Skating Mice Thank You Card!

Hello! I am over on the Gerda Steiner Designs Blog today with a sweet Thank You card using the adorable Gerda Steiner Designs Ice Skating Mouse digital stamp . This would be a lovely Thanksgiving card as well, or with a quick paper swap a cute holiday card! I used the pretty papers and embellishments from the November SCT Sampler Pack and a sketch from the SCT Fall 2019 Sketches (check out the sketch at the bottom of the post). I even matched the little outfits on the mice to the paper 😉 Honestly, what could be cuter than an animal in a sweater!!

I used the Studio Katia Autumn Borders Stamp to add a sentiment on the outside and inside of the card. BTW, Studio Katia is having an amazing sale right now.... just sayin'! Use code BF2019 to save 38% until November 30/19 - check out the details and any current promos HERE.

Be sure to head over to the  Gerda Steiner Designs Blog for all the details and closeups!! You'll find out how I turned one digi stamp into two mice skating together! To all my US friends, Happy Thanksgiving 💛 I am definitely thankful for all you sweet friends who stop by and take your time to check out what I've been working on. Have a fantastic week!!

Backyard Fun Scrapbooking!

Hello friends! I'm over on the Wild Whisper Designs Blog today with a wintry scrapbook layout using the new Wild Whisper Canadian Winter collection. I love the colours and images in this collection - not your typical winter scrapbook product - and it's so fun!! I based my layout on a sketch from the SCT365-2019 Layout Class using the November sketch.

Candy Cane Snowflake Card-Lift with Video!

Hello friends! I'm so excited to join Jennifer and Daisie for their fabulous Christmas Card-Lift Series on YouTube today with a Candy Cane Snowflake Card! This week we are lifting a card design from the lovely Antonia Florence on the Taffleberry Lane YouTube Channel.

I decided to use my Tim Holtz Stamp press and make 4 cards at once! The new Snowflake Stamp Set from Studio Katia has beautiful large snowflakes and made it easy to get this card started. I then filled in areas using snowflakes from other stamp sets including the Kraftin' Kimmie Elf-Tacular set, Hello Bluebird Quiet Christmas, Studio Katia Origami Winter and Pink and Main Snowglobe sets. These ink colours are not my go to Christmas colours, but I love how it turned out.

I embossed a Merry Christmas Greeting with Emerald Creek Spiced Candy embossing powder, which actually smells like cinnamon! I then added an embossed candy cane stamp embellished with Stickles and Glossy Accents.

I finished off the card with some pretty sequins from SpiegelMom Scraps and Studio Katia.

Here's a look at the video where you can see just how I put this card together-

Fire In Our Hearts Skating Layout!

Howdy! Well, we had snow this week, which has just melted away, but it definitely got me in to the mood to create with the Wild Whisper Canadian Winter collection! I'm over on the Wild Whisper Designs Blog today sharing a cute skating layout from when my youngest daughter, Erica, and I used to head to the rink - before she started school. It seems so long ago... It was fun to get these photos scrapped and reminisce!

Snowy Season's Greetings Card!

Hello friends! I'm back today with a snowy Season's Greetings card using embossing powders, brads and stamps from Emerald Creek along with Distress Oxide Sprays and Kraftin' Kimmie Ink. The challenge on the Emerald Creek Blog this month is a wintry one with inspiration from the song Aspenglow by John Denver. I chose to use the Mountain Range stamp and a pretty snowflake stencil, and I think it looks very wintry indeed!

Peace Christmas Decor Tag!

Hello! Well, Christmas is coming in 51 sleeps... yeah my 7 year old made me download the app! I figured I should do some stress-free Christmas crafting before that realization hits that you have 5 teacher gifts and 10 stocking stuffers to make in two days, lol. So, I was at a crop over the weekend and decided to enjoy making a lovely and peaceful tag using some fun supplies from the Southern Ridge Trading Company Shop. I pulled out a Chipboard Tag, 3x3 Star Stencil, Soda Fizz Stencil, Words Of Christmas set and Cedar Trees pack and got crafty! You can visit the SRTC  Blog for a How To Tutorial in case you'd like to see just how I made it.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Be sure to head over to the Southern Ridge Trading Company Blog where you can find all the how-to details, closeups and supplies for this festive tag. Have a wonderful week friends!
