Happy Birthday to my baby girl!

20 years ago we welcomed Kathryn Elizabeth Wheeler to our family! She was the Dorchester New Year's baby! We are so proud of the young woman she has become and wish her all the best as she returns to school!

This is the card I made for her...love it! The paper is from the new pack available free during Salebration...you will love it! I was totally inspired by this card from Sandy! This paper coordinates so nicely with the 2011-2013 In colors. It has a lovely vintage tinge to it and I know you will be seeing tons of cards made with this paper!

Take a look at the edges of the paper...I used both the new edgelets as well as the new embossing folders that are available in the new mine which launches on Jan 4th!

Enjoy your day...we are in the middle of a blizzard so won't be venturing too far from home today!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Stamping Friends....hope all your dreams and wishes come true in 2012. My friend Lisa posted a card first thing this morning so she is my inspiration for kick starting my stamping year!

This is a money holder. I made a bunch of these for Christmas and this one is for a friend to load up with cash for a wedding she is attending. There are so many new things in the Occasions Mini that launches this week, including the dies that will scallop the bottom of the card! This adds such a lovely finish to any card. Never forget to decorate your envelop and here you can see I stamped it then added some bling.

Twas the week before Christmas...

How is your shopping and preparations for Christmas going? For me, I need to hit the mall one more time, and get wrapping! This card was on we made at Sandy's. Love the silver glimmer paper on the stockings! The snowflakes are from the triple layer punch. The snowflakes were embossed into the background and really made a lovely design.

No promises, but I do hope to be back with some more creations before the end of the week! Merry Christmas...may all your dreams come true!

Sparkly Snowman

All is ready for the Stampastack at my friend Sandy's house. We are making 10 cards and a Lolly to put on a parcel then hang on the tree. I made up some yummy cookies and used the new cookie press with the snowflake to add the design.

The snowman and the main image panel are stamped on naturals white. The card stock is rose red and the polka dot dsp is from the pattern pack. The silver glimmer paper adds just the right amount of bling for Christmas.

We have a nice number attending, and I had so much fun putting the cards together. See you in the morning ladies...I can't wait!

Snow Much Fun....

What a lovely weekend here in Southwestern Ontario. It sure was a weekend of contrasts, at the same time, my hubby was washing vehicles, a neighbour was mowing lawn and the neighbour across the street was hanging Christmas Lights. A fantastic fall day to get done whatever you needed to get done!

Love this chubby little snowman from Snow Much Fun. We will be making him at Sandy's house next Saturday.

He is stamped on whisper white, coloured with some markers, add a couple of lines of Tombo glue and throw on some of the new mica flakes. The snowballs are punched out of the silver glimmer paper!

Enjoy what is left of the weekend...I am hoping my Hubby soon falls asleep so I can switch from Nascar to a movie!!!! I just can't grasp the fun of watching cars driving in a circle!
