Card Cupids Winter Wishes Holiday Drive

Card Cupids is having a Winter Wishes Holiday Drive to provide toys for children in need.
My husband, Tom and I went to Walmart, and Tom had waaaaay to much fun in the toy dept! These toys are on the UPS sleigh to Card Cupids.

Christmas is about Giving.

Find an organization near to your heart, and
Be a Blessing.

Spirelli string art

I saw a beautiful card created by Carol Norby, and I knew I had to try this.
I used the "Sew Easy" fancy floss available from Memory Works, and a scalloped circle cut with my Spellbinders die.
Here is a link to a great tutorial.

Happy Thanksgiving

I am now up to 9 cards created with the Simple Stories 25 days of Christmas paper pad, and 6 cards using the "So Blessed" stamp set.
Love getting a band for my buck!
Happy Thanksgiving!

25 days of Christmas paper pad

I have been able to create 8 different Christmas cards using just ONE paper pad. And I still have plenty of paper left! Some of the pages have these mini journaling squares with sentiment, making it super easy!
The Simple Stories 25 days of Christmas 6 x 6 paer pad!

So Blessed stamp set

This is the 5th card I have created using the "So Blessed" stamp set by Unity, available from Memory Works. I also used it on cards #1, 2, 3, and 8. (see previous posts below)
Notice you can use all, or only portions of the stamp.
The paper is My Minds Eye Lost and Found Breeze 6 x 6 paper pad, also available from Memory Works.

Yesterday I sold my cards at a craft fair, and the proceeds benefitted Hope's Haven Pet Rescue. The rescue brought several of their kittens that are looking for their "fur"ever homes. If you live in the middle TN area, and you, or someone you know, is looking for a "fur"ever friend, please contact the rescue.
