ICS BLOG HOP-CHRISTMAS SCOTTIE THANKS!

 

Welcome to the last Inspire, Create, Share Blog Hop for 2022!!! Wow! Where did the year go?? It was a good one after a few rough ones! And I surely have a lot to be thankful for! Fortunately, this month we are sharing cards of thanks! As our    Fall 2022 Mini Catalog winds down, I'm trying to get the most out of it!

Here's my card:

Now this is a very simple thank you. It's designed for a generic winter "thank you" card! I know there are so many Christmas thank you's going out, but I needed a change from all the Christmas stuff! lol Just for a day though! I love ALL things Christmas!!!

This Christmas Scottie stamp set and the Scottie punch have done me well this season & is one I will not get rid of! My eldest son is named Scott! Can't let this one go! lol I got to use all the little scottie dogs on this one!  Here's the inside! Although the punch is retiring soon so be sure to get yours if you'd like one!!

The inside! Ruff!

I like the Alphabest Stamp set with the coordinating Best Label Punch for sentiments. It's nice & small & good for card fronts! It spreads out across both sides of this gatefold card. Just thought it lent a level of excitement! lol Hope this one doesn't go away!

Other items used are Celebrate Everything 12x12 DSP, Fine Sparkle Adhesive Backed Gems, Pool Party Sheer Ribbon. 

I wish you all the most blessed and happy Holiday season! Whether you celebrate Christmas or Hanukkah or something else, may it be filled with family, friends & joy.

ICS BLOG HOP-MY FAVORITE PUNCH-SCOTTIE DOG!

Happy fall! Here on our Inspire, Create, Share Blog Hop this month we are looking at our favorite punches! They can be quick and easy, and there are a ton of great ones from which to choose! So much fun to choose!

Here's my card:

So the punch I'm featuring this month is the Scottie Punch! This one is near & dear to my heart as my son's name is Scott, and as his mom I've always called him Scottie! We aren't scottie collectors per se, but this one is so darn cute!!! lol It coordinates with the Christmas Scottie stamp set-yup-it'll be my Christmas card set this year!! lol And even best it comes as a bundle in the                               July-December 2022 Mini Catalog so you save 10%! A bit early for Christmas I know, but I just couldn't wait to play with him!!! lol

So here I did a simple book bind fun fold card!  Now the DSP we need to discuss!!! So it's from the Celebrate Everything DSP pack that is available only to our hostesses!!! This one is in the same catalog as the Scotties!! On your way towards this Hostess set!  There are 48 sheets of amazing different designs!!! We sometimes forget about these with all the excitement of the new seasonal DSP packs! But I love the idea of red/white/black!!! And the print is not overwhelming for this card!

It's also a peek-a-boo card-at least that's what I call it! lol The                   Layering Circle Dies work perfectly for this little guy! He "peeks" out when the card is closed & when opened he's still there! lol

Other materials used on the car are the Deckled Rectangles, Gingham Ribbon & the oh-so-fun-and-fabulous Pearlized Enamel Effects Basics (don't overlook these!!! Praying for so many more colors in the future!!!)

So next up on our hop is Cheryl! So go hop over to her blog by clicking on her name here or the icon below!! Then keep going!!! Enjoy our punch treats!!!

Happy Stampin'!
