Noel! + Free Gift with Purchase


Merry Christmas!!  It's finally here!  I love this time of the year so much!  I hope you have a wonderful holiday celebration!

Did you know that Noel means Christmas?  So when you sing of the "First Noel", you are singing about the first Christmas, when Christ entered this earth as a tiny baby all of those years ago.  And he grew up and died on the cross for our sins.  Wow!

Jen Carter Love Doves Poinsettia Paper Snow Globe Nested Labels

For this card I created a scene by cutting out a window from a piece of patterned paper in the Love, Doves & Poinsettia's Paper Pack using one of the Nested Labels dies.  I then started layering the scene.  I created the hills by die cutting white glitter paper with the Winterhaven dies.  I use those dies a ton for hills!  I also embossed snowflakes onto the green/blue sky using snowflakes from the Winter Woodland stamp set.  I then placed the tree & deer, die cut using the Snow Globe dies.  The Noel is also from the Snow Globe dies but I first blended Rouge ink on a piece of Premium White Cardstock before die cutting.

Before I leave today I wanted to share a video which is a tradition that I do every Christmas.  I love celebrating Christmas but I also know that this can be a very hard time for some people. This is a song by one of my favorite groups, Casting Crowns.

When your pain runs deep
His love runs deeper still
He has always loved you, child
And He always will

Somewhere in your silent night
Heaven hears the song
Your broken heart has cried
Hope is here, just lift your head
For love has come to find you
Somewhere in your silent night

Lift your head
Lift your heart
Emmanuel will meet you where you are
He knows your hurt
He knows your name
And you’re the very reason that He came

Somewhere in your silent night
Heaven hears the song your broken heart has cried
Hope is here, just lift your head
For love has come to find you
Somewhere in your silent night
Love will find you!

This Christmas is all about how much Jesus loves YOU! He came to this earth for YOU!  I pray you find Him this Christmas season!



Merry Christmas!

Mountains of Sunshine


I've been playing with the new Mountain of Thanks stamp set from Catherine Pooler this week. I actually remade a card that I made 4 of earlier but I gave them all away and then didn't like how the photography looked, LOL, so I redid it!  For this particular version I used brighter ink colors.

Mountain of Thanks Shine on Sunflowers Sketch Plaid Background Redo Purple Jen Carter

I LOVE the new Sketch Plaid Background and here I've stamped it in Twilight ink. I cut a panel down for my scene and used a fun color combo of Rouge, Juniper Mist & Sangria to stamp the mountains & clouds.  I stamped the mountains, sentiment & clouds using the Mountain of Thanks stamp set stamp set & then die cut some of them with the coordinating Mountain of Thanks dies.

For the sun I used one of the circle stamps in the Shine on Sunflowers stamp set.  It was the perfect size to be used with these mountains! To finish the card off I used some red twine to add texture.

New Out West Catherine Pooler Release Available Today!


The latest Catherine Pooler release, Out West is available  today at 9 AM EST!  Yay!  This is such a fun collection of products!

I know I mentioned this once already, but I absolutely love the new Shine on Sunflowers stamp set!

Shine on Sunflowers Sketch Plaid Background Skyscape Mini Cover Plate JDC sized

For this card I stamped the sunflowers from the Shine on Sunflowers stamp set in various colors (Tiara, Sauna & Rouge) and die cut them with the coordinating Shine on Sunflowers dies.  I really like how there are different layers to stamp and how you can change those up!  I used the dies to create layers on top of the sunflowers.  I die cut the Skyscape Mini Cover Plate die in Premium White & kraft cardstock and stamped the sentiment from the Shine on Sunflowers stamp set in Rouge ink.  I used the kraft piece to create a frame and then layered the sunflowers on top, some of them popped up with dimensional tape.

For the background I stamped the Sketch Plaid Background stamp with VersaMark ink.
