No more Christmas cards! :)

Well even as much as I love Christmas and the colors of Christmas and making Christmas cards... I am glad to do something else!

This is a really quick and simple card, but I love it. This uses brayering, in which I'm just not very good at "yet".

Here is what I used: Cardstock: Basic Black, Pretty In Pink, Glossy White; Ink: StazOn Black, Pretty in Pink; Brayering, Winter White Grosgrain Ribbon, Snail Adhesive.

Come back soon!

Merry Christmas!!!

Hello to all! I hope and pray that today is happy and blessed for you all! What a wonderful day to spend with family... and celebrate our Savior! I am constantly amazed that a baby came to earth, and grew, and was a sacrifice for just me. (you too) Emmanuel, His name is called Emmanuel! God with us, abide with us!


I will be posting the January kit this week. I'm a bit behind, but wow, has it been a busy month. So be watching!


And for those who attend my local classes... we will have the schedule up soon! The new catty is coming soon! YEAH!!!


Well, back to my family for some fun and food and grand old time!!! Merry Christmas!

I love making Christmas cards...

and yes I admit some of the colors and papers are retired, and some of the stamps are retired, but I just love them and will use them while I can! Especially Frosty... I have always adored this snowman stamp! It's just great to use for anything.

Well, I just had to share what fun I've had the past few days completing orders for cards, now maybe I can finish my own! Maybe I should make them all Happy New Year, just in case! :)
Thanks for looking!

Paper's been a flyin'!

Well at least this week it has been. My craft room looks like a hurricate hit a paper factory! I've had several orders for my cards as gifts and for Christmas, and I've been busy! Just thought I'd share. These are just some that will be gifted. Maybe tomorrow I can start sharing Christmas ones IF I can get things organized. I love this set "A Rose Is A Rose", it makes such lovely cards. If you would like to know details of this card, please email me: creatingsensations@bellsouth.net Thanks!

A few more layouts for you...

These are both LO's of my little bit... but it was last Halloween! She's such a cutie isn't she? This is a Pebbles Inc. kit mixed with my Stampin' UP! Cardstock. I just love how Stampin' UP! has colors that will match any type patterned paper out there! I never have to worry about not having a color! I also used our soft set eyelets.... so much better than any others! Thanks for looking!
