Santa's Gifts Christmas card

 
I love a cute reindeer with a scarf! I'm still doing Christmas in July. I believe this is Card 3.

 
This card features the Santa's Gifts stamp set in the new catalog. I stamped it in Early Espresso ink and used a Real Red marker to color the nose, scarf and hooves. I love the little punched tree in Garden Green on the right side of the hand-cut banner. It adds that little touch. And I used retired designer paper (because I have lots of it and because my ladies don't mind).
 
 
Santa's Gifts Photopolymer Stamp Set Item 138808

Send your merry merry wishes for Christmas and the new year with a whimsical Santa, reindeer, and Christmas tree. This is a Two-Step Stampin' set, which gives you so many creative options--combine individual stamps to build the final image you want in the colors you want.

Bird punch Christmas card


Still going with the Christmas in July theme, here's a quick and easy card that uses the Bird Builder Punch and a holiday greeting from a retired stamp set, and with retired Cherry Cobbler ribbon. The card stock is Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive, with Cherry Cobbler ink.


The Bird Builder Punch gives you the bird, wing (also used as a candle flame) and a branch with leaves. I CASE'd this card and had the person's name and blog on my phone, but shattered that this past weekend and lost the photo when my hubby got my new phone up and going.

Lots of Joy Christmas card

 
I'm still going with Christmas in July with a new clear stamp set called Lots of Joy.

 
This is a CASE'd card that uses a current embossing folder (Modern Mosaic) and retired designer paper. The only ink color used is a Real Red ink pad. The top layer is popped up with dimensionals and the right corners punched with the corner rounder.
 
I hope you're enjoying a fabulous day!

Dash away, dash away...

 
At my 20-card class last weekend, half of the 10 designs were Christmas. I love starting Christmas in July!

 
I used the Holiday Home stamp set (now retired) for this card, starting with a Whisper White card. I sponged the rectangle (and circle) with Night of Navy, and used the same color for the sentiment. The sleigh and reindeer silhouette is stamped in black ink. I CASE'd this card from http://blog.thecraftyowl.co.uk/.

Celebrate Today bundle idea

 
How is this for a one-of-a-kind card? I used it for an awesome friend who earned her associate degree recently. She is a mom of two, a military wife, and is amazing!

 
My downline, Michelle, brought this as a make and take to my Demo Day a couple of weeks ago. I'll be honest - there are a lot of parts and it took quite a bit of time to put together, but I love how it turned out. It uses the Celebrate Today Photopolymer Bundle.

Summer Silhouettes with Island Indigo

 
I am so totally loving this Island Indigo, Basic Black and Crumb Cake color combination.

 
I CASE'd this card from Deena Boos at http://myhomegrownart.com, changing up the colors and embossing folder (I used Woodgrain). I love the tag top punches - this one is ornate.

Dino-rrific stamp set

 
I think this stamp set is one of the best in the new catalog. It's called No Bones About It and has mass appeal. I mean, at a gathering for demos, I'd say the majority of us thought it was super cute!

 
My friend and downline, Barb, brought this as a make & take. I switched up the type of leaves I used, but the design is the same. We used fringe scissors for the "grass." I love the earthy colors.
 
No Bones About It Photopolymer Stamp Set  Item 138756
Price: $26.00

I think I'm going to save this card for my niece's birthday this fall. She loves dinosaurs!

It's been a busy summer, which is why you haven't heard much from me. I had a garage sale last weekend, and have been traveling to and from a summer college class four days a week with my boy so he gets his 50 hours driving with a licensed driver for his driver's license.

The booth I have in an antique mall will be closed at the end of this month, so I'm going to have another garage sale at the end of the month to purge what's left. Not to mention, blackberries are coming in and it'll be time to crank out a few batches of jam!

I hope you're enjoying some great weather with friends and family.

Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cupcakes

 
My friend and downline, Teresa, created this adorable cupcake card for everyone to make at the Demo Day I hosted Sunday. This is the Ronald McDonald House Charities stamp set called Sprinkles of Life.

 
Teresa used the new In Colors for her make & take. She had the new green lace ribbon, but I'd put the layers together before adding the ribbon so you'll have to pretend. The card is Watermelon Wonder. I like how the colors of sprinkles coordinate perfectly with the designer paper. The apple from the Tree Builder Punch, which is the one that works well with this stamp set, makes a great cherry for the cupcake! We used a green marker to ink up the stem.
