Sneak Peek

Christmas Card Sneak Peek Day # 3

I love Christmas cards, I love to stamp them, I love to mail them to my friends and family, and I love getting homemade cards back.  Christmas cards Rock!!!

Here is card 3....

This card is a Soft Suede with paper and stickers from, you guessed it, the Christmas Lane Simply Scrappin' kit.  I added the Cherish stamp from the Baroque Motifs stamp set and the Lucky Limeade ruffled ribbon.

Sneak Peek

Christmas Card Sneak Peek Day # 2  
(okay, its really day 3 but I am doing 2 posts today..... so were even!!!)

Ta-Dah!
So this card uses the Pennant Parade stamp set and punch.... I love the little tree.  The ribbon is Cherry Cobbler and the card is Lucky Limeade.   The little "merry" stamp is from the Tiny Tags stamp set.  I made the trees by punching out 3 trees, folding them and gluing them like an accordion to make it pop out.

Stamp sets I used:
Pennant Parade (Item # 122740)
Tiny Tags (Item # 118091)

Inspiration

I recently discovered the Joy of Pinterest.  I have yet to decide if I head over heals in love with this amazing site or if I hate this time-sucking madness!  (ok, really I love it... I just need to find a way to freeze time so I can spend hours pinning and repinning and following, ahh.)
Here is what I was inspired to do today:
I stumbled across this lovely lady, Pink Buckaroo, and LOVED her Halloween Hand sanitizers (Pictured below)
And I had to create my own... so here is what I made:

 This is a first attempt, so be kind... thing always get better with practice!
 Peppermint Patty Hand Sanitizer, yummm  Bath & Body Works
 This pattern was so easy to follow, but looks totally impressive
And the best part was that I got 5 hand sanitizers for $5.  Which means I have another 4 creative gifts coming your way!!!

Inspiration

Last night we went to our friends house for dinner.  We love these guys, my husband has been friends with them for like 13 years, I was lucky enough to inherit them when we got married.  I love being in her kitchen - she is always cooking something yummy!  She has her own magazine Mom Magazine and she has the best ideas ever!   It was my turn to make desert and I have done this recipe a few times before with great results..

Salted Carmel Brownies
I got this recipe originally from another hero of mine Pioneer Woman (if you haven't discovered her yet - she will change your life for the better)  Every recipe I have tried from her is AMAZING!!!

The Brownies were everything I could have ever hoped for and more.  I got home and felt some inspiration to create something so rich and simple and my stamping room was just calling to me.   So here's my creation
I used the Delightful Decorations Stamp Set (Item #116517)
