I made this card for my mother-in-law's birthday. I love these color combinations. The butterfly paper came from K & company designer stack and the flower was made using Stampin up's die cut folder. This was my first time using the die cut and I am very impressed with how it came out. I like that it cuts and embosses in one complete step. I just sanded it and colored the edge.

More Christmas cards


This is another favorite from Local King Rubber stamps. It's great for the outdoor sports enthusiasts I know.

This card was fun to make, although I had no template to cut it out with. I got the glitter idea from another blog and I love the effect. The snowman is a sticker I got from the dollar store and the ribbon came from Michael's.

This card is stamped with one of my faves from Local King Rubber stamps. I love this stamp because I have a lot of hockey fans in my family. The snowflake paper was a freebie from one of the magazines that I get and I used Crayola markers to colour the scene. I also like this card because it could be used for any winter occasion.

Wow, I can't believe how time flies...



Work has kept me pretty busy lately and the excitement of the Olympics has rubbed off a little. Yay Canada! I have been working on a few projects, but none of them are finished. I do have more Christmas cards I would like to show. This stamp is from Pink Cat Studio and coloured with watercoloured pencils.

A merry Magnolia Christmas


Here is one of my favorite Christmas card designs this year. I used a Magnolia stamp for the girl and the message is a just-rite stamp from their Christmas collection. I cut the circles with Nestabilities dies.

Baby gift


Hello,

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and I wish everyone a happy 2010. I know I should probably be showing off my Christmas cards, but I have been meaning to post a baby boy card and gift I made for a co-worker and friend. We knew the sex ahead of time, which made things a little easier. The photo above was taken by Joanna Johnstone.
