I will also be running a different special each week in March. I will post the special for the week each Sunday.

More Christmas cards

I wanted to share a couple more Christmas cards that I have been working on.

The first one used the Snow Burst textured impressions emblossing folder and the Peekaboo Frames Bigz L Die from the Holiday mini catalog. Along with the doily triple layer and the decorative label punches from the Idea Book & Catalog.

The second cards are using the stocking builder punch and the silver & red glitter paper also from the Holiday mini catalog.

It's not too late to order supplies for you Christmas cards. Contact me today.

Another multi-page card

I loved the multi-page fall card, so decided to do it in Christmas.

Once again, disregard the mini clothespin -it's only there to hold the pages open or shut as needed for picturing.

Some of the supplies I used:

Postage stamp punch - #122344

Eyelet border punch - #119853

Doily Triple layer punch - #122465

Peekaboo frames Big Shot Die - #124587

Silver glimmer paper - #124005

(last two items are in the Holiday mini catalog)

The base cardstock is Night of Navy - it appears to be different in some of the pictures.

I hope you like this card. Please leave me a comment.

One more Fall card

It is officially still Fall, so I thought I would sneak in one more fall card. I had a project that I need lots of leaves for. So I used my Big Shot leaf die. The Early Espresso cardstock was the piece left, so I attached scraps of designer series paper behind. Then I wrapped baker cord around the piece, after I strung some punched jewelry tags that were each stamped with "hello".

I hope you all have a blessed Thanksgiving. And wishing you lots of Black Friday bargains if you shop - not me, I avoid all stores on Friday.

Multi-page Fall card

This is one of the cards we made at my last stamp class, along with a Christmas card. I just love the way this Thanksgiving one turned out. Ignore the tiny clothespin - it's only there to hold the card open for picturing. It looks a bit yellow due to the lightbulb. In other words, not the best lighting. But I wanted to share it with you.

The base of this card is 4 1/4 x 11 inches.

I scored it at 3 1/2, 4, 4 1/2, 5, and 5 1/2.

From there you can make the attached flaps any size you want.

If you try this card, I'd love to see yours!

I thought this card style would also work well for Christmas cards where you would like to tuck in a picture.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

And don't forget - it's time to order your supplies for your Christmas cards.

Let your family know that I do both gift certificates and gift wrapping.
