Your Presents

A quick and easy card that uses the Your Presents stamp set, but would be just as easy to make on your own with DSP or even solid color cardstock and some ribbon or Gold Cording.  The Brick Wall Embossing Folder provides a cute background and the Jolly framelit comes from the Christmas Greetings Thinlits collection.  Fun and quick!

Another simple card created with the Your Presents stamp set and the Red Striped ribbon, along with the Gold Cording.  A strip of Gold Foil adds elegance.  The sentiment is stamped in Gold ink and the Real Red cardstock is punched out with the Scallop Oval punch, one of my favorite punches.

Here's a way to use the same stamp set for a Thank You or Birthday card.  The gift bag uses a Doily and Gold Cording and the background is embossed with the Large Polka Dot Embossing Folder.  The sentiment is stamped in Whisper White Craft Ink (give it a few hours to dry!) and hand cut.

I hope you're having fun this weekend preparing for Christmas festivities next week.  We made gingerbread houses this afternoon!  So fun.

Thankful for Lighthearted Leaves!

Here is a gorgeous Stamp Setthat really comes alive when you use the Gold Embossing Powder with it.  The colors are added with Stampin' Markers.  The leaves in the background are stamped using Versamark Ink.  A tiny piece of Gold Metallic Thread makes the leaf sparkle.  So pretty!

This friendly card uses one of the leaves from the same Stamp Set (Lighthearted Leaves) to created a modern, geometric pattern.  The "Hello" is from the Greetings Thinlits set, punched out of Gold Glimmer paper, using the Big Shot.  A few dabs of glue with some Gold Glitter add a bit of extra bling.

This last card showcases some of the pretty Into the Woods Designer Series Paper.  A few Rhinestones and some Gold Cording finish it off.  This card would make a nice masculine birthday card, too!

I have one more set of Thanksgiving cards to share and then I will start sharing some beautiful Christmas cards!
