I actually haven't done any baking yet this year. Usually by now, I've made my rum cake at least once and usually some cookies too. Hopefully, I'll have a chance to make something before the holidays. I found a card similar to this one but it used Valentine's stamps and dies. I thought it would be a fun card to recreate as a Holiday card. The Homemade Treats bundle is filled with lots of little baking treats and accessories. I used the … [Read more...] about Tis The Season
Holiday Mini
Instagram Strikes Again
While I was scrolling through Instagram, I saw a party set-up with these mini domed charcuterie trays filled with cheeses and fruit. These mini cheese trays are only about 4" across to give you an idea of how tiny they are. I thought this domed tray would be perfect for a mini diorama. I used the Humble Home stamp and punch bundle to make a 3D house. To make sure everything stayed in place inside, I cut a piece of vellum and glued both the … [Read more...] about Instagram Strikes Again

Thanks!
The Holiday season is flying by and it'll be January before we know it. I've been making an effort to use the last couple of stamp sets that I hadn't used yet from the August-December Catalog before it ends. One set I haven't had a chance to use very much is the Warmest Hearts bundles. Today's is a quick card using the thermos from the stamp set again. I just love the plaid look on the thermos. I still have another Holiday stamp set to … [Read more...] about Thanks!
A Rainbow Of Trees
While I still had the Merriest Trees bundle on my desk, I couldn't resist making a rainbow forest. I used my blending brushes to add some color to the white card stock behind each of the trees. I used the same five ink colors to match the five card stock colors. I placed the yellow tree in the center first. Then I added the red and green trees on the ends. Then the orange and blue trees fit in the middle. The card needed a little something more … [Read more...] about A Rainbow Of Trees
Festive Tags
One of the more recent kits in the Kit Collection is Festive Tags. This kit makes five different tags, three each of the five designs. That gives me 15 tags all ready to go for the holidays. For those of you that are nervous stampers, no need to stress about this kit because there is no stamping involved. All of the sentiments are stickers! This kit was so easy to put together. Most of the time, I assemble the kits just as they are. The … [Read more...] about Festive Tags
