Oh How I Love Snowmen!


Happy Sunday!

It's true ... I do love snowmen. My favourites are the ones my DD makes :D

So given I like these men of ice you had to know that I would likely include one (or some!) on a card somewhere LOL.

This stamp image is called 'Frosty Friends' and was actually released last Christmas, but I couldn't bear to part with such a cute snowman family!

For this third project in my 'Fancy Pants Christmas' class I've made a Pop n Cut card. I wanted to make the inside pop (in more ways than one!) so used some of the great 'Season Of Style' DSP to line the inside.
Here's what I mean ...



You can just make out the popped out sentiment (on the left side) but you get a good look at the DSP.

You know what this card means? Another great reason to sign up for my class!

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek :D

A Merry Little Cut Out

Hello all :)

Todays post is the second project in my upcoming 'Fancy Pants Christmas' card class.

I was inspired by a card I saw by Amy Storrie (Thanks for the inspiration Amy!).

I've used the negative piece of the "Merry" banner I cut out for my gift tag and layered it over some of the new gold foil cardstock. I love that I can use both parts of the Expressions Thinlits!
The DSP is some of the new 'Seasons Of Style'. Am loving that too! LOL
I added some gold thread and its a little hard to make out, but the Christmas sentiment is in gold too.

Thanks for stopping by a taking a peek and have a wonderful weekend whatever you may have planned :D

Gee, Thanks!

Happy Wednesday :)

I've got another upcoming project to share with you today. It's one of the projects for my 'Best Of Flowers' class.
Again I've used the 'Smoky Slate' and 'Blushing Bride' combo. These colours are just so pretty together.
I've added some dry embossing and piercing, and a wee bit of ribbon for a bow.
Simple, sweet and delicately soft!

This week I have been busy working on the first of my Christmas card class projects (I know, I said "that" word!). I have new goodies as well as some retired favourites in mind for my Fancy Pants Christmas "kick off" class. Stay tuned as I will start posting pics in the coming days!

I am also working on ideas for my 'All Day Christmas Class' too and once I have a date confirmed I'll share it with you. I'm going to be busy!

Best Of Flowers


Happy Sunday :)

Today's share is a card for my upcoming class. It uses two images from the SU! 25 Year celebration set called 'Best Of Flowers'.

What I love about the daisy image is that you can punch it out! Better than cutting it out (I know my ladies WILL love this).

I've used the soft and gorgeous 'Smokey Slate' cardstock and paired it with the beautiful 'Blushing Bride'. They are so lovely together.

This is just one of the four projects for the class so be sure to sign up!

Wednesday August 21st / Thursday August 22nd, 7 - 9.30 pm.
