Got Patterns?

Wow!  Do I have a bunch of patterns here?  Yes!  Yes, I do!  When I got the Top Note Bigz Die out to make Rudolph, I decided to play a little more.  I made this card using the die as the card base.  Oh, how cool is this?

I decided to use more of my Jolly Holiday designer series paper.  I punched out an ornament in very vanilla, and punched out another one in the designer series paper.  This made the ornament sturdy, so I could tie the gold cord around it.  Love it!

Materials used are stampin’ up! Unless noted

Paper: old olive, very vanilla

Ink: cherry chobbler

Accessories: gold cord, 1/4" OLD OLIVE GROSGRAIN RIBBON, TOP NOTE BIGZ DIE

I filmed two videos today.  Whew!  I will post the YouTube video for the gift card purse the next time.  I had fun making that one.  It takes about 15 minutes to make one of the purses, so I had to edit it a lot to get it down under 11 minutes.

In addition, I filmed the first of three videos for my basic brayer class.  I found out my camera doesn't have a big enough SD card, because I ran out of memory before I got down.  I had to download what I taped to my computer and finish the rest.  I decided to buy a 16 gb card, so I don't have to do that again.  I will be able to use this card in my new camera, once I buy it...hee hee!  Still saving for that one.  I hope to get it by Christmas, so my photos are awesome!

Christmas Card 4

Today is going to be HOT again, so we are spending the afternoon at the pool.  My friend, Terese is coming over with her two boys, so it will going to be fun for me, Tate and Tanner.

Here is the fourth card for my Christmas card workshop.  I used the Delightful Decorations stamp set that matches the ornament punch.  Love it!  There is gold cord running down to hold the ornament.  I hope you can see it.  Just one more card to show you tomorrow to complete the workshop.

Tonight is walk to school night, so we will be visiting Tate & Tanner's school.  Oh, that is weird to know that Tanner will not be home with me all day.  Kindergarten is full day, so I will have all day to schedule all my volunteering, cleaning, stamping, and shopping.

We found out yesterday that Tate is going to have a different teacher than we requested.  Mrs. Serrano retired during the summer.  His teacher will be Mrs. Fischer.  We met her already, because we stopped by school this week to turn in Tanner's physical paperwork for Kindergarten.  She is really nice.

JOY

I went to my friends again last week and created this beautiful JOY card.  I have this stamp set Delightful Decorations by Stampin' Up! and the matching punch.  Love my punches!  I love, love, love the chocolate with the red and green.  Beautiful!  Kim (my friend) said she saw this on someone's blog, but didn't remember who.  Thank you someone!  Love your card!

Happy Holidays!
