Christmas with Frantic Stamper

For this CAS Christmas card, I started by die cutting the Mistletoe from Frantic Stamper and then coloring it with copics.  I added some red pearls to it also where the berries are on the die.  I die cut the bow from gold cardstock, also with the Mistletoe die.  I die cut the J & Y with the new JOY dies.  I placed the mistletoe joy on a piece of peach cardstock die cut with one of the Pinprick Rectangles dies.  I rounded the corners with a corner rounder on the kraft cardstock to finish the card off.

I'm entering this card in the Addicted to CAS challenge to use bows.

Thanks for stopping by!  

New Inks Coming Soon!!

You all know how much I LOVE the Catherine Pooler inks!  Have you heard that there are EIGHT new colors coming out soon!  8!

Several of the ink colors have already been revealed and more will be revealed this week! You can check out Catherine Pooler's Facebook page to see each new color.  Let me tell you that they are gorgeous!

These inks stamp like a dream, dry quickly (but you can still emboss with them), don't dry blotchy and are vibrant, gorgeous colors!  You won't regret adding these to your collection! :)  Stay tuned for a new release from Catherine that you can find out more about on my blog on Tuesday, November 14th!

Lil' Inker Designs: 25 Days of Christmas Tags

Welcome to day 6 of the 25 Days of Christmas Tags featuring Lil' Inker Designs!  To see all of the fabulous sponsors, prizes and posts, (and more information) please visit Tracey's blog In My Creative Opinion.

Believe Tag

For my tag I started by cutting the base with the largest Anytime Tags 2 Die.  I then die cut the gorgeous Cover Up Die: Geometric Snow and then recut it with the tag die so it fit perfectly on the tag base.  I die cut the beautiful Believe with the die from the Brush Script Christmas Words die set.  I die cut two snowflakes using the Snowflakes dies in gold cardstock and used foam tape to pop them up.  

Thank you for visiting today!  Be sure to stop by Tracey's blog In My Creative Opinion for lots more Christmas tag inspiration and do some shopping at Lil' Inker Designs today too! :)

And, Catherine Pooler is inviting you to spend a little time relaxing this weekend...for a chance to WIN!

Catherine says, "You’re like me. You take care of everyone else. You make cards that brighten the days of others. You carpool, you get food on the table, your work hard, you volunteer. You invest time and energy into making sure the people in your life are happy, healthy and have their lunchbox when they walk out the door.

But who is taking care of YOU?

Even superheroes need a little TLC now and then. I want to make sure that you are doing something special for YOU!

So I’m declaring this weekend officially CP’s Self-Care Weekend and I’m challenging you to take just a little bit (or hey, a lot if you can!) to do something for yourself.

Something that lights you up, inspires you, brings you peace, fills your bucket. AND I’m even going to enter you to win a prize for doing it!

Here’s how it works:

1. Right now, think of an activity that you can do for yourself this weekend. It could be a pedicure, wandering through a bookstore, calling a friend you haven’t talked to in a while, stamping something just for you….it can be all full day (or weekend!!) event or 10 minutes, whatever you can spare. Put it on your calendar to do this weekend!

2. Sometime during the Self-Care Weekend (This Friday, November 3 - Monday November 6 at 1pm EST) post a picture on Instagram or Facebook of you doing your activity. Tell me why it makes you feel amazing. Use the hashtag #CPSelfCareWeekend (and make sure your post is public so we can find it and cheer you on!)

3. Each photo you post will enter you to WIN a gift $25 certificate to our shop! That’s right, you might get rewarded for being good to yourself!"

So...there you have it!  Relax, share & win!  And why you're relaxing why not check out the amazing merchandise in Catherine's store!?  You can shop her fun line here!

Have a great weekend!
