Stamp Review Crew: Jingle All the Way

Let's be real - it is the first week of December and we are already feeling the pressure that comes with the holidays! No worries - if you want a beautiful yet oh so simple Christmas card look no further! This set with the coordinating thinlits does all the work for you.  I paired it with that fabulous DSP Winter Wonderland to get elegant and classic Christmas cards.  You can sit in front of the TV enjoying those holiday classics while you crank the Big Shot and trim the paper! Looking for something a bit more complicated?  Come see me mid-January!

If you haven't seen Mike Funke's wonderful work head back there!  I am the end of the line but if you missed the beginning move on to my good friend Dawn Tidd's blog!  She always has wonderful "Tiddbits" in store!

Morning Wake Up.......CTS151

In the spirit of total disclosure I admit to perhaps a scream or two when I opened the email from Chrissy asking me to be a guest designer this week at CAS(E) this Sketch!  I am delighted to join in with such a talented group of gals this week!

This card is truly all about the stamping!  I stamped 15 circles in Soft Sky then stamped 14 cups with Pear Pizzazz. Real Red was perfect for that wake up cup! It seems fitting that Early Espresso ink finished it up!

So grab your morning cup of whatever gets you going and enjoy the wonderful cards this team has for you!  Once you are inspired I hope you will join in at CAS(E) this Sketch!  It is a fun sketch....enjoy!

Stamps Used: Lil' Inker Coffee Cozy, Lawn Fawn My Cup of Tea
Inks: Stampin' Up! Early Espresso, Soft Sky, Pear Pizzazz

Merry Everything! PPA278, CTS150

We are headed to the tree farm to get our Christmas tree this weekend.  I love seeing the steady stream of cars headed down the road loaded with trees each year.  Wouldn't it be fun to be able to have one already decorated and lit up for the ride home?

If your holiday cards aren't done there is a great color combo at Pals Paper Arts this week to get you going!

I was inspired by this sketch at CAS(E) this Sketch.

Christmas Flurries.....FMS215

I'm ready - it can snow any time now!  We had a wonderful Thanksgiving last week......great food......family fun.....and a beautiful mild day.  But I have turned the calendar page! We always hope for a snowy Christmas so a card using Flurry of Wishes was exactly what I was in the mood to make!

Someone I know already has a fun pair of pajamas to wear Christmas morning!

My snow loving friend (NOT) Jen Mitchell should enjoy the card I made this week using her wonderful sketch!  Hope you join us at Freshly Made Sketches!
