Sneak a Peak of Christmas!!

Good morning everyone!

Well I have another post for your today! Two in one day! I couldn't help myself though. I received my holiday order from Stampin' Up a couple of days ago and I have been dying to play with my stuff. Yes I know it's August but Christmas is right around the corner and it's time to start preparing because we know how we all like to wait to the last minute to make 50 cards for friends and family (wink, wink). Well I work graveyard and when I got home this morning I couldn't sleep because I was really really wanting to check out my new stuff and didn't want to wait two more days. So I ordered the floral framelits awhile ago. I knew as soon as I saw them I wanted to use them to make a shape card. Well I decided to pair of my wreath from the Wondrous Wreath photopolymer stamp set with my framelits. I also ordered the Wonderful Wreath framelits which pairs up with the Wreath stamp set. So here is my card….what do you think?



I embossed the second flower with gold and I also embossed the ribbon which there is a ribbon stamp and a ribbon framelit to cut it out. The word Joy comes from the framelit. I embossed Joy in clear embossing powder. It's hard to see in the picture but the clear embossing makes Joy a little bit shiny and stand. The wreath is a 3 step process but it's not hard. I really am pretty happy with this card and I can see myself using the floral framelits for other events and not just Christmas. Well I hope you enjoyed this sneak peak into Christmas. Now remember the holida catalog is coming out August 28 and you can start ordering products on the 28th also. If you would like a catalog please let me know and I would be glad to mail one out to you. Thanks for stopping by! 

Happy Crafting,

Blooming Friends

Hey everyone!

So I have another card to share with you today. I recently got the blended bloom stamp and I love it. It is such a nice size flower and when paired with Stampin' Up's blendabilities it's just lovely. Now I will admit I am not a huge fan of coloring but after playing around with the blend abilities I am in love! Those markers are pretty amazing. OK anyways… I could babble on forever about all of the products I am in love with but how about we get to that card!!!?

So there you have it. My little card I wanted to share with you guys. This is one of four cards I did at my workshop I hosted the other night. My theme was birthday cards but I wanted to use sentiments that were versatile in case they wanted to use the card for something other than a birthday. I thought the stamp from Let your hair down was a good pick. Well I hope you enjoyed my card today!

Some Banner Love


Hey Crafting Friends,

So I recently moved all of my crafting stuff from downstairs to my upstairs loft….way more room!! Well I was cleaning and organizing my crafty domain which is a never ending job…when inspiration hit me! I was looking around and decided the space needed a banner. So after playing with my big shot for awhile and putting some paper together I had a cute little banner to hang on my wall! I am super happy with it and now I have to make a second one for my daughter because she was a little envious. Well I hope you enjoyed my post!

Quick and Easy Mini Cards

Hey everyone. Whenever I have to mail something out to a friend, I always like to send a little note in there for them. I like to make 3x3 cards since I don't think a full card is really needed. It's something quick and easy yet still personal. I was team mom for my sons baseball team this past season so I needed to mail out some picture cd's. I made these little cards for my packages. Super cute, still boyish and fast to put together! 

 
Card Recipe:
2" inch circle punch
Chevron Emboss Folder
Label Love Stamp Set
Artisan Label Punch

Happy Crafting everyone! ~ Priscilla

3 x 3 Thank You Cards



So I have had a couple of orders and I thought a nice way to add a personal touch instead of just giving them a bag with their stuff would be to add a thank you card. I didn't want to do a full card because I thought that would be a bit much. So I decided to go with. 3x3 mini card. I am really pleased with how they turned out and they only took about 15 minutes to make!
