Christmas Presents

This is one that I saw some where in the blogosphere. I don't remember where I saw it or even when I first saw it. I knew that I had to CASE it and if someone knows where it came from, please let me know so that I can give them proper credit. I used Play Date Designer Paper cut into different sizes and stacked them on top of each other. The ribbon is 5/8" Real Red grossgrain. The "Merry Christmas" is from Teeny Tiny Wishes. This card is a great clean and simple card and only took me minutes to put together. I hope you enjoy.

Thanks for visiting and see you next time.




Happy Thanksgiving!

What to do?

What do you do when you are waiting on the UPS man to deliver stamps? Stamp of course!! While I was waiting I was doing some blog surfing. I visited Tiffany at My Crafty World and found a wonderful picture. I knew immediately that I wanted to use Stampin' Up!s new colors Daffodil Delight and Marina Mist along with a couple of favorites Chocolate Chip and Whisper White. I am pleased at how this card turned out.

Thanks for visiting and see you next time.

Thank you for Memorial Day PPA

This week Pals Paper Arts is having a Memorial Day inspiration challenge. When I first saw the challenge for this week, I immediately thought "red, white and blue with the American flag". I made the card and knew instantly that I was not going to use that one. I did not like the way it turned out at all. For the next couple of days, I kept trying to decide what to do and when I was combing through the SCS website yesterday afternoon, it came to me. Red, white, and blue with stars!

I used Brilliant Blue for the base and versamarked the stars from the Under the Stars stamp set. Next comes Whisper White with Thank You from Teeny Tiny Wishes in Brilliant Blue and Real Red. I versamarked the same stars as before on Real Red for the top layer. Before adhering this to the base, I wrapped a piece of Whisper White Organza ribbon around it. The stars were made with the Stars #2 Die and the Big Shot. They are finished with a silver brad and dimensionals to give them some "pop".
