This reindeer punch is one of my favorites to use around the holiday time. He makes his debut this year on a cheery, colorful card in a set with 4 of his friends!


Measuring 4.25" x 5.5", this A2 size card features lots of fun layers and colors. A natural, kraft card base is blank on the inside with plenty of room for your personal message or sentiment. Details on the front of the card include a bright green block near the bottom featuring the stamped sentiment "Merry Christmas". Sentiment is stamped in black ink. A fun polka dot paper with various shades of greens, reds and pinks covers the top portion of the card. On top of a white circle with inked black edges sits a reindeer head, complete with enamel eyes! The reindeer is popped off of the card base with the use of mini pop dots.

Just in time for the holidays...it's an all occasion mini card bundle. Definitely one of my favorites! 

Each card is 3" x 3" and comes with a plain white mini envelope. These cards are the perfect size for tucking in a lunch box or briefcase, adhering to a candy bar or small gift, or leaving in a convenient place for a special friend to find. 

The first photo is a birds eye view of all 12 cards that are included, then each card has a close up view. 


Good Luck
A black card base lies under a bright green square with the stamped sentiment "Good Luck" with a shamrock. Bright white lines surround the green square. On the inside of the card, there's a white square with plenty of room for your note or message. 


Birthday Wishes
Cheery little birds make birthday wishes extra fun! Turquoise cardstock serves as the base for this card. Fun patterned paper featuring colorful birds is the highlight of this card. The sentiment "birthday wishes" is stamped in black ink on yellow-orange cardstock and is raised off of the card base with mini pop dots. 


Congratulations
Fun colored stripes in bright greens, blues, & browns make this card super fun. "Congratulations" is stamped in black ink on green textured cardstock. The green piece is raised off of the card base with the use of mini pop dots. 


Get Well Soon
Anyone will feel better upon getting this sweet pick-me-up card. "Get Well Soon" is stamped in black ink on a punched out bracket in a melon orange color. The background is a subtle plaid featuring blues, reds, oranges, yellows and greens. The card base is a light green color and the edges are inked in white. The bracket is raised off of the card base with mini pop dots. 


Happy Everything
Who needs a reason to send a fun mini card? This is sure to make anybody smile. Bright green cardstock serves as the base of this card while fun stripes add to the happiness. "Happy Everything" is stamped in black ink on bright orange cardstock. The orange block is raised off of the card base with mini pop dots. 


Hello
Relaxing, calming colors make this simple card very classy. A soft brownish tan serves as the base and a cool aqua block is the center of attention. "Hello" is stamped in black ink on a white block of cardstock featuring fun lines and dots. On the inside of the card is a white block of cardstock with plenty of room for your personal message or note. 


Just Because
A quirky pattern in bright colors featuring geometric shapes makes this card perfect for sending for any occasion. The message "just because" is embossed on yellow textured paper. The edges are slightly inked in an orange hue, matching the bright orange cardstock base.

Swiss Dot textured cardstock in a light brown color serves as the base for this card. A fun, organic feeling card features a green leaf pattern with the stamped sentiment "Live Laugh Love" in black ink. The edges of the outside of the card are inked in black. 


Love
Dark pink cardstock serves are the base of this card under a block of light pink cardstock, both featuring the Swiss Dot textured pattern. The light pink block is purposely tilted and the edges are inked lightly in black. They match an outline of a heart with the scripted word "love", both stamped in black ink. 


Miss You
Brightly colored stars provide an awesome background for a card with a message "Miss You". The edges of the star paper are inked in black to match the ink of the stamped sentiment. The card base is white cardstock, clean and simple. 


Smiley Sun
Textured yellow cardstock serves as the base for this happy card. A very happy sunshine guy is stamped in black ink before being colored with yellow ink. The sunshine is stamped on white cardstock in a circular shape with edges inked in black. Perfect for making anybody happy. 


Thank You
A deep purple cardstock serves as the base for this card. Fun, polka dotted paper with violet highlights features the stamped sentiment "Thank You". On the inside, a block of light violet paper leaves plenty of room for your personal message.

season's greetings


One of the best things about being an artist is creative freedom. I love being able to design and come up with something out of nothing. 

Today's card features stripes and solids and is one of my favorites of the season. [The scan isn't particularly fantastic, so it's in my plans to re-do as well as include some stellar photographs. Please forgive this.]

Onto the details of this listing!

Blocks of color compliment a striped pattern featuring subtle swirls and stripes of embossed glitter. 

The foundation of this card is a heavy white cardstock with edges inked in black. A large block in a leaf green color sits under a block of ivy green. Raised up on top of that with the use of pop dots sits the block featuring stripes and subtle swirls. 

Near the bottom of the card is a vintage red colored rectangle. Raised on top of that is a strip of black cardstock with the sentiment "Season's Greetings" stamped in white ink. 

This card is the A2 size and measures 4.25" x 5.5". The interior of the card is plain white with plenty of room for your personal message or sentiment.

Merry Christmas Ribbon Tree


One of my favorite supplies to use is ribbon [and I have LOTS of it!] 

This card features a festive fun alternative to the standard holiday tree. Various strips of decorative ribbon create the "branches" of this tree. 


The ribbon sizes increase as they get lower on the tree. "Merry Christmas" is located near the bottom right of the card in black letters. The gold star at the top of the tree is raised with the use of pop dots to add dimension. [I love the little details!]

love hope peace joy


It's the little details of cards that mean the most to me. The inking of edges, the fine distressed edges, the placement of elements. 

On this card several layers combine to create this festive greeting. On a white cardstock base, green printed paper with various holiday words provides a background. A gold block with distressed images is located in the center and layered on top of that is a white block with the stamped sentiment "love hope peace joy". The edges of the white block are inked in green. The white block is raised off of the gold block with the use of pop dots. The outer edges of the card are inked in red.

Merry Christmas Bundle


5 of these awesome cards are up for sale in my Etsy shop

I love the feel of these cards...the patterns are so fun and the colors aren't your "standard" Christmas colors. While the same papers were used for the entire set, each card will be a little different depending upon the placement of the design. 

The left side of the card features a variety of holiday trees next to a block of brown tone-on-tone patterned swirls. Two random strips lay under a turquoise block with the stamped sentiment "Merry Christmas". Sentiment is stamped in a dark brown ink. The edges of the turquoise block and the outer edges of the card are inked in brown. 

These cards are a different size than my standard cards. They measure 4" x 5.75". The card base and interior are a natural kraft color. The inside is blank with plenty of room for your personal message or sentiment. A coordinating kraft envelope is included for each card. 

This listing is for five [5] of these cards. 

Like I've been mentioning, I've got lots of holiday goodness coming up, so be sure to come back and visit soon!




Embossed Fall Leaves


This card combines two of my favorite things : patterned paper and embossing folders!

I love the way that embossing folders add such texture and depth to cards. Here, the embossing is used as a secondary detail. First thing you see is the colorful fall leaves, then up close you see the added detail of the embossed fall words. 

Great for sending as a general "thinking of you" type card!

This card is A2 size, measuring 4.25" x 5.5". It is folded on the left side and opens from the right. The card base is made from heavy white cardstock. The edges of the card are inked with brown and the inside of the card is blank with plenty of room for your personal message or sentiment.
