Easy Diagonal cards; Stamp With Me tonight at 7:30 pm!

This week I'm highlighting some of the cards I've recently made on Facebook Live.  With two a week there's a lot! 

Here are the cards for tonight's Facebook Live 'Stamp with Me' here.

I chose the pretty Misty Moonlight & Seaside Spray combination for these cards.  I love the two toned look of these In Colors together.  When you add White for a pop of brightness they really shine!  

Join me here tomorrow night.  Prep the pieces, gather some supplies and we'll stamp together! 

I used the Queen Anne's Lace stamp set seen here in Misty Moonlight, White & Seaside Spray.

• Everyday Details Fun Fold card

  January 2, 2024

  ---

  I hope you enjoyed your New Year's weekend. We had a nice 3 day weekend with no plans at all. My husband was in the mood to clean and organize so we did lots of cleaning, boxing up donated items and taking down outside Christmas lights.

  Plus we made some fabulous meals, put together a puzzle and watched some of our favorite shows. I love a relaxing yet productive weekend! 

  ~~~

  This is one of the swap cards I made last month.  I joined 6 swaps and had to make around 18-22 of each. 

  Save

  It features the new Everyday Details bundle and the new Rock & Roll designer paper. Both are new products in our upcoming 2024 Spring catalog – it goes live on Thursday, January 4th!   

  I stamped the nest image on one of the die-cuts in the bundle and the greeting on another.

  Other details:

  • White card base is 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 3" & 7 1/4"
  • Rock & Roll DSP is 2 3/4" X 5 1/4"
  • Coastal Cabana is 1" X 5 1/4"; textured with the Basics 3D emboss folder

  I thought I'd share the event we held on December 16th. My local friends and I held a big fundraising Holiday Bazaar to benefit a few local non-profit organizations.

  Save

  It was held at our church and as you can see it was jam packed with fabulous handmade crafts & goodies. We offered tons of crafts, gifts, handmade cards, baked & home-canned goods, cookie trays & more.  Plus we had a silent auction, vendors and lunch! 

  It was a great success as we raised over $3200 for our charities! It was a fun-filled day and the time & effort was well worth it to support our local non-profits.
