Just a brief post to show you two of the three black and white cards I made for a card swap on Splitcoast stampers.  I embossed the butterflies and cut them out, then used a pop dot to attach to the card.  The base of the card is a musical dry embossed score with a doily underneath the focal image.  I also used pretty gray ribbon to embellish the card.  Inside the sentiment reads “In Sympathy and Friendship”.

The other card is a fun stamper card, the image is exclusive to a local stamp store and I used a transparency to emboss a large dot pattern.  It is glued to the front panel with regular two way glue pen.  It came out so adorable.  It is simple yet very unique.

 

I hope you enjoy both cards, please let me know what you think.

 

 

Craig is home for the first time in two years for the Christmas Holidays.  I am so excited to have him here.  Hugs to all and have a great night!  Stamp Happy!



     Is that a bunch of pictures or what? If you lost count there are 24 of them!  I have had a blast over the last few weeks trying to clean up, clean out and sort through my stash.  I had very few duplicates (which actually came as a surprise to me).

   I have more paper than many scrap booking stores I have been in.  here are several of the shelves (12X12) that are actually filled with paper I am trying to “gift” to a new home.  It is mostly “rock star” paper that my niece does not wish to have and I really have no use for it.

   I hope to get some copic coloring done today, some more stamping and I want to image stamp all of my Magnolia images.   I received two birthday gifts yesterday.  One from my friend in California and another from one of the SCS birthday club members.  Out of respect for their privacy I will not tell you which is which or their names.  Ladies, I loved everything I received and it is all happily in a good home right here in my special craft area.

     I am hoping to have a few more posts/projects for you all before Christmas.  If I am unable to do so, I wish you the joy that having faith in Christ brings as we look to celebrate the birth of Jesus on Christmas day.

    Stamp Happy! Live with Joy!



Thank you Tracy Tripp for my wonderful Birthday & Christmas Gifts!!

    I hope you have all had a wonderful Saturday.   It has been a very quiet one here and I am very excited to share this video with you.  Especially my friends on YPP (Your paper pantry).   I hope you will enjoy this project. 

   This is my first ever mini that I have done for another person.  I tried to stay true to the colors and theme (she likes dragonflies and purple).  I even did a do it yourself glimmer mist.  There is a lot of ribbon and fiber on the cover there is even a small glass heart with a purple flower design inside hidden in the binding for her to find.

   

Hi Stampers!

This fun card folio is very easy to create, you simply down load the template from here . 

  Here is the websight I found the template:  http://mirkwooddesigns.blogspot.com/.  Simply click on the side bar where it says “templates” and print/cut out the card folio.

   When you are using the template, cut the side tabes a bit deeper than is shown in the shadow so that the cards inside will fit better.

     The cover panel is covered with green DCWV paper and Stocking Noah, cut out and layered onto a darker green card stock.  The card inside is also covered with the same paper and I used Jingles the snowman.  Most of the Christma stamps are 50% off!

    I hope to have more pictures of this project for you tomorrow.  I went out for dinner to celebrate my birthday and the evening has gone on much longer than anticipated.  So, I hope you will forgive this short but sweet post. 

     Samp Happy!
