Sweet blog friends, the fog of Christmas dinner has worn off and we’re turning the corner!  Reality hits as it is three days from the beginning of a new year!!  I really got caught up in Holiday cards quite late but wait until you see how far ahead of the game I am today – Mothers Day!!  I have a soft, feminine card to share – it makes me want to have several to share around.  You just know that I could never deny pink so I wallowed in my comfort zone today.  In fact, that will be one of my New Year’s resolutions – that it’s okay to make your own heart sing by doing the things you really enjoy!! This past month has found me being very kind to myself – beating myself up has stopped.  I’d encourage the same thing for you in the coming year – life is short.

I chose a pink ink and pearls to showcase this sweetly feminine background stamp called Elegant Damask Background from JustRite Papercrafts — it’s truly so stunning that I dare not cover it up!  I cut the background using Spellbinders™ Labels Eight which I framed with Spellbinders™ Decorative Labels Eight.  The sentiment from the Hugs and Kisses Sentiments set spans the card horizontally framed by Spellbinders™ French Frills.  I do like depth on my cards so I cut tiny pieces of foam tape to lift up the frame made with Decorative Labels Eight.   Lastly, an easy bow tied with the Bow Maker and embellished with a pearl and crystal and corsage pin make it undoubtedly girly!

By the way, ‘everything’ on the JustRite Papercrafts site is 25% off, just in case you want to get a jump on Valentines Day and Mothers Day or like me, you have a couple of gift cards from the holidays to satisfy your stamping wish list :-)

SUPPLIES I USED

    Your cards are just beautiful. I love them.ReplyCancel


Brrrrr!!  Huddle up blog friends, it’s cold!!  I think the frosty temperatures inspired me to break out snowflake dies and stamps :-)  Plus, some serendipity to share.  While I was scrounging around my table for an embellishment to decorate my white bow, I just couldn’t find anything.  Nothing in all that stash!  In the past I’ve needed a brad to match something and have embossed it before with a colored embossing powder, but always a small item.  Today I was jazzed when I was able to emboss my filigree with white opaque embossing powder!  It’s the small things, right?


At any rate, for my card today I’m using the Small Snowflake Background as a base.  I layered on snowflakes stamped with the Sparking Snowflakes set and cut with ODBD Custom Snowflake Dies.  My sentiment on the bottom is from the Poinsettia Wreath set, embellished with a tiny snowflake swirl from the Snowflake Mini Set. 

SUPPLIES I USED
StampsOur Daily Bread Designs – Small Snowflake BackgroundSparking Snowflakes set, Poinsettia Wreath, Snowflake Mini Set
Paper: White, Kraft
Ink: Versamark
Accessories:  ODBD Custom Snowflake Dies, Seam Binding, Paper Studio Pearl Stickers, filigree, white embossing powder

Hugs, friends!!  See you soon!!

    I love it– I think I could probably pull this one off.–On your filigree that you embossed.You can also just use Stazon–I have done that to my metal objects for years. Do not need to emboss just wait 10 min or so and let it dry.I had to do that as my heat gun died and could not justify a new one at that point..Santa are you reading this hint hint

    Gorgeous! I’ve got a silver inkpad (oil based for paper, fabric and wood) and it doesn’t show up very well, even on darker papers so I will definitely have to try embossing with white (newbie alert). It looks great on the Kraft paperReplyCancel


Sweet blessings blog friends!!!  I hope you don’t mind another Christmas card!  
Daughter is home and I put this together while we sat at the table to do some catch up.  To me it’s amazing to look back over the years and realize that just as people say, they grow up in the blink of an eye.  I knew it would be this way, but there’s no way to slow it down.  I love it that the holidays bring everyone home — what a comfort!  I hope you are in the midst of your own comfort today.   For my card today I’ve used coppers and mauve and non-traditional colors along with some vintage papers (musical notes and snowy angel) from Crafty Secrets – Creating with Vintage Christmas CD.

I started out with my card base then a panel using the musical notes.  On top of that I layered Spellbinders™ A2 Fancy Ribbon Threader (turned upside down).  On the next layer I included Spellbinders™ Vintage Lace Accents and my snow angel panel topped off by Spellbinders™ Twisted Metal Accents.   Lastly Snowflake Sentiments is cut from Spellbinders™ Back to Basics Tags.  Although it won’t get mailed this year – there’s always room in the stash for another one!!

    Hi Becca,

    What a cozy picture that is in my mind – you and your daughter sitting around a table and catching up on all your news while you’re crafting. That’s exactly what Christmas is really all about, isn’t it?
    I love the Victorian, vintage-y (is that a word? lol) look of this card. It’s such a feminine take on a Christmas card. It looks exactly like the ones they always have on show at a historic site in my home city. It’s the house where Canada’s first Prime Minister lived as a boy and every year they decorate it like crazy for Christmas. The house was built and occupied by his family during the Victoria era and Christmas decorations and gifts were so new and fashionable back then. Spruce and pine trees and boughs are placed and hung all throughout the house. Then the staff go crazy decorating everything with cards, cones and garlands in the same style you chose for your card.

    Thanks for a wonderful reminder of my childhood! Merry Christmas and blessings to you and your family.ReplyCancel

  • Michelle CoonDecember 24, 2012 - 10:02 am
