Happy Holidays

Good morning all! Today I have two holiday cards that I made. The layout is the same on both cards, as well as the color scheme. These are simple cards, the hardest part was sponging the snowflakes on the bottom layer. I used the Martha Stewart snowflake stamp for the negative, then punched a few out of silver glitter paper (on second card). The sentiment is from Stampin' Up!. I used my Nesties-small scalloped circle die and Marvy Circle punch. Pattern paper is from DCWV, and ink is SU also.

Ohhh, just looked outside, it's snowing at my house! Thanks for stopping by today! God Bless!

November Sister Swap

Happy Wednesday! I am at my daughter's house, but have a minute to post while everyone is resting. This card was for the November swap that my sisters and I do. Terri was our "hostess" , and she wanted us to make cards using the negative of a punch . Her inspiration came from the Clean and Simple Stamping blog. You can see it here.

Honestly, it took me a couple of tries before I came up with something I liked. This card turned out pretty well. Blue is my go to color. I added the paper, ribbon and pearls to cover all that WHITE space.

Card base-Gina K, Pattern Paper-Basic Grey, Ribbon and Pearls-Joann's, Ink-Summer Sky-Memento, Close to Cocoa- Stampin' Up!
