TCP Winter Release Peeks-Day Three!!

Hey there friends, and fellow stampers...it's time for day THREE of our Winter Release at The Cat's Pajamas! 

Today we are showing off a gorgeous set called Holiday Style...and I think you will agree, especially after you see all my teammate's creations, that this set has SO MUCH potential!

For my card today, I paired the new set with an elegant paper pad from My Mind's Eye called Christmas.....yeah, just Christmas, but it's really elegant and lovely, I swear! I paired the new set with the new Scalloped Duo CutUps to create my peak-a-boo cut out, and then used the Season's Greetings CutUp for my sentiment. For my flourishes, buttons, and cardstock(and the green grosgrain I sorta hid), I used MFT products in Jellybean Green, Electric Red, and Black Licorice. I of course added some red ruffled ribbon and brads as the final touch.

CYCI#139-A Rainbow of Happiness

Hey there kids, and welcome to this week's Can You Case It challenge!! This week's challenge is a RAINBOW theme, and we all know I love color, so this was pretty easy for me. 

For starters, I used some of my favorite My Mind's Eye paper, but it's so old it's impossible to find and it gives me a sad. I think it's called Playdate, but I gotta be honest, this time I'm not getting up to look. I paired it with the Sweet Summer Sentiments  set from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, which I still adore.  My colors are all over the place, and of course I broke out all the usual fan fare for my embellishments.

Well, that is it for me for now! Be sure to go to the CYCI blog to check out all my amazing design team members work, and maybe play along. It's a great challenge, and we love it when you do join us!!

Until next time, 

Be Excellent To Each Other!!
