Try Stampin' On Tuesday Sketch

Hi all!  We have been having the most beautiful weather lately where I am in Iowa.  I know the farmers will want snow but it is holding off for now and I am ok with that.  I love the cooler weather - it kills off the bugs, I love that! =)  Today I have a card to show you that I made using the new Try Stampin' On Tuesday sketch.  This is sketch #94 for us.  I used the set called Dangles from Clear Dollar Stamps.  I also used stickles on my candy canes to bling them up.

Polar Bear Kisses

It sure feels good to be able to sit down and do some crafting.  Holiday times get so busy.  I have done quite a lot of shopping the last couple days and I am now tired of shopping.  It only happens a couple times a year for me.  This is one of the times. =)  I'm ready to sit and make some cards.  This card is using one of the digital sets release last month from Doodle Pantry.  This adorable little guy and sentiment are part of the set called Quirky Polar Bear.  He comes with the hat or without and 4 sentiments.  He also comes colored with 3 digital papers.

New sketch at Try Stampin' On Tuesday

This week at Try Stampin' On Tuesday we have a very easy sketch for you.  One that can be used with so many different kinds of themes or stamp sets.  I need a sympathy card this week and this sketch worked perfectly.  The sentiment is from Doodle Pantry a set called Sympathy.  This is a free sentiment set being offered by Doodle Pantry.   The inside of my card is blank and I will write a short note to the family.  Come on over and see what the other designers have done with this fun sketch.

I hope you will come on over and join in the fun at Try Stampin' On Tuesday.  Happy crafting. =)

Clear Dollar Stamps Release Day

Today is digital stamp release day over at Clear Dollar Stamps.  I choose two different Christmas sets to work with.  For November CDS is releasing 17 digital sets.  So many fun sets to choose from it's amazing!  For my first card card today I used the set called Holly Wreath.  This set also comes colored and three digital papers to go along with the set.  I colored my wreath with Copic makers - my favorite.  I also added some pearls among the berries.

 The second card I have to show you today is using the set called Christmas Scriptures.  The scriptures are all so beautiful and make up cards so quickly.  My corner dies are from Spellbinders.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I know you would love to see all the new sets available starting today over at Clear Dollar Stamps so you will now want to hop on over to the Clearly iStamp blog.  There you can see them all.
