Good afternoon ladies. Hope your weekend has been great and you got a lot of shopping done and some good buys. I stayed home, away from the stores until Saturday afternoon and then I ventured out to WM for some things and meet up with Vickie.


Todays card I'm sharing what Vickie and I did last night. It's an Easel Card. We got the directions over at SCS http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=463458 Pretty easy to do. Even though I could not for the life of me figure it out. Now, I feel like a real dummy they were/are so easy to do. Vicki made hers in Real Red and White and I made mine in Taken With Teal and White. They both turned out great.


This card is a 4x4 card and mailable in a regular A2 envie.


Supplies used: Stamp Set...Delightful Decorations and Many Merry Messages. Ink...Silver Encore. Cardstock....Taken With Teal and White. Misc....Elegant Bouquet Embossing Folder, 1/2 silver pearl stickers, Silver Cording

Metal meets Candle



Good morning ladies. It's NASCAR day!!! Final race of the year. Already looking forward to Feburary when it starts all over again!!!! Hope you have a great Sunday.

Today, I'm sharing a candle wrap that I made using 40gr metal sheet, Petals a Plenty Embossing Folder, sanding block and a few brads. You too, can purchase the directions at http://www.addalittledazzle.com/my_weblog/page/2/ The candles make a great addition to your holiday decorations. And the great thing about these is, you can change out the sleeve for your next home decor liking without having to buy more candles. It's a win/win situation. If you attend one of my workshops, you might find one of these projects that you can make and take home.

That's it for today. Thanks for stoppin by. Have a wonderful Sunday. Remember to keep on stampin, it's good for your soul.

NOEL



Good Morning ladies. Hope your Saturday is starting out wonderful. It's a little on the chilly side this morning, hoping it will warm up. Vicki will be here this afternoon after we make a couple of stops at the local "box stores". We have a couple of projects that we want to do today, then I can share them the first of the week.

Today, I'm sharing a 4-box NOEL Christmas decoration. I made this using Taken With Teal (my favorite color this year) and the SU Petal Card Die, made 4 for each box. Then I used some Holiday Lounge and W White to matt the boxes. The letters were made using my Cricut. Then I added a snow flake from a punch I don't know where I got it or when, but I thought it was a pretty snowflake. The Holly is a Sizzix die that I've had for several years. I used Dew Drops for the Berries. And then the little bird, that's SU Embossilit "Merry". And wrapped it all up with Retired Silver Organdy Ribbon. (Wish they'd come out with it again).

That's it for today. Thanks so much for stoppin by. Remember to keep on stampin, it's good for your soul.

Have a great weekend,

Your SU Friend,

Gift Card Holders

Good Morning ladies, hope this finds you all well and doing wonderful. I've been a bit busy with alot of things and stampin isn't one of them :(

Today, I'm sharing what Vicki, Debbie and I made last Monday nite. Vicki was already here and Debbie came out, she needed to make a gift card holder. This is what we came up with. I didn't take a photo of the inside, but if you would like to see the inside, just let me know and I'll post it.

We used no stamps. Cardstock is Rich Razzleberry, Thoroughly Modern DSP and W White.
We also used the Simple Flower and Sweetest Stems Embossits Dies. We did some piercing on the corners. Used the corner punch for 2 of the corners. Finally, added a little pearl sticker in the middle of the flower.

That's it for today, thanks so much for stoppin by. Have a great weekend.
