DIY CD Case Printing Press and Cards

Hello crafty friends, this morning I found some time to make a few cards, it took me three tries to put the sentiment on my stenciled Santa card. Then this evening  I discovered a video in you tube and voila sentiment printing just got a whole lot easier for me.
This CD case makes it easy to line up and print multiple copies
of a sentiment or other stamped images.
Using a Quietfire Design stamp here.


Close up view of double stamped sentiment.




This was the card that challenged me, Joyful sentiment is from SU!
I cut out Santa with my Slice and used it as a stencil.

Thanks for stopping by!

Peace ATC's

Spent the morning playing with some new Quietfire Design stamps. I love this set, they worked
perfectly for some ATCs. It has been a while since I made an ATC and it feels
great to get back into them. These are available for trade on my flickr page here.




Thanks for the visit!

Challenge and Exchanges, Oh Yeah!

Hi friends, this evening I've got the Christmas blues going on but it's a good thing! I'm playing along in the Fusion card challenge -blue Christmas. This card was a breeze to make I added some sparkle to the patterned paper but sadly it doesn't show up.

Used a gorgeous stamp from Quietfire Design and SU! papers.


Fridays mail run netted me these three beauties below, it doesn't get much
better than this for happy mail days! :)
This sweet card is from Shauna for Nov SOS Card Chain Challenge.
These two gorgeous cards are from Arlene and LaVon as part of the
Angel Christmas card exchange on Age of Elegance Flickr Group Exchange.

DIY Storage Box and Album Make Over

Hello! This weekend I continued on my efforts to organize my craft room. One of the things that I've been wanting to do for a while now is to make some custom storage containers. The first item I made was a box that holds my re-inkers it also fits washi tape very nicely. I have a lot of mat board scraps and they are perfect for making sturdy boxes. There was a bit of the scrapbook paper left over so I used it up for this sweet little card. I'm loving this paper stack. Then I tackled a falling apart 8x8 chipboard album that I use for storing my clear stamps in. Thanks for looking! Jutta

Christmas Card Collection and Snow!

Good morning , let the clean up begin here's a view outside this morning.




Now on to the fun stuff and the rest of today's share, Christmas cards and a bookmark tag. These are
a mix of papers from my stash, die cuts and SU! stamps.

 
In the cards below I used my stamp for the snowflake details on the RH one and stenciled through my die for the LH one.

I really like how this bookmark tag came together, it's going to look great hanging on the front of a gift bag.

I'm always glad to answer any questions if you'd like to know more about how my cards are made.
Have a good weekend!
