Ok, technically, Christmas is over, but haven’t you heard of the twelve days of Christmas? They don’t end until January 7th, so there! I really meant to have all these posts done by now, but this time of year is so busy that I fell behind. So here are some ideas for next year.
12 Cards of Christmas- Part 2
Hey again folks, back with more Christmas cards. In these cards, I used a different kind of embossing. Instead of using powders and heat, images are pressed into the paper by using plastic folders that are then run through a machine that impresses the design into the paper.

Happy Holidays folks! When I decided to make my Christmas cards this year, my first thought was, hey, I can save money by making my own! A hundred plus dollars later, I realized -not so much. But now I have a ton of awesome supplies and had a blast making these cards. I also learned…
Bunnies, Tangles and Paintings!
So my awesome sister was down a couple of weeks ago and you know what happens when she’s here right? Massive Craft Week!
