Happy Birthday!

Hi everyone!

Whew, I didn't know if I would get this post written tonight.  "We're" having computer issues, not with my computer, but.... you know what I mean, right?  :-)

Anyhow, the crisis has been temporarily resolved, and just in time for me to write this post!  Thankfully, it's also the end of the week, so it's time for a card from my very talented sister.

Before, I get to her card, I have a message to my Delaware readers - this weekend I am working up some projects for you so you can meet at my talented sister's for a workshop.  Check back for more details early next week.

Finally, here is her card.  I love the soft prettiness of the 1" Dotted Lace Trim, don't you?

Christmas Swaps Received

Hi everyone!

Hope your week is going well!  I got all my swaps in the mail last Saturday and starting playing with goodies from the new Holiday mini.  I will start sharing with you soon.

But first,  here are the Christmas swaps I received from the first swap I did earlier in July.  Please let me know your favorite.  This time, I will make an exception and tell you my favorite.  I'm not sure how well it photographed, but in person, it is gorgeous!

So, here they are:

The last card is my favorite.  The creator heat embossed in white the bare trees from Lovely as a Tree on vellum.  "Merry Christmas" is also heat embossed in white on the vellum.  On a piece of white cardstock, under the vellum, the single pine tree from Lovely as a Tree is stamped.  The overall effect is beautiful.

Hi stampers!

Hope you all had a good weekend!  It was a busy one at my house!  Lots to do, and rarely enough time!  I'm sure our house is no different than yours, right?

Tonight I am sharing another card I made for a swap.  This time, the theme of the swap is Christmas, using products from the annual catalog.  I dusted off a favorite for last year and updated it a little.  Here is my card:

Pretty Petals Wreath

Hello stampers!

My first Holiday Mini pre-order was delivered yesterday!  I can't wait to dig into that box!  But, I have another swap due next week, so I have to finish that up and get it in the mail first.  I pulled out one product right away to use with on my swaps.  With the Holiday Mini, Stampin' Up! is introducing a new Archival Basic Black ink.  It stamps so nicely!  I know you'll all be adding it to your wish list!

Today's card is another really pretty one from my very talented sister!  My nephew is getting married in less than a month, and even though she's up to her eye balls in wedding plans, somehow she still has time to send me cards to share with you!
