Five Minute Friday: Another Colorful Christmas card

Hi there!  Happy Friday!  Today is Christmas tree purchasing day for us!  Yay!

Here’s another quick card I made for my stash this year.  I used my favorites circle Nesties and some Colorful Christmas Glittered Chipboard to make this.  Isn’t she adorable?  The strip across the bottom is a Colorful Christmas sticker border and greeting from Holiday Sayings is stamped in Palette Chartreuse. 

I hope you’re all ready for the holidays!  My cards have all been sent out – yay!  Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great weekend!

Be sure to stop back Tuesday for our monthly DT Challenge!

Store update

Hi there!  Just a quick update today.  The new Unity Store Kit is now in stock and is absolutely adorable!  Also, the Stripes Label and Diamonds and Dots embossing folders are back in stock.  I know a lot of you were looking for them so get them now!

I’ll leave you with a cute picture of Mr. Barbo, who got to meet Santa PAWS yesterday.  He was a bit scared (as you can tell from the picture) but was a real sport as I made him wear little reindeer antlers with bells and sit for his Santa photo shoot.

I hope you’re taking some time during this busy season to do little fun things.  The newsletter will be going out tonight and you’re not going to want to miss it (ahem…can you say coupon?)  If you’re not on the newsletter list hurry up and sign up on the homepage!

Five Minute Friday: Colorful Christmas

Hello!  I know I’ve been a little MIA lately and I’m so sorry.  It’s been crazy trying to balance everything now that holiday preparations are upon me.  I did find a few moments to work on Christmas cards, including this super easy card.  I used my favorites oval Nesties and some Colorful Christmas Glittered Chipboard to make this.  I love the colors in the Colorful Christmas line.  So bright and cheery!  The background is the small polka dot A2 embossing folder with a strip of Colorful Christmas sticker border across the middle.  The greeting from Jolly Christmas is stamped in Palette Claret. 

If you ordered during Black Friday and earned a gift certificate you should have received an email with your code by now.  If you didn’t, please email me.

Thanks for stopping in!  Be on the lookout for the newsletter next week.  You’re not going to want to miss it – I promise!

Thanksgiving cards!

Thank you Merry!

Here is a picture of the cards I made for Thanksgiving. I used Tracy's Happy Harvest set, stamped in Palette Cognac and colored with Prismacolor pencils. I added a little Sand Spica to the flame tip. The left panel is a debossed Quickutz A2 Leaves folder. The greeting is stamped in Palette Orangerie and Landscape.

I needed them to be very simple so there's nothing fancy here! Have you realized how much I {heart} Nestabilities?

I hope you have a great Thanksgiving. Be sure to pop in at some point over the weekend. The Black Friday sale will run Friday through Sunday!

Thanks for stopping by (again) today!

I think I’ve lost my brain…

So today I was going to post the aforementioned Thanksgiving cards I was working on last week but in my panic to make and get them out before the actual day, I neglected to actually save one or photograph them! UGH! But, Merry is super wonderful and since she got hers yesterday said she'd take a picture and send it to me so I can share it with you. The rest should be arriving any day now. I'll post it soon - I promise!

I’ve been prepping the store for Black Friday, getting all my shipping supplies ready and doing some tidying. Be sure to check PCP and SCS for ads with the Black Friday code so you can save, save, save!

Hopefully I’ll be back with some crafty goodness later in the week for you but I wanted to pop in and apologize for not having posted my Thanksgiving cards.

Thanks for stopping in!
