Spellbinders Friendship is Everything Cards

I’m back today with two Spellbinders Friendship is Everything Cards. The Glimmer Monthly Club for December is this beautiful floral cluster. It’s the perfect size to copic color, or if you’re time-deprived, a quick run through the foiling machine on some colored card stock results in an elegant overlay for your special card.

Die-Cut Snowflake Cards

Today’s Card-Making Video features two Die-Cut Snowflake Cards, created with new and old snowflake dies from Waffle Flowers. Pink and Mint Green are on trend this holiday season, so I incorporated both colors into my design. I added a little background noise with some stenciling and completed my cards with a fabulously adorable little die-cut snowman and some bling, of course.

Trying to Win the Ugly Christmas Sweater Contest

I had fun with this one, Trying to Win the Ugly Christmas Sweater Contest. It started with this month’s Embossing Folder Club, the lovely Checkered Argyle, which is quite conservative and lovely. Then I decided our little Festive Friends needed to be included (Small Die of the Month Club), and after I got his sweater all argyled to match the background, I thought, “Ugly Christmas Sweater.” So I grabbed the reindeer dies from the Large Die of the Month Club, Cozy Toes Slippers.

Tim Holtz Halloween Cards

Today, I had a little break from work, so I decided to grab all the Halloween Dies I keep buying and have some fun. So today, I have 3 Tim Holtz Halloween cards to share with you. I can’t resist Tim’s dies and every time I watch one of his lives, I’m in there buying (I’m sure you can relate, haha). I have had so many work commitments lately that there has been no time to play. That’s making me cranky, so it’s a play day. hope you like them.

As today is the 6th, the clubs are open for purchase, and you don’t want to miss this month; they are fabulous! I started with the Cozy Toes Slippers Dies because it reminded me of my own Christmas as a kid; my mom used to buy us funny slippers. It was so much fun to see what we got each year, although some of them were kind of hard to walk in, haha

Mint Green Halloween Card

The spooky season is almost upon us, so today’s project is a Mint Green Halloween card. I’m using the Simon Says Stamp Halloween Friends stamp set for today’s card and a few other goodies. It’s so much fun making greeting cards for this season, as you can be as silly or scary as you like. I have so many Halloween card ideas that it’s tough to find a place to start, LOL, but today, I decided on Mint Green as my base color to challenge myself to create a cute Halloween card without a lot of black cardstock.
