PAPER WORKS

The Holly Berry designer paper is gorgeous. This card has a very small sampling and you can't see it but the polka dots are embossed gltter. Another paper in the collection has embossed glitter stripes- so Christmas candy-ish!

Another quick card letting the paper do the work.

Happy long weekend everyone.

SILVER GLITTER CARDSTOCK- OH MY!

Can you say "Luscious"? That's what it is. Stampin' Up! has silver glitter cardstock and it's just as beautiful as the red. So easy to use, no messing with adhesive and loose glitter, although that has it's fun side too.

Be warned, as I seem to be on a bit of a Christmas kick, which is no surprise since I just received an order with Christmas themed goodies in it  :)

And that too, is LUSCIOUS!

Have an amazing day!

ANOTHER VERSATILE CARD MAP

Simple components, complimentary colours and a bit of texture round out this different Christmas card. Again, could easily be adapted to any occasion.

Hope you are having a wonderful day!

COLOUR Q CELEBRATION!

Today, Colour Q presented their 100th challenge. One hundred weeks! Amazing.

I've only been participating for a few weeks and can understand the appeal to take up the challenges. This is the card map we were given and we could choose the colour challenge from past weeks. I chose this one....

Very fall-ish but totally suits my mood today. Kind of serious and subdued but ready to shift into

party mode :)   Here's my entry...

If you haven't taken up a Colour Q challenge yet, I encourage you to do so. You'll have fun!

Have some fun today- thanks for looking.

ANY OCCASION CARD MAP

This card shows Christmas but it would be so simple to change it up, for any occasion.

The image was stamped, watercoloured, covered in Versamark ink and embossed with Iridescent Ice powder. Click on the card and you may be able to see the sparkle a little easier.

When do you start working on Christmas cards? 

I hope you enjoy yourself whenever that may be.

FOUR MONTHS AND COUNTING

Here's a quick and easy card for Christmas. Two shades of blue and a vellum band with the greeting make for a bold presentation. Need a stack of cards quickly? One like this would do it.

Have a marvelously creative and fulfilling day!

A SCRAP MAT

This quick card has a secret. Behind the design paper, the more mustard mat is full of holes. It was used for punching out pieces for various other cards, but had enough of an edge that I could use it for a mat. Just a little frugal tip for you today :)

Have a terrific day!
