Merry Christmas ...

Hi Stampers :

Happy Monday and Happy Halloween ! 

What a Great  time to post a Christmas card huh? 

I made this card over the weekend . When I started making this card I really had no idea  what I wanted to do . What I did know was  that I wanted to use the  stamp set Hand Penned Holidays 

• (w)# 124310
• (c)# 124312 

along with the stamp set called Autumn Days

• (w)# 115452
• (c)# 120000

I kept adding things  1st  the  1/2"Chantilly  Crochet Trim  #118480 then it  lead  to adding a bow  in the top corner .

I used my sponge and sponged Crumb Cake ink # 121030  all over the  Whisper White BUT it still needed  something else..

HUMMMMMM

Then sprayed  the Shimmer paint Champagne Mist #116806 with the Rubbing Alcohol . BUT it needed  something alittle darker so I added  a spary of the Log Cabin Smooch Spritz # 119921.

Then that led to adding  my favorite Basic Pearls # 119247   to the  lace trim.

I took the photo  of the side  cause  the tiny pearls on the "Merry Christmas " swirls  didn't show up to good in the 1st photo.

  I can't  believe  how beautiful this card turned out  with no idea where it was going... sure do love it  when that happens ( which isn't to often ) .

Guess this cards gives new meaning to a layered card  LOL!

Card stock colors :

• Crumb Cake #120953
• Early Espresso#119686
• Old Olive #100702
• Whisper White #100730
  

Have a Marvelous Monday friends !

Until later.. Happy Stampin!

Dawn's Sunday Share 10-30-2011

Hi Stampers :

Happy Sunday Friends !

Jessie took her  2nd part ( written ) of her state boards this past Tuesday and she passed YAHOO!!    She is offically a Lisenced Cosmetologist  and has  a 2nd interview this upcoming week  at a local salon . So very proud of her !

The really awesome part is that she was issued her license right after she found out she passed  . Unlike me when I got my license  I had  to wait 6-8 weeks  for the paper  license  to show up in the mail box . 

She will still get  the paper  license  but it's really nice  to get  it in your hands  as soon as she passed plus its like a regular drivers license and that's  pretty cool !

Jessie snapped this  cute squirrel in our back yard . Kinda looks like he was possing just for her .

Since tomorrow is Halloween  I thought I would  share 1 more  Halloween card with you  for 2011 . This card was sent to me  from Kathleen Hurley  and it is sooo adorable . Thank you so much Kathleen . Love it !

Time  to  break out the glitter and  start making some Christmas cards :) OH how I love Christmas time ..

I used the Stamp set  in the  2011 Holiday Mini  HERE called

Christmas Lodge

• (w) # 123767
• (c) # 123769

I used the Early Espresso  card stock# 119686   for my base 

( 4 1/4"x 11"  scored at 5 1/2"

and then layered the Crumb Cake card stock # 120953 on top of that

Crumb Cake# 120953  card stock#  cut at 2 1/2" " x  3 1/2"

Layered a strip of the Victoria Crochet Trim # 118481 behind  that layer .

Along the side I used the Brand new 3/8" Quilted Satin Ribbon in Early Espresso # 124104.

I used 2 pieces of the ribbon &  lined them up next to each other to make it wider then added a bow with the same ribbon .

The greeting is from the stamp set called

You're Cherished # 123684

You can get this set  for FREE when you purchase  (2) Simply Sent  kits  click HERE to view the flyer .

Added Basic Pearls #119247

I then sponged all the edges  of all the pieces  with Early Espresso ink # 119670 .

I used  the 2-way Glue pen # 100425 and  then added Dazzling Diamonds # 102023.

Have a Wonderful Wednesday  friends !

Dawn's Sunday Share 10-23-2011

Hi Stampers :

Happy Sunday Friends !

This past Friday we had our Harvest party at our church ( Circus Themed )  and we dressed up as clowns . Not scary clowns  but the sweet and innocent kind  (well maybe not so innocent  either) .

We had alot of fun  with all the kids Plus our friends Linda and Steve  dressed up as a lion  and the lion tamer . Cute huh? 

Then there is Andrew  which we gave him a new name "Andrea" . He was so funny . At one point  during the evening we seen his wife  applying Lipstick to him OH my goodness  what a HOOT!

Look at these Fabulous Cupcakes Linda's Daughter ( Whitney) made . I love the Wolf  ones . Whitney said the wolf's mouth is actually a Marshmellow  that was cut  in a V  and then inside  was lined with a fruit roll up . Pretty clever  and oh so Yummy !

This past week Jessie also got a new piercing ( See  photo above  you may have click on photo to view her new piercing)  which is called the Monroe.

Did you know : The Monroe is  on the left hand side and the Madonna is on the right hand side . Hummmm I wonder  where a Cindy Crawford  goes ? Just sayin :)

By the way if  you look closely at the 2nd photo of us with Andrew he has a Monroe too LOL ! Alittle higher compared to Jessie's but  it's there Hee! Hee!

Here is my Sunday Share video for you .. It's a funny one today.

  Hope you get a chuckle .
