Gifts of the Earth

This Autumn Meadows DP is my favorite! The stamps are from Gifts of the Earth set in the mini catalog. I also used a buckle from the retired HPH. The sentiment says "For all the good gifts that your kindness imparts, remind us dear Lord, to give thanks with our hearts."

Halloween Cards

I made these cards using scraps from last weekend's workshop. The DP is Night and Day from the mini catalog. The stamps are from Halloween Hoot and House of Haunts. I used the Stamp-a-ma-jig a lot with these cards.

More Sweet Centers

I had to make a card with Sweet Centers using the Skittles I bought before I ate all of them! The clouds, sentiment, and grass are from Dreams and Dragons, an old retired set. I really need to figure out how to make the pull tabs for these so that people don't have to tear up the card to get the candy! The second card has a stamp from Wandering Words that I colored with markers. I love this DSP! The ribbon is from an old Ribbon Originals pack.

Ornament Card

This is the 2nd card we will be doing at an upcoming workshop. The base is Real Red. The Ballet Blue is layered on Always Artichoke on top of Creamy Caramel with a scallop border punched bottom. The BB layer has Serene Snowflakes stamped on it using the Shimmer Paint. I stamped the ornaments in AA, CC, and Night of Navy, and punched them out with the ornament punch. A fire rhinestone is in the middle of the CC one, and Silver String is tied around the NoN ornament. The ribbon is the Polka-Dot RR ribbon, with the dots facing down. The sentiment is from Teeny, Tiny Wishes and is punched with the Word Window, layered on the Modern Label.

Double Flap Card

This is cased from SCS. It is a double flap card. I am probably going to use this at an upcoming workshop. The BG paper is Night and Day DSP from the mini. The images are all from Halloween Hoot. The first card is the front image, the second is the left panel (2nd image) and the 3rd is the right panel (last image). I used the Stamp-a-ma-jig a lot on this card!

Happy World Cardmaking Day!

I made the first card simple, since it will be the index card for the Forever stamp on Splitcoaststampers.com. I used Bermuda Breeze, Melon Mambo, one of the embossing folders from SU!, and the Forever stamp. The ribbon is the dotton Rich Razzleberry with the dots facing down. The Sweet Centers card has Night and Day DSP from the mini on it. I put candy corn in the cup. The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.

Back again!

I am finally able to stamp again, since most of my stuff is unpacked. I decided to make some pretty simple cards, since I haven't stamped for over a month. The first card's base is Bermuda Bay, with a Cameo Coral layer on top that has a texture plate design on it. The image is from the under $10 page in the back of the catty. Added to that is a strip of Thoroughly Modern DP, a large grommet, and Soft Suede ribbon. The next card I made to try out the Sweet Treat cups. I stamped snowflakes from Serene Snowflakes in Versamark onto Glorious Green CS. Then I used the Silver Encore ink to stamp the ornament top onto Whisper White. I punched out the circle with the 1 3/4 punch. Inside the treat cup are Red Hots. The ribbon is from the mini catty.
