Just Us Girls #256

Hi everyone!  I am sharing my last card as Guest Designer for Just Us Girls Challenge.  :(  I have had so much fun this month.  Thank you so much for having me.

This week is Wildcard Week.  We challenge you to make anything other than a 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 card.

I used my very neglected Daydream Medallions stamp and matching framelits to create a cute Christmas card.  I love the colors black and gold together.  So striking for Christmas.

Head on over to the Just Us Girls blog to see what the design team has created and join in!

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

Sept. Birthday

Hi friends!  Today's card was inspired by a couple challenges.  The sketch over at CAS(E) this Sketch! and Seize the Birthday challenge blog where the Toppings are Black and white.

I love the Birthday Classics:  Monthly stamp sets by Papertrey Ink.  I have gotten them for every month so far.  I send a lot of birthday cards and thought these sentiments are perfect.  The DSP is Kaleidoscope by SU!  You can't tell in the photo (sorry about the quality, I am trying to figure out my new camera settings) but I sprayed the stamped sentiment piece with Sheer Shimmer Spritz by Imagine Crafts.  It adds a great but subtle shimmer to your paper.  The enamel dots are some I made by melting down Perler beads.

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

Merry Monday #123

Happy Monday friends!

Time for another Merry Monday Challenge.

This week Bonnie challenges us to use a Wreath on our cards.

This Wreath stamp by Avery Elle has got to be my all time favorite wreath stamp.  I just love it!  Stamped and embossed in white on kraft.  The Stitched border dies from PPP finishes off the bottom.  PPP 4mm Raspberry Sequins make the perfect berries. 

 I hope you will join us this week to get a head start on your Christmas cards for 2014.  Make sure you check out the other DT members cards over at the Merry Monday challenge blog.

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

Stamp-a-Faire The Renaissance Wax Seals

Nicole showed us how to make wax seals for envelopes and also as embellishments for our cards.  My seal didn't turn out the greatest.  I used the star stamp from Confetti Garland Borders.  I think I would have been happier if it was a perfect circle but sometimes you just can't control the wax.  :)

Here is a close-up:

Off to work on more challenges.  Thanks for visiting!
