For today's card, i CASEd the lovely Paula Dobson @ Stampinantics. I loved making this card even if I had to fussy cut that reindeer. The piece of Cherry Cobbler DSP is my favorite from that pack. I love the subtle pattern.
Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card featuring stars. I decided to make a garland of stars. As an added facet, I embossed the large Old Olive stars. In essence, this is a simple design, but the play of color, pattern, and textures make is a great card!

I turned the sketch on its side and featured a pretty embossed Christmas tree. You can't tell very well, but the ornaments and the base of the tree is embossed in gold. Very pretty and shiny! And this gives me an excuse to use my pretty Winter Wonderland Vellum stack.
Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a Christmas card. Another card featuring the Merry Moments DSP pack. Can't you tell I love it! I again went simple with my design. I focused on the polka dot print and repeated the circles with the embossing folder and sentiment. Another simple yet cute Christmas card.

I somehow ran out of Tip Top Taupe cardstock in my crazy Christmas card frenzy. No worries, I still have the ink! And my Real Red ink just went dry and I don't have a handy reinker. Never fear, I have Cherry Cobbler! Close enough.
For the actual card, I went with this cute reindeer tag that I saw online. Yep, that's my fingerprint. From there, I added a simple sentiment and some dsp. As a final touch, I added a strip of washi tape (couldn't resist the contrasting green).
Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a red and green card. This year I decided on various shades of red and green for my Christmas cards. For this card, I wanted to feature the Merry Moments DSP pack. I love the big polka dot print.

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a Christmas card. I've loved using the Merry Moments DSP pack. This card and it's variation were a way to highlight the paper. It's a clean card, but I love it.
Today's card is actually a trio of cards. After almost a month of making cards, I have a ton of scraps laying around the desk. I hate to throw them away, but what to make with them? Of course, a banner card! I jazzed this one up a bit by embossing the vanilla piece and adding a simple sentiment on the bottom. The inside includes a little Christmas quote.

Today’s card is featured over at Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration and features a Christmas card challenge. This month I also joined Punk Projects for their 30 Days of Christmas Cards challenge.
For today's project, I decided to move beyond a greeting a card and made a few gift card holders. These are incredibly easy to make. Cut a piece of cardstock 3 1/2" x 8 1/2". Score at 2" and 6". Fold. Glue down the bottom flap. Add some patterned paper and a belly band and voila! Instant gift card holder! For these ones, I added a cute little nutcracker embellishment to help finish off the look!
I did a few more GC holders of different looks, colors, and papers.
