Christmas Card

Went through my stash to start making more holiday cards. This one is made using a retired stamp and die set from Stampin' Up called Poinsettia Petals. Saw something similar on Pinterest and this is my version.


I fussy cut the poinsettias from the matching paper pack and used the dies for the berry stems and leaves using CTMH New England Ivy which is retired and CTMH Expresso Cardstock. The flock paper is called Plush Poinsettia and the gold label is from Expressions in Ink Ephemera Pack. The sentiment came from a retired Cricut coordinating stamp set called Holiday Tags. I popped that up with 3D dimensional  tape. 

I told you I was using from my stash. Hope this encourages you to go through your stash. You can get great some ideas from Pinterest.

My goal is to make at least one card from every set I own. We shall see how that goes!

Craft Roulette #131 last Halloween Card

The latest Craft Roulette Challenge #131. Parameters were tag with pocket, (Team) colors plus 2, lights and black & white image. Team colors is an inside claim on Craft Roulette. Some people prefer orange and some purple. Those are the top colors. Others like rainbow colors, blue and so on. I am partial to Team Purple but this card lead me to Team Orange. My plus 2 colors are purple and green. The B&W image is the ghost and the pattern paper used for the pocket. Lights are behind the ghost.



So now all my Halloween cards are done. Will move on to thanksgiving. Don't forget to check my store for your holiday papers and stamps! We have some great ones!

Craft Roulette #130

Wow, what a challenge this weeks card turned out to be! Fancy fold, dusty hues, starts with D and pennants. Here is what I made!



I fussy cut the poinsettias out from some SU paper I had in my stash and the pennants were from CTMH Pennant Banner Alphabet Stamp and Thin-Cuts. The D parameter is the enamel dots on the banner. I used Shortbread cardstock and the Green paper pattern paper is from Four Seasons- Winter Paper from the Core catalog. Oh, I did a Z fold card. You can check out my store for these and any other crafting items!

I hope you like how it turned out! Thanks for stopping by!

Craft Roulette #129

Hope you all could join us for this weeks Craft Roulette. The parameters this week were inside/outside, any colors, critters and 4 squares. So here is what I came up with.


I used the new Seasonal Haul Stamp and Thin Cuts Z4655 and the critters came from retired sets but you can use any critters you may have on hand. I used Clover and Candy Apple Cardstock and pattern paper was from my stash but I should have used on newest paper Four Seasons Winter Paper Packet from our main catalog but I didn't have it yet. My coloring still needs work but if you don't succeed the first time, try try again! LOL! So I managed another holiday card using these parameters. Card four of 35 done! Yay!

Thanks for stopping by and would love to see what you made with these parameters!

Happy Crafting!

Craft Roulette #128 Thanksgiving Card

Another submission for Craft Roulette. I was able to make a Thanksgiving card with the parameters.

A2 card with Sunflower field colors with one unusual color and something that makes you happy.

This is what I came up with. One more holiday card done!


I used Pumpkin Spice Bulk Paper which is on sale! You also could use the current Crisp Air Paper pack . The die I used is called Multi Square Windows Die and just cut one section out for the sentiment! The stamp set is a retired Constant Campaign stamp but any mini stamp set could work. The squares are 1" in size.
