I love trees and I love that I have stamp sets with trees on them. This card can be used a number of ways. I left it blank so far because I will use it as a template for a sympathy card, or a note card, etc.
Working on some Christmas card ideas. I think if I use this, I'm going to emboss the red bird. My collegue suggested that I draw an extra part so it looks like a cardinal. She's the artist, not I.
My friend Kari Lyn gave me this idea to use contact paper as a window to use with dazzling diamonds. Everyone just loves making these cards. Too cool. Thanks, Kari.
I didn't put too much effort into this one in case it didn't turn out the way I wanted it to. However, I did die cut the cake edges. A wedding cake cannot be without some frill.
I'm forever playing catch-up, but we had a water-main break at the school late yesterday afternoon and it was unable to be fixed by this morning. Thus, I have been fortunate enough to make a card today and finish up a couple others. I just "subscribed" to Mojo Monday (see the bottom of my sidebar). Although not making yesterday's "Monday card", I was able to use a template from a few weeks ago that I like.
The recipe for this card is as follows: whisper white, pink pirouette and bella rose DSP paper; pretty in pink taffeta ribbon; Best Kind of Friend and Live Like You Mean It stamp sets; pink pirouette, Riding Hood Red and Kiwi Kiss Ink
I never thought I would put these colors together, but I really like them. I have so much retired wallpaper, buttons, ribbon, etc. I just have to start using it! I was able to make 9 "thank you" cards with this particular retired wallpaper.
Paper: Real Red, Bella Rose Designer Series Paper (If I got the name wrong, I'm sorry, but I'm already in bed) Ink: Whisper White Craft, Basic Black Stamps: Festive Favorites, Mr. Twigster I doubled up on the dimensionals and used gingham ribbon for the scarf

I'm crazy about stamping and have been a demonstrator for Stampin' Up! for a little over two years. If I didn't have to shower and do mom, work and housewife stuff, I'd stamp and craft all day. I guess I'll shower...and I do love my family. Man it's a tough decision!
