SU More Merry Messages Christmas Card

Monday Monday, can't trust that day. Hi Stamping buddies, ugh I work the late shift today unfortunately. BRRRR! It is below zero this morning and I am up early. I just put some Breakfast Burritos in the oven. I almost have my 6 Stamp-A-Stack cards done but I have been working on my meeting cards for my downline meeting Tuesday night. I am so mad as I keep losing things. I know, I think I am losing my mind. Now don't laugh, I have lost a clear stamp from More Merry Messages, a Pacific Point marker, the Love and Sympathy stamp set, and a framelit from Apothecary Accents Framelits.  I have turned my office/stamp room upside down and cleaned off my table and my paper cutter table where I put a lot of scraps and found none of these things. I burn my paper and all the scraps from stamping and yesterday after I burned the day before I went out to the burn barrel and ran my fingers through the ashes to see if my framelit had fallen in either of my two wastebaskets and nope. All I found were black sticky ashes. YUCK! I knew the stamp would burn but the framelit wouldn't. Anyway, now I have to rebuy all of it again. GRRRRR! Yes, the whole group of Brights Markers, the Whole Apothecary Accent Framelit set, 2 whole stamp sets. ARGH!!!! I am so mad!

Anyway, this is a card I stamped that hunting weekend and I love how it turned out with that beautiful verse as the main image. I had some old Pear Pizzazz seam binding and it matches the Lucky Limeade pretty good don't you think? I cooked it in the microwave like I told you about before. The DSP is from the Holiday Catalog and is called Candlelight Christmas. I love that paper. The image was die cut from the Window Frames Framelits. 

Here are the details:
Stamp Sets: More Merry Messages
Card Stock and Paper: Lucky Limeade, Early Espresso, Whisper White, Candlelight Christmas DSP 
Tools and Accessories: Big Shot, Window Frames Framelit, Designer Ribbon Slides, Sponge, Dimensionals, Pear Pizzazz Seam Binding(retired) .


Here is an ornament like you see on the front of the Holiday Catalog(sort of) made with the Candlelight Christmas DSP and the Holiday Ornaments Framleits using Tulle Ribbon, Linen Thread, and the Rosette Die on top a Designer Button and the Big Pearl. Oh man, we were laughing so hard that night as I live alone so do not decorate for Christmas and I really didn't want to make this ornament but they sort of forced me into it. LOL! I am going to attach a magnet and put it on my fridge since I don't put up a tree. I think I had more hot glue on my fingers than I did holding my ornament together! Then when I got it all done I had two different colors on the back so I am not sure what I did wrong but it looks pretty from the front. Sometimes it is hard to be me. LOL!

Anyway, thanks for stopping by and leave me an email if you have any questions or find my lost items. Hay, I have a great idea, I could take up a collection for my lost items, okay NOT!  LOL!  Have a great day and happy stamping.

  1. OH NO! I hope you find your lost items! That happens to me too....luckily, I have found everything, but sometimes it was a couple of weeks later! Well, your card is beautiful and so is the ornament! I don't know what I'll do with my ornament either....it's really too big to hang on my itty-bitty tree!
