Priceless Friendship

Here it is, just two days before the New Year. I've been so lax with my blog posts over the past few months. So, with New Years Day so close, ONE of my resolutions is to post more often on this blog. Yes, I know......resolutions are usually broken, but I really need to get my life back on track. 

So, here is a fun and easy card I made. My first time at using "silk" for the splatters. What fun!!!

Christmas Candles

I finally am getting a head start on my Christmas cards. Christmas is my favorite time for card making. So, I dug through my stash of Christmas stamps and this is one of the cards I came up with.

Dies are from Spellbinders. Stamps are from Fun Stampers Journey and Papers are from Close to my Heart. Stamps and papers are retired.

Blue Pansies Mother's Day Card

I was playing around again with some Fred She Said digi images. This one is Blue Pansies in a Tea Cup. I also used the butterflies from "Butterflies Doodle Dallions"

I used some of my retired CTMH cardstock, Sky and Star Spangled Blue.

My friend Crystal got me hooked on We R Memory Keepers Next Level Embossing Folders. The one I used, I think, Is the Basket Weave.
