So Sorry

Hi Stampin' Friends

Frequency Buyers Rewards

Hostess Club #2 now forming

A friend's husband had an accident over Easter weekend and I thought I would send him a card.  As usual, I don't have a stash of masculine cards so I thought I would make a quick and easy card for him.

I used My Digital Studio for the sentiment.  I have the So Sorry Clear Mount Stamp Set but I was in My  Digital Studio working on another project and decided to create the colorful sentiment.  

I think it took me all of about 15 minutes to create this card.

We just don't have masculine designer series paper in this year's catalog so I am using the retired Orchard Harvest Designer Series Paper from the Holiday Catalog.

If you need any supplies to make this project, please visit my Stampin' Store for 24/7 service.  Or I can place the order for you - just shoot me an e-mail!

Lovely as a tree

Hi Stampin' Friends

A moment of silence for the Hostess Ding Dong!   I bought a box about a week before I heard the news that the company was closing down and this is the last one from that box.  As you may have heard, the company closed down amid continued financial difficulties.  No more Ding Dongs!

This was one of my favorite snacks to eat with my 3:00 pm coffee break.  I have heard of them selling on Amazon from $39.00 to $99.00 per box but I am not willing to pay that price no matter how much I love them!

For today's card, I used the Lovely As A Tree Stamp Brush Set.  With a variety of trees to choose from, the Lovely As a Tree set offers so many options. Stamp a solitary tree or stamp an image multiple times to create your own forest

The sentiment is from Heard From The Heart Stamp Brush Set.  Nothing beats a kind word spoken from the heart. With the sentiments in this brush set, you can send your sincere wishes and love to someone special.

The image was printed out in Midnight Muse and Dazzling Diamonds Glitter Glue was added to the trees and the ground underneath the trees. 

It was layered over Midnight Muse card Stock, then Silver Glimmer Paper.  The base card is Midnight Muse.  It's quite striking in real life - wish you could see it.

Please note:

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hi Stampin' Friends

Black Friday/Cyber Money Special

FREE Amazing Fun Card Kit Tutorial

This time of year, we take a moment to be thankful for so many things.  I am so grateful for  my husband, my beautiful daughters and their husbands, my grandchildren, family and friends, new and old.

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays.  I love the beauty of the season, including how the leaves change to such radiant colors.  I love the rich comfort foods that my husband makes.  My husband will be making Thanksgiving this year and for this I am so grateful because I hate to cook!

In the end, I know there will always be things that we could complain about.  Such is life, but I am so grateful for a holiday that reminds us that despite the things we may be concerned with, we truly have a lot to be thankful for.

WHOOHOO - I just received my Sizzix Texture Boutique Embossing Machine!  I know what I will be playing with tomorrow!  Another reason to be thankful - I love my UPS guy!

Have a great day and don't eat too much turkey!
