Friendship Preserves Day 5

Hi Stampers!

Today I have a masculine card for you! Yaaaaay!!!!  I think masculine cards are the one project type that everyone is always asking about.  Today's card also has some small components on it....a great way to use up some scraps!


Framelits are just so great!  Not only can you use them to cut out the shape it's designed for, but the negative of the cut out is a great design element as well!


Stampin' Supplies:
Cardstock: Summer Starfruit, Midnight Muse, Early Espresso, Whisper White
DSP: Comfort Cafe
Ink: Midnight Muse
Stamps: Friendship Preserves
Big Shot: Window Frames Framelits, Woodgrain Embossing Folder (love this item!!!)
Other: Curly Label Punch, Linen Thread (Often overlooked in the catalog, but it is a "manly" ribbon!)

Have a great Stampin' Day!  Don't forget about the Online Extravaganza, going on until November 28th!

Thanksgiving Friendship Preserves Day 3

Happy Thanksgiving, Stampers!!!

The big day is finally here!  I can't wait to spend the morning in my jammies, sipping coffee, and watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade!  Then it's off to not one, but two turkey dinners for me and my hubby.  Today I am thankful for family, for friends, for pets, for having a job that allows me to be able to travel, and for having such a fun hobby as stamping!  In honor of Thanksgiving, I have decided to show a Thank You card!  I always have a stash of thank yous on hand because you never know when you will need one.  And who says, you need to send one for a particular reason?  I think some of the best thank you cards are the ones that say, "Hey, I'm thinking about you. Thank you for being my friend!" :-)

Psst! I used Elegant Eggplant on this card.  Not many people use this color, which is sad because it's so beautiful!

Stampin' Supplies:

Cardstock: Soft Suede, Old Olive, Very Vanilla
DSP: Brights Designer Series Paper Stack
Stamps: Friendship Preserves
Ink: Soft Suede, Old Olive, Elegant Eggplant Stampin' Write Markers
Other: Window Frames Framelits, Festive Paper Piercing Pack, Piercing Tool, Piercing Mat, Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder, Basic Pearls, Sponge Dauber

Happy Thanksgiving to you all!
