Happy Halloween!

Hello and Happy Halloween! We are supposed to have a very stormy, wet holiday here, but I have plenty of food and snacks ready for an indoor party if need be.
I made this card with stamps from The Stamps Of Life.
I used the tickets2stamp set with matching dies and the solids4Halloween set. I added some Scor-Tape to the bottom and some glitter.

I hope you have a wonderful day and evening!

Heartfelt Creations: Sweet Juliet Collection Debut

Hi, there!  Today I would like to share a mini album I made using brand new stamps, dies and papers from the Heartfelt Creations Sweet Juliet collection.  I love all of the elements in the Antiquity paper collection. They were so perfect for a heritage album.  I also love the beautiful flower die that is made so that you can use a brad to hold the flower together in the middle! Genius and so easy to make and layer.

I used an old photo cover from one of my antiquing trips to create this fold out.  I love the staining on it and one of the 3x4 journal cards from the Antiquity paper collection fits perfectly inside.  You could also add a photo!

And this one shows the tail end of the train that is "on the right track"! You can use the shapes2stamp set to fill in the box cars and the wheels of the train. LOVE it!

Cards for a great cause!

Hello! Today I pulled out some of my old Unity stamps to create this fun card.  I made it for one of the Hope You Can Cling To challenges on Splitcoast Stampers.  In case you don't know what HYCCT is all about, it is a card drive for the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.  The cards are donated to help lift the spirits of women fighting breast cancer.  They can use them to send to loved ones, or their friends and family can use them to send to the patients.  What a cool cause, right?

I was inspired by the following photo from Pinterest for this challenge:

I paper pieced the couch, pillows and frame using Sugar Chic paper from heidi swapp.  Added some velvet ribbon for the "carpet" and some sequins to glitz up this very girly card. :)

Thanks so much for visiting today!

Heartfelt Creations: Oh, Christmas Trees!

I just love the Christmas Tree dies in Heartfelt Creations Banners and Trees die set! My first card has a more shabby chic feel, while the second has a more contemporary look. I am getting so excited for the holidays. I love all the preparation that goes into decorating, cards, gift giving and more!
