I hope that everyone had a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving with family and friends! I know that we are running on Thanksgiving comas today.

Today's featured Christmas card is designed using the Cricut Artbooking cartridge and a Spellbinders border die.  I love the plaid patterned paper over an invereted swiss dot embossed cardstock.  

Wishing each of you a wonderful Thanksgiving full of family warmth and cheer.  

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Inspired by the Close To My Heart Workshops On The Go Sparkle & Shine collection this card was quick and easy to make

Today's card  - designed by Emili - features a vintage look with distressed inks and Snowman die - both by TIM HOLTZ...

Today's favorite Christmas card was designed with Graphic 45 paper, Spectrum Noir markers and a stamp by S.W.A.L.K.  So Cute!!!

Dryer Sheet Technique!  Sometimes when I see a stamp I see one vision only - this is one of those stamps - I couldn't wait to finish this one. With the help of a some fine snow glitter and a dryer sheet this is today's favorite Christmas card design!!!

As we continue to fill our Holiday card orders trying to find the days favorites becomes tough!  Here is one for today

I love making cards for the holidays and filling years orders with new stamps and colors is turning out great!  Here is today's favorite card featuring Close To My Heart holiday cardstock:

Hello friends!  It is a beautiful day at the beach. The weather is beautiful with the colors of fall all around. The surf was quite loud throughout the night and wonderful to relax to. The waves hitting the shore is hypnotic. Just one of God's wonderful blessings.

We have begun our holiday cards and today's premier card features an elegant stamp from the Close To My Heart My Acrylix cling stamp set "Mary and Babe" C1562.  The paper used in this set is also from Close To My Heart Frosted Paper Packet X7175B.

The stamp itself is colored with pencils. It can also be done with alcohol markers. 

You can order the Mary and Babe set along with the Frosted Paper Packet at

Making baby shower invitations is always exciting and we had loads of fun with our most recent client order of these adorable invitations.  Our client wanted something simple, somewhat uniform but each a bit different.  They brought us their idea plans gave us paper and theme guidelines.  It was a huge order (original order was for 80 cards) and it shipped on time. They were very simple and quick to make. Here are a few of those cards:
