Hello Friends, How are you? Sorry for my long absence it’s been a crazy week with all good stuff and lots of air travel for me. (so far 7 different airplanes in one week) It’s my favorite time of the month. Simon Says Stamp Card Kit time of the month. Let me introduce you to November’s CARD KIT and you know the drill by now…. I have one of these babies to give away.
When you have beautiful paper like this from Lawn Fawn called, “Snow Day” I hate to cover it up. By using a square punch or die cut you can create a simple but, lovely card using the paper to it’s fullest potential.
For this card still simple and easy to pull together but, fun and festive. I stamped the background in the same ink as the trees & cut them out. Used some scrap to create trunks and popped them on my card. The heart tree toppers are from the fun sticker set inside the card kit. Always a fun little surprise in each kit.
GIVEAWAY: Just leave a comment & I will announce a random winner on November 1st.
WINNER: For the Mama Elephant giveaway as seen in this post is Lucille K. A super big congrats to you Lucille. Stay tuned for more giveaways. Always grateful for your visits. Hugs, Kathy

Thank you for making cards with patterned paper! I have so much of it and would love to use more pattern in cards but find it hard:-) your inspiration is priceless.
These are just the kind of holiday cards I like to make. Thanks so much for the inspiration.
I love how you used the scenic paper so well. Adorable. Such a great kit, as usual.
Wonder cards and a great new kit. Love how you’ve made the paper do most of the work on your first card but added something extra by cutting out the square. Thanks also for sharing how you can use the swirly stamp. I was drawn to that stamp but didn’t have a clue as to how I could use it on a card.
Hope your weekend will be more restful than these past 7 days, Kathy!

Love card wouldn’t have thought to use paper a vocal point.
Love how you used the swirl stamp at an angle for the background. Great billowy snow day. Hmmm… is billowy snow a thing? Lovely card.

Sweet and simple:) I like that.. These papers look so fun to work with! These cards are adorable. I love the stamp set in this kit and the snowflake Die… wow!!! Thank you so much for the chance to win!!!
Adorable cards! The Scotch foam tape is the best foam tape ever and what I have used for years. A little thinner than other foam pop ups and much more economical.
I totally agree about the paper being covered and you are brilliant with the simple square window! So adorable! Love the use of the hearts on the trees too!
Thanks for the chance to win a kit!
Cheers

Thanks Jean 🙂
Love these cards! Glad to see you back and thanks for a chance to win a kit.
I just want to go on one airplane in my life! LOL Never been but always wanted to. Almost rode in a helicopter once but then sons freaked out and I couldn’t go! I was heartbroken! 🙁 Maybe one day.
LOVE this adorable kit! The little bunnies stole my heart and a thousand ideas are racing around in my little head!! Fingers crossed and thanks for the chance!! BTW: Rest up from all the flying!
Really Barb oh my…. do you prefer to drive … is that why you haven’t flown? 🙂
We are not travelers as a general rule and I don’t even drive anymore because of an injury. If I had the money I would go for a one day trip to a class or something crafty and fly to it but throwing in the expense of getting to the site from the airport and all the other costs it just isn’t feasible. Maybe someday!
Awesome Christmas Cards. Love the ideas.
That paper is awesome! And in my favorite Christmas card colors too! Me wants please!
Such a simple idea to create a cutout with matching paper but it’s so dramatic. Love the Lawn Fawn paper too. Can’t hardly get myself to cut it.
Lovely cards! I really like seeing quick & simple…it’s a nice change from time to time. 🙂 Looks like a great kit…I adore these Lawn Fawn papers!
I love the colors in this months card kit. That teal is gorgeous and so are the cards that you made with the kit. Thanks for sharing.
Two sweet as can be cards! I am in love with this new kit and can hardly wait for mine to arrive. If I won this, I would happily gift it to a crafty friend who I now would love it!!
Hugs..
Thats because you have such a huge heart Lisa 🙂 Hugs

I love both cards, but the one using the full pattern paper piece with the square die cut really caught my eye. I love patterned paper like this but always wondered how I would use it for a card – now I have the answer. Thanks!
Those snow bunnies are adorable. Fantastic cards, as usual 🙂
