I love the feeling of crisp fall mornings, with frost on the ground and the leaves all falling from the trees.  Puts me in the mood to start holiday cards.  So here is my first one for this year.  I colored the pine cone with Spectrum Noir markers then added Wink of Stella for a little glimmer.  And paired with my favorite green card stock and ribbon.  



And Here is my favorite so far with this set.  



Clean and simple yet totally elegant!

I am thrilled to be participating in yet another awesome blog hop with my friends from Gina K Designs!  Today we are showcasing another amazing set that coordinated with the previously released Fabulous Frame stamp set by Melanie.  Fabulous Holiday Fillers is an amazing set with a ton of sentiments and tons of images to span a huge variety of holidays and events.  


Nothing says holiday like snow.  I love waking up to snow on Christmas morning. Makes me want to stay in my PJ's and enjoy the smells of the holiday.  


And this one used the same snowflakes but to make clean and simple background.  


And finally to combined this set with the original frame set to make a card to reflect the final warm days I hope to hang on to just a little while longer.

Gina K Designs Stamp Out Cancer Guest Design Challenge!

This is a special week to show encouragement and support for our family and friends that have been impacted by breast cancer. We will have a new challenge each day for the week to kick off the month of October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  
Hopefully you've all had a chance to see the new “Fight Like A Girl” stamp set and patterned paper pack.  Gina K. Designs will be making a donation to the American Cancer Society with every purchase of the stamp set & Patterned Paper pack till Oct. 31st. To pick up yours click Here.

Supporting those who are currently fighting or have fought in any way is what the awareness is all about! Sometimes just a little encouragement or smile can make a huge difference. So if you can, send your card along to someone who could use a lift! 

It's crazy to hear the statistics about cancer.  Did you know breast cancer alone will be detected in one in 8 women. Imagine the statistics if we add all the other kinds of cancers.  It's just absolutely scary!  
So my challenge is dedicated to those I spend several hours a week with at the Elysburg, PA cancer center.  Luckily I go for just iron and vitamin infusions, but I get to see the faces of cancer every time I go.  We often take our puppy for a visit, just to bring along a happy smile.  
My Challenge is:    Use the following sketch sketch
 And this is my card.


Enablers List
I used Gina K Designs Pure Luxury Card Stock in
Kraft, White and Innocent Pink.
 Patterned Papers from the paper pack
Fight Like A Girl Paper & the Stamp Set.

Since October is Breast Cancer Awareness month we are kicking off the first week with this release and a full week of challenges on Stamp TV. Each challenge has a prize giveaway! And a donation to American Cancer Society for cancer research is made for every stamp set sold! So enjoy the hop and then watch for a new challenge every day in the Stamp Out Cancer Forum on Stamp TV!


I am so excited to be guest designing this month and even more excited that I get to play with the Awesome Fight Like a Girl Stamp set!  



Such a simple image that has so much meaning. It truly speaks for itself.


For this card I used chalk inks to add coordinating color to the embossed butterfly image. 




And lastly I couldn't resist playing with some of the stamps from the Stamp TV kit as well as the new washi tape and twine.  So pretty! 

 Enjoy the inspiration from our Gina K Design Team:
