Happy Anniversary

At the Amuse Studio National Conference I participate in a card swap every year.  It is a great way to get awesome card ideas from fellow Consultants.  The credit for this card goes to Ty Bailey!  I loved her card design - the colors & everything about it!  I was looking for new inspiration for Anniversary cards to send to family & friends and this is just stunning!  

AND Happy Anniversary to Joe & Laura, we hope you have a special day today!

Hello Snow!

Look what arrived in the mail on Wednesday!  I was so excited to see a package in my mailbox from Shari.  It is always something amazing using Amuse Studio products!  Check this out - it is a little wooden hinged fence decorated with the Flaky Friends snowmen along with the Fall in the Forest critters.  She created a scene with the tree tag die and landscape set.  Thank you Shari for once again being so creative - I love it!  

Season's Greetings!

I took an online card class earlier in December and this is one of the cards I made to follow along with the class assignments.  It was fun to get inspiration from the Instructors and then use the supplies that I already own!  

Over the next few weeks I will not have a blog post every day.  I do have a few scheduled posts that will happen automatically during the busy holiday season.  I'll be back in full swing after the first of the year!  

Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of you and thank you for taking an interest in my little ole' card blog!  

Christmas In Our Town

This beauty was made by my Sister in Law, Laura.  Don't you love the layered scene she created with the houses and little sweet shop?  So cute!  

These two Amuse Studio stamp sets are a must have!
