Stampin! with Jaydee

Glimmering Peace

Hi Everyone. Happy Tuesday night. I have a very quick card for you tonight. I seem to be addicted to this silver glimmer paper. I don't know what is going on this year, maybe it is because we still don't have snow! Cherie, I know you are happy, but seriously, this is Minnesota and it is the end of November and I want some snow and I want it know :-) Remind you of anyone, Rach? I bought this Memory Box stamp a couple of years ago and I still love it. This time I used the fabulous new Stampin'... Read more →

Close as a Memory - Paper Players Challenge # 74

Hi Everyone. Happy Monday. I hope you all had a fabulous weekend, I know I did. Too short, though:-) I finally got my card done for the Paper Players. I find sympathy cards so difficult to make. I put a tremendous amount of thought into the color scheme to use for this particular card. Lesley's sketch was perfect. We hope you will pop along to the Paper Players and play along with us this week. Here's Lesley's fabulous sketch: I used the Mocha Morning DSP as my inspiration for my card. You might think it a strange selection for a... Read more →

Christmas Joy

Hi Everyone. Happy Saturday night. I hope you all had a truly wonderful Thanksgiving full of joy, laughter and zero-calorie pie :-) I usually reveal my Paper Players card on Saturday night. Well, I would have done tonight, too.... except for the fact that I haven't made it yet!!! The last few days have been very busy and today we spent the day decorating the house inside and out. We aren't quite finished yet, but it is certainly beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Well. It would be looking like Christmas if the temps weren't up in the high... Read more →

Around Christmas Time

Hi Everyone. I know... I know... Thanksgiving isn't even here yet, and I'm stuck on making Christmas cards! I wanted to make a Father Christmas, clean and simple card. Cherry Cobbler was calling to me, as I think it is such a perfect change from Real Red. It's also a fabulous color for Father Christmas. I had seen a set from waltzingmouse with a Father Christmas in a circle. I couldn't resist it. It also seemed the perfect image for my card. I added a Christmas embossing plate to the background, some gorgeous SU satin ribbon from the Holiday Mini... Read more →
