This card was kind of a surprise for me! It came from a request from a colleague of my husband and it was not the kind of request I was used to! His requirements were simple…. a holiday card – without any reference to anything ‘holiday’. He did want the word ‘Love’ and a ‘Teddy …
I know we are all so busy at this time of year, but I wanted to remind you all that we need to be good to ourselves also! Take another look at these crazy discounts that are available only while supplies last! Some of them are 60% off! 🙂 If you don’t have a catalog …
This is a sample card that I will be using to demonstrate a project at my next ‘Girls Stamping Club’ this week. This card was made as an alternative design to the October Paper Pumpkin kit! The great thing about these kits is that you have everything you need to make 8 cards or paper …
These gift tags were so simple and quick to make. I am adding them into some customer Christmas cards as a thank you for their support throughout the year! These tags were made with just one stamp set – Tin of Tags! I randomly stamped the snowflake image on the Kraft card stock (after using …

I was on a roll with using a sticky note to give the illusion of a hillside backdrop (to see how I did it, see the previous post – Christmas Wishes), and I think I like the way this one came out even better! I used the single tree stamp from the Thoughtful Branches stamp …
With the use of a sticky note, I could get the card to pop a little by adding the illusion of hills in the background. I used the trio of trees from the Thoughtful Branches stamp set and the sentiment is from the Holly Berry Happiness stamp set. In order to get the look of …
