Hi Friends!
Just a quick card I wanted to share with you that I
made for a Christmas thank you card. I decided
to create a wintery scene. I'm beginning to wonder
if we will have a wintery scene here in NW Ohio
this year. We have gone beyond 280 days without
snow. And, I believe it is a new record. I can
remember last year having had snow by now.
Oh well, maybe we'll have some in time for
Christmas.:-)
The pretty snowflakes were made using
a McGill punch. And, the tiny red birds were
made using a Martha Stewart punch. I added SU
dazzling details for the sparkle effect. It's a quick
and easy card, but I like the end result. Thanks
so much for visiting here today. Take care, hugs!
Supplies:
Paper: Bazzill
Stamp: Inspired by Stamping
Ink: SU(Black)
Punch: McGill, Martha Stewart
Ribbon: Jo-Ann Fabric
Dazzling Details: SU
Hi Friends,
My thoughts are on all the families and friends who
have suffered a loss on Friday relating to the events
that happened at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
We are deeply saddened by this horrific act on
such innocent people. It is so difficult to understand.
I am hoping and praying for friends, family, and God
to be at the side of those in sorrow at this diffuclt time.
Take care, hugggggssss.
Hi Friends!
Happy Holidays to you and yours! How are you
coming along on all the Christmas festivities? I
still have some baking and shopping to do, but
I think I have most of the preparations under
control. I just received some notices in my email
this morning, so I informed my husband I ordered
some Christmas goodies for myself...hehehe! Do
you do that, too?!
I am entering the above card over at the
Paper Sweeties. They have an awesome design
team with the sweetest stamps! Go over
and take a look for you won't be disappointed!
I did some gold embossing on this card around
the Christmas tree and the snowflake buttons. The
gold snowflake behind the tree is actually a tag
I bought at Bath and Body Works! Hey, I'm thinking
whatever works, I'll use it...hehehe! I think it
went well with the other little snowflakes.
Here is the sketch challenge that we were to follow:
Well, I have some more cleaning to do and a little
treat bag I want to make up for my friend's dog.
Oh, we do spoil our dogs, lol! She has the sweetest
bichon frise that I've ever seen. I just want to scoop
her up and take her home with me!
Ok, I have a couple more cards I want to post, but
will do later. Take care and thanks so much for
dropping by today, hugs!

Hi Friends!
How are you doing today? Getting those Christmas
preparations done? I had to take a break from the
hustle and bustle and sit down to make a birthday
card for a girl I used to work with. Three of us
girls still work together, but three have since gone
on to other jobs. The one girl's birthday is on
Monday, and we are all meeting tonight for dinner.
We will have fun seeing each other again and get
caught up on what's going on in our lives.
I was going to make this card fairly simple, but I
kept adding here and there. I started off with a
Bo Bunny sticker and adhered it to card board
for dimension. I added the happy bday letter
stickers and gems. I embossed the poinsettia
and oval circles. Ribbon, buttons, and pearl
cotton to finish off the card.
Well, I better scoot here. Thank you for
dropping by today! Take care, hugs!
