November Club project #2

Our second card we made this month is more of a winter theme.  The base of the card is Espresso and we stamped the tree in the same ink. We used the white gel pen to give the look of snow on the limbs. We then tore white paper and layer (which you can see in this photo) underneath the tree to look like snow.  We used Stickles (well..SU! brand which is in the Holiday mini) to accent the snow on the tree and on the ground to make the card sparkle!

November Stamp Club


This month we started early with a Christmas theme. This it the first card we made using some old designer paper from Stampin' Up.  We used the Stitched Stocking set and punch from the current Holiday Mini Catalog, which I like!  Added a jingle bell for  little pop!   The bell on the left is gold and the one on the right is silver and smaller.  I cased this card from Splitcoaststampers.

Thanksgiving Project

I made another bag for Thanksgiving, using up some old Designer Paper from Stampin' Up.  I made the card from the scraps from the paper and used the Day of Gratitude stamp set.  I will probably slip the card in the box with either a baked treat, like a cookie or some "blessing mix" for someone special in my kids' lives like a piano teacher.  I like to thank them at Thanksgiving time to tell them what a blessing they have been in our lives.

October is breast cancer awareness month.  In honor, I made a small little project for someone I know who is going through treatment.  I found the tin bucket at Target in the Dollar section.  I made the pink ribbon and glued it to the bucket and put the jewel on it.  The little gift card is from the recent set from SU! for breast cancer called Strength and Hope.    I probably fill the bucket with either some goodies or a gift card, letting her know I am thinking and praying for her during this time.

Card #3: Loads of Love

Happy Fall Y'all!  This was the second card we made this month from the Loads of Love set.  We filled our pick up with pumpkins and used the watercolor crayons to give it some color.  The pumpkins have sparkle from glitter.

October Cards: #2

Our second card is from the retired set "Country Blessings".  I punched out a scalloped rectangle as a stencil and sponged More Mustard, Expresso, and a bit of Cherry Cobbler.  I then stamped the image and saying in Expresso.  I then sponged the edges of the card in Expresso.  Another simple but pretty card.
