Scentsational Christmas Tree

Posted on by

Did I ever tell you that I LOVE the Christmas tree image in the Scentsational Season stamp set? 😉  If you follow my blog, I’m sure you’ve figured that out as I use it a LOT.  For this card I used some scraps from the Festival of Prints Designer Series Paper Stack, and embossed the sentiment with black embossing powder.

Have a great Tuesday!  Thanks for stopping by!

A Gray & Red Christmas

Posted on by

I hadn’t played along with the Moxie Fab Challenges in a while, and this week’s challenge photo was too good to pass up.

While I love the traditional red and green colors for Christmas, it’s also fun to try some non-traditional color combinations occasionally too.

I love the wallpaper in the inspiration photo.  The white on gray is so crisp and clean.  I just got the Flowering Flourishes stamp set and I knew it would be perfect for this look.

Well, we’ve made it to Friday.  I don’t know about you, but I am really looking forward to a restful weekend!  I hope you enjoy yours.  Thanks for stopping by!

O Christmas Tree

I was inspired by this card by Debbie Olson, and decided to make a Stampin’ Up version.  Oh, how I love this cute little tree!

Hope you had a fun Halloween last night!  Here’s a pick of one of my two trick or treaters.  This year my oldest child decided he is too old to go.  That makes me sad (and it makes me feel old  :))!

Enjoy your Thursday!  Thanks for stopping by!

Ink:  Gumball Green, Chocolate Chip, Cherry Cobbler

A Pinecone CASE

Posted on by

I tend to get my inspiration from lots of sources — magazines, catalogs, clothing, etc…  But one of the main ways I find inspiration is from other stampers.  When I saw this card made by Dawn McVey, I knew I wanted to make a Stampin’ Up! version of her card.  And since I just got the Watercolor Winter set, I knew just what to do.

Well, it will be a busy Saturday here.  Lots of birthday activities going on in our house.  Fun times!  Enjoy your weekend!  Thanks for stopping by!

Stamps:  Watercolor Winter, Greetings of the Season
Ink:  Chocolate Chip, Old Olive
