Santa's List

Hi there and happy Monday!  Hope you had a good weekend and you're keeping warm.  We definitely had frost on the ol' pumpkin around here.  Can you believe that Thursday is Thanksgiving?  Yikes!  Then comes the craziness of the Christmas season.  Speaking of which, I have a Christmas card for you today.  The Night of Navy portion with the Santa image flips up to open - a fancy fold.  This fancy fold was inspired by one of the swaps received from Kathy Morales (at least I think it was hers) at a Demonstrator shoebox swap this past summer. 

All Stampin' Up! supplies used unless otherwise noted. 

Stamps: Santa’s List 

Paper: Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Vanilla

That's it for today.  Thank you so much for stopping in for a visit!

Fall Regional Swaps

Hi there!  Hope you had a great weekend!  Mine was awesome!  Had a family reunion on Saturday, which was a lot of fun seeing all the cousins - and their kids and now grandkids!  We had a good time despite the rain and drop in temperature.  Sunday was our Card Buffet and that was fun, too.  We have the best friends/customers!  Thank you all for coming and supporting us!
Well, today I'm sharing some of the swaps received at the Fall "Regional" held September 28th (organized by Sally Nusbaum).  The one above is by Denise Wisdom.  I love how she added some ribbon to make a "scarf" for the snowman!  So clever. 

Isn't this file folder made by Cheryl Renth the cutest?  It was made with our new Envelope Punch Board.  So glad I bought one - love it!  The snowflakes were cut out with our Festive Flurry Framelits found in the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.

Ann Nahm was the designer of this understated beauty!  The Glimmer paper star really adds a nice sparkly finishing touch!

While we're on Christmas trees, this one is by Kathy Morales.  She embossed around the focal image using a Labels Framelit - not sure if you can see that.  It's an elegant looking card with a vintage feel.

That's it for now.  Come back tomorrow for some more swaps.  Must start getting ready for a stamping weekend with other Demonstrators at the Lake of the Ozarks.  This is another fun event organized by Sally Nusbaum.  Woohoo! 
Thanks for stopping by today!

Wetlands

Hi there!  This is a scheduled post while I'm stamping and chillaxing at the girls getaway retreat!  I know I'm having fun!  lol
This card was CASE'd from one that was made at Sally Nusbaum's Demo Shoebox Swap back in June.  I believe it was Kathy Morales' swap card, but not totally sure about that.  LOVE this stamp set so this card was a no brainer to be in our Card Buffet line-up!  We're always looking for masculine cards, right?
