Papers & Plums

…you can't go wrong with those colors if you ask me. =)
This is another oldie (I do have new cards, I just haven't re-sized them and made them ready for the web yet). I made this quite a while back and I just don't seem to be able to part with it.

This one got me thinking that perhaps I don't always have to make cards that say "happy birthday" or "thinking of  you" or any of those normal sentiments. Perhaps it's ok to use a sentiment that is simply cute. =) Right?

I stamp because it is fun, not because I have to make something useful. If that was the case I probably would not enjoy it very much. Oh well, enough blather. Just wanted to post another post today before I head to bed. I hope to get back again soon.

Thanks for stopping by,

Ok…here's a post…finally. I thought I would wait till December 4th and make it an entire month without posts…but my sister told me to get on the ball now!! =) And the truth is, I do want to continue with my blog but sometimes life just gets busy and all of a sudden an entire month goes by! Thanksgiving has come and gone and now its only 4 weeks till Christmas. How 'bout that. Incredible.

Here's a little something I made a while back and never posted. Anna, I know you've seen it and even have one of these cards, but it's almost Christmas so I thought it would be nice to put that up today.

 The light wasn't very good when I took this photo but you get the idea. It has a fun little detail that my friend Wendy taught me a few years ago. I punched out two circles to create a little window for my Mary and Jesus image. Then I adhered a piece of packing tape, sticky side facing up and poured glitter on top. Tap of the excess and you are left with a shiny, glittery little window of sorts. The stamped image was then adhered behind it. I think the second picture will give you a better idea.

Nice huh. =)

You should all try this out sometime.

Have a lovely week,

Sara
