AESTAMPS A LATTE

 Happy Holiday's to my crafty friends!  I hope you had a wonderful Christmas celebration and are recovering from all the hustle and bustle of it all. :) I had a few more Christmas creations to share with you that I did not have time to post. However, I am sharing one of the treat boxes I made with you today.  I put chocolates and cash in these.  I used the Snowy Scenes Suite and made several versions using the penguin, snowman and house.  So fun. These boxes are so nice and sturdy and they are very easy to decorate and assemble.  You can secure the little tab (red flap on the right side) to the box it self, but I found that placing it in between the layered tag that the box closes easily and can be used over and over again. :) I love the Snowy Wonder Bundle and coordinating Snowy Scenes DSP.  These products are on the Last Chance List so don't delay if you are thinking about it.  Plus, if you buy the Snowy Wonder Bundle through me and by January 3...

 Hello crafty friends! We are finally get some snow here in Minnesota and it we will definitely be having a white Christmas here. You?  In honor of our snowstorm, I am sharing a creation made with the Wintery Tree Tops Bundle along with the Falling Snow background stamp set. This is a very quick and easy card to create thanks to the coordinating Nests of Winter 12" x 12" DSP in which you can simply die cut the bird using the dies in the set. :) I stamped the Falling Snow background stamp set using Balmy Blue ink onto a 3" x 5 1/8" piece of Basic White cardstock and adhered it to a 51/4" x 4" Cherry Cobbler cardstock layer along with a 7/8" x 5 1/8" piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock that was embossed with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. The bird was added to a Pecan Pie cardstock branch and Mossy Meadow cardstock die cut leaves. The sentiment and die cut frame is from the Peaceful Season Bundle along with some Cherry Cobbler & Gold 1/4"...

 Hello crafty friends! Today I have a sneak peek to share with you using new and upcoming products from the January - April 2025 Mini Catalog!  This card was created using the  Heart Shaped Bundle  which is a FREE SALE-A-BRATION item with a qualifying order starting on January 7, 2025! :) As you can see the Heart Shaped stamp set and coordinating dies is perfect for Valentines creations but it will also be perfect for other themed creations such as thinking of you, thank you, sympathy and birthday!  To create this card I simply die cut two hearts out - one in Daffodil Delight cardstock and the other in Basic White cardstock and swapped out the middle die cut negative for the other cardstock color.  I then die cut six flowers using Pumpkin Pie and Flirty Flamingo cardstock and the leaves using Mossy Meadow cardstock.  I just love these flowers!! In following this weeks new sketch challenge at Sunday Stamps!, I added a piece of Floral Delight 12" x 12"...

 Hello to my crafty friends. As promised, here is another creation using the Season of Elegance Suite that I made for my Christmas cards this year. This card shows just how quick and easy it really is to create a beautiful Christmas card in a matter of minutes. I stamped two of the largest trees from the Peaceful Evergreens Bundl e using Mossy Meadow ink onto Mossy Meadow cardstock and die cut them out.  Next, I embossed a piece of Mossy Meadow cardstock using the Painted Trees 3D Embossing Folder.  The trees were then adhered to the embossed cardstock piece using Dimensionals. Next, I embossed "happy" in gold onto a piece of Basic White cardstock and die cut it out using the Peaceful Season Bundle and then snipped the tails off. I then added the completed layer to a Basic White card base with a small strip of Gold Foil Sheets on the righthand side of the card front. Finally, I die cut an outline "Christmas" using Gold Foil Sheets and a Basic White cardstock for ...
