Year-End Closeout!

If you’ve been eyeing any of the beautiful products in the Holiday Catalog, don’t let them get away!

Most of the items are retiring and are only available WHILE SUPPLIES LAST. That means, when they’re gone, they’re gone!

My favorite deal is the Christmas Traditions punch box, which is 40% off! It’s packaged in a beautiful tin, and includes a stamp set, coordinating punch, acrylic block, and two ink spots. It’s available right now for only $27!!

It would make a great gift for a fellow crafter or a new stamper, or even a treat for yourself!

There are also items that are not retiring, but are on sale, so be sure to check the list closely. You can find it here.

Grab your favorites while you can!

Lift Me Up Anniversary Card

A very good friend asked me to make a card he could give his wife for their Anniversary. LaAnna is a stamper, so I think he might have been afraid to give her a “store bought” card.

First I chose the sentiment, Marriage is a Journey. The inside says Good Thing You Get to Bring Your Best Friend Along. I wanted something that would depict a journey, and decided on the hot air balloons. I wanted to add a little something special, so I wove satin ribbon through some of the spaces in the balloon die cut.

Stamps: Lift Me Up, Flourishing Phrases

Cardstock: Thick Whisper White, Bermuda Bay, Whisper White

Ink: Pool Party, Bermuda Bay

Dies: Up and Away Thinlits Dies

Other: 1/4” Pool Party Satin Ribbon (vintage), Bermuda Bay sequins (vintage)

Thanks for stopping by! If you need any stamping supplies, you can find them at the link below.

Special Celebrations Wedding Shower

I recently attended a wedding shower for a sweet young couple from my church. I wanted to make them a special handmade card, but as usual, I was looking for an idea at the last minute! When I looked at the bag I’d purchased for the gift, I was inspired to make a card to match.

Here’s a close up of the card.

Stamps: Special Celebrations

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black

Cardstock: Very Vanilla Note Card and Envelope, Very Vanilla, Basic Black, Gold Foil

Punch: 3/4” Circle

Other: Subtle Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder

I was really pleased with the result. What do you think?
