Happy New Year!

I wish for you a very happy, healthy and wonderful 2016! 

I am grateful for each visit to my blog and I hope that some of you "out there" are inspired by what I do! 

Even though I ring in the New Year EARLY and casually, I made this card pretty fancy with the silver embossing, multiple layers and shiny embellishments!

Please come back again soon. Consider "following" me so you won't miss a single post in the New Year. Thank you for your business--it keeps me in cards. :-)

One More Day!!

 It's really never too early to start making holiday cards. This time of year, everyone is going back to school, and sometimes that means a little more time for making things while those kiddos are gone all day.

Stampin' Up! is debuting their Holiday Catalog on September 1st, which is right around the corner--I mean TOMORROW!! It's so exciting! I don't make a lot of Halloween cards, but with the Happy Scenes stamp set (sentiment) and the Hearth and Home Framelits (Basic Black Window Frame), it's easy to have a little fun at this time of year. 

 

 I CASEd this card from Nicole Tugrul. I didn't have the spider web stamp (from new set Witches' Night) so I just drew my own spider web with my Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker. I used a Window Sheet to make a shaker window and put some In Color and retired silver sequins (from last year's Holiday Catalog) that will shake and move around inside my window. The black stars are from the Confetti Stars Border Punch and the background is embossed using the Woodgrain Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  My little spider is from the Cheer All Year stamp set, also available tomorrow in the new Holiday Catalog. (If you need a copy and don't already have a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, please email me and I will send you a free Holiday Catalog)
