Christmas X3


This is the first of 3 Christmas cards I made today. On this card I used all Stampin Up products but they aren't all Christmas items.  The DSP is from Mocha Morning, the other card stocks are Cherry Cobbler and Very Vanilla. I used three different stamps sets; French Filigree, Evergreen and Come to Bethlehem.


This card is done using Prismacolor colored pencils with the sled from Stampin Up's Winter Memories stamp set. I kept this card simple and let the stamp be the star.


This card I made using a tutorial from Lee Conrey over at her blog stampingleeyours, I copied it pretty closely.  This card was very simple to make and has such a large impact I think. Thanks Lee for the wonderful inspiration.

Purple Flower


My niece had a birthday recently and I did this emboss resist technique for her card. I used all Stampin Up products on this card; papers were Perfect Plum, Basic Gray and Whisper White. I used En Francais for the background of the flower which is from a retired set Bloomin' Beautiful. Thanks for looking.

Here's a card I made for a coworker for his birthday.  The stamp is very intricate and I knew I wouldn't be able to use Copic markers so I colored it with colored pencils. It's my first attempt using colored pencils but I think it turned out okay and I will certainly be using them more often. Thanks for looking.
