Thank You
A friend of mine at work needed some note cards for her grandmother who is turning 90!
How could I say no!
For these I took Avian Notes and stamped them in grass green. I added the cardinals from Christmas Joy and the sentiment from Essential Sentiments. I sponged the background with sky ink and wrapped cherry baker's twine around the main panel. I mounted this panel on sage cardstock and put that onto a sky cardstock card.
I then also made some matching envelopes (left).
ENJOY!

Christmas Blog Hop
If you are participating in the blog hop, you should have come from Angela Kelley's Blog! and if not, then you should start from the beginning with Samantha's blog until you come to my blog.
This month's blog hop theme was Christmas ... and if you are anything like me you are scrambling in December to get all of your Christmas cards out!!
This card is not only a cute card, but it's fast and EASY!
First I stamped a reindeer on kraft cardstock using French Roast ink. Then I tore some sugar cardstock and added some baker's twine. I stamped the sentiment and embossed it in white embossing powder. I matted the whole thing on cherry cardstock and added some bling to the reindeer's nose!
ENJOY!!

Wonderfully Wicked
In honor of Halloween today, I decided to show you three ways that I have used the Too Cute to Spook set with the Sleepy Hollow Paper to create some fun, fun, fun cards.
\here I sponged the Sleepy Hollow Paper with Onyx ink and embossed the cat with black embossing powder. Used my die cut bats and cloud (sponged with slate ink) and punched a circle for the moon.
Here I did much of the same but used more bats and added some baker's twine.
Here I did much of the same above just used different cardstock and a different layout.
ENJOY!
Happy Halloween!

Sheltering Tree
I love this saying and tree from Woodland Friends.
I stamped it on French Roast and Sage and cut out the two peieces to make the tree. I popped it along with a cloud that I die cut.
I added some sky ink by sponging it on the background. Added a few pearls to the lower right hand corner.
I recently made about 25 of these cards for a great swap that I was in hosted by Rita Holmes ... it was wonderful!
ENJOY!!!
