I sent this card to my daughter Amy, who lives in Tennessee, and is down with this nasty sickness, and feeling pretty bad.  Hoping she will be back to normal before Christmas.

This card was created with the set, “Back on your Feet”, pg 92 AC.  Image is stamped on Whisper White CS in Black Memento Ink and colored with our Blends, Smokey Slate, Old Olive and Crumb Cake.  I used the Stitched rectangle Dies to add all the layers.  The DSP is Forever Greenery, pg 148 AC, on a whisper white Thick CS base and embellished with Forever Greenery Gold trim, pg 161 AC.

11. December 2020 · Comments Off on And now for some casing! · Categories: Cards

I cased this card from someone on the internet and I am so sorry that I don’t remember her name.  However, I would like to thank her for her inspiration.

I changed it up a bit but the original idea was not mine.  I used the Curvy Christmas stamp set, and the Curvy Dies.  I used the colors Real Red and Shaded Spruce in the blends and card stock used was also Real Red, Shaded Spruce, and whisper White.  DSP is Christmas Classic and base card is Whisper White Thick CS.

I love this set.  I didn’t buy it when it first came out but I found it is so versatile that I ended up buying it last week and I am using it like crazy.  The set, “Back on Your Feet”, pg 92 AC is all you need if you have a friend or relative that is sick or “Under the Weather”.

This card was a make & take at my Hostess Appreciation Party.    I created this card with the set “Festive Corners”, pg 66 MC and the Poinsettia Dies, pg 16 MC.  I used the Brushed Metallic CS on pg 45 MC for the Pointsettia and Mint Macaron CS for the background.  This is set on a Thick whisper White card base.

Because of the Covid-19 we had our party late this year and outside.  All our make & takes were take homes to complete.  I had tons of FREE Stampin’Up!© stuff for everyone to take home with them, along with lots of good food and beverages.  We always have so much fun at these events and all look forward to them every year.  I am so appreciative of all my customers who are also my good friends.  Friends that I never would have met if it wasn’t for the love of card making and paper crafting.
