Played around a little with some very pretty brads from Eyelet Outlet last night.  Hope you like my card!

 I wanted to share one of my Thanksgiving cards.  Seems like I forget to post Thanksgiving with preparing for Christmas!  I sometimes feel like Thanksgiving is a rush to get through so we can get on with Christmas.  

 I love to make mini albums.  It usually takes a few weeks or so for me to make an album. With working full time and enjoying my grandkids it might take me longer then most to finish an album.  I like to do my own thing with them and make lots of fold outs and hidden pockets!  Here is just the cover to one of my favorites.

 Now that I have all my Christmas done and wrapped I can take some time to post here on my blog.  I so enjoy making Christmas cards and sending them off to family and friends.  I hope you enjoy this card, it's from my heart!  

 Playing around making Christmas cards last night!  I had made this card a few weeks ago and decided last night it needed some bling on it!  I hope you like it as much as I do!

 Last night I worked on one of my favorite and most fun projects!  I love making gift card holders or what I like to call them is tea bag holders!  I have lots of friends that drink tea and this is a perfect gift for them!

After using the die from Sweet Sentiment Stamps, for the base of my holder I used a heavy red card stock.  Then I cut out accent cuts in Christmas green heavy card stock and attached it to the front, back and flip opening side.  Next I found in my paper stash a lite colored snowflake card stock, cut out accents and before attaching to the back and fronts I added Eyelet Outlet Christmas tree washi tape to the left side.  I was careful to make sure it lined up all the way around my project.  On the flip closure part of the project I added three way cute Eyelet Outlet Christmas Gnomes!  I think they are just the cutest little guys ever!  

Christmas Cards are all done! Yay!

Today I am happy to say my Christmas cards are done and ready to mail! I made what I like to think is a simple but elegant card! I made my card on white heavy cardstock. Use a die to cut out the center and put assorted colors of nighttime blue behind the die cut. I used my favorite Eyelet Outlet Pearl bling on the front left side and then after stamping on the front I used one of the beautiful Eyelet Outlet Snowflake bling and it finished the look of my card.
