Good morning my sweet friends & welcome to another "Thoughtful Thursday"! Today my team & I basically made cards of encouragement, thankful, birthday, etc.... For my card, I decided to go with a set of 4 3x3 cards w/coordinating 3x3 envelopes! You can see exactly how I made these in my video below!
Here is what each card looks like! ;)
This is what the inside of each card looks like! ;)

GOOD MORNING & welcome to another "Tag it Tuesday!" Today my team & myself all made a set of 4 tags! There is a variety of SUPER CUTE tags for you to see, so I will make thise QUICK! ;) For my set of tags, I went w/a Halloween theme (surprise surprise!) hehehe! You know how I LOVE Halloween, "which, by the way", I ALREADY decorated my house! All my pumpkins are home for a couple months! ;) I ALWAYS decorate in September because the time FLY'S by way too fast & I want to enjoy my "decor" for that much longer! ;) Okay, back to my tags, I used both "OLD" & "NEW" products!
Here they are close up! One w/the little spider hanging & the other w/the little bat! You can see in my video below how I made these from beginning to end! :)
WOW! Weren't ALL of these tags AWESOME? I hope we inspired "YOU" to sneak off to your craft room & make some tags of your own! :)

GOOD MORNING & welcome to the FOURTH day of our "12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop"! Today I decided to go w/some SUPER SIMPLE cards that you don't have to worry about paying ALOT extra for postage! I tried to make them w/no layers & just stamping only! Now, I used some clear acetate that I found at my local stationery store, but you can also get it HERE! To switch this card up, just use an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of white cardstock & cut it in half to make (2) A2 size cards! Since I haven't used my clear acetate in a long time, I decided to use it today! For this card, I used the Tim Holtz Winter edition ink "Evergreen Bough" to ink up my 4 x 5 1/2 piece of white cardstock! I also used 4 diffent stamp sets to make this! For the border, I used "Small Talk", the wagon is from "Home Sewn", the trees "All Around Christmas" & the sentiment is from "Mixed Holiday Sentiments"!
For this next card I used the Tim Holtz winter edition "Iced Spruce" to ink up my white piece of cardstock! For a "little" dimension, I added some CUTE little buttons for the wheels on the wagon! I found those little buttons at Joann's & added some Lime stickles to my trees~! THAT'S it, a "simple" but "CUTE" card all ready to be mailed out!
You can see EXACTLY how I made these cards in my video below!:)

HAPPY HAPPY FRIDAY!!! Welcome to another "Friday Tip of the Day"! For today, I've had several questions regarding card sizes, how many you can get from an 8 1/2x11 & 12x12 cardstock. I also had several questions on which My Creative Time stamp sets would be good starters! I answered all of those questions in my video below! I'd thought I would leave you w/2 SUPER SIMPLE cards to show you that your card can be perfect even w/o adding tons of layers! "Less is More"! hehehehe!;)
Not sure what was going on, but my pics kinda came out crummy today:(
Here is my video answering a few of your questions on which "My Creative Time" stamps would be good "Starters" & different cards sample sizes using an 8 1/2x11 & 12x12 cardstock!
