This is a cased card from my friend and demo, Deb Kaufman....loved the idea of one leaf hanging on the tree

Used the white craft ink to sponge the birch trees...used a qtip....easier to use than the dauber...

 I used a combination of thumping and applying different markers to the individual leaves...

Creative contest using the doily and piece of dsp

Linda Bauwin had a creative contest using both the doily and the piece of DSP...it took me awhile until I was satisfied with the outcome..but I loved this....

the zigzag circle is from the pillow box set....and the dots of snow is from running it through the embossing folder Softly Falling....

used a circle of cherry cobbler behind that piece....

and used our new folder Boughs and Berries on the large whisper white piece....

Customer thank you cards

I usually take several pictures of cards...but these I was anxious to send out...sorry for not taking several retakes...

wording embossed...

thank you card with washi tape

This is one of the simplest and most striking elegant cards.....you can put the washi tape on diagonally and then cut it off....and stamps in the area that is left....

 or after you have done the above...embossed it with a folder....really takes it up a notch....

To You and Yours and window framelit...

I just love the way this turned out.....happy with it...it took me awhile...think I may do a quick video on how I made the wreath....every once in awhile ....we get to do a happy dance...we really surprise ourselves....

 stamped the stamp in mossy meadow....and then added dazzling details and let it dry...it gave the mossy color a glistening look...like when it first snows....so pretty...

 after I stamped the whole image in mossy....I colored the deer suede...

 and added a red nose with a marker...then put dazzling details on that and let it dry before putting together....I ran it through the big shot (embossing folder for snow....on only the top 2/3 of area...
