Merry Christ-Moose

This is another image from the set I picked up at Wal-Mart. I have a friend with a great sense of humor and I know she'll love the image of a moose in leg warmers. You just can't help but smile looking at this image.

Simple Christmas Card

Here is another card using a discontinued set from last year. I bought some things from the discontinued list and this is the first time using them. I actually really like how this turned out and it was a quick and easy card to create. If you are into mass producing cards and want something quick and easy this could work.

Supplies Used: Stamps: Block Party; Paper: Whisper White, Real Red, Glorious Green and background paper; Ink: Kaleidacolor Fruitcake; Other: Ribbon and dimensionals.

Glad Tidings

I've started making my Christmas cards and this is the first time I've used this set. It was a discontinued set last year and I never got the chance to use it. I think this would be a good card to give to a man since the colors I chose are very masculine.

Supplies Used: Stamps: Glad Tidings and Snow Flurries; Paper: Whisper White and Basic Gray; Ink: Going Gray, Basic Gray, Brilliant Blue and Silver; Other: Cuttlebug Embossing Folder, dimensionals and ribbon.

Warm Wishes

I saw this cute stamp set at WalMart and just had to get it. The stamps are clear polymer and there were about 6 stamps in the set and for less than $3.00 I had to have it. I will be using this as a Christmas card but the images aren't necessarily just for the holidays. Since I didn't use the traditional Christmas colors, this card could be used for almost any occasion.
Supplies Used: Stamps: Holiday Clear Stamps; Paper: Whisper White, Pretty in Pink, Bashful Blue and background paper pack; Ink: Basic Black, Close to Cocoa, Creamy Caramel, Blush Blossom, Pretty in Pink and Bashful Blue; Other: Oval Punches, Oval Scallop Punch, M/S Ribbon, stickles and buttons.

Simply Sent Card Kits

I had never tried Stampin' Up's Simply Sent card kits and since I never seem to have enough time to stamp I thought I would try one of the kits to see if I would like it. Everything you need to create several cards comes in the kit except adhesive and a paper cutter (you don't need to use any stamps). For adhesive I like to use double sided tape, but you can use glue sticks, SNAIL adhesive, glue pens, etc. The kit comes with instructions to create the cards and you can add your own elements if you want. It was easy to create the cards but to be honest I really enjoy the stamping part of card making. I did like how the cards turned out and for a quick project it was great.

Supplies Used: Simply Sent Card Kit - Rock Star; Stamps: Wow Flowers and Upsy Daisy; Ink: Basic Black and Old Olive; Other: Rhinestone Brad and stickles.
