Music Notes For You

Can you see the music notes on the card base? I love this Stampin' Around wheel. Unfortunate though I did not have a handle and it is really hard to get those wheels to roll straight without a handle! The back of this card is even worse because it was suppose to be the front until whoops, the wheel dipped over the the left!

I just had a thought, this colour combo would make a nice snowflake card!

Did anyone else make BIG plans for their Christmas crafting but just ran out of time? It happens to me every year! I did sneak in more than usual. I will try to come back and post those items in the New Year!

Supplies
Stamps: Just Believe, Music Notes Wheel
Ink: Crumb Cake, Baja Breeze, Pink Pirouette, Very Vanilla Craft Ink
Paper: Baja Breeze, Pink Pirouette, Very Vanilla, Crumb Cake
Accessories: Crumb Cake designer button, glue dot, Vanilla Seam binding, stampin' dimensionals, pearls

Happy New Year

O Christmas Tree!

O Christmas Tree how beautiful your branches! This tree is embossed with Iridescent Ice to create a little sparkle! I used Versamark and Classic Inks (see my tutorial here for how to do this). And I love those Rhinestones, they have an adhesive on the back so they pop onto a card really easily!

Supplies
Stamps: Snow Swirled
Ink: Crumb Cake, Versamark, Stampin' Write marker: Cherry Cobbler
Paper: Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla
Accessories: Very Vanilla 5/8" satin ribbon, sticky strip, Iridescent Ice embossing powder, stampin' dimensionals, rhinestones

Merry Christmas!

Joy to the World!

Joy to the World! I was inspired by Jackie Wright and her beautiful card. At first I was going to completely case her card, but my mom needed ideas for Christmas cards and at the time neither my mother nor I owned the French Foliage stamp set. This card is versatile though, I think I ended up tearing off the sentiment and adding a birthday one instead and sent it to my brother-in-law. Shh don't tell anyone, okay?

Supplies
Stamps: Autumn Splendor, Jolly Jingles Jumbo wheel
Ink: Old Olive, Versamark, Stampin Write Marker: Old Olive
Paper: Old Olive, Whisper White, Riding Hood Red, Brights Collection Designer Paper
Accessories: Gold embossing powder, scallop trim punch, decorative label punch, stampin' dimensionals, Vanilla seam binding

Deck the Halls!

It's starting to look a little like Christmas out there, minus the snow! But the snow can stay away until Christmas Eve! I am looking forward to putting up our Christmas tree this weekend and dragging out the decorations.

To create me Deck the Halls! card: Use the pine tree from Lovely As A Tree to create the branches and punch out your ornament to "hang" it from the branches! I used 2 stampin' dimensionals to pop up the ornament.

ETA: I just had to say something about snow didn't I?! Of course all that rain we've had turned to snow this afternoon!

Supplies
Stamps: Lovely as a Tree, Delightful Decorations, Woodgrain background
Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green, Crumb Cake
Paper: Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Whisper White
Accessories: Ornament punch, stampin' dimensionals, silver cord (retired)

Merry Christmas
