Christmas and Holiday Cards

Howdy, All, 

As you can see I made a lot of holiday cards using a bunch of different techniques in 2016. I was really excited to have gotten so many done, for a craft sale and several commissions, as well as for my friends and family. There are a few tags towards the end.

One technique that stands out is this one from The Frugal Crafter which creates a cool marble effect with photo paper. 

I'll try to eventually edit this with more product information, but the some of the highlights are the Vintage Ornaments II from Papertrey Ink, Christmas Flourished Verses from Our Daily Bread, Star of Light and Starlight from Stampin' Up, Season's Greetings from Mama Elephant, and Color Layering Christmas Tree from Hero Arts. I got the fun cat stamp from the stamp show in October and am struggling to remember from what vendor. 

Happy Holidays in April! Just in time for Easter!

4 Months Later...

Well, Everyone, I disappeared again. I am not sure why I have had so much trouble keeping up with this blog. I have photos of everything I make, but I guess I just want to make things rather than post anything! Maybe this will be a New Year's Resolution!

I have just posted all of the cards, other paper crafts, and jewelry I have made since July (25 posts!). In order to get everything posted in a timely fashion, I've arranged cards by theme or category rather than post solely by individual crafting session. I am still hoping to go back to all of the posts from this year and add more information. Thank you for your patience! If you have any specific supply questions, send me an email or leave a comment. 

I am very excited about the commissions and Christmas crafts I am about to start making now! I may not have time for every commission, but if anyone was thinking about holiday cards or gifts, please send me an email.

In the meantime, here are my favorite things I've made in the past 4 months:
