A True Friend


Hello! I was so excited to have this card be chosen as one of the featured cards last week on the Sweet Stop challenge blog- it was like an early Christmas present! I loved this week's sketch 88 and played along again. Thanks for looking!

Cocoa Penguin


Hello! I hope you're all having a great Christmas Eve! I just got off work and wanted to post this quick before getting ready to head to my aunt and uncle's house to get the festivities started : ) I had this image colored already, and with Card Patterns sketch #95 this card came together really quickly. I'm sure my aunt and uncle will like it, although all I see when I look at it is the crooked brads that are driving me crazy! Is anyone else like that? Anyways, thanks for taking a look, crooked brads and all : )


Image: Bugaboo digi stamp (btw, she posts freebies here every Friday, I love her images, just wanted to pass that along!)

Snowman Joy


I got another card photographed and edited tonight. I'm almost done with my Christmas cards... OK not really now that I think about it... nothing like procrastinating. Next year I'm starting in July! I used the Sweet Stop sketch 87 for this card.
Image is a digital stamp from Meljen's Designs. "Joy" sentiment is from Taylored Expressions.

Thanks for looking, have a great Christmas Eve tomorrow! I'll be at work and then going to celebrate with my mom's side of the family, I think I'm going to give this card to my grandma.

Christmas Joy


Hello! I haven't posted in so long, but that isn't because I haven't been busy! I have made SO many Christmas cards lately, and still have a few more to finish after I post this really quick! We got a new camera on black Friday and I finally used it to take a couple pics of some cards yesterday. DH had been the only one to play with it before! I used the Sweet Sunday Sketch 97, although I did change it up a bit... The Taylored Expressions stamp "joy" is embossed with SU powder, I've had that stuff forever and have used it on practically every Christmas card I've made, and it still doesn't look like I made a dent in it. The paper is CTMH Aspen- I am so happy to be almost out of that paper. I love it but I swear I've used it the past 3 years and am finally ready to be done with it. I'm trying REALLY hard to use up what I have before buying more pretty papers! Thank you for taking a look : )

Birthday Wishes


This is my grandma's birthday card. Even though it is so simple, I LOVE this card! I used Stamp TV Thursday Sketch. You can't see it in the picture, but the paper has glitter and is SO pretty! Thanks for looking!
