Yes, that’s a Christmas card you see…and yes, I am one of those people who “try” to make a New Year’s Resolution stick. One of mine was to make a Christmas card each month of this year…and I am sliding through on the last day of January!!! WooHoo!

I also wanted to make sure that the card I posted for you uses all current items that are available in the Annual Catalog. I used the Stampin’ UP! Tidings and Trimmings, the Stitched Rectangle Dies, and the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper. I finished it off with some Gilded Gems- they are along with the Matte Black Dots probably my favorite embellishments!

I was inspired by Jen’s idea at Freshly Made Sketches #520 .

I was also inspired by the photo challenge at The Card Concept #167. The Christmas theme, the greenery, and the colors were all and inspiration for me.

I also made some cards with a clean and simple design for my Paper Pumpkin subscribers using the Stitched Rectangle tree and the sentiment from the November 2021 Gifts Galore. I still made one using the current Tidings and Trimmings stamp set, too!

The Stitched Rectangles are awesome for making trees! Remember the Floating Strip Technique I made a video for? It is a fun technique- if you didn’t see it, take a look…

Thanks for buzzing by friends…

Just driving by with a card made with the Stampin’ UP! Sale-a-bration stamp set Driving By inspired by Jaydee’s sketch at the Paper Players #575.

I tried to get a groovy faded tie-dye vibe by coloring a bit splotchy with my Granny Apple Green on my van. My little flower was in the Hippo Happiness stamp set.

I layered the Layering Vellum map pattern over a piece of Basic White and put a stitched rectangle frame around it.

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…

1/29/22- WOOHOO! I was picked as a Cut Above this round at the Paper Players #575!

Thank you, Jennie:)

A ladybug becomes a bee…yea for me…CindyLeeBEE!

I made a fun fold to show off the cute bee. Take a look:

See how perfect that bee looks when it goes back into the Ladybug Builder Punch after the strips are added to the black body? You can just snip them off but the punch works really well.

Bring the daffodil from the Sale-a-bration Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper into the inside with the Stampin’ UP! Daffodil Daydream Stamp set.

Measurements: Card Base: 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored in 2-3/4″ on both sides on the 11″ side, Basic Black strips on front: (3) 1″ x 4″ and scrap for punch and bee, DSP: (3) 3/4″ x 3-3/4″ and 1-3/4″ Circle, Crushed Curry embossed panels: 2-1/2″ x 4″, Very Vanilla inside: 4″ x 5-1/4″

I used Jen T’s clean and simple sketch at Freshly Made Sketches #519 this week with the Stampin’ UP! Wildlife Wonder stamp set. I am so happy to have a really great masculine stamp set with versatile sentiments with a fun font in the January- June 2022 Mini Catalog.

I LOVE the sketchy detail on the stamps in this set! I stamped a circle from the Stampin’ UP! Watercolor Shapes stamp set with So Saffron ink before I stamped the wolf image.

I thought Cinnamon Cider would be a good color for my wolf (instead of gray) so I used a retired Cinnamon Cider woodgrain pattern DSP on the card base. To make the Cinnamon Cider stand out, I mounted it on a piece of Basic White and then used Cajun Craze as the card base.

I am not sure what occasion this card will be for…so I just added a little more color to the inside with DSP, and I will add another sentiment when I need it:)

Thanks for stopping by, friends…

I decided to play along with Claire’s Winter Animals theme at the Paper Players #574 this week.

It was easy for me pick up my Stampin’ UP! Grassy Grove with the cute little doe and fawn. The Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper has a beautiful blue pine grove pattern in it.

My eyes saw a hue of gray in the DSP so I bordered my white forest die cut with Basic Gray before I adhered it to the Misty Moonlight card base.

Some retired snowflakes scattered finished off the wintry scene.
