Flowery Birthday card

I have to admit I actually like pre-colored digital stamps so I can make few cards really fast. I own few pre-colored digital stamps from Fred-she-said. One of them is Peony in Jar. Their colored images are amazing... They have a good collection of floral images. I really want to buy few more from some other stores also so if you know any good store in which I can find pre-colored images, please let me know. I will really appreciate you.

Punched snowflakes Christmas

It feels good to blog more than one posts per day after a long long time... I bought Martha Stewart's Snowflakes punch on Flea Market at Memories Live on store in Cupertino. I got this punch in really good price.. It was lightly used and I bought it for 3$. I think it was a good deal as at Micheal's, after applying 40% off coupon also it was more than 3$. Anyways, I used it in this card as punched snowflakes around Stampin Up's Merry and Bright rub-on.

I apologize for terrible picture for the card...

Another Chritmas wih Acetate

I am planning a trip to India for a month in end of this year for almost a month for my brother's wedding. He is getting married on the same day when I got married. I will be going after 3 years so I am really excited, we are doing shopping and packing..

From the same My Mind's eye Wonderful Winter paper stack, I made another Christmas card with transparency(acetate) sheet. From the same set I cut few trees and printed 'Merry Christmas' as digital sentiment. I used Decorate Your Holidays from Hero Arts for stamping few snowflakes on acetate. Few years back, I brought these blue studs from India which didn't have sticky back but now I feel I should use those more often.

Christmas card with poinsettia

When Christmas is near by, what I love is I see holiday mood in everyone... In my office we have lot of work but people are totally in mood of enjoyment(which is not a good thing as we can't finish our work :-)).

How about another Christmas cards with Penny Black's Christmas at dusk sticker's set. I love those stickers, they are so easy to use and of course no mess with that and I get an amazing focal image all the times... :-) I used the paper from My Mind's eye Wonderful Winter paper stack.

Transparent window Christmas card

I made few Christmas cards so after a long long long time, I thought of blogging about it. It's been more than a year from my last proper blog post. :)

Here in my favorite store Memories Live On, they have a Flea Market for twice a year and I always buy good things from there. This year I bought one Christmas papers bunch by My Mind's Eye and used it in this card. I also used a piece of transparent sheet for a small see though window in the middle, cut few trees from the same set. I used Decorate Your Holidays from Hero Arts for stamping few snowflakes on sheet. I totally enjoyed making this simple and quick card...
