Hello and Happy Friday!! I just LOVE doing these showdowns with my friend Anna! This time we decided to use our new Cowboy Shilouette Diecuts that our friend Beth Matson sent us!! Thanks again Beth!!!! I just LOVE them!!!
——
I hadn’t used my Cosmo Cricket Halfway Cafe collection in awhile, so I thought it would be a good time!! I distressed all the edges in black ink. I was SOOOO excited, while cleaning a week or so ago I found that cute little cowboy boot charm!! I bought it a few years ago when my friends and I hit a local scrapbook store! Cleaning ROCKS! lol!!!!
The finished size is 8 x 4″. I really hope you enjoy our cards!! Make sure to check Anna’s out too, she always knocks my socks off!!
——
Have a fantastic weekend!!! Make sure to check back tomorrow to meet my new December Guest stamper!! HUGS!!

Hello!! Using Metallic Cardstock was the “ways to use it” challenge on Splitcoaststampers today! I knew right away I HAD to use my Websters Dufex paper!! I love this stuff!! It’s sooooo shiny!!!! You can purchase it HERE. I’ve wanted to use these darling Melissa Frances stickers for so long, so I finally did! I LOVE Melissa Frances!! These cardstock stickers are SO nice! They are nice and thick, just fabulous!! The paper I used as the main piece is the Urban Lily Snowflake Paper. I used one of the corners, to get more snowflakes. I am just LOVIN’ the Urban Lily!! lol. When I was done with the main pieces of the card I was looking through some embellishments and found my BLING!
I love bling, so I added the row of Hero Arts Rhinestones, Making Memories Snowflake Brads (I love those things) then I found and used my Inkadinkado Merry Christmas! The ribbon is by May Arts, It’s white with a Silver edge! So pretty! I finished it off with some crystal stickles!

I hope you enjoy it! I know there is not much stamping, but it just screams cold winters day to me!
Have a wonderful day!! Thank you so much for stopping by!! HUGS!!

Hello!! I hope you’re all having a great day!! I wanted to do something a little different by pairing my Lizzie Anne Santa with the Cosmo Cricket Hey Sugar paper!

Hello!! Hope you’re all having a wonderful Sunday!! I had SO MUCH fun making this card last night!! It really is out of the norm for me, but I really like it! Usually I don’t go for the super bright prints, but I am just IN LOVE with this Urban Lily paper that I just got in for the store! For this card I used the Celebrate and Forever Papers. I cut out the circle and flower from the Forever paper and the butterfly and background piece is from the celebrate. The gem’s I added are from Karen Foster. I Added a Stampin’ Up! Rhinestone brad on the left and put Crystal Stickles on the butterfly! The stamp is from Stampin’ Up! as well. I hadn’t mounted that set yet, saw it and had to use it. The card just reminds me of a party, so I though the Happy New Years worked well! I know this is a super simple card, but I just had to use that paper!

Hello! Happy Thankgiving Eve!

Yesterday I received a new shipment of new Urban Lily paper!! This paper is just to die for!! I could NOT wait to make something with it, and that’s exactly what I did!! I used the Frost and Blizzard paper on this card. The stamps is by Penny Black. I colored and cut it out so that some of the Holly would come off the main image. I used my Daisy D swirls and dots rubon tape on the left side. The Seasons Greeting is by Inkadinkado; large brad by American Crafts (aren’t they fun!) Ribbon by May Arts! To finish it off I used Frosted Lace Stickles on the Holly and Pearl Glimmer Mist on the card!
I really hope you enjoy it! It felt great to make a card last night. It had been quite awhile!!

I ordered the Fancy Pants Christmas sets this morning! I will contact you all for the funds ect. when they are here! Thank you so much for stopping by!! HUGS!

I made this pumpkin frame not too long ago. It’s pretty straight forward. I bought the frame from Michaels and painted it white. Covered it with the Basic Grey Fruitcake paper for the red! :) I tacky Glue’d May Arts Chocolate Velvet ribbon around the edge’s. The cute pumpkins are from Stampin’ Up!’s Carved and Candlelit set. On the 2 mustard pumpkins, I sponged the edges with pumpkin pie, that’s hard to see in the picture. The rubon is by Basic Grey. Leaves are by Prima and the brads are the FABULOUS Thumbtack brads by Karen Foster!
