Christmas in July with Marcia!
Merry July 25th, my friends! My idea of making Christmas cards with Marcia for our July gathering was a good one. I may have had ulterior motives as my quest to get help with all the fiddly sets by Tim Holtz I recently bought from Sizzix's sale ... they are cute, but OY are they time consuming. But who am I kidding... Marcia and I never let anything get in the way of our fun!
We spent lots of time cutting out the pieces with white card stock intending on adding color where needed on our own time. With this Santa it wasn't quite as easy as it sounds! My first card features that process...

A few more Christmas cards!
Good morning, my friends! I got so caught up in water coloring that I forgot to share the second helpings I made for Color Hues using their fun and simple color combo: aqua and white! They sure made beautiful Christmas cards using those Day and Night Betterpress plates from Spellbinders...

Spellbinders' Home for the Holidays July 2024
Welcome back! As promised, I have a few cards lovingly made using Spellbinders' Home for the Holidays collection that just released! I was really happy to be invited to play with a few products from the collection and even happier when their gift included some of their newest Betterpress items!
First up, some very CAS very simple cards to allow all the brilliance of these plates shine ... and you had to know there would be a little grey involved, right? Let's start with their set that includes TWO plates: Night and Day Pines...
