Prince of Peace in Blackberry



I love the new emboss folder, Filgree Frame!  The folder works well with the Deco Label framleits(the three smallest).  I love this single stamp and held on to it from last year.  This is the last card for Christmas card class tonight and I think it is elegant but simple. I love using the Blackberry Bliss for a Christmas color.  I think it is perfect with the Very Vanilla.
Enjoy your week and thanks for stopping by!

Peace with Trees


There were so many possibilities with this set and matching punch that it was overwhelming for me.  I knew I wanted to use the Trim A Tree DSP stack and so the colors came together but how did I want to do the trees?  Punch all? Use only one type?  So I picked my three favorite trees and decided to stamp two and punch one and lift on dimensionals and then the adding of red decor was a last minute decision!  I like the sentiment (which is from an vintage set) with the trees. 
Have a Awesome Sunday and thanks for stopping by!

Bright & Beautiful


My third card for Christmas card class next week!  I knew I wanted to do Real Red with Gold heat embossing and I love the sentiment with this set!
I did not have enough gold card stock or gold foil for class to do the layering so took a piece of Whisper White card stock and applied the gold ink pad to it to create a gold layer.  Tricky trick tricky! 
Love the stars and having  the matching framelits!
Have a lovely Saturday and thanks for stopping by!

FMS152 In Ombre



I have wanted to do the ombre feathers for a while and decided this was a perfect time to try it out with my favorite color. I inked the stamp with markers-lightest to darkest. I had not inked up my Chalk Lines stamp set and thought i would use the scroll design here but then it need a little bling. I added a strip of  silver glimmer paper and then some silver twine. The sentiment look like the right fit with the scroll design. 
I hope you have a grand Friday and thanks for stopping by!

PPA218 Give Thanks Book Marker





I first decided I wanted to stamp the leaves in all three colors and then I thought about doing something other than a card. I decided to make a book marker for my mom.  I love the linen look of this stamp set, For All Things!

Close up of the words: I stamped the linen watercolor mark over the sentiment after stamping off in Crumb Cake. Looks very textured in person!

I hope you enjoy your Thursday and please play along in the color challenge this week!  Blackberry is my new favorite SU! color!
Thanks for stopping by!
