Stencil Ornaments

 This was one of my favorite swaps that I received at Founder's Circle. It was made by Angela McKay. She used the ornament stencils found in the Definitely Decorative catalog on pg 29. She just sponged inside each stencil to create this gorgeous card. She also added stamped images to the top of each ornament. I just love it!  I can't wait to try this card myself.

Baby Wipe Technique video!

I finally had a chance to do another video! I hope you like it. I would like to do a lot more videos but I need to be able to do them faster. It does take a couple of hours from start to finish…..mostly the editing is what takes so long. It would be so much easier if I could just tell my computer what to do and it would do it for me! LOL! I am showing the Baby Wipe technique with the Autumn Splendor stamp set from the Holiday mini.

Embossed Christmas cards…gorgeous!

Here are a couple of gorgeous Christmas cards using Patty Bennett’s brilliant idea shown here. She took an oval wooden frame and put it under the embossing folder and ran it through the Big Shot so the oval shape in the middle did not get embossed and then you could stamp on it. She also shows how to use your craft knife to cut out the oval shape here if you don’t want to use the wooden frame method. These 2 cards are both from my Founder’s Circle swaps. The first card was made by Kim Peck  and the second one was made by Patty Bennett! I was so excited to get these cards because I had seen Patty’s technique and couldn’t wait to try it but never had a chance so now I have samples! 

Halloween is almost here…..

I can’t believe it is already the middle of October! Where did this year go? Here are a couple of Halloween swaps from Founder’s Circle.  I am not a huge Halloween fan, but these were too cute not to share. This adorable skeleton card was made by Laura Milligan.  

This spider card was made by my good friend Tami White. I love how she bleached the paper with the stamp to make it look like a spider web.

This cute pumpkin card was made by Joyce Feraco. I hope this gives you all some great Halloween ideas.

Winner of this week’s blog candy!

The winner of this week’s blog candy is Brenda Turner! Congratulations Brenda, you win that beautiful bird house gift set. Stay tuned for another blog candy contest coming soon.

Delightful Decorations….

 Here are a couple more Founder’s Circle swap cards using the Delightful Decorations set. The first one was made by Christy Harsch.  She embossed a piece of foil and then punched it out with the ornament punch. I thought that was such a neat idea.

This card was made by Kim Evans. She used the Delightful Decorations set and punched out the images with the ornament punch also.  I love the color combo on this one.
