Glistening Snow.....

Hello and good Friday afternoon my stamping friends! I have a fun little project to share with you all. For my project I have used a very different color combination for me.....Kraft, silver and cream. To see how well these colors actually go together have a look at this

Recipe:

Paper: Recollections Kraft, silver specialty paper from my stash

What do you think? This can be just a little hanger to put on your TV cabinet or curio or even on your Christmas tree!  The base of this wall hanging is 6.5" x 4.5".

Before I go I have some announcements to make. If you have a Facebook account you can win a $25 gift certificate just for hitting the "Like" button on the ODBD FB page. How awesome is that? To see the entire post and all of the details make sure you'll check out this post right HERE.

Also, if you are still looking for some amazing gifts for friends and family, how about a gift certificate from Our Daily Bread Designs? Kelley has a special going on right now if you spend $ 50 in gift certificates, which start at only $5.00, you will get a $10 gift certificate for FREE for every $50 you spend!!!  That is one fabulous deal!!!! 


Well, this is it for me for right now!  I urge you to please say a little prayer for all of those that were part of the horrific Elementary school shooting in Connecticut and their families. I saddens me that someone would just shoot these little babes! I have a daughter in 2nd grade and I can only imagine what the parents who lost their child today are going through!

Have a blessed and safe weekend!

Hugs,

Snowy Christmas Blessings

Hello and happy Friday stamping friends! Sorry it has been a few days since I posted, but I was down with a severe migraine. I finally was able to take a picture of my card I made a few days ago and this is what came out. I know it very rarely snows here in Southern Arizona, but I remember oh so good how much snow we've had back home n Germany growing up. There were more than one days that we had no school because of too much snow. So, this card is in remembrance of those days.

Hello and happy Monday evening sweet stamping friends. I have a card to share with you all tonight that I've made using the Chickadee Ornament stamp set by Our Daily Bread Designs.  If you have a chance have a look and let me know what you think. To be honest, this card came together so very quickly, that it totally would be a card you could mass produce. Oh, and the best part, it is pretty flat and can be mailed in a regular envelope :D:D

See for yourself

Paper: PTI White, Recollections corrugated card

Stamps:  ODBD Chickadee Ornament

Ink: Memento Rich Coca, Tim Holtz Distressing Ink Broken China

Have a blessed Thanksgiving and if you are traveling, be safe!!

Hello and happy Thursday stamping friends. I have a tag to share with you all today, but first I would like to say to all of my stamping friends out there. I am sorry I have not been around much. I am still dealing with shoulder pain and have seen my PCM and he has written up another referral to the specialist and I am waiting to hear from my insurance. It looks like that the inflammation I have is still present and I most likely need an MRI and another shot into my shoulder joint. To make a long story short, my time on the computer is very limited and time crafting has to be spread out as too long in the same position is causing a lot of irritation, so please don't give up on me yet!!

Anyhow, here is the tag I created.

The Babe

Recipe:

Paper: Light weight chip board, Recollections Kraft, PTI Vintage Cream, My Minds Eye Lost&Found Christmas

Stamps:  ODBD The Babe

Accessories: Spellbinders Grand Labels 4, Labels 4, Labels 25, Cheery Lynn Designs Fanciful Flourish, cross charm, burlap, twine ribbon, muslin strips, poinsettia

So, this is my tag for today. If you have a minute I'd really like to know what you think.

Well, this is it for me for today. Thanks so very much for stopping by to say hello! It is always a joy to my friends visit!

Have a blessed and super creative day!

Hugs,
