Late Christmas Card

I know I know. Christmas has come and gone BUT let me tell you I had so much fun making these cards that I just had to post it. I ADORED this stamp set that was in the recent Holiday Mini from SU. Snowmen are my favourite! I only made a handful of these cards....especially for my stampin' friends. You know who you are (wink wink).

This was one of my first times using Brocade Blue too. Love it with the Kraft! Great combo.

Take care for now and see ya soon.

ABC Frame

Hello !!

Did you think I had fallen off the face of the earth? Well, nope. Here I am. Holidays were busy as usual and school is taking up most of my time. Stamping is my true love yes but busy busy busy life is getting in the way :(
This particular project I made was an idea from my upline Heather. She made a frame like this and I just selected a white frame and different colour letters to suit my daughters room. She is really into the alphabet song right now so I've hung it in her room. Not only is it cute BUT it's helping her visualize the letters!! GREAT!
I hope you like this project. I used the SU Big Shot to cut the letters.

Thanks for checking in today. Hope you're having a great weekend. HAPPY NEW YEAR TOO!

Warm Winter Wishes

Ahhhh, I just LOVE Christmas. I am a Christmas freak BIG TIME. I love the songs especially. I love the crazy busy malls. I love baking. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Christmas dinner above all. It's just my most favourite meal EVER!
Last year I made a card just like this one only switched it up a bit. I think this set, Season of Friendship is a great set especially if you're starting out. You can incorporate so much with it.....winter, summer, fall and spring. I suppose that's why it's called SEASON of Friendship (DUH). HA HA. Great set, love using it and I hope you like how I've used it.

I hope to get some shopping done soon. I haven't even started!!
Thanks for popping by and I hope you are enjoying this holiday season too!

Fire Chief Card

I know I know this is a NON Christmas item!!! CRAZY!
I jusy have to say that I am in love with my Cricut machine! HOLY MOLY! I ordered it so long ago and I have only been able to play with it recently. This was one of my first creations with the Paper Doll cartridge it came with. My cousin Stuart is a fire fighter in Brantford Ontario so I thought I'd make him a fire "man" card for his birthday. (looks like a fire "boy" though to me ... LOL) Anyhow, yes he weill like it but I was actually thinking more about his kids when I made it. I think his wife and kids will like it more than he will. That's ok with me. So the long and short of this post is ..... if you don't have a Cricut or have been thinking of getting one YOU MUST!!! It's so fun and very easy to use. I highly recommend it!

Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy your weekend!

CLASSIC CHRISTMAS CARD

WELL HELLO EVERYONE!!!
It's officially less than a month until Christmas. WOW!! Time is just passing buy. It's hard for me to get in the Christmas spirit because we don't have any snow yet! I am told by Mr. Weather man that next week's the week! YEAH....I love snow at Christmas time. How can you have Christmas with no snow?? Well, I suppose some of you are used to it if you're down south hey? Very odd to me that's all. Just used to a white Christmas.

On to the post. This card was one I made for a swap last month. I called it Classic Christmas because to me it looks like an old Christmas card my grandmother would send out. The Lovely as a Tree set is so beautiful. I love working with it! I hope you can see the sparkles on the card. I'm afraid the picture just does not do it justice.

Anyhow, I thank you so much for popping in. Enjoy your weekend!

WELCOME BABY BOY!!!

Hey hey hey!!!

So I hope your week is off to a great start!!!
My friend (and upline) Heather has just had her 4th (YES 4TH) baby!!! I can't even imagine. She has been blessed with a beautiful baby boy, COLE. This was the card I made for her as a congrats and a welcome to Cole. I am a button HOARDER so I decided to combat that and I have used 4 (COUNT THEM!!) FOUR on this card. Crazy I know but I had to give some up!! It was fun to make a baby boy card as many of my friends lately have had girls. CONGRATS to the Summers family!!

Thanks for popping by today.
Have a great day!!
