Pinecones & Plaid

Merry Monday #121 {Pine Cones, Greens & Plaid Ribbon!}

I realized I really don’t have any pinecone stamps!

Hi, just popping in with a quick post. My DH has been gone all week, on his Canada fishing trip with friends. He comes home tonight,

I have been trying to shake a headache all day.

I colored these leaves with my Tim Holtz Distress Markers. I really enjoyed doing this. It helps to have the gold embossing to keep the ink from running. (out of the lines:)

Pink and Green Christmas

Blog Hop Winner!

SSCB#29 Stitches

Jeanne updated our badge so it might be easier to know what the current challenge is.

Love it and thanks Jeanne.

The DT was asked to emboss with a die . I love doing this anyway .

I use Serendipity Stamps beautiful Bird Die and the Peace Small stamp for this card. I used the tale of the bird for my banner at the edge. I also used LID for the stitched edge… Its almost a staple for me. I also used my new rulers from Perfect Paper Crafting to get a very fine frame around my embossed white paper.

I hope you find some time to play along.

Thank you for all your kind words , thoughts and prayers for Olga and our family.

I decided to make this card for another challenge as well:Merry Monday Not my normal color scheme but a fun one.

Free Shipping on all US orders of $10 or more. This is a great chance to snap up the stamps from the Wood Mounted Stamp sale and to throw in some grab bags. Good through 3/26.

Snowy in his Knitted hat...

I chose this little guy and the sled from Purple Onion Designs His name is Snowy…. Isn’t he so cute! These are from the Stacey Yacula Holiday 2013 collection. I used my shimmer pens on his hat and sled. Hope you can find some time to play along … I know how busy everyone is this time of year.

Merry Mondays

Merry Monday #83 {Stripes, Red, Chocolate with Stars or Hearts}

This first one is a better picture but look closely and see what I forgot to add:

My Dark Chocolate tree trunk from Lil Inkers tree.

Good morning !

I want to take a min. and thank you all for your sweet comments. I am very grateful for each and every one of you.

I loved the inspiration photo with the deep red and dark chocolate. For this card…. at first... I used the stacked coffee cups then a different tree. Then changed it all up again.

The red and white polka dot is washi tape on cardstock then I made my cuts. The tree is from Papertrey Ink, the stars are from WPlus9, sentiment is from PTI , frame and tree trunk are from Lil Inkers Design and embossing folder Cuttlegug. ( I don't think they make it anymore.)

Thank You!
