Delicious Dasher....

This is a card we made as the M-N-t at our December meeting...it was designed by Brenda Miller....there are so many great elements....embossing, punches, lace and the new DELICIOUS buttons....I didn't realize how nice they are!  I'm gonna have to add them to my wish list!

DUH!  I just realized that I posted this 2x--sorry!

Pretty Snazzy Dasher

You know me and that retired paper....I couldn't resist this layout! I think this is a big contender for next year's Christmas card...the clear button has a circle of Baja Breeze underneath to make it look like an actual colored button...great idea instead of investing in all those different colored buttons...and a little sliver of Soft Suede cardstock as the thread in the button.........the card also uses half a Top Note Die....

Soft Suede ink (and Dazzling Diamonds on the antlers)

Look what my daughter made!

Give a kids some ink, stamps and paper, and look what they can do!  Maggie got inspired to make some Christmas cards (but she doesn't want to send them to anyone--she wants to keep them in an album as samples!)  I actually convinced her to send this one to her cousin--she obliged --but no more!--the rest stay in an album!

Perfect card for today!

Some major snow is expected here today so I couldn't resist posting this card before I went to work....Embossing folder with the snowflakes on vellum CARDSTOCK (do not use regular vellum as it crumples!) over Bashful Blue cardstock (the darker sample uses Ballet Blue)....the Chit Chat rub-ons work great on the vellum cardstock and keep with the white theme!  A few rhinestones add some sparkle!

Merry, Merry Christmas!

When I saw this adorable samples with a baby Rudolph, I had to make it!  I bought this stamp set (Forest Friends) for my daughter because she loved it (but never used it!) so it was a great time to use it!                                  Merry Christmas to all of you and thanks for reading my blog!

Close to Cocoa, Real Red, red rhinestone for nose, Snowflake embossing folder

My favorite, by far!

I have to say...this one is the winner!  I found this in my searching and had to make it!  I am a snowman addict and this one it too cute!  The image is from the retired Christmas Punch Hostess set from last year...it's actually a tag punch shape, but I just used the snowman image and layered him on a 1 1/4 inch square punch of Night of Navy c/s....embossed the bottom half of the card with the swirl folder....love it!


The scarves are just ribbon folded over (use a small glue dot in the middle of the fold....HINT: cut all the scarves AFTER you assemble card, that way all the ends will be even!


Mellow Moss (this is the last of it!  Yipee!) Rose Red, Perfect Plum, Whisper White

A very similar sample to the previously posted set (without the Monogram).....
