Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to those near and far!  Debbie is the winner of the holiday sampler!

600th Post

This stamp from "O Holy Night" was stamped in Versamark and heat embossed using White Stampin' Emboss Powder on Night of Navy card stock.  I placed it on a Tea Lace Paper Doily using Dimensionals.  The background was made with Brushed Silver card stock using the Big Shot with the Petals-a-Plenty Embossing Folder.  Last, I added a 5/8" Organza Ribbon.

 

This is my 600th post!  So, I am giving away a little holiday sampler with card stock, ribbon, buttons, etc.  Please leave me a comment and I will put your name in a drawing to be held on Thursday--I'll announce the winner in my post.

Endless Wishes Take 2

This is definitely my favorite new set.  I posted about "Endless Wishes"  here, but I just can't get enough of it.  This card looks completely different than the other one I posted because this time I used Real Red and Gumball Green.  The chevron background paper is from the Color Collection DSP Stacks (Brights).  I punched out the words using the Large Oval Punch and mounted them on Gumball Green card stock that I made with the Scallop Oval Punch.  I used the Scallop Edge Border Punch to make the trim and topped it off with some 1/4" Real Red Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon.

Have Yourself . . .

Here's another design from the "Merry Little Christmas Kit".  I stamped the words in Real Red and sewed them onto the other piece.  I ran the Coastal Cabana card through the Big Shot using the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder.  The tag, striped DSP, button, and Baker's Twine were all included in the kit.

Endless Wishes

I stamped the snowflake and the words with "Endless Wishes" a new stamp set that contains three snowflakes and sixteen different words.  This photopolymer set is available for a limited time and is only $13.95!   I stamped the words in Coastal Cabana and the snowflake in Metallic Encore Silver and punched it out with the 1 1/4" Circle Punch.  The scalloped layers were made using pieces from the Winter Frost DSP collection.  I made them with the Large Scallop Edgelits die.  Last, I added some Coastal Cabana 3/8" Ruffle Stretch Trim. 

Christmas Tagables

If you want a fast and easy Christmas card to make--here's the ticket!  I used Season of Style DSP and punched it out with the Top Note Bigz die.  I wrapped some Cherry Cobbler 3/4" Chevron Ribbon around it, added the words from "Christmas Tagables", and punched it out with the Artisan Label Punch.  I mounted it all on Cherry Cobbler card stock embossed with the Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder and then again on whisper White card stock. 

Wonderfall

"Wonderfall" is still in the big catalog, but I haven't played with it for awhile.  I stamped the leaves in Garden Green, Cajun Craze, and Crushed Curry.  Then, I punched them out with the coordinating Autumn Accents Bigz Die.  The background was made with "Off the Grid".  I added some Natural Burlap Trim and some Regals Buttons tied with Linen Thread.

Post Halloween Post

I just realized I forgot to post the fun pictures from Halloween.  Here's Captain America, Mickey Mouse, and a knight in shining armor.
