My thank you cards

What up it is me Faith. These are my thank you cards I did with my Mom. How do i make it, well it is kind of easy you use the negative of the Sizzix snowflake it is pretty, then you need a card and some packing tape you put the tape on the back of the negative, then you need glitter blue or wight it does not matter, then you sprinkle glitter on the negative until the the tape on the negative is full, then take your adhesive and put it on the front of the card and stick the negative on the card know you have most of the card done then you stamp thank you on it then you have my thank you card.

Hey it is me Faith. I am blogging for my first time. I am so happy.
OK we went to this dudes house yesterday night. OK every year this dude puts up a bunch of lights. This year he got more, like a monkey on a swing it's funny. And he probably has over 50 blowup things. And if you have seen deck the halls there is more lights than Buddy.

Thank you cards


Here is my last blog entry for tonight. I decided to make a Thank You card and have it all ready for Christmas day so that we could write the thank-you notes and they would go out the day after Christmas. This is the front and I blew up the back this is actually about a 2x1" stamp. I had so much fun doing this card. Merry Christmas if I don't get a chance to blog again.

Technique Theme Swap Card


Every month my upline has a swap with our stamp group. This month's(January) theme was technique. Wow I never imagined that it would be so hard to think up a card. I scored www.splitcoaststampers.com looking for ideas and couldn't find anything. Then I remembered last Sunday standing in Heather's kitchen talking to her mother-in-law about Stampin Up! and listening to her describe a technique. I was mostly just politely listening to her because what she was saying made on sense to me. But at 4:30 this morning (the time my brain decided was time to get up) HAD to find the technique for the swap. I recalled the conversation and went to splitcoast and thanks to Beate found this tutorial http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/glitter_window/

So this was my variation on the tutorial. I actually loved it and plan to use it with the negative of the snowflake I will blog next.

A Love Affair to Remember


This is our youngest cat Dude. His real name is Gingerbread. (I have a Christmas theme for my animals but my husband refused to call this one anything but dude) I guess this just sums up my love for my husband. How can you not love a man who will take pictures of his kitten sleeping, watch It's a Wonderful Life for the millionth time and still cry, and one who still tucks his nine year old daughter into bed every night.

Tags for presents




Good Evening! I need to go to bed but wanted to post some of the tags I made tonight. I really like the Santa one with the ball. I wish you could see these better because then you could see my glitter.:)
I have a confession to say out loud. I have an obsession with glitter. My friend Brenda gave me a ton of Martha Stewart Glitter for Christmas then I went out and bought 21 more bottles with glitter glue and all I can think of is how I am going out the day after Christmas to get more as soon as it goes on Clearance. I wonder if there is such a thing Glitter Anynomous????
I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I hope that God blesses you and your families for all of the New Year.
