unto us....MDS

the beginning of my Christmas layouts...i chose to do one layout as the lead page. my title and embellishments and then do mass pix on the accompanying layouts! super slick to get a bunch of pix together!

supplies: My Digital Studio

inspired by nature

when u hear about someone struggling or having a hard time it nice to quick stamp them a card if you don't have a stash to take from. These two stamps are perfect for 'quick'. The large doily and then inspired by nature's black eyed susans do the trick!

supplies:
paper: peach parfait, island indigo
ink: early espresso, versamark
stamps: inspired by nature, hello, doily
accessories: 3/8" ruffled ribbon island indigo, mini glue dot(to hold on the ribbon)

cereal MDS

See the background here. i took a picture, made it the 12x12 size and then changed the opacity of it so it's faint. Then add the embellishments on top!

supplies: My digital studio

perfect pennant

 guess i shoulda had a lighter background kinda hard to capture the cuteness of this card! if you see the 'ad' on top, that was the initials of the birthday girl in Hannah's class. thought we should personalize it a bit:) I cased this design right outta the big caty in the back somewhere. changed it up a bit of course,but the general layout... not my idea:) ...

supplies:
paper: early espresso, whisper white, pool party, daffodil delight, everyday enchanment dsp
ink: calypso coral, old olive, daffodil delight, pool party
stamps:
tools: pennant punch

hello on this brisk day outside! i've had a busy work week this week painting and hanging decor for others and so i've been in and out... thank goodness for down coats and scarves(and work)! ;)

Today is a big day for our Grandpa Vis. He is in Rochester for open heart surgery today. Even tho others that i've known have gone through this procedure before, i guess i was too young for it to register and for whatever reason i don't remember much of the last time Grandpa went through it?? Along w/ our children we have been praying fervently for God to keep him safe while his heart is being worked on. What an amazing thing... that it can be done. Hard for me to even imagine it.

well on to the card above...simple and CASED right out of the stampin success magazine, we as demos get!
