Faux Quilt Thanksgiving Card

Here is a card I made for fall/Thanksgiving. I saw this faux quilt idea from Dawn Griffith's website. The background card is Taken with Teal (#101584). I used 1 3/8" square punch (#103375) with the Autumn Meadows DSP (#116769). I puched random designs from the paper and layed them down side by side. Then I ran the squares through the Big Shot (#113439) using the Top Note Bigz Die (#113463) and tied a ribbon around it with the 1/4" Grograin Ribbon in Chocolate Chip (#109051). The acorn image is from the Autumn Splendor Stamp Set (#116503) in the Holiday Mini Catalog. I sponged around it and attached it to scallop circle (#109043). I used my Mat Pack (#105826) and my Paper-Piercing Tool (#116631) and poked a hole in each scallop. The greeting is from the Falling Leaves Stamp Set (#115368) and punched out with the Word Window Punch (#105090) and backed with the Modern Label Punch (#116630). I use this punch A LOT! I think it makes the perfect little touch and there are so many sayings that fit perfectly inside! I hope you like this card! I love the fall colors in this designer paper. They are beautiful!!
Until next time, Happy Stampin'!

Baby Girl

A friend of mine from school had a baby shower this week and I had to make her a card. I haven't had to make many baby shower cards so I was a little skeptical. This card turned out better than I expected. I love the Dazzling Diamonds (#102023) with the pink cardstock! (Pink Pirouette is a retired in-color) I used the Animal Stories (#116716) stamp set and the Short & Sweet stamp set (#115108) for the greeting. "Welcome Baby" is stamped in Jet Black Stazon (#101406) and punched out with the Word Window Punch (#105090) and the Modern Label Punch (#116630) The star is made with the Large Star Punch (#110710) layered with the Star Punch (#109045). It has Dazzling Diamonds TOO!!! :) I layered designer paper on the base of the card. The ribbon is Whisper White organza ribbon (#114319) tied in a simple knot. My friend loved this card and I hope you do too!

Until next time, Happy Stampin!

Masculine Birthday Card

Here is a birthday card I made for my father-in-law last month. I used the stamp set "Crazy for Cupcakes" (#111618) on Taken with Teal Cardstock (#101584). The Designer Paper is from the Autumn Meadows (#116769)  from the Holiday Mini. I used the Scallop Edge punch (#112091) on the DSP. I also used the new Modern Label Punch (#116630)  for the greeting. The greeting came from the stamp set Warm Words (#115108). I added the 5/8" Grograin Ribbon in Chocolate Chip (#109051) to give the card a nice little touch. Masculine cards are sometimes hard to make but this one worked out great! Enjoy.
Until next time, Happy Stampin'!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!!!

 I wanted to share with you these cute Kit Kat Mummies that I cased from Angie Kennedy Juda's website Chic'n Scratch. I made these for some of my coworkers for Halloween. I love making Halloween treats. This was one of my favorites and very easy to make. The googly eyes make it super cute! Enjoy!

Have a safe and Happy Halloween!

Halloween Treat Bag

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I have been extremely busy and haven't had the chance. Anyway, I made this cute Halloween treat bag as a door prize at one of my latest workshops. I used the Fancy Favor Die (#115965) with the Cast-A-Spell DSP (#115677). On a Whisper White piece of cardstock I used my Haunting Jumbo Wheel (#112480). This is the first time I have got to use this wheel. When I bought it, silly me forgot to buy the handle so I had to wait to use it. I hate that I did that...I guess we learn from our mistakes. :) I stamped the pumpkin from the stamp set House of Haunts (#111574) in Pumpkin Pie (#105216). I used Yo-Yo Yellow Marker (#100050) to color in the eyes and the star on the trick-or-treaters. What a cute bag this made! I put some basket grass inside along with some candy! It was a hit!

Christ is Born Card

I am so addicted to Christmas cards!! I made this card using the "Christ is Born" Stamp Set (#111612). The background is Real Red Cardstock (#102482) stamped with the poinsettia image also in Real Red. I used Whisper White Cardstock (#100730) to stamp the image on. "Christ is Born" is stamped using the Stazon Black Ink (#101406). The white cardstock is backed with Basic Black Cardstock (#102851). To add a little touch, I stamped the poinsettia image in the corner of the white cardstock using the Real Red Ink (#103133). I used the 3/16" Corner Rounder Punch (#109047) to round the edges of the black and white cardstock. This is a very pretty, very simple Christmas card. I hope you like it! Until next time, Happy Stampin'!

It's Christmas Card Time!!!

Hi friends! I can't believe I am already making Christmas cards. It's just around the corner!!! I have these cute Christmas stamp sets and I couldn't wait to use them. This one is the Holiday Lineup stamp set (#111648). These little elves are so adorable!! The background card is Garden Green cardstock (#102584). The strip of designer paper is from the Merry Moments pack (#115672). I used my Big Shot to cut out the top note in Whisper White cardstock (#100730). The elves are stamped with black StazOn ink (#101406) on Whisper White cardstock (#100730) with a Real Read cardstock (#102482) backing. I used my Garden Green (#100080) and Real Read (#100052) Stampin' Write Markers to color the elves clothes and hats. I watercolored their hair with Close to Cocoa (#103139). The greeting is from the Stamp Set Many Merry Messages (#116586) stamped in Garden Green ink (#102272). Oh, and I sponged Real Read around the edge of the top note. I will be using this card at my November Stamp-a-Stack. I hope you love it as much as I do! I just love the traditional red and green for Christmas!!
Until next time, Happy Stampin'!

Stamp-a-Stack Treats

These are some treats I made for my Stamp-a-Stack today. I had some fabulous people over and I thought I would treat them with these cute favors. I used the Big Shot (#113439) to make the top note with Chocolate Chip (#102128), More Mustard (#100946), and Really Rust (#100661) cardstok along with the Autumn Meadows Designer Paper (#116769) in the Holiday Mini Catalog. I used the 5/8" Chocolate Grograin Ribbon (#109051) for my bow. The cute cellophane bags are also from Stampin Up (#103104)! I filled them with candy corn and they were a hit! I think they are so cute. I hope you enjoy them as well!

Until next time, Happy Stampin'!
