A Pair of Mittens

For this card, I CASEd this great card from Cindy Lee Bee Designs. These mittens are so much fun! And I love the repeating mitten pattern in the DSP piece. But my absolute favorite part of the card is the Cable Knit Embossed piece. Love love love the texture!

#21 Quilted Reindeer

Today's sketch comes from May 2014:

 

Today's card was the first of many Merry Patterns reindeer cards I made this month. I love the simple nature of the repeating circles with lots of texture and pattern. As a finishing touch, I added some rhinestones to the reindeer's antlers.

Sweater Tag

My countdown to Christmas continues with this lovely card full of pattern and texture. The Cable Knit Embossing Folder is an amazing way to create visual and tactile interest on your cards. I added a strip of DSP from the Warmth and Cheer Stack to continue the sweater theme. From there I finished the card with a simple tag and a few embellishments. And the card features my favorite Christmas color combination of Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green.

A Warm Christmas

Can you tell how much I love the Wrapped in Warmth Stamp Set? The greetings are so perfect for all my cards. For this card, I played with layering different pieces of cardstock, one DSP strip and one embossed strip, to create an interesting backdrop for my doily and sentiment. Note the fun stitching around the sentiment. I have totally fallen for the Stitched Shapes Framelits. So glad I bought those last month.
