Paper Sweeties November Release Rewind!


It's Rewind Time! Time to use the new stamp sets with some of 
the older!


The new Sweet Cut set, Stitched Tags #3, has a stocking and a present,
I made a group of shaker tags with the present, and the square die from
Save the Date.
The sentiment is from Mason Jar. Fits perfectly in the window!
Don't you love all the little sequins?
All available in the PS shop!
So is the colorful twine.
All glittery and filled with snow!
Love those sequin snowflakes!
Top 'bow' is cut from colored glitter paper.

Hope you've loved all the inspiration from the team.
And hope you've fallen in love with November's Release!

Paper Sweeties November Release Party!


Welcome to Paper Sweeties November Release Party!
4 Stamp Sets, 3 Sweet Cut Die Sets!
Holiday Happiness!


The scroly yummy frame is from one of the new sets, Days Until.
So is the sentiment, the square frame, and a set of numbers..
I gave the square frame a little pizzaz by masking and stamping a snowflake on each edge.
Not just for Christmas, this set is wonderful for engagements,
anniversaries, just about any special occasion.
Ornaments are sponge inked and are from Holly Days. 
All silver embossed.
Sequins are new too! Marshmallow (Love!)

A Lovely Birthday!


MIM this week features a watercolor technique, using 
PTI's coverplates. Ashley shares her endless talents and creates a beauty of 
a card on Nichole's blog here:


With a large family, my birthday stash is easily depleted, so
here's a birthday card using the Quatrefoil Die.


I followed Ashley's lead, and used re-inkers on Canson watercolor paper.
Vintage Linen flowers, white embossed and also colored with reinkers.


Inside finished with stamped off and masked flowers,
and sentiment from Inside Out: Birthday.

This technique was so much fun to do,
can't wait to try it again!

MIM #229: Fabric Strip Christmas Trees


Melissa Phillips plays with fabric on PTI's MIM this week.
She shows how to create a card using a straw and strips of 
fabric & ribbon. She even throws in some lace.
Melissa is all about the details, and that's my 
favorite thing about card making!


My Christmas fabric stash provided the torn strips.
Ribbons and lace, yes!
The star was in my cut files, not sure what die, but covered it in glitter, and a button.
Tiniest Tags with a tiny tag sentiment.
Buttons, vintage bells, sequins, love!
Used Star Scribbles for the bg, stamped in Soft Stone.
Stamper's Select White Cardstock on a Vintage Jadeite card base.

Plan to make more of these, so much fun!
Thank you Melissa!

Taking my DH in to have shoulder surgery tomorrow, 
and would appreciate all my blogging friends' prayers for 
all to go well. Thank you in advance. Will let you know how 
it goes.
