Quick and Simple

Four-Square Christmas

     Hello!  Today's card is CASE'd from Debra Currier's blog ARTfelt Impressions (here).  If you haven't checked out Debra's blog I highly recommend it, she's so talented!
     And I have to admit that just like last week's card, I {loved} everything about her card and changed nothing!

Festival of Prints Thanksgiving

     Hello!  Today's card was inspired by marmie43gs' Day of Gratitude card over at SCS (here).  I loved her layout and decided just to change the color combo.  I ordered a pack of the Festival of Prints DSP when the Holiday Catalog came out back in August but this is the first card I've made with it.  I absolutely {love} the prints and colors, they're beautiful!

Crumb Cake Thanksgiving

     Hello!  Today's card was one that was made out of scraps.  I cut out too many leaves and had a bit of extra ribbon laying around and couldn't bear to throw any of it out.
     In place of the Leaves #2 die, which is retired, you could use the Autumn Accents Bigz Die from the Holiday Catalog.

Stamps: Teeny Tiny Wishes
Ink: Early Espresso
Paper: Crumb Cake, Cajun Craze, More Mustard, Lucky Limeade
Tools & Accessories:  Big Shot, Leaves #2 die (retired), Square Lattice embossing folder, grosgrain ribbon (retired), linen thread, button

Simple Thank You

     Hello!  Today's card was inspired by Jen's "Sending Love" card over at her blog (here).  I ordered the postage stamp punch as well as the small heart punch ages ago but rarely use them (gasp!).  When I saw Jen's card using both of these punches I knew I had to make it!
     To make Jen's card more of my own I added a layer of white CS, opted for a button rather than mini library clilp and moved the sentiment to the lower right corner.  This card is incredibly quick to make and could easily be mass produced.

Beautiful Butterflies

 Hello! Today's card was inspired by StamperJen0's Happy Day to You! card over at SCS.  I absolutely loved her layout and to make the card more of my own I decided to break out my Wisteria Wonder card stock (I LOVE that color!).  I used the Color Coach to help me choose colors that would coordinate with the purple (LOVE that tool!)

Paper: Crumb Cake, Whisper White, Wisteria Wonder, Cherry Cobbler, Pink Pirouette
Tools & Accessories: Big Shot, Beautiful Wings embosslits die, paper piercer, modern label punch, grosgrain ribbon

On a Dark & Dreary Night...

     Hello!  Halloween is my favorite holiday but surprisingly I only own one Halloween stamp set (although Spooky Bingo Bits is super cute and I may have to order that soon!).  I originally purchased Dark & Dreary when it was featured in the 2010 Holiday mini and was happy to see it carried over to the 2011 Idea Book & Catalog.
     Today's card was inspired by Patty B's Pretty in Paint card (here) over at SCS.  I absolutely loved her layout and decided to change very little on for my card.  I did want to add a bit of sparkle to one of the layers so I pulled out my Iridescent Ice Stampin' Emboss powder and VersaMark and applied it to the entire second layer.  I should note that I stamped the sentiment in StazOn before applying the embossing powder.
     Even though the Iridescent Ice gives this card a great "wow" effect, it was very simple to make and could easily be mass produced.  If you plan on making Halloween cards but need to stock up on paper or accessories (or perhaps a new Halloween stamp set!) there's still time to place an order!
