Holiday Decor for Fabulous Friday

This week at the Sisters in Stamping (http://SistersinStamping.blogspot.com) Jacque has picked Holiday Decor to spotlight. Here is my project--


I found some porcelain ornaments on line and took a chance that the heart from the stamp set You Are Loved (Holiday Mini catalog, pg. 40) would fit. Success, it fits perfectly!!  I stamped on the ornament with Versamark and sprinkled gold embossing powder over the dove (on the left) and then used the new pewter embossing powder (Holiday Mini, pg.31) on the remainder of the heart design. I love hearts and I love to give ornaments for Christmas presents, so I'm making a bunch of these this year.

The Sisters in Stamping are taking next week off to celebrate Christmas with their families. Have a great day and see you back here the next week.

Happy Stamping! Karla c(:

Fabulous Friday Gift Card Holder

Well, here we are it's Friday again.... and it's December no less! Where does all of the time go? The Sisters are showcasing Gift Card Holders this week on Sisters in Stamping (http://SistersinStamping.blogspot.com). We have noticed that gift cards get more and more popular every year for Christmas gifts, here is my holder--


The stamp set is called Festive & Fun, it is in the 2011 Holiday Mini Catalog. Only a couple more weeks to purchase products from this catalog. Anyway, the gift card holder is actually a A2 envelope that's folded in 1/2. You cut one side of the flap off and stick the other side down to form a pocket for the gift card. Clever, eh? I can not take credit for this idea...it has been around for quite awhile. Here is a picture of it open--

Once again thank-you for stopping by and checking out what I have going here every Friday. Make sure you stop at the Sisters blog to see the other gift card holders.

Happy Stamping Friday!

Fabulous Friday Thank-you's

It is my week for picking a theme over at the Sisters in Stamping (http://SistersinStamping.blogspot.com) and I chose Christmas Thank-you Cards. I like to have them on hand so that they can get written right away. Here is my card--



The original idea came from my Downline Lori Verdon. She did a technique card using the clear acrylic blocks for the un-mounted stamps at a Meeting a couple of months ago. I took the same layout and used a different stamp set and colors. I used block "D" to print the square in Bashful Blue and then stamped the snowflakes in Marina Mist over the top, a little glitter and some rhinestones and your done! I recently started attending a card ministry at my church and I brought this card for everyone to make last week. It turned out nice and sparkly--but, best of all FAST & EASY! Thank-you Lori for the great idea!!

Thank-you for stopping by!
