Welcome to Day 10 of our series on CAS Christmas cards.  Today I went with classic black and white. These cards are both made with the same set — a clear set by Wordsworth called Messiah.  The set has a total of 7 stamps, and I’ve used 6 of them today. All stamps by Rubber Soul/Wordsworth […]

Welcome to Day 3 of The 12 Days of a Clean and Simple Christmas – Stamp Simply Style.  I have a very easy and quick trio of cards today, but first we have the winner from last Saturday’s Ribbon Inspiration/Stamp Simply Style.  The winner was selected from Deb’s Blog and she won a beautiful selection of  Silk […]

Welcome to another weekly installation of  Ribbon Inspiration/Stamp Simply Style.  Today we are focusing on Pleats or Ruffles.  The Design Team could either use pre-pleated ribbon OR make their own pleats or ruffles out of any type of ribbon. They all took the easy route and use pre-pleated ribbon, but that’s totally OK — I did […]

All product in stock by K & Company is on sale today.  I’m still in that never ending battle to make room for new incoming product and when I saw the post this morning by Deb Saaranen it spurred me to inspect my stock of K & Company.  She put together a wonderful card with […]

This morning I took the time to do something I’ve wanted to do since first setting eyes on this particular piece of lace by May Arts.  I envisioned it gathered up the center with a strip of 1/8″ Velvet placed over the gathering stitches — so that was today’s mission — MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!!  Here’s my […]

Prima Roses, Spellbinders Leaves and lovely little trees in autumn and Christmas themed 6×6 pads by Imaginisce, plus a few other goodies as well.  Let’s start with the card I made using Apple Cider, a 6×6 pad with darling, small-scaled images.  And it was the small scale of the images/patterns in these pads by Imaginisce […]

Halloween in Wonderland, this year’s Halloween offering by Graphic 45 is available in a fun 8×8 pad!  I chose it for my Halloween paper this year as I loved the colors it offered — rich hues of purples, blues, greens and rusty oranges.  Another thing I really liked about this pad is that though many of […]
