Snow Much Fun Christmas

Hello Friends,
Here is another card I made using the Snow Much Fun stamp set by Stampin Up. In the card I wanted to design a card where the outdoors is looking in. When I first saw this stamp set this idea came to mind immediately and I was so excited to see my finished version. I hope you will love it too. If you do and would like to join me on Sunday, November 20 from 1-4pm we will be making this card in my collection of 10 Christmas cards for $15.00. Just make sure to RSVP by Friday (tomorrow) so that I can prep enough materials!



Card Size: 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
Stamp Set Used: Snow Much Fun 
Color Used: Crumb Cake, Wild Wasabi, Real Red, and Whisper White
Accessories and Tools Used: Dazzling Details glitter glue and dimensionals

Christmas is Coming

Hello Friends,

I don't know about you, but I am beginning to get ready for Christmas as it always seems to show up way faster than what I had planned! So I have been working on making my cards for the holidays. Hope you love them! This first one I made masculine. As you have seen not many of my cards are meant for men but I have a lot of male friends and family members that I have to mail a card to at Christmas time so this is what I came up with. Oh and BTW I asked my hubby if he liked it and he said yes, so I guess I did a good job.

Card Size: 5 1/2 X 4 1/4"
Stamp Sets Used: Scenic Season and Warmest of Wishes
Colors Used: Basic Gray, Island Indigo, Whisper White, Sarhara Sand, and Baja Breeze
Accessories and Tools Used: Daubers, clear embossing powder, heat tool, and mini silver brads
The best part of this card is it's simple and even though it is not your traditional Christmas colors it still feels Wintery!
