Playing Cards with Friends - New Year, new to you!

Happy New Year, my friends!  I hope you've enjoyed your holidays!  

I have a wonderful friend joining me to start the new year of Playing Cards with Friends!   Nancy Thomas blogs at Creative Palette, is the leader of the pack at The Cats Pajamas, designs for Purple Onion, and I have even had the pleasure of meeting her for reals - a little stop in Alabama on one of our many road trips!  

We're kicking off the New Year with something that is NEW - or never before used - to our stash! That's it!  Real simple to do - we needed simple after the holidays!

I had a few products from The Stamp Market that hadn't seen any love yet - and it was time for non-Christmas colors, too!  Ready?  here you go...


Starting a new year with gratitude is truly a great place to start!
Here's a little closeup - I kind of loved that my embossing was 'less than perfect!'


Kindness Matters, and Flower Flurry [sorry this was a clearance purchase and it's no longer available] - embossed on vellum in white.  A flurry of PF jewels, and a scalloped edge from an older W&W die, and a sweet little bow filled up that bare corner perfectly!

What a way to combine the old favorites with what's NEW in my stash!  I can't wait another minute to see what Nancy has added to her crafty stash recently!  Let's all go over, shall we?  

Thank you, Nancy, for accepting my invitation to Play Cards!  It was a really fun way to get our New Year started - and NO hangover!
