Christmas Cards....

Lately I have been having a hard time creating. I don't know if its the intimidation of "not being worthy" of being a stampin up demo... or lack of time or what... but, I hit creators block. So today, with all the kids at various grandparents' houses, I was free to play and create. I feel so much better! I have created two beautiful Christmas cards that would be fabulous demonstrations for parties!! Now if I could just get a couple of those booked!! Here are my cards (not great pictures, taken with my phone... but you get the point!), and a supply list after each card. All Stampin' Up products!!

Thanksgiving Card

So I am so proud of myself, I have purchased all this Stampin' Up stuff, brainstormed, etc, but kept chickening out on making anything!! Ugh! So the wonderful woman I signed up under sent me an email from Late Night Stampers with a challenge and the example card used French Foliage stamp set out of our Mini Catalog. In my card, I used the French Foliage and the Seasonal Sentiments stamp sets, both out of the mini catalog. I used Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, and Pumpkin Pie colored inks, and Old Olive and chocolate chip card stock. :)
