I love making items for Christmas so much and my November Stamp Class was so fun! We made 2 cards and 2 gift holders.

The class featured the Hope & Peace stamp set, Snowflake Specialty Vellum, Wonderful Snowflakes and Adhesive Backed Sequins & Gems.

Watercoloring is one of my favorite ways to color intricate images.

For these cards, I wanted to use both the darkly outlined image and the no-line image. Which is your favorite?

Fitting Florets Collection is stunningly beautiful!

I have hoped and dreamed that Stampin’ Up! would bring back gorgeous framed dies and this is it!

The Hope & Peace stamp set is one of my favorite Christmas sentiment set.

The fonts are beautiful hand brushed lettering mixed with a lovely script, lovingly completing each card or project. Paired with the Snowflake 12”x12 Specialty Vellum iridescent foil and white flocking make for gorgeous

l just love the Whimsical Woodland 3D embossing folder and it’s cheerful little trees.

It seems to encompass the feeling of Christmas and all that brings to mind? Paired with the festive greetings, you hardly need anything else!

One of my favorite gifts are stationary sets or card gift boxes.

This beautiful box will be a fun one to gift at Christmas and I enjoyed using the Splendid Day DSP and the Splendid Thoughts Bundle.

For my October (Free with purchase) stamp class, we used the Lights Aglow Suite Collection.

This lovely gold glimmer card was the hands-down favorite (and mine too). It turned out so elegant and lovely.

I ❤️ this #sweetsunflowerspaperpumpkin! I NEVER do alternates as I am so busy just keeping up with new products, but the watercolor images are to die for!!

This sweet little card was my other swap for my very first Backstage in-person event (First in-person even ever!). I used the beautiful Painted Posy 3D Embossing Folder and love how gorgeous the blossoms turned out!

Backstage was a blast and I used this sweet card for the #STAMPINUPBACKSTAGE Sweets & Swaps social and conference that was kicked-off on August 25th…

Thinking of you fall card … The Ringed in Nature Bundle affords itself to great fall cards. All those leaves and tree rings remind one of walking through the forest with crisp cool weather and damp earth smells.

Snowy Christmas Greetings! Ok, so it is still August and heat wave after heat wave has been rolling in, but there is something about creating a winter scene in my cards that just cools me off (in a good way!)

I cannot get enough of the adorable things you can make with the Tree Lot Dies. I am very sad they were sold out so quickly, as they are adorable for just about anything as you can see in my Vintage Camper Treat Holder video.

I had so much fun going down memories lane scrapping a fun New Years Eve camping trip we had before the big “C” at a local camp ground. I’ve been saving the He’s The Man DSP specifically for this spread as it has the cute Airstream campers! Of course I had to add the sweet little camper from Tree Lot dies

July is World Watercolor month, and I had so much fun pairing watercoloring with the Trees for Sale stamp set and FREE Tree Lot Dies (now sold out)!
