Festive Snow Day

Another quick post for today.  I need five winter cards for my three December stamp a stacks this week, so I looked through a few sketch challenges and used Freshly Made Sketches 115 to come up with this card.  I don't usually make my cards so simple, but I really like how this one turned out.  I need to do some clean and simple cards more often!


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Lovely as a Tree Gift

Just a quick post today...I sponged and brayered (is that even a word? lol) this scene as a gift at our annual Red Hot Stampers Christmas party.  We had to bring a $5 gift for our Bingo game.  Since I HATE to shop (except at Hobby Lobby occasionally) I figured I could make a pic to put in a frame.  I actually bought three and the colors I used went best with this frame.  Guess I'll need to come up with pics for my other two frames.  


This is the gift I received...A beautifully decorated bag using the Festive Flurry Ornament kit and a candle with another ornament on top of it.  What scent was it???  Spiced Cranberry, and it smells wonderful!  Thanks, Melinda! :)  Yup, always a fun night with the Red Hots!


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Lovely as a Tree - Winter Anniversary

Today's card is for my sister-in-law and brother-in-law's anniversary...and it's late!  I have SO many cards I need to make and get out there soon.  Anyone else feel that way?  I really need to learn to speed up my card making process and plan ahead...months ahead! lol  Yeah, I'm laughing because I know that's never going to happen!  


I've been trying to put something on the inside of my cards.  It doesn't always happen, but I'm sure giving it a try. :)


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

RHSSC - Snowflake Soiree

Welcome to another card for the Red Hot Stampers' sketch challenge.  This week's sketch was another simple one. :)  Since we're supposed to be getting snow this coming week I thought I'd make another card with snowflakes.  Since I haven't used Marina Mist in quite a while I thought it was time to pull it out again.  Yup, a perfect color to go with snowflakes. 
Remember that we are giving out blog candy for those that participate in this month's Red Hot challenge.  Head over to the Red Hots' blog here to see what we're giving away and to see what everyone else made with this week's sketch.



Thanks for looking and have a great day!
