Another Snowman Card….
Here’s a 6″ x 6″ Winter greeting card. The frame around the snowman was created by spraying ink onto stamping cardstock, but with a small square piece of scrap paper set in the middle to ‘mask’ the area for the snowman. Then the snowman was stamped and embossed in the middle. Extra stamping was used […]
Winter Cards
This is Boxing Day in England. I hope it is going well for you.
Here is a matchbook style card. It is created from a piece of 4″ x 12″ double sided patterned cardstock. I’ve folded in the botton edge 1″ and folded the top down to just fit under the bottom flap. The ribbon is […]

What To Do When……
… it’s Decemeber 24th, and someone sent you a card, but you realize you hadn’t sent them one. This is a simple fix.

Here’s a great solution: Card Fronts! This is the easiest way I know of to make a lot of cards quickly. A “card front” is simply the decorative front of the card - it is usually a little smaller than the finished card (folded cardstock). In the cards above, I created 4″ x 6″ card fronts […]
I Love Teal For Winter Cards
This little guy was stamped and then given a good coating of clear embossing powder. It enhances the color and makes him 3d. On the envelope, you’ll see the snowflake and then the little space in the middle for the recipient’s name. This is a 6″ x 6″ card and envelope created from the templates […]
