Hello!

Just popping in real quick to share a birthday card I made for my youngest sister. The stamp is from Sweet November Fairwees and the sentiment is from AmyR. Loved how this came out and keeps me young at heart whenever using these images.

Card in a Box!

Hello Weekend!!

I been wanting to share this post for a long time but just never got the pictures together and sorry for my picture taking skills here in advance...lol I came across this before the holidays and knew I had to make one. The stamp set is Festive Flurry from Stampin Up! It has a coordinating die cut with it too which is what makes it so awesome! Below is my first take on the card in 3-D form. You can find a video tutorial here. Keep in mind that the tutorial is in the UK and their paper size is different from ours! I figured that out the hard way and created a small guide of my own for you if you want to give it a stab at the end=) The card is very versatile for other occasions not just Christmas. It was fun and I will definitely use it again so hope you have fun! Leanne also made some cool cards of this after we had a craft get together doing this with some buddies check it out!
