A Christmas Wish
I have one last card to squeeze in for the month of November. Soon it will be time to send out Christmas cards, and I don't want to be scrambling around trying to make more at the last minute. You can find an array of beautiful stamp sets HERE on the Flourishes site. I used one of my favorites called Petals and Peace.

Friends like you...
Hello again! I am so happy to have 5 days off work for Thanksgiving break. I still have a good bit of Christmas cards that I need to make. A few weeks ago I ordered some MFT stamps and die-namics. This darling little Pure Innocence girl was one of my purchases.
The sketch was the perfect design for the image I wanted to use. I didn't have the die shown in the sketch, so I improvised and used a die from one of my Blueprint sets and cut the ends on the diagonal.
Below, I chose to add a die cut bow to dress is up a little. Just adding a scrap of patterned paper left over from the outside of my card ties it all together.
As you can see I added some glitter Stickles to her leggings and the pom poms on her hat.

Here is the sketch I used from MFTWSC.

Black Friday Sale
Hello all! We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with family or friends! At Flourishes, we feel stuffed — not only our bellies but our warehouse as well! We are ready for the Christmas season and to get YOU ready, we have one heck of a Black Friday Sale that kicks off NOW!
I stamped a background using the smaller sprig of greenery in this stamp set and randomly stamped it in colored ink. I used some pretty pieces of patterned paper to coordinate with the sketch design. I was hesitant to use a grey ink to sponge on my paper, but I wanted that whole distressed look, so I went for it.
What's on sale? EVERYTHING that is on our SALE PAGE-- you can take an ADDITIONAL 30% OFF! We need to move some inventory and our loss is YOUR gain! We should point out there are TONS of items on our sale page -- more than 300 items to be exact!!! All you have to do is put in the coupon code: BF30SALE in the coupon code box at the time of check out. If you have your eye on something that isn't on the sale page -- stay tuned! We'll have a second CYBER MONDAY SALE kicking off Monday and in that sale -- all items store wide will be 15% off. Shop now for big savings or wait and shave some savings off your total! Now to inspire you with some fantastic creations with our retiring sets (which are on sale right now!) and some fun Christmas items…cue the Design Team!

Coffee Time
Today we bring you another round of inspiration created with our brand new November Release Stamp sets from the Senior Design Team. We had so much fun with them we just couldn’t stop making cards! It’s our chance to show them off at least one more time while you can still purchase the November Stamp Bundle at a discount! Today is the last day the discount is available and we don’t want you to miss out!
I love this new coffee/tea themed stamp set. I can see myself using it a lot. I did use the coffee stain stamp from So Distressed for a little background stamping on the image panel. I LOVE a good cup of coffee, but to be honest, it has some bad side effects on me. It messes with my blood sugar too much, unless I drink it after lunch. The doctor said I am not diabetic, but just very sensitive to things that alter my blood sugar like coffee. So in the mornings I have to drink hot tea. Not a problem because I like them both.

So hop on over to see what cozy and warm creations everyone has in store for you today:
