Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our great-granddaughter’s birthday just 2 days after Christmas.

Her birthday party invitations are with a Wicked theme so I thought this picture of her when she went to see Wicked would be cute on a birthday card. Frame was found online, and sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program.

Hello and welcome. Had to take a break from Christmas cards to make our grandson’s birthday card. I like the red, black & touch of white combo for masculine cards. Red layer was embossed with Cuttlebug’s Happy Birthday ef, die cuts are stitched squares by Die-namics. strips were cut from pp found in my stash. Sentiment was printed in my Hallmark card program and I added clip art candle numbers.

Hello and welcome. Sympathy cards are never easy to do but today’s card was really a tuff one. This is for a good family friend who’s 43-year-old daughter committed suicide. I just can’t imagine how difficult that is to deal with.

Embossing folder used is Textiles by Cuttlebug and flower dies are Flourish Thinlits by Stampin Up, label die is Rose Garden Thinlits by Stampin Up. After cutting the label I realized there was like a debossed frame outline left on the cs so I thought why not cut one in black then fussy cut the frame and lay the white label inside it. I hope you can make sense of that. Sentiment was printed on the computer.

Hello and welcome. For some reason I wanted to make a card with a circle and Santa face. Embossing folder used is from The Paper Studio, circles are Spellbinders classic and scalloped circle dies, image was found online. For once it really didn’t take me too long to get the sentiment curved right. I’m kind of happy with the end result.

Wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving. I’m so excited, tomorrow our daughter and her family will be coming to celebrate the holiday with us.

Hello and welcome. The Santa frame and stars are from Stampin Up’s Detailed Santa Thinlits and the sentiment is Spellbinders dies. Sentiment is two layers, red cs and red glitter cs, stars were cut from silver glitter cs. Before cutting sentiment and stars I backed the papers with some self-adhesive paper. I wasn’t too sure about the stars at first but I do like them.

Hello and welcome. When I started this card, I had no idea how it would turn out. I started with an unbranded ef, Stampin Up’s Framelits Holiday Ornaments dies, sentiment die by Spellbinders. Ornaments are cut from red glitter cardstock, and I hand cut the tops from gold glitter paper, cording was in my stash. I couldn’t decide if I wanted the sentiment in red or green, so I cut both then decided to do them the way you see. Before cutting the words, I added self-adhesive backing to the cs. Words have Wink of Stella added for a little shine. Hubby liked it so I guess it’s ok.

Hello and welcome. This card is a CASE of one I saw on Pinterest. The background paper was in my stash. For the square cut out in the frame layer I used a Spellbinders classic square die then ran the piece through a Cuttlebug snowflake ef. Punches used for the snowman are 1 3/4, 3/4″ circles for body and hands, hat is a 1″square with the top corners rounded, Word Window for the hat band, eyes and heart cheeks are hand punches, nose was hand cut, mouth was drawn. Holly in the hat is from an unbranded die set. I used a sponge dauber with Bashful Blue stamp pad to edge the circles. Sentiment was printed on the computer and the tags were cut with my paper trimmer. Snowflakes are from a small punch.

Hello and welcome. Time for DOS chuckle of the month card. As usual, image and sentiment “Some people refuse to admit their faults and flaws. I would if I had any.” were found online. Because it’s been a while since I made a slimline card, I decided to make this a mini slimline. Since it’s so plain, beyond CAS, I decided to score 1/2″ squares down each side to add some texture. I’m not too sure about this one but DOS liked it.

Hello and welcome. For today’s card I cut a 5 1/4 x 4 piece of Pumpkin Pie to layer on the Soft Suede card base then cut the PP layer 1″ shorter and cut from the top right corner to 1″ from bottom left. I adhered the PP after the sentiment was printed. Pilgrim hats are computer clip art. It took a few tries on scrap paper to get the sentiment angle right, but I think it came out ok. I’m not sure if I’m happy with the end result or not.
