Plaid Perfection

This is not quite the card I had in my mind....but once I saw this Shiny New Embossing folder and GOLD Foil, I was distracted!  Squirrel!!  Seriously no Squirrels here......Plaid, Gold, Shaded Spruce and Real Red ribbon!  Simple yet stunning card.

This Bundle has a PUNCH......love to Punch the paper or Stamp a Tree and Punch.  SO many ideas and options.  The Embossed Gold Foil pulls the Gold Striping out of the Plaid papers.  The Stamparatus  makes this Beautiful Sentiment nice and saturated on the Shaded Spruce card base.

This Ribbon is easy to tie and Holiday Rhinestone Jewels add some more Bling as a Tree Topper!

Sweater Weather

Today I am showing the Beauty of this Winter Knit embossing folder on Blueberry Bushel card stock.  The detail is amazing!  The Plaid Cup looks so Cheerful and the Sentiment fits!

I added the Shaded Spruce ribbon and tied a Bow.  A Jingle Bell is added with some twine.  This card would have to be HAND Delivered due to the Bell or Slipped in a Gift package.

This Plaid paper is so versatile and the Gold Stripe is Beautiful!!

Cozy Cocoa Chrstmas

The Holidays are sneaking up FAST!  Have you started your cards?  Sounds like this rainy weekend will be a good time to get 

Cozy and Crafty!!

This pattern from the Night Before Christmas paper stack begged for a cup of Christmas on the Front!  I added a Candy Cane and some Whipped Cream.  Try to not use Puff Paint on Dark Colored card stock as the color bleeds a bit.  Still cute but a bit tinged with red!  Peppermint Whipped Cream!

I adhered the Designer paper, stamped the sentiment and then embossed with the Winter Knit 3D Embossing folder.  Tomorrow......a solid color card base to show off this Folder again!

A True Craftsman

I come form a Crafty family.....but man my Neighbor was more than Crafty....he was a Chair Caning Master!!  Sadly he passed away last week and his Funeral is today.  Revelle Lee Chair Caning has been a staple in my cul de sac for many years.  Long before I lived here.

Oh and did I say he was BLIND!  Yes that is amazing how he conquered so many obstacles and had his own business! 

Here is an article from 2015.

https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/article7591073.html

Both of the workers in this story passed before Revelle and a Girlfriend since I have been his neighbor.  His latest hired hand became his caretaker and plans to carry on the Business.  Bless you Steve for stepping in and allowing Mr. Lee to do what he loved until the end.
