's downloads!

Tags

Saturday was a cloudy, rainy day.  I spent most of the morning creating these tags for our church.

I have a lot of fun creating and making each tag just a little bit different.  Which tag is your favorite?

Christmas Ribbon Card

 YEAH!!!  300 items have been added to the clearance rack!  For the first time, stamps have been added.  Check it out here!  Order online.  Today's card was created from a birthday card sketch that was originally made with ribbon.  I decided to make it a Christmas card and use DSP.

Such an easy duplicate-able card!  Order your supplies here.

Spritzed Tree

I love this card!  It's created simply by cutting out the tree using the Holiday Collection Framelits, lay the tree over the Very Vanilla CS, and spritz with the Stampin' Spritzer filled with Wild Wasabi ink, Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint, and rubbing alcohol.  Order your supplies here.

Christmas Window

Today's card uses a framelit as well as an impressions folder.  I love the idea of cutting out a window with a framelit, impress it with an impressions folder, and then lining it with DSP (ribbon...or anything else you can think of).  I layered a cardstock strip over it as well as added an accent piece with punches.  Lots of combinations with the card sketch layout.  Order your supplies here.
