Paper Doily Sizzix Die

One of the new Stampin' Up Sizzix dies is the Paper Doily. I really like this die but I will tell you up front that you need some patience when poking out all the cut out pieces. I will make 3 or 4 of the paper doilies and then poke out the pieces while I watch TV. In the end, it is worth the trouble because it is such a beautiful piece. I've really enjoyed finding different ways to use this die. I will add another example in the next few days.

Lovely as a Tree

My Grandson is down for a nap so I thought I would upload some cards I made recently. I think Lovely as a Tree from Stampin' Up is a very versatile stamp set. I used Soft Suede and Whisper White card stock.

A very Happy Valentine's Day

This is the Valentine's card I made for my son. I used the stamp set Extreme Elements for the background. I really like this card.

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Hope you are enjoying your day. My family is getting together tonight for a great dinner. I've recovered from my pneumonia and getting my card making groove back. I actually made Valentine's cards for my whole family. I thought I would post a couple of them for you.

This one is for my daughter.

Punched Art - Snowman

Even though Christmas is over I just had to share with you this cute punched snowman. I saw this on the SU web site and wanted to try it. I just love how it turned out. Punches used were circle, oval, snowflake, heart to heart, word window, round tab and scallop edge border.

Bordeing on Romance

Sorry it's been a while since my last post. I got really sick after Christmas and ended up in the hospital. I picked up a viral infection from somewhere that turned into pneumonia. I still have some pneumonia in my lungs but I am a lot better then I was a week and half ago. So with that said, I am trying to
get back into stamping slowly. This card uses some new products in the new Occasions mini. The stamp set is Bordering on Romance along with the new Textured Impressions Embossing folders, Adorning Accents on page 11 of the Occasions Mini.

Tree Trimmings

My, how time flies. Only 13 more days til Christmas. Our house is decorated, gifts are bought and only a few more Christmas cards to make. Here's an idea for a Xmas card if you still have some to make. Enjoy the holiday season.
