Proud Mom



Say hello to our oldest son: Josh Elliott, number 33 for the  Sartell High School Hockey team!  
Woo-who!!!!  Look out - proud mom over here!  

Ornament Gift Box


Using left over pieces of  Candy Cane Christmas DS paper along with a Contempo Christmas ornament covered in the yummy Silver Glass Glitter and a Real Red Glimmer Brad....what could be better to give a Christmas goody in?  This Fancy Favors Bigz Die is definitely one of my favorites.   Have a great day!

Let it Snow!


A quick post to share one of the cute projects we made at CLUB night in late October.  We made 2 Christmas cards and this cute basket using: BIG ON CHRISTMAS stamp set, HOLLY JOLLY DS paper, TOP NOTE die, SNOWFLAKE #2 die, white CHUNKY ESSENTIALS glitter, DECK THE HALLS Big Designer Buttons, and Vanilla and Cherry Cobbler SEAM BINDING. Have a great weekend everyone!

Thanks snow much!


We don't always have to make a master piece...do we?  After one of my girlfriends bought the NORTHERN FROST Big Shot Die.....I knew I should have bought it, too.  So, I did!  The snowflakes on this die are absolutely gorgeous!  I absolutely love this new die!!!!

I needed a thank you card for a girlfriend who recently placed an order with me....and just had to use my new snowflake die.  Did I mention that I also bought the NORTHERN FLURRY embossing folder, too?  Well, I did.  Hence, the cute card that I made in about 5 minutes!   See.... we don't have to make a master piece every time we stamp, especially when we have our Big Shot to help us out!  : )

More Vintage Christmas


Howdy!!! I have been soooo busy this week!  I can't believe tomorrow is already Friday!!!I started Christmas shopping today. I have to start now as I don't like to go shopping the day after Thanksgiving.  I can't stand shopping with a million other people trying to get the best deal.  I am not a good shopper when I feel rushed and overwhelmed.  I need peace and quite.  Sound goofy?  Well then I'm goofy. :) 

I used the awesome Deck the Halls DS paper (again) and threw in a tree from SEASON OF JOY and used my WOODGRAIN background stamp as well.  Of course there is some ribbon, red brads and a yummy CHAMPAGNE glimmer brad used on the flower which came from the BIRDS AND BLOOM DIE.
Have a great evening!  Anyone watching Vampire  Diaries at 7 pm????  I can't wait!

Vintage Scallop Flower


Another Vintage card using the awesome Deck the Halls DS paper.  A must have!  I am sooo loving the Cherry Cobbler paper, ink and  1/2" seam binding!!!  Truly a vintage red color for the holidays.  I sewed on this card....not very well, but hey, it was fun to whip out my little sewing machine and blow off the dust bunnies and run my card through it! :)   Have a great day!
