Holiday Card Series | Card #13 | Simon Says Stamp

Hello there!  Welcome to Card 13 in my HCS for 2016!  Today, I am using a stamp set that released last year with Simon Says Stamp that I didn't get to play with.  I also used the Crate Paper Bundled Up 6x6 pad also from last year!

Today's card is pretty simple, but I love the color scheme.  I love the embossed images to help add that extra "something" to the card

I used my MISTI tool to stamp out my trees as these are solid images, and I wanted to ensure that I got a good impression of these images.  

For the inside of my card, I decided to emboss just like I did on the outside to complete the card design.  For full details of how I put this card together, I invite you to watch the video tutorial! All the supplies used are listed below!  See you soon!

Sending Valentine Hugs + video

Hi all!!
I am popping in to share this Valentine's Day Card with all of you.  This one I did a video tutorial.  I like sharing video tutorials with you when I can!  If you are not yet subscribed to my YouTube Channel, please do so.  When you subscribe, you will know when I publish a new video, which is fairly often!!

 

I can't get enough of In My Heart from Mama Elephant!  It is one of my favorites ever!!  I also use some pattern paper from Crate paper that I love that I really haven't used.  All of the details of products I used are listed in the videos description if you are interested.

Here is the video :)

See you all soon!!

Holiday Wishes

Happy Monday :)  We are just days away from Christmas!  Hard to believe, but I welcome it!!  I wanted to share with you this card I made over a couple of weekends ago.  I wanted to use some of my favorite patterned papers from this season from Crate Paper - Bundled Up.

These colors are no traditional but that is why I love it so much - fun and different!!  I just love these papers!!  I used my favorite dies - the Femme Frames from Mama Elephant yet again ( yes - I am obsessed) and also used the Wrapped Mailing Label Die from Simon Says Stamp for my middle panel on my card.  With a mixture of small embellies, and crocheted ribbon this makes for a fun over Holiday card.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays :)

It's my birthday!! Be Merry and Bright!

Hello lovelies!
I wanted to pop in today quickly and share with you one of the cards I had the chance to create this weekend during the long Thanksgiving holiday!

Today is my birthday - I am ....thirty - flooaghoahd - HAHA!  Seriously - I am turning 37 today! WOW! Where DOES the time go??

I've been blessed with numerous happy birthday wishes and love from my family and friends.  I feel blessed!

I am really liking this trend where you create "wonky" panels on cards - its different and fun!  So - I wanted to make my own creation this way.  I took some pattern papers from the "Bundle Up" Collection from Crate Paper - LOVE this paper!! I die cut it from the scallop frame from Mama Elephant - Femme Frames - again - I'm obsessed!!

I adhered my die cut panel to some Simon Says Stamp Wood grain card stock which is my base.  I die cut a banner from the small banners die also from Simon Says Stamp, and I stamped and heat embossed  " & Bright" from the Merry and Bright greeting that comes in the Small Folded Banners Holiday stamp set from SSS.  I love the wood elements that SSS came out with last year and I had some left over, so I used the "Merry" to complete my sentiment. To finish off my card, I just added some fun sequin embellishments from Lawn Fawn.

Well - gonna wrap this up and go celebrate as if were my birthday :) *grin*
