Sunburst christmas

It's Monday and let me tell you it feels like it too. My girls ended up having a 2 hour delay because of the roads being bad thanks to the snow and ice. I also was up by 5 am. Today seems to be going fast. Monday and Tuesday are my busy days so fast is good.

Last week I made a sunburst / sunbeam christmas cards using paper from DCWV and stamps from 3 Twenty Crafts. These are fun cards to make. <3

Merry Christmas

Merry christmas- cards that is. Today I made a file folder card. This card is great for a gift card.

I used the envelop punch board to create the card it self. And the sentiment is from 3 twenty crafts.

Jo’s Scrap Shack’s Surprise Blog Hop Day 4

Hello my crafty friends!!

Welcome to our 4th and final day of Jo’s Scrap Shack’s Surprise Blog Hop!

  All week long  the design team and I have been showing stamp sets from new company 3 Twenty Crafts. We hope you have enjoyed hopping along all week with us and enjoyed all the wonderful projects that the design team has created. Remember that all the stamp sets you saw this week will be available to purchase today at 3pm and will be shipping on Monday.

 Today we are showing you the new and awesome stamp set “Tags &Trimmings”

   

 This is what I created using this stamp set.

For my card today I used one of the snowflakes and the sentiment as well as the flourish. I love the flourish. I also did heat embossing on the flourish and the sentiment. On the sentiment I used a embossing pen so I could switch colors between the red and green. I stamped it in black just to have it pop a little more. I think the gold embossing looks pretty too. The dies I used on the mat layers are dies from Stampin Up. I just got into metal dies and only own 2 sets but I love them. 

Jo my friend I love every stamp set you have designed so far and cant wait for more. ;) 3 Twenty Craft Stamps Sets are amazing.

Well my friends that is my project for today and this concludes our week long blog hop. I have had so much fun all week  long and I hope you did too!
