Holiday Home Christmas Tag


Last tag I designed for an example at Christmas tag class coming up on Monday.
Love the Holiday Home and matching dies but there are lots of very small stamps I am afraid I am going to loose.  But the good part is they make for fun additions like the tree I could place behind the house for landscape! 
I love the snow stamp!
I hope you enjoy your weekend and thanks for stopping by!

FMS165 Lots Of Joy



Fun simple card!  I saw a tree when I saw the sketch!  I want to play with a heart but need to keep on the Christmas cards for a little while longer!  I may use this one for a thank you card which I find I need after Christmas!  

Here is a close up of the tree:


I hope you have a fun filled Friday and thanks for stopping by!

PPA230 Dash Of Joy








Playing with the Endless Wishes set for a simple card this week as we have a sweet color challenge!  I guess I think of sweets when I hear Baked Brown Sugar!
I did a little sponging around the vanilla for an extra "frame' and a vintage look!  I hope your Thursday is wonderful and thanks for stopping by!

Merry Monday #137 Snowbuddies!



I love this stamp set and try to play with it when I can!  So when I saw birds as the challenge, I had to pull it back out and use all of them in a scene!
I colored with markers and sponged a little Soft Sky on the top for sky or snow.
I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday and thanks for stopping by!

PP224 Homemade Holiday




I really liked designing this card.  I told myself I wanted to use the Holiday Home set this week because I have hardly touched it since getting it and the matching framelits dies about three weeks ago.  So excited to see that this challenge was perfect for using this set!  I played straight down the middle with transport(Santa's sleigh), embossing (Lucky Stars emboss folder), and die cut (Homemade Holiday framelits dies for houses). 
I was inspired by a card over at Jan Tink's blog stampspaperscissors.typepad.com.
She did  more heat embossing and coloring but I liked the houses stamped in Real Red on Crumb Cake.  I embossed the sky with stars and gave a scene that I will probably send as a Christmas Thank You so need sentiment on the front for now. 
Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed Tuesday!

Festival Of Trees Tags


More tags for upcoming Christmas tag class in a week!
I focused some examples with the Festival of Trees set and the tree punch.  When I saw these in the Holiday catalog, tags were the first thing I thought of for buying this set.  I have enjoyed making lots of cards this year with this stamp set though!  I plan to keep and use for several years...retired or not!

Have a blessed Monday and Happy December!
Thanks for stopping by!
