Sometimes Valentine’s aren’t close by…and sometimes you don’t have to stamp a Valentine in bright Real Red. Here’s a perfect card for someone you miss…

Have you worked with our sequins yet? What a fun way to add some bling to a card!
A while back, I joined a monochromatic card swap. This is the one I created.
An Open Heart Thank You Card
Trying a new color combination is pretty easy to do when you have such a wealth of gorgeous colors as in the Stampin’ Up! line of inks/card stock. I am loving this combo – Island Indigo and Early Espresso with the gold glimmer paper. Striking, masculine (but not overly), and inspired by Autumn.
Sometimes, mailing cards with lots of embellishments is disastrous – either the envelope gets ripped, postage gets expensive, or the embellishment gets mutilated. It really doesn’t happen too often, but it is also good to have a quick and easy go-to alternative. I love polka dots in almost any form. Creating glitter circles is super quick, cheap, and fuss-free plus it adds just enough wow to a card.
Angel Punch Art with Pennant Punch
This summer I hosted a Crazy About the Pennant Punch stamp camp. We really were a little crazy that evening! I wanted to bring in a Christmas card to the mix, so I shared this one with my stampers. It really goes together quickly!
Punches needed are as follows:
- Pennant Punch for dress
- Scallop Circle for wings
- Owl for hair and heart
- 1″ Circle for hair bangs and face
- Cupcake for cheeks
- 1/2″ and 3/4″ Circles for halo
Of course, the Scalloped Tag Punch is the backing for the angel.
Although this is a Christmas card, it could easily be transformed into a child’s birthday card, a thank you card, a baby card, or even a get well card!
In my religion, today is also All Saints Day so although it is not a traditional card-giving holiday, it does go with the theme of the day.
My Stampin’ Up! Anniversary
It’s hard to believe 14 years ago I signed up to be a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator. As many demonstrators can relate, I “only signed up for the discount” was my feeling at the time. I had no intention of doing parties or teaching others; I just wanted to get my crafting goodies cheap!
Well, here I am 14 years later, and my classes are busier than ever! I love what I do, and I truly cherish the women I have welcomed into my home and crafting circle.
I started my anniversary celebrations earlier this month – I’m hosting an event in my home plus offering an item for 14% off each week. I’ve offered some giveaways on my Facebook page already. Here’s one for readers of my blog:
You will receive this Paper Pumpkin Kit – Party Pennants! It includes 3 background stamps, 2 inkspots (Summer Starfruit and Pool Party), and all the items to make a cute little banner! You can use the banner to decorate your hearth, a cake, or take parts of it and use it on cards or scrapbook pages!
Leave a comment on my blog and tell me what you will be celebrating in the coming months! I’ll pick a random winner on Wednesday evening!

Another quick and simple baby card – color combination is Wisteria Wonder and Pear Pizzazz!
An Open Heart – Woodgrain Scallop Tag
A simply quiet card with masculine undertones…love this stamp set.

A quick and easy card using Work of Art and Fall Fest stamp sets. The leaf accent is one of our new wooden accents sponged with an ink pad!

Just a quick little baby card using the stars and phrases from Something to Say and the cute little tshirt from Something for Baby. Color combination is Wisteria Wonder and Daffodil Delight!
