Barbara Housner's Pink Cow

Barbara Housner made this card with our Bridgette cute cow. She made this card for a magazine Simply Sentiments and had it published.  I thought it was a very different on the way she stamped the cow on pink card stock instead of making it black and white.  Thanks Barbara, I have always thought this card was very unique.

Merry Christmas Ornament

Merry Christmas to everyone and hope your holidays have been happy and healthy.

I made this ornament out of the Cuttlebug die cut. I used our stamp for the Merry Christmas. The oval for the saying was cut from Spellbinder oval.  The border on top of the ornament is a Cuttlebug border and below is the Swiss dots from Cuttlebug. The top and bottom were made from Martha Stewart punches.

This is the Cuttlebug die I used for the ornament.

Ruth's Singing Penguins

The background is a little hard to see in the photo, but it is Cuttlebug's snowflake embossing folder.  Ruth is so good at reusing and very crafty.  She reused a insurance folder to make the blue with white stripe octagon from Spellbinders.  She was crafty and used our penguin in a couple of different ways. The penguin on the left was stamped on a reverse stamp and then on a couple of them, she cut off one of their arms and glued it back on so the arm pointed down.  The white cardstock that they are on is tore with glitter glued on it. It is a really cute card, thank you Ruth Fladhammer!

Christmas Tree Stand Up card

This is a real quick stand up card. I embossed the tree with green tinsel embossing powder so it really sparkles. The snowflakes are Martha Stewart punches and the stamps are from

Crackerbox Palace rubber stamps.

The side view of card. It is folded into 1/3rds for mailing so you can use a business envelope. The open side is put on top just to see that I taped it together from the inside. On the card, the white card is glued to the middle of the card so the opening is in the back of the card.

Merry Christmas with Cuttlebug background

The saying is crackerboxrubberstamps.com and the background is from one of the new large Cuttlebug background folders.  The red piece was laying around as a scrap piece and then I embossed the white to go behind it.  Usually, if I do a double layer of the same embossing, I glue the two pieces together and then emboss them, later I will have other examples. The saying and scalloped pieces are cut from Spellbinders.  Merry Christmas.

May the spirit of Christmas

I just can't believe that Christmas is only one week away! I hope everyone is having a great time getting ready for Christmas.  Everything was cut out with Spellbinders.  I did cut off the corners of the snowflake frame.  I embossed the words. I used the Perfect Pearl embossing pen and inked the scalloped edge and used clear embossing powder so there is a pearl look around the words.

Presents under the tree

The card itself is acetate.  This card was very easy and fast to make, not a lot of frills but still looks very nice.  I used our Santa H02106 and colored it in.  The snowflakes and stars are from Cuttlebug.  The blue cardstock is attached to the back of flap of the card and the inside saying is stamped under the Santa image.  The white dots are made with a white marker.
