Day 27 of “A Christmas card a Day in November” goal!

Good evening Friends,

Today is Thanksgiving Day eve. We had to run out to the grocery store today, for a forgotten item, (ended up w/ more then went in for.)

My mom had a splendid Birthday; my dad and step-mom came over, my step-mom had some great crafting supplies for her.

Here is a photo of my mom with the Birthday gift from me, (I gave it to her the night before:)

Click photo to enlarge

 

I did tell her about all of your Birthday wishes for her and she says Thank you!

Day 27:

I have used the “Season of Joy” set today paired with the Winter Frost #132341 DSP on top of Island Indigo  #122923 card stock. I silver embossed the tree and yellow embossed the star, fussy cut, then w/ glue of choice, I glued it down. I used Island Indigo ink #126986 for the sentiment on the left.  The ribbons I used are: Coastal Cabana – Ruffle Stretch Trim #130024, “Smoky Slate Chevron Ribbon #131152,″ and “Bermuda Bay Taffeta Ribbon #131206.″

This is the inside of the card. All stamps came from the same set “Season of Joy.” I of course have used the Top note die for the inside message.

Thank you all so very much for keeping me going, honestly you all really have!! Peace be unto you!

Day 16 of “A Christmas card a Day in November” goal!

Good evening Friends,

I keep forgetting that today is Saturday. How about you guys? You ever have those days?

Here is some info for you If this is your first time here then here is a quick recap: If you would like to be entered into my drawing to win a Stampin’ Up! stamp set then: Become a follower (If you are not a follower already.) Make a comment on each of my posts for “A Christmas card a day in November” goal. Easy Right! Then on Dec 1st or 2nd, I will use Random.org to find a winner. My over the pond friends are allowed in this adventure!

Day 16:

Today I have used 2 different stamp Stampin’ Up! stamp sets. The trees are from the set “Scentsational Season” and they have  matching ThinLits dies that go with this set. The sentiment is from a Hostess set called “Occasional Quotes.” (Neither set is in the current catalog. However, they do bring past stamp sets into the new catalogs. A new catalog will be out in June 2014.) I stamped my trees in (from left to right) “Always Artichoke, Gumball Green, and Lucky Limeaid” ink. I stamped 3 of each color, used my magnetic plate and cut all of them out, including the star. I then made 3D effect with them.

If you have not used a magnetic plate, you truly are missing out!! I was naw I can do w/o! Well when my mom and I got ours in the mail and I used it…. well that’s all it took! I am in LOVE!

item # 130658

Trust me you will love this thing if you used metal die cuts of any brand!

Here is a side view so you can see that the trees protrude. The DSP is a past Christmas double sided paper pack. Ribbon from stash. The corner cut outs are from Sizzix.

I have stamped the inside and the out side sentiment with Ridding Hood Red ink. This senti here is from the same set as the senti on the front, Occasional Quotes.

 

Thank you for being honest with me about the card I posted yesterday (Day 15) some of you all said it was hard to make out the image. I did try coloring it different ways. I studied the stamp. But I honestly don’t know how to make it look better. I of course can change the LO of it, and that might help? However, I know I can’t win them all as the cliche goes. That was the 1st time I have used that set. My mom has only used it twice.

I appreciate honest feed back. I understand you might get busy and just make a comment “Oh looks nice” or whatever. I do appreciate that you came to visit me, but there is nothing you can say to me that will up set me… so be honest, Thanks!

Thank you for your visit today and for your comments! You are all the BEST! Love YOU-mean it!

Peace,
KristyLee
