A few week’s back I won a grab bag of mini kits from Nerd’s the Word Sticker Co. and they finally arrived! Just take a look at these beauties!

I ordered a few Christmas kits, a year long sticker pack (for my Memory Planner), some expander rings, some adhesive, and a Mambi sticker. book from Amazon over the past two weeks or so.

All is Bright Suite

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card featuring one of the Holiday Catalog Suites. As soon as I got my catalog, I knew I needed to have the All is Bright Suite! I love the color combinations, the paper, accessories, and all the coordinating stamp sets! This card is all about using the various elements from that suite.  I had fun layering various elements to create a full card. My favorite part is the addition of the paper clip.

SSINKTC54: Copper Starburst

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card using the starburst technique. I love making starburst cards even if they take a bit of planning and construction. I was drawn to the beautiful shine in the Joyous Noel DSP. To amp up the sparkle, I added some of the Copper Glimmer paper from the accompanying Joyous Noel Glimmer Paper pack. I added a coordinating strip of DSP and a simple sentiment to complete my card.

Sunday Haul #21

For this year’s December Daily, I decided against the Ali Edwards kit and went instead for the Document December kit from Elle’s Studio. I really really loved the imagery and the colors in this year’s kit. In addition to the kit itself, I grabbed some extra tags and accessories plus a cute coffee kit.

Trio of Ladies

Today’s cards have been sitting half done for months now. I had a whole stack of these unfinished cards and took a Saturday to knock them out. I had the Regal Rose card bases and smaller pieces cut for a previous card, but had sold the stamp set that I used for those cards. SO I improvised with a different stamp set. I stamped three different images from the Hand Delivered Stamp Set and had some fun coloring them.

Anything Goes! Celebrate!

Today’s card is being featured on Stylin’ Stampin’ Inkspiration. The challenge was to create a card where anything goes! Every once in a while, I get the urge to make completely random cards, no design plan, no theme, just a card. This was my attempt at using no stamps but lots of fun DSP. I really wanted to feature the beautiful copper accents in the Joyous Noel DSP. Love how this one turned out!

Check out that shine!

Half a Dozen Donuts

Today’s cards have been sitting half done for months now. I had a whole stack of these unfinished cards and took a Saturday to knock them out. These cards feature leftover donuts from a Paper Pumpkin kit. I hate wasting little pre-cut elements, so I pulled out my stack of paper scraps and starting pairing paper, DSP, and donuts. I love the eclectic look of these cards.

Floral Happiness

Today’s card has been sitting half done for months now. I had a whole stack of these unfinished cards and took a Saturday to knock them out. I had stamped a ton of flowers and random panels and these were the only ones left. I had the great idea to fussy cut all these stamped and colored flowers, but my goodness, I dislike fussy cutting. At any rate, this turned out to be a cute card.
