no place like home for the holidays

ETA: A better photo. Wow, I must have been editing in the dark! Sorry about that!

Today I am sharing another project using the Studio AE November kit from Technique Tuesday. The set is called, Memories of Home. And like the song says, there’s no place like home for the holidays. In fact, that is even a sentiment in this set, “there’s no place like home.”

Technique Tuesday Nov Kit Kimberly Crawford v2

That song, of course, inspired this card. The house was stamped onto Creative Imaginations Cherry Wood paper and cut out. Some great Studio Calico papers were distressed and layered to the card base. And Paper Source trim was adhered to the top. (to keep your bows in place, use small Dodz behind each tail and loop of the bow)

Oh, and the sentiment is from the Jingle All the Way set from Ali Edwards and Technique Tuesday.

A very large thank you to Technique Tuesday for having me guest design this month! They are such good people over there, it’s a pleasure creating with their product!! Not to mention the stamps are fantastic in design and quality!

thanks for stopping by!

Gratitude: Today I am thankful that I get to be a stay-at-home mom. Not only have I been able to spend my days with our little man, and now working at school, but I also have the ability to get all those annoying errands out of the way during the week, so our weekends, and for the most part, evenings, stay free for family time.

This will be the end of the month of gratitude. Thank you for all of you who have left comments each day. Its great to read about what you have to be thankful for, it reminds me of things I take for granted. I will draw TWO winners later during the weekend and announce the winners early next week. I have two boxes full of stamps, a set of dies, paper, adhesive, and other fun stuff. So, if you haven’t, come and leave comments now! :)

And the reason for me being gone is, my parents have decided to come for Thanksgiving! We are SO excited, but oh there is so much work to do to get ready! It’s a wonderful problem! And I need to remind myself to take it easy, so I don’t pay the price to the rheumatoid arthritis floating around my immune system. :)

Happy Easter with Avocado Arts

happy easter

Happy Easter! A little early. :) Today I used the March kit from Avocado Arts, Springtime Celebrations. I wanted to channel my inner shabby but fabby Julia Stainton. ;)

I cannot leave the wood grain patterned papers alone! It’s a trend I am happy to join in with! The egg was stamped onto muslin and cut out. (Surprisingly, the Memento ink worked on it well. I wouldn’t wash anything with this ink stamped on it, but for cards and projects it’s a happy discovery!) It was added to a tag that was inked on the edges. The tag was also stamped with the nest from the set. Isn’t it cute?

Be sure and stop by the rest of the team to be inspired!

CardMaker Blog Team Little Lullabies Hop

Little Lullabies Hop Baby Boy

Little Lullabies Hop Baby Girl

For our CardMaker Magazine blog team hop today, we are creating baby cards. Babies are on the mind in our family right now because my sister is expecting in June. We just found out that she is having a boy! But I just had to make a card for a boy and a girl.

It was very easy to make two cards with this new paper pad from My Mind’s Eye. Miss Caroline; Howdy Doody has the sweetest papers! To go along with the papers, I wanted to add something soft. Then the idea struck me to die cut some felt with Donna’s Alphabet from Spellbinders.

And notice the stamped sentiment? Well, it’s a sneak peek at what Mint Motif has coming out in March! :)

Visit the rest of the team and see what creativity awaits!
