These Three Gifts...

Hello!

So glad you stopped by today!

It's time for a new challenge at The House that Stamps Built! Since it's a 'fifth week', the challenge is 'Anything Goes'.

The holidays are coming on so quickly, that I'm trying to get a start on my Christmas cards.

I really love it when a beautiful card can be created using some pretty paper and an elegant sentiment. That's what I did today for our challenge.  Here is what I made today, using this Repeat Impressions Stamp:

2103-M These Three Gifts

 The sentiment was embossed in gold, matted with gold, and adhered to a piece of pretty paper.

That panel was matted with gold, a gold ribbon was added, and the panel was adhered to the card front.  Does not get any easier than that!  Thank you Wendy, for such a gorgeous,

meaningful sentiment. 

Now, it's your turn!

Come on over and join us in our Anything Goes Challenge!

You don't HAVE to use Repeat Impressions Stamps, but if you do, you have double the chance of winning!  I can't wait to see your beautiful cards this week, for our Anything Goes challenge!

The First Noel

Happy Friday!

Hope that you all had a safe and blessed Thanksgiving!

Here is a pretty card that I made using products from Crafter's Companion.

I like the nice, clean lines on this one. 

The image was colored and the sky was sponged with distress inks, and water dropped and smeared.  Hope you like it!

Here are the products that I used:

Sheena A Little Bit Festive EZ Mount Stamp Set 'The First Noel'

Crafter's Companion 'Opulence' 11 x 17 Card Pack

Here is the sketch that we were given to create with:

  

  

I didn't flip this one, but only because I didn't leave myself room enough for the vertical sentiment I had all picked out!  Sigh....best laid plans!

Anyhow....

Here's what I created, using these Repeat Impressions Stamps:

1105-E Thinking of You

2708-M Pine Branch

Festive Wonder...Merry Christmas!

Happy Friday!

I'm back with another beautiful card that uses products from Crafter's Companion.  

Isn't it nice to find that perfect patterned paper and die?  An elegant card in record time, right?

Look how pretty this is.... I used gold cardstock for the base and sentiment, added a ribbon around the patterned paper, and adhered that panel to the card base.  Voila! Easy Peasy, and so pretty!

Hope you like it!

Mr. and Mrs.

Happy Friday!

I thought Friday would never get here.  It seems like such a long time since I've posted a project for Crafter's Companion.  Thanks for your patience. 

My Mister has had some health issues,so I took the month of October to deal with appointments and such.  He has some surgery in early December - hopefully, I'll be able to work around that.

We were able to  squeeze in a few days last week to drive to Va. and see our daughter and her family.

We had a great visit - got to take our granddaughter to Disney on Ice! She was so enchanted with all of the beautiful princesses, lights, snowmen, etc.  It was fun.

We needed a few wedding cards, so I got out some fun new products and mass produced this card:

Aren't these gorgeous?  The Mr. and Mrs. die simply cuts like butter and falls right out of the die, and this cardstock is amazing!  If you don't own any other items from Crafter's Companion, you need

this beautiful Cardstock...oh, and the die...oh, and I LOVE their Kraft cardstock!

Hope you like them!
