Beary Merry Card

The leftovers are put away and the dish washer is running. It was a wonderful Thanksgiving. Now I'm looking ahead to the Christmas holiday season. Back in June I went to retreat with friends where I decided to work on my 2017 Christmas cards. Today I got them out , addressed envelopes, and tomorrow they will be in the mail. I'm so excited to have that off the checklist!

The card design is an SVG file from Lori Whitlock called Pop Up Box Card Polar Bear.

Pumpkin Kisses & Harvest Wishes

Here is another darling card that uses products from Fun Stampers Journey. I created this card at a class and was amazed at how to do the background. We inked up a block to add color to the embossed image! This card is not my design. To find out more about how to make this card and the products used visit here.

Give Thanks Card

Recently a friend introduced me to Fun Stampers Journey. I went to a card class and this is one of the cards that was taught. It is not my design. To find out more about how to make this card and the products used visit here.

Sympathy Card

I created this card because I wanted a former coworker to know I was thinking about her in her time of grief.
