This quick and easy card was done with Warmth & Cheer DSP (my favorite) and a stamp from The Tin of Tags stamp set. I used the red plaid paper from the Warmth and Cheer DSP and layered it with an embossed design using the Holly Embossing Folder. I added the sentiment from the stamp …

Follow my blog with Bloglovin This is a very clean and simple card, made with the Penned and Painted stamp set and patterned paper from the DSP Subtles Collection. The great thing with this stamp set is the two step process, which gives such a realistic and contemporary look to it! I used the …
This card just makes me feel cozy every time I look at it! I think the two things that make this card so cozy looking is the Warmth and Cheer DSP matched with the Crumb Cake paper pushed through the Big Shot in the Cable Knit Embossing folder. I added a strip of each and …
