How about a super short post today! lol I started this and thought, I better make a quick video to show how it works! So here’s a little intro video to how this snowglobe tag is going to go together and think about how many variations we can make! The snowmen, the cabin in the woods, Santa and Sleigh scenes… oh my! Check it out!
Coming Soon!

I’ll be back soon with lots more!
Hi everyone! I had fun last week playing with some new dies. I thought, this house needs smoke! So it turned into a tall Christmas card!
O Holy Night, Starry Burst and Pine Tree Hill dies came out last year in the Christmas releases. I did use a little bit of sparkle pen in the burst die cut. The Cottage Picket Fence is from this year.
The house and parts are inked with Distress Oxide inks. I die cut the house again in white and cut out the door and window frames.
I found the stamped sentiment in an old Memory Box set Wintertime Fairies. Linked below too.
This house makes me smile… I grew up in a red brick house. ❤
Thank you for stopping by today! Talk to you again soon!

Welcome to the party! I have two cards to share with you today. I have some new Simon Says Stamp Christmas dies and a few older that I decided to use for this post. yay!
As I’m typing this, it’s rainy and cold! Feels a bit like Winter! April Fools! haha
I made this card with the Winter Foliage Frame die cut in green and parts in red and inlaid. The Winter Wishes die cut in red and white. Circle Basics die set for the brown center circle. The May Christmas sentiment is from the Inside Christmas Greetings stamp set.
I cut a green panel ⅛ inch smaller than the A2 white cardbase. I adhered the frame with glue in the center, then mounting tape to adhere the Winter Wishes circle. A little white pen for the berries.
I like it! Festive and bright!
More Christmas cheer on this card! I used the Holly and Berries Tag die, cut in greens and red but I tried to put a big eyelet in the hole and messed it up so now it’s not a tag! I trimmed that part off. I didn’t want to start over! 😀
I die cut three RyLynn Snowflakes in my A2 kraft card panel, then die cut three white ones and inlaid them in the kraft panel, taping them ‘in’ on the back.
I stamped the sentiment from the Fa La La stamp set in the bottom corner.
Die cut the Fa La La die in red and white cardstock and adhere together with Tombow Mono Multi liquid glue.
That’s it! It was fun to get back into some Christmas colors and now I have two cards ready to send! Win!

Hi everyone! I hope you’re starting to receive some handmade cards! I hope to get mine mailed out this weekend!
Today’s post is about this new die from Simon Says Stamp, Shimmer Oval. This was so easy to make!
I die cut in 110# Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock. I do shim but I use copy paper, not the metal shim. I just add a folded piece of copy paper on top of my top cutting plate and cut with the die blades up. This one I used two folded pieces of copy paper, so 4 layers.
Then the oval white panel and the gold glitter panel I die cut with Memory Box Rectangle Basics dies.
I heat embossed the sentiment from SSS Inside Christmas Greetings clear stamp set on a piece of vellum with Ranger super fine detail gold embossing powder.
I die cut two of the mistletoe dies from the SSS Christmas Foliage die from Diecember Release also. I added Ranger Gold glitter stickles to the berries. I debated adding them but I gave myself a talking to. I’m always wanting to leave things plain, so I had to ask myself why did I buy gold glitter stickles then?! So I put them on the berries. ha!
I glued the gold glitter cardstock panel to the white A2 cardbase first. Then I adhered the white oval panel with strips of foam mounting tape. The white floral oval is glued flat on the inside of the popped up oval panel.
I prepared the vellum panel by creasing the folds on each end before I stuck the white panel down, making it easier to adhere after I placed the inside floral oval.
Then I just glued the ends of the mistletoe cuts.
I still have to stamp something on the inside. In fact most of my cards that I need to get mailed still need stamped on the inside. I am always sorry I don’t do that when I make the card. moan. Oh well, I’ll set up the platforms and get them stamped! hehe
Thanks for stopping by! Happy stamping, shopping, whatever phase you’re in! Relaxing would be nice! haha

Hi everyone! and on the inside it says “Celebrate the Season” from the same stamp set by poppystamps, Art Deco Celebrate Christmas. I hope you’ve been doing just that!
We have been here! Our family is having so much fun this Christmas. It was so nice last week I took grandkids shopping every afternoon except for one and that one I went with one of our daughters. Then Monday we braved the bitter wind and cold temps to drive 25 miles to Hobby Lobby for the last 4. We have a wonderful lot of grands! 😀
Now, I’m working on my spreadsheet of who gets what for presents and stocking stuffers. :O lol
I wanted to show you this card I made for the stamp club gals I meet with once a month here.
I used the Memory Box Hanging Lantern die from last year… the new Holly Double Arch die from this year and the smallest snowflake from the poppystamps 2016 Ava Snowflakes set.
Some Distress Oxide inking on the circle…three bluish ones… spatter with white acrylic paint of white liquid watercolor.
Here’s 3 pictures of how I did the Holly Double Arches…
I die cut in red and green…
Then I clipped off the green berries…
I glued the green cut on top of the red cut being sure to line everything up…
and there you have it! So easy when you’re making multiples!
I used mounting tape under the circle and the top and bottom of the lantern but everything else is glued flat.
So happy to share a card with you again… I’m sure I’ll be back with more… so much I still want to do! eek! Not sure it’s humanly possible! ha!
Thank you for stopping by!
