Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer

I love Rudolph so it only made sense that I add the red jewel to the tip of the nose on the Dasher stamp. We made this card at my Christmas card class on the 11th. I think it might be my favorite out of the 5 designs I had to choose from. I love the oversided red jewel on the bow too!

Paper:

DSP - Merry Moments

PPA16 - Christmas Cheer

This card is made up of scraps from a Christmas card class I hosted last week. I need to start using my scraps more and thought why not now on this challenge. Using scraps also cut down on the design and production time of the card since almost everything is pre cut. I love the Merry Moments DSP paper-it's definitely my style. I combined it with a strip of old olive and some emblishments an a Christmas card was born.

Thankful

Below is the "Thankful" banner we created at my last class. This was the template for the participants. We used chocolate chip card stock to create the flags, autumn splendor stamp set, autumn meadows DSP, and inks in chocolate chip, more mustard, and dusty durango. I love the way it turned out!

PPA 114 - In the Pink

I've had this hope sign and didn't know what to do with it. It was all back and didn't really fit anywhere in my house. I love the way this turned out. It makes me smile every time I look at it. Which is important with thinking about "hope". I hope and pray that someday we will have a cure for this disease but until then don't forget to do your monthly self breast exams and if you are 40 or older to get your yearly mammogram.
