I went with the winter fun theme again for my card today. When my boys were growing up we went skiing after Christmas every year. My boys took up snowboarding so I bought this cute stamp to make cards for them. This is a very old Stampa Rosa stamp. What fun memories I have of us going on these trips. One year stands out when my 14 year old (now 34) flipped in the air and fell on his collarbone. Thankfully it was the last run of our 3 day skiing trip. Thankfully it was a clean break and he was back up and snowboarding again in 6 weeks!

Die:  Distressed Holiday - Sizzix

Dies Series #22

 Hi and welcome to my blog. I have one more Thanksgiving card to show you using unused dies. This makes 22 unused dies so far! I will still have unused dies in my stash after my series is over next month! On this card I used Wildflowers #2 dies by Sizzix. The pumpkin is a layered stamp by Sunny Studios. The saying is from Just For Fun Stamps. I have been trying to use a lot of things from my satsh so I pulled out a background that I made this year using a brush of clear glue in places and then sponging green and brown inks across it when it dried. I love the distressed look it makes. 


Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

I chose to go with the winter fun theme for my card. Who doesn't love to go sledding in the snow? I used to spend hours sledding when I was little (that is when we had more snow in the South) and I could hardly be coaxed inside! I pulled a background from my stash where I had swiped some blue and purple acrylic paints across the card using an old credit card. I then smooshed it a little in white acrylic paint to make it look snowy. The snowflake background die was cut out of glitter card stock.
