The font on this Merry Christmas stamp sold me on it. Just a little bit of the fun, curviness I love.

This Merry Christmas stamp is a true classic with a bit of that Victorian feel to it. I don’t often keep retired stamps but I will keep this one! It’s on sale now too; while supplies last. Click here to see it.

I paired it with the Traditions of Christmas designer paper here. It’s discounted and on the Last Chance list here. However it’s currently out of stock but should be back next week.
A bit of holly and berries with some ribbon and you’re done! As you can see I added the same DSP to my envelope flap. Now that makes a card extra special!

This next one features the Need for Tweed designer series paper. See that here. Fun prints with lots of texture. It’s also on sale right now and available while supplies last.

I stamped the inside with greetings from the Traditional Labels stamp set.

Aren’t they a beautiful set of cards! I will be making more of these and it’s a bonus that it uses up a nice piece of designer paper. No hoarding it!

Here’s the free project sheet for you. Click here to download or print it.

Another Positive thoughts card; in a unique color combination

January 14, 2020

I have no idea where I came up with this color combination. I started out with the Petal Pink because I wanted to use the gorgeous champagne edged ribbon. Maybe I was avoiding green; but the Basic Gray looks beautiful with the Petal Pink!

The Positive Thoughts stamp set is so easy to play with; the images are soft yet detailed which is totally my style. That embossing folder is called 'Coastal Weave'. It's a free gift to everyone who places an online order over $65 this month (detailed below).

AND, they are coming out with dies to coordinate with this stamp set in February! I'm so excited about them. It includes 11 dies for each of the images in the set plus more! A stitched rectangle, a detailed edgelit and more botanical images. You'll love them! They will be for purchase; they're not part of Sale-a-Bration.

Besides the pretty images the greetings put me over the edge to buy it. I know I'll use them a lot.

Stitched So Sweetly & Positive Thoughts

January 13, 2020

Yesterday I shared one version of this card and here is the other. I had extra background pieces stamped so I tried something else.

I used the same dies; but added the So Sentimental stamp set for the greeting above.

And here is the first version: Which do you prefer? This (above) or that (below)?

Here is the new So Sentimental bundle; my favorite bundle in the entire new catalog! See them here.

Sending Positive Thoughts; love this new stamp set!

January 10, 2020

This Positive Thoughts stamp set seems to be a 'sleeper' to some people but it caught my eye right away! Everyone asked where the stamp set was when they saw my cards.

I knew I could make pretty cards with the images; the leaves, flower and feather are perfect with lots of fine details. But the greetings; they are some I will definitely get a lot of use of.

This soft, botanical card is one I made for an online swap I participated in. I used Mint Macaron, Pretty Peacock and of course the pretty Petal Pink. The new champagne rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon was color inspiration.

I also used the new Stitched So Sweetly dies; my top pick in the entire new catalog! See them here.

I'll share a second version of this card with you tomorrow.
