Gnome for The Holiday Card

This cute Gnome for The Holidays stamp set #153322 is only $19- and will give you lots of ideas for Holiday cards.  They are cute and versatile.  You can change the girl to a witch for Halloween, just cut out a witch’s hat and color her appropriately.  I love this wizard one. He is perfect for granting birthday wishes and the third gnome can have a spider hanging from his hat or a bat. Just punch the shape and cover the holly.  He can carry a pumpkin instead of a Christmas ornament. Just think outside the box.
My card today has lots of sparkle.  The Balmy Blue Glimmer paper is so pretty and adds to the frosty look on my card. I used more of the Feels Like Frost Designer paper, that picks up more of that frosty blue color.  Don’t forget to add Wink of Stella to give the gnome even more sparkle.

Arrange a Wreath Birthday Card

I created a Birthday card for those winter birthdays, using the Arrange a Wreath bundle and the Gnome for the Holidays sets.
One of the Gnomes in the set looks like a Wizard, so I used him to put on my wreath.  He looks adorable.  
There is lots of sparkle on the card.  I used the Balmy Blue glitter paper and silver foil to add sparkle.  I also added the blue adhesive backed gems in the center of the flowers. 
I colored the metallic mesh ribbon with a sponge and Balmy Blue ink. It adds shimmer with a hint of color.  
For the details and supplies read on.

Give Thanks Arrange a Wreath

I have a cute Fall wreath for you today using the Arrange a Wreath bundle in our Annual catalog.  I cased the card straight from our catalog.  Don’t forget all the beautiful samples that are in our catalogs, when you need an idea.  I have also made a Christmas version I will share with you,  when it gets closer to the Season.
I love how easy it is to die cut the leaves and berries used for this wreath.  
I find myself saying thanks every day for our health and for the health of my family and friends.  The card is appropriate for Thanksgiving or just to say thanks.

Tasteful Touches Sympathy Card

This week I had to make a sympathy card for a dear friend for the loss of his mother.  I saw a similar design on the web and changed it up a bit to make it more StampFUNatics!. 
I am using the new Tasteful Touches and the Timeless Tulip stamps.  I also pulled a piece of the new In good Taste Designer paper.  I am loving all the textures in this pack.  Since this was more for a man, I thought this combination worked well. You can read more to get the supply list and instructions .
