Hooked on Noel

I did not like the Trimmings stampset when I saw it, but decided to give it a try, anyway.. and it turns out I love it now! I wanted to have another simple but elegant card, with a different image this time... so I jsut started on a series using the Tree Trimming stamps, working with one color plus embossing at a time. Love it !

In the Christmas Spirit

I am working on the incredible amount of cards I have to send this Christmas - and here's one from today... even though I made about 18 today alone, all different !!

xmas_red01I love this one because it's easy to make and yet it looks like a million bucks ! And it's elegant - I love the going gray / red riding hood (hee hee) combo, especially topped with the gorgeous tafetta ribbon and silver embossing powder on whisper white !!

ah, I am definitely getting into the whole Christmas spirit already. Where is my snow ??!?

A Big Thanks to You!

I spent the most lovely afternoon with a great bunch of beautiful, creative and fun women! Thank you for all the fun! Fiona and I had a blast creating with all of you - we appreciate your time and your donations - we raised more than $500 and the Breast Cancer Research Center truly appreciates it! A Big Thank You to Stampin' Up for providing all the wonderful goodies we could distribute amongst our fabulous girls today!

Almost time !

Wow - it has been so much fun to prepare for the Girl's Night In tomorrow ! Fiona and I have been really busy with the preparations to an afternoon that promises to be a lot of fun! Are you ready ?

Also, thinking ahead a little, I am sure you are - like me - already putting together some of the zillion Christmas cards you need to send out to those special friends and family members who live far away...

Next week I will be having 3 classes on Christmas cards - here's a sample of what we will be making... You will make 10 cards of the same series - you may vary the color of the card stock if you wish. See you tomorrow !

Hoot Hoot to Breast Cancer Awareness

A punch art card was long due - and this time I had a good excuse to make a Pink one !! And here you go. What you cannot see , though, is the absolutely gorgeous shimmer you get when looking at it closely... I got the effect by using Frost White shimmer ink (SU! USA) in rubbing alcohol in a sprit bottle. Amazing effect !!!
