New For Valentines & Four-Panel Card

 We have some new stamp sets and dies for Valentine's Day.
Here are the stamp sets that are new for us.


The picture below is showing both sides of two sets of dies.
I'm showing the back of the package so that you can see a sample
of what the die actually does.  


Here is the back of another die package.  
The die cuts the words "Happy Valentine's Day."


Here are some more fun word-dies.


You know Rachel has lots of ideas to fill the "O" in each word!
Rachel created this card using the "LOVE" die.

Six weeks ago, I lost a precious sister-in-law 
to pneumonia and septic shock.
She had created beautiful cards!
Here are a few of them that she was 
working on for Christmas this year.


I created this card (using one of her card-ideas)
in memory of her.


It stands on its own little legs.


(card opened up)

We lovingly call it "Lois' Four-Panel Card."
I used these fabrics on the card.

Wishing you a blessed New Year!

Scraps, Holiday Blooms, & Whimsical Blooms

Not sure what to do with your scraps of paper?
Here's an idea for you.


Rachel created this card using scrap papers leftover from Shop Hop.
Here is the inside of the card.


 She used a sentiment from this stamp set for the inside of the card.


She embellished the card with this fabric.

#260

Rachel also used her scraps of paper on these cards.


She used this die set, called Holiday Blooms 
(from Spellbinders), to create the flowers.


We have two jar stamps with matching dies at the Farmhouse.
Rachel used the top set for her cards to create the vase-look.


Here is another card made with the Holiday Blooms set.


She used the jar sets on these cards as well.


(insides of cards)

The flowers on these cards came from the 
stamp/stencil/washi-tape/die sets
called Whimsical Blooms.


The flowers were stamped, colored using stencils,
and cut out with the matching die.
There is also washi-tape that matches the die perfectly.
If you've never seen the washi-tape sets,
be sure to check them out the next time you visit,
and let us show you what all you can do with them!

Rachel and I want to wish all of you a 
very blessed holiday season! 
Merry Christmas!
