It seems just yesterday that we were saying good by to 2014 and looking forward to 2015, and here it is time to say good by to 2015 and get ready for a brand new year. I have been thinking about 2015 and thinking about everything that has happened and realized that I am really truly happy, stress free and it is wonderful!! I am so blessed to be able to now do what I love and share it with my customers who I call my friends.
I am sharing a card with you that we just made in our December Card Kit Class last night; it is one of those stamp sets from the Annual 2015-2016 Catalog that has probably been overlooked. When I first saw it, I knew that I had to have it and have been just waiting patiently to share it with my ladies.
The inside greeting that I chose for this card says, "Keep looking up...there may be a Rainbow" I just love this card, it means so much to me. One of the first things that I noticed after I retired, I was taking my morning walk with my beagle, Teddy; and I realized something. The sky was so blue! I think that was sign to me that I had made the right decision and all was right with the world.
So as we go towards 2016, my very best wishes for the coming New Year.
Take care,
Cindy

I choose a Very Vanilla Base, with a Cajun Craze Layer, the Greeting is layered onto a Chocolate Chip Layer and the Flower is made from some Hello Honey, Cajun Craze and Chocolate Chip scraps and is attached to the card using a dimension.

Merry Christmas to You and Yours!
The shopping is done, the menu is planned and all that is left is for me to wish my customers, my friends and my family the warmest Merry Christmas!
I felt that the Season's Greeting that I received from Stampin' Up! was so pretty and quite fitting that I knew that I wanted to pass along.

So enjoy the season and enjoy the day; I will be back after Christmas to show you some great cards as we start the new year!

December 2015 Technique - Splatter
Last week was our Technique Classes, and the cards turned out great! So without further ado, let's see what I have for you!
SPLATTER TECHNIQUE
Create the look of glitter accents on your card
background. Using a few drops of Tomboy
glue, add a few drops of water from an aqua painter, mix well. Tap the aqua
painter against your finger to “splatter” the glue mixture to your cardstock.
Sprinkle glitter on glue drops and let dry.
Join us in the New Year for the technique: Stencil, Sponge & Stamp!
