Is it true?

I've had this Art Impression stamp for years and finally got it colored. It needed just a little extra sass, and well knowing me, I found it. For I am one that really only likes the white meat so I thought it was perfect. The challenge at Art Impressions is the little things well it's not the whole turkey just part of it, lol. This also has a wobbler piece so the front of the card is the butt that looks like it is running away.

Merry Christmas with pinecones

Growing up in Wisconsin and being raised out in the country, we always had lots of pinecones around. Now I love when I go into the craft stores or places where they have them scented with cinnamon. It just reminds me of the large trees from the woods and seeing fresh white snow on them during the winter. I just love this Tim Holtz die cut and it goes perfectly with the HSS sketch.

Just Be Gauze

Well I had to do a Halloween one too. I've had this PI Mummy and die cut and thought it was about time that I used it. I also purchased some Glow in the Dark embossing powder from Moxy so I put that on the black paper. It didn't photograph the best. I put cheesecloth that I have also had forever around cardstock to match the mummy.
