Happy Monday friends! Today, I'm going to show you how to make a quick and SPARKLY Christmas card!!! I absolutely LOVE our glimmer paper and if you don't have it yet…it's such an easy way to add beautiful sparkle to your card.
This card was made by Joyce Feraco and I was lucky to get one from convention as a swap. I have to admit, I haven't use this stamp set alot but, I really love it now that I've pulled it out!
Have you struggled with lining up stamps on matching die-cut shapes? I have tried eye-balling it and using the Stamp-A-Ma-Jig…but, the first isn't that easy and the second is just too time consuming.
Recently, I learned a tip that has made lining up so much easier for me! Enjoy!
Here's the featured card in the video, inspired by Justin from JK Cards. This was also a card I am sending out to my STAMP SET OF THE MONTH club members this month!
This is a card that I received at Founders Circle in our swap made by Rolanda Patton and I loved it so much that I thought I'd make a video about it and also use it in my card class this Friday!
This card is super simple to make but so darn cute! It uses the "Moving Forward" stamp set which Stampin' Up! donates $3 to the Ronald McDonald House each time one is sold.

Happy Friday everyone! I can't believe this is the long weekend before school starts. We've had a great summer and I can't wait to get on a regular schedule once my kids go to school. This is going to be the first time that all 3 kids go to full-time school…I've waited 12 years for this moment!!! 🙂 🙂
Today card is absolutely stunning and I thought I'd make a video tutorial to show you a short cut on making the background for this! This card was made by Michelle Sturgeon, one of the very talented Inky Divas in my group of fun stampers!
I love how she's used non-traditional colours and added some fantastic sparkle with the Silver Glimmer Paper!
