Prepare the Way! ~Sunday Wisdom

2 Comments / Sunday Wisdom / December 5, 2021

In today’s gospel John the Baptist prepares the way of the Lord, thus fulfilling Isaiah’s prophecy. Advent is a time of coming to Christ and it announces to us all that -We matter to God! God will never abandon us. God is constantly calling us back to him with hearts and hands and voices. We must trust that God’s words are true and let go of all our worries and concerns by continually seeking God’s will in our lives.

The Season of Advent offers us an opportunity to welcome the Holy Spirit and to open our hearts to a journey of love.
Advent is a faith journey into which we are all invited. So we have to ask ourselves……..How strong is my faith? What causes me to doubt?

Advent takes us to an all new level, an attitude adjustment if you will. And with this new adjustment comes a change of heart, one that believes and announces Christ’s forgiveness, allowing us all to live our life’s journey more open to God’s grace.

All Things Evergreen-Favorite Things Friday!

2 Comments / Christmas 2021 / December 3, 2021

It is another Fantastic Friday! One of my favorite things about Fridays is that I always have the day off from my regular job, which of course leave me more time to create for my fun job! My card today features the Evergreen Elegance Bundle and while I have posted a few cards using this stamp set, I don’t think I have one using the punch!

So today it is an all things evergreen card featuring the Evergreen Border punch. I began with a Shaded Spruce card base and created the snow drifts by tearing strips of Basic White cardstock.

Supplies

Shaded Spruce CS- 5½ x 8½ (card base), 2 x 11
Basic White CS-4 x 5¼ (2), 2 x 4 (3)
Evergreen Elegance Bundle
Heartfelt Wishes Stamp Set
Stampin’ Seal Adhesive/Liquid Glue

Directions

Score card base in landscape position (aka longer side) at 4¼. Fold and burnish to create card.
Layer 4 x 5¼ Basic White panel to card front and stamp greeting at top in Shaded Spruce ink.
Next tear strips of white cardstock to create snow drifts and layer on card front.
Punch trees with Shaded Spruce cardstock and layer on snow drifts.
Attach white cardstock panel to the inside and decorate as desired.

Creating snow drifts for this card was not only fun, but easy. I hope you enjoy creating your own snowy scene.

Quality Family Time-Favorite Things Friday

2 Comments / Just Because Cards / November 26, 2021

I hope you are all enjoying your holiday weekend. One of my new favorite Thanksgiving traditions is having Thanksgiving at my daughters and then as a family, we decorate her apartment for Christmas. The day is typically filled with decorating fun, a few drinks, dinner and of course games.

When the kids were younger, we would typically decorate the beginning of December and then watch the Christmas movie “Elf”. While they have grown up and moved on, I have not. I still love that movie, but it will indeed need to wait for later in the month.

Here is a picture of my daughter’s Christmas tree. What is your favorite Thanksgiving tradition?

Beauty of the Earth-Thanksgiving

Fall-Halloween-Thanksgiving Cards / November 24, 2021

The Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper pack is perfect for this time of year. Today, I paired this DSP with the Word Wishes Dies to create a simple fall/Thanksgiving card.

I love this paper! It it double sided and some of the sheets are perfect for creating scrapbook borders.

**Beauty of the Earth DSP 155841 $11.50**

I began with a Cinnamon Cider card base and a 3½ x 5¼” piece of Beauty of the Earth DSP. To the right side of the DSP I added a strip of Cajun Craze cardstock.

I used the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine and the Word Wishes Dies to crop Happy Thanksgiving with Black cardstock. This was a super easy card and if you notice it has no stamping at all!
