Christmas Sweaters

For the last five or so years we have been doing an Ugly Sweater contest at our Company Holiday party. So, when I saw this stamp set on the Holiday Catalog, I just had to have it. Plus I thought it would be perfect to color. I don't have the Stampin' Blends markers yet, so I am sure those will color even better. 
I colored the sweater with Stampin Write markers then fussy cut it and adhered on the square white cardstock using a Stampin' Dimensionals.
It's hard to see on the photo but I used the Tombow Liquid Glue on Santa's beard, eyebrows and hat pom-pom, then sprinkled  Dazzling Diamonds all over to add dimension on the card. It turned out really cute.
Well, that's all for today, folks. Thank you for stopping by. The products used to create this card is below.

Graveyard Gate

It has been very hectic since we got back from our trip. Sad as it is for me to admit, it only took a few days back to the office for all the joy of Europe to dissipate. When I look at the mini Eiffel Tower statue on my desk, I have to remind myself that I was just there and that one day soon, I will go back. I loved Paris and one of my favorites was when we went to Shakespeare & Company by the Notre Dame Church. I could easily spend all day upstairs or at the next door Cafe reading. 

Oh well, I want to share this really cute Halloween card created using the Graveyard Gate bundle from the 2017 Holiday catalog. I love the Detailed thinlit gate dies. It was a little challenging to cut out all the pieces with my Big Shot at first. I found the Precision Base Plate (139684) really helpful. Definitely worth the investment. I can't wait to CASE all the adorable projects on Pinterest. 
I achieved the background by using a circle punched mask then sponging around it with Wisteria Wonder, Pumpkin pie and Pear Pizzazz ink pads.

This is all I have for today. Thank you for stopping by. The list of products used to create this card is below.

Lemon Zest

Happy Friday! I so needed this weekend five days ago. I've been feeling kind of in the dumps. I don't know why I allow others to rain on my parade or why I take things too seriously. It's just a job...it's not who I am, right? It's a means to an end - it's what I do to be able to do the things I love to do. These sentences have been my mantra the past year or so every morning before I go to work. It's been a rough and challenging sixteen months and sadly, I don't see even a flicker of light at the end of the tunnel. Oh well. But it IS Friday and I look forward to a weekend of card making therapy. Thank goodness, I have this and my family. I will follow the sentiment on this card and drink some tequila with my limes. Haha.

 Today I want to share a fun fold card that we made in class last week called Joy Fold card created with the adorable Lemon Zest bundle. This set is so versatile and an absolute must have. 

It's hard to see from the photo but I used Wink of Stella Clear to accentuate the edges of the limes.
The sentiment on this one is not Stampin' Up! Sorry, it is from Unity Stamps.
Well, that's all for today, folks. Thank you for stopping by. Happy weekend! The list of products used to create this card is below.
