Snowflake Wishes Thank You

 Hello & Happy Wednesday!

Today I am sharing some Thank You cards I made for customers earlier this month.

I always try to send a thank you note with their receipt included to let them know how much I appreciate their orders! I used products from the Snowflake Splendor Suite for them.

These were not the best pictures and I tried to doctor them up the best I could.

I love the texture that the embossing folder adds to this!

Isn't that DSP so pretty? And that ribbon is quite different!

It's a very stiff ribbon but oh so sparkly!

Card Details:

Stamps: Snowflake Wishes

Ink: Pool Party

Cardstock: Thick Whisper White, Pool Party, Whisper White, Snowflake Splendor DSP

Accessories: Circle Layering Framelits, Winter Snow EF, Snowflake Splendor Ribbon, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I'm thrilled that the Snowflake Wishes stamp set & the So Many Snowflakes Dies are carrying over!

I have used it many times this season and loved having a nice Snowflake set again!

My thoughts today...

Doesn't that picture remind you of a scene from a Hallmark Christmas movie?

Thanks for stopping by & have a wonderful day!

Toile Christmas

 Hello & Happy Tuesday!

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas!

My Christmas was low keyed but it was by far one of the best I've ever had!

Shawn & the kids went above & beyond to make it wonderful and to top that off we had some snow to end the day! Snow is always the perfect touch for Christmas!

Today I am sharing a cool set of Christmas cards that was made with the Toile Christmas set.

I only just got that set & dies this season and loved making this set with them!

This was taken weeks ago with my phone so the picture is not the best and for some reason this is the only one I took.

Card Details:

Stamps: Toile Christmas

Ink: Memento Black, Mossy Meadow

Cardstock: Real Red, Whisper White, Mossy Meadow, Heartwarming Hugs DSP

Accessories: Christmas Cardinal Dies, Circle Layering Dies, Winter Snow EF, Red Rhinestones, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

This set did not last long as my card lady swept them up faster than lightening!

She has a friend that loves cardinals!

I had hoped to use this set more this season but time got away from me.

There is always next year!

Christmas Is Here!

 

It certainly has been a very odd year thanks to the coronavirus.

It will be so different from what it use to be.

Wearing masks, social distancing and the worst part....no big gatherings for our Christmas holiday.

It's been a hard year mentally, physically & emotionally which I am still struggling with but i'm determined to enjoy the day with Shawn & the kids. 

The thoughts of my Dad are constantly on my mind as he is loved & very missed especially on this 1st Christmas without him. 

Merry Christmas, Everyone!

Joyful Holly

 Hello & Happy Thursday & Happy Christmas Eve!

Yesterday I got my Pumpkin Roll & Deviled Eggs all done and ready for Christmas!

Today is to be a total washout with heavy rain and winds of 40 mph!

I took down some of our Christmas decorations so they did not freeze to the ground come Friday morning. The rain is to end with a big drop in temperatures. Burrrr!

I'm just about ready for Christmas.....just a few gifts to get wrapped today!

I have another set of cards to share today that I whipped up a few weeks ago using the Joyful Holly stamp set from the Stamp Up Holiday Catty! I love that it's photopolymer stamp set so you can see where your stamping!

These pictures are not the best as I took them on my stamp table with my phone.

I tore down my picture taking booth a few weeks ago to make some room in my stamp room. 

I put it back up yesterday! YAY!

Card Details:

Stamps: Joyful Holly

Ink: Old Olive, Real Red

Cardstock: Real Red, Old Olive, Whisper White, Poinsettia Place DSP

Accessories: Oval Layering Framelits, Tasteful Textile 3D EF, Real Red Sheer Ribbon, Glue Dot, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

These were a favorite of mine!

Busy, busy, busy!

Random Cards

 Hello & Happy Tuesday!

I'm sure by now most of you are all caught up in the craziness of Christmas!

I have a free day today and thought i'd share a few cards I made for recent card orders.

You know I love mixing old things with new and these cards will show that.

I pulled out an old hostess set called Made from Scratch from 2005 and added it to some Plaid Tidings DSP! I have gone thru almost 3 packs of this paper! I love it so much!

I pulled the color of my leaves from the colors in the paper!

So pretty and my card lady just loved them!

Cardstock: Pretty Peacock, Whisper White, Cajun Craze, Bumble Bee, Plaid Tidings DSP

Now on to Christmas...

This pack is pretty much the same as the Thanksgiving set except for the colors in the paper!
