We made this adorable cards at my November card clubs.  They could choose between Christmas & birthday. I love it when products are this versatile!

I'll start with the Christmas version.  The colors are Poppy Parade, White & Shaded Spruce. Isn't the Santa hat adorable?!

This fun fold might look difficult but if you watch the video here you'll find it's quite easy.  It involves a bit of scoring and trimming. The diagonal square layer is separate from the card base.  The designer paper is the Merry, Bold & Bright seen here.  I'm featuring it in one of my pre-cut card kits to go this month; click here to see it. 

The inside layer is textured with the Christmas Tidings embossing folder seen here.  It's retiring and discounted.

The inside greeting is from the Beary Cute stamp set. I sure love this fold!

Here is the birthday version using the same Merry, Bold & Bright designer paper seen here.  It's so versatile!

• Snail Mail & Pretty Perennials; a cute combo with video!

  January 18, 2021

  Here are the cards I created for Monday night's FB Live video.  It was 'Stamp with Me' night which occurs on the 2nd & 4th Monday nights.  Join me here!

  When I first saw the Snail Mail designer paper I fell in love!  I had absolutely no idea it would be this cute.  Have you found that to be true?  You see things in a catalog and think they're okay or kind of nice. But then in real life you are amazed?!  This is one of those papers!

  This was inspired by a similar card I received in a swap from my friend Dawn Olchefske.  

  Here they are separately:

• Beautiful Vine Design with Oh So Ombre with video!

  January 14, 2021

  ---

  What do you think of the Oh So Ombre designer paper?  Have you seen it yet?  If not look here.  

  Save

  It's a 6 X 6" pack of 48 sheets of Designer Series Paper.  There are 2 designs and 4 colors in this pretty pack and it's FREE with any $50 order during  Sale-a-Bration! 

  I created this card with it for a Flowerbug's swap a few weeks ago. The first card features the Bermuda Bay color in the pack.   

  Save

  Of course I chose to use all new products!  The pretty stitched outline is from the Stitched with Whimsy dies seen here.  I love that they don't actually cut; they just stitch a pretty outline. You can really notice the Ombre since I switched the die when I inserted it back in the window. Watch how in the video. 

  The intricate die is from the Flowering Vines die.  It's part of the bundle with the Vine Design stamp set which is where the greeting images are from.  See them here.

  Here I used the BlackBerry Bliss piece of DSP.  Which do you prefer?  

  I hope you watch the quick video I made featuring these new products.
