A Bright Christmas Card

Hello everyone! 

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I just wanted to share a little Christmas card with you that I made over the weekend. 

I love Christmas lights, especially the ones that are all multi-colored and bright, and I saw something that inspired me to design this one that makes me think of a wreath of lights.

Take a look:

Halloween Paper Pumpkin Card

Halloween is upon us! I made some cute cards to give to some friends, using a couple of the past Paper Pumpkin kits. Hope everyone has a fun day, and a not-to-spooky evening! Happy Halloween everyone!

I love doing a z-fold card. First you fold it in half, then fold the top half back on itself, in half again. I don't think the Paper Pumpkin kits I used are still available, and neither is the Pumpkin Pie Glimmer Paper, but that's okay. It's still cute!

 All supplies used are from Stampin' Up!:

Stamps: Paper Pumpkin: Sept. 2014 - Boo-tiful Bags, and Sept. 2015 - Wickedly Sweet Treat

Inks: Archival Basic Black, Rich Razzleberry, Pumpkin Pie, Lemon Lime Twist

Cardstock: Pumpkin Pie, Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry, Cardstock Vellum

Accessories: Pumpkin Pie Glimmer Paper

Again, I hope everyone has a happy Halloween, and thanks for stopping by!

#tgifc30 - White Christmas

So, I saw that the theme for the current challenge over at TGIF Challenges Blog was "White Christmas, and I just happened to have made this card recently, so I thought, "Perfect! Until I went to write this post and realized that the "Bright and Beautiful" stamp set was retired last year! (What!!?) Oh well.  I still think it turned out really pretty.

So the challenge is themed "White Christmas". I think it fits. Here it is:

All supplies are from Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted:

Stamp set: Bright and Beautiful (retired)

Cardstock: Whisper White Thick

Ink: VersaMark Watermark Ink Pad

Accessories: Gold Glimmer Paper, Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder, Big Shot, Stars Framelits Dies, Lucky Stars Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Whisper White 1/4" Cotton Ribbon, Stampin' Dimensionals

It embossed up nicely, don't you think?

Here is the badge for the challenge theme (#tgifc30):

A Generic Wedding Card

A little while back I had a friend call me and ask if I had any wedding cards on hand. I don't usually have any wedding cards in my "stash" because I usually like to make a wedding card specifically for the happy couple. I usually know at least one of them so I can make something extra special for their wedding. In this case, I did not know either the bride or the groom, so I just had to make something "generic". Now, don't get me wrong. A generic card can still be pretty and special. I hope you like my "generic" wedding card.

Supplies (all come from Stampin' Up!):

Stamp sets: Label Love, Chalk Talk, Regarding Dahlias

Cardstock: Elegant Eggplant, Very Vanilla

Ink Colors: Elegant Eggplant

Punch: Artisan Label

Accessories: Champagne Glimmer Paper, Very Vanilla 5/8" Satin Ribbon, Sizzix Big Shot, Chalk Talk Framelits, Beautifully Baroque Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Glue, Stampin' Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots

I hope you like my card. Not bad for generic, huh. If you would like to order any of these supplies, leave me a comment at the end of this post. I would be glad to help you.

Thanks for visiting my blog.
