 Good Morning & Happy Fri-YAY!

Today I am sharing the last 2 calendars that I made for my clear picture frames.

I have been making these for about 12 years and as much as I like making them, they are alot of work. Here are my November & December pages....

November

Stamps: Hello Harvest (retired)

Ink: Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow

Cardstock: Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Basic White, Rustic Harvest DSP (retired)

December

Stamps: Hope & Peace (retired)

Ink: Pacific Point

Cardstock: Pacific Point, Basic White, Celebrate Everything DSP (retired Hostess)

Hope you enjoyed seeing my 2023 calendars!

I used a 4 x 6 clear acrylic picture frame and get my calendars from Taylored Expressions. 

I usually print out my calendars on Basic White cardstock but this year I found the tear off calendars at L&L Stamps in Ephrata, PA. so I just used them instead. 

It makes things go a bit faster!

Stamp Day Card #2

 Hello & Happy Tuesday!

Today I am sharing the next card that the girls made on Saturday at my Christmas Stamp Day w/ Friends get together. This one looks complicated but I had most of it ready for them so they only had to stamp & adhere it. We also did some heat embossing!

This card uses the Cottage Wreath bundle which is a big favorite of mine!

Plus it was recently announced that this bundle will be carrying over! YAY!

I used the Organic Beauty Dies to diecut that beautiful background with Gold Foil Paper. Then we stamped the wreath and then heat embossed the sentiment with Gold Embossing Powder. The bow on the wreath is diecut from the Country Wreaths Dies and lastly we added a few Gold Festive Pearls.

Card Details:

Stamps: Cottage Wreath, Hope & Peace

Ink: Garden Green, Real Red, Versamark

Cardstock: Real Red, Basic White, Gold Foil Paper

Accessories: Organic Beauty Dies, Country Wreaths Dies, Stitched Rectangle Framelits, Gold Embossing Powder, Heat Gun, Festive Pearls, Dimensionals, Adhesive Sheets

And this was Miss Emily's favorite card!!

Peace To You Card Set

 Hello & Happy Thursday!

It's to be a rainy day here in PA today so that means I will be getting somethings done at my stamp table! Yesterday I pulled out a new Christmas stamp set called Peace To You. It's a beautiful religious set that I have had for weeks and just now inked it up!

I sat and played with it and used Starry Sky ink and paired it with some new Snowflake Specialty Vellum. It's so pretty!

First I stamped my images using my Stamparatus so I could ink my stamp several times to get a good image. Once they dried I diecut them using the Stitched Nested Dies that are retired. They were the right shape! Next I stamped my sentiment from the new Hope & Peace stamp set. Another beauty! I diecut it out using the Seasonal Layers Dies. I added 2 Starry Sky Solid Faceted Gems to my sentiment label. Just enough to give my card some sparkle. Next I cut my Snowflake Specialty Vellum down to size and adhered it to a piece of Basic White cardstock. Surprising that the adhesive did not show thru! I attached that layer to my Starry Sky cardbase. Lastly, I added my stamped image and the sentiment panel and added my White Glittered bow with Glue Dots to finish it. I was floored by the Snowflake Specialty Vellum. It's so pretty!

Card Details:

Stamps: Peace To You, Hope & Peace

Ink: Starry Sky

Cardstock: Starry Sky, Basic White, Snowflake Specialty Vellum

Accessories: Stamparatus, Stitched Nested Dies (retired),Seasonal Layers Dies, White Glittered Ribbon, Solid Faceted Gems, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Stampin Seal, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

This set will go into my "Christmas Cards For Sale" basket!

I don't think they will be around long!
