I have been meaning to make an Easel Card for a couple weeks now. The basic card is cut 4” x 12” and scored at 4, 6, and 8”. You can find a tutorial at Splitcoast Stampers for the quick and simple cards here: Easel Cards Here’s a close-up of my card… doesn’t it look like fun? The close-up shows detail of the new edge and corner punches which will be offered for sale by Stampin’ Up! in January, aren’t they fun?

This one also uses the Serene Snowflake Stamp From Stampin’ Up!. Both stamps are featured on the under $10 page of the Idea Book & Catalog.

I cannot imagine how a pretty shiny metal container can get lost in my Stamp Room… but then again, you haven’t seen it have you? (hee, hee… those who have will definitely understand!) The First Wednesday Card Club of Jacksonville really enjoyed making this card during our club meeting this month. The Pretties Blossom was dyed with a sponge dauber and Apricot Appeal Classic Ink, and really looked quite stunning against the Nuoveau Chic ...

This year has really flown by, hasn’t it? It won’t be long until Christmas is here.. Yikes! With our children overseas, and family out of state.. Gift Cards and handmade items are going to be the gifts of choice this year! Segway to the Gift Card Holder: Just playing around with scraps and rejects on my very cluttered stampin’ room table… and trying to come up with a swap for last weeks’ Downline Team meeting and this guy appeared!
