Oct 15th and Nov 1st Cards...

This first picture is of the Oct 15th ones... the top one is the punches only one, and the second is of snowflakes....they both ended up being snowflakes... as I'm in Christmas mode right now and that's all my brain can comprehend!

These are my cards for Nov 1st (done early - as the aOct 15th ones are late!!!) The card is stamped with Stampin' Up stamps... and the tags are too. I chalked the edges of the tags, then used colored pencil to color in the pictures... FUN STUFF. I'm falling in love with rubber stamping!

Christmas Stamping. Use any Christmas stamps that you would like to. You can do more than just stamps, but I think that the background, or main focus should be the stamp.

I think that we should create Christmas tags to put on Christmas presents. They don't need to be very big, and they don't have to even fold like a card, but something that says to and from with room to write. I think that these could be mini masterpieces. Just something cute to give your gift a little extra. You can make only two if you want, or more. I know that I will be making lots. I did this as a swap online last year and I ended up with lots of cute ideas. They don't have to be the same either. Lets just send each other a variety of say 6 tags. Is that too many? Let me know what you think.

Fun cards

Last night I had a few friends over just to make cards. We had a blast and I already got my cards done. I'm pretty excited about it because it seems like I'm always doing them at the last minute. The first is a die cut snowflake that is also embossed. You can't really tell. And I stamped the snowflake border. The second is punched flowers that I inked the edges and stamped thank you. These were fun and the other girls loved them and had to make their own copies of them. I wish that you could come over and make cards. That would be so fun!

Since I'm sitting here in my living room freezing, lets do something snow. I love snowflakes. But I'm sooooo not ready for winter to come yet. Whatever you can think of that has snowflakes on it. I even have a punch of a snowflake!

PUNCHES. I think that the only thing we should use this time is punches. One or more, just use the die-cut(s) from a punch(es). Good luck!

I am NOT good with using stamps alone, obviously. It was definately a challenge for me. So, at least I can say that while you have a couple ugly cards, I learned what not to do! :) I know that I cheated a little on the stamping only one, and I chalked it. The other one was just stamps too, only with ribbon attached. I PROMISE to make cute cards next time. It's been a hectic crazy last couple of weeks and I'm disappointed with how they turned out. Oh well. We live and learn.

Oct. 1 Cards

Here are my two cards. The first I cut the scalloped rectangle with my Silhouette and I cut the black stickers with my Silhouette. The second is all stamped. It was fun, but I think it is a little boring. Oh well. I mailed them just a few minutes ago. I hope they don't take long to get to you.
