Happy Black Friday!! How are all of you feeling? Are you in turkey comas? This was a very different Thanksgiving. I spent it with just the hubs and me. Usually I am at my brother's for three days cooking for 30 plus folks. I am hopeful that next year will be different.

Black Friday is always spent with my BFF at all the major craft stores stocking up on essentials for holiday card making. How do you spend black Friday?

Today starts a new challenge at CAS on Friday. Our theme this week is:

SNOW

That is a rather broad theme and you can go any which way with it.

I love the Taylor Expression's masking stencils. They are perfect tool to make a fast clean and simple card.

You have two weeks to get your snow on and play along with us at CAS on Friday. As each snowflake is different, I am sure each card entered will be unique and beautiful.

Happy Little Stampers August Sketch Challenge

Oh goodness!! My first Christmas card !! I never start this early. I am definitely a last minute girl when it comes to my holiday cards. December 1, 1 am sitting down in my studio to make around 100 cards. 

  

When I saw the sketch challenge this month at Happy Little Stampers I just thought Christmas and this is what I came up with (after digging around to find my Christmas stamps!).  You did notice I turned the sketch upside down didn't you?

I used this set from Lawn Fawn, a favorite from last year. The embossing folder was extremely popular. Every time I tried to order it, it was out of stock. Much to my amazement I found it at the Heirloom Rubberstamp Convention. 

Please join in the fun over at Happy Little Stampers and see what the rest of the DT came up with!
