I wish you could join us for Coffee and Cards. This “episode” featured another retiring stamp set Sheltering Tree (137163). We had a stamp set stamp camp using this stamp set back when it first came out, a few years ago. There is a card that has been kept up on the inspiration shelf since then… Soon the whole card will be retired…. the last hold out was the stamps… the ribbon and punches sued have been gone of several years. Do you see the four seasons?? That was the inspiration for the type…

Hi Friends, Today I'm sharing a technique that's been around for a while but never gets old. My friend Lani showed me a gorgeous card she made using the Woodland Embossing Folder and I just had to give it a go! Here's my version: I love the way this turned out and it's so much simpler to make than it looks. Follow along while I explain - these are the basic supplies you'll need: You will be working on the inside of the front of the embossing folder. The front is the side with "Sizzix"…

Since we are taking a break from the party this week, I figured we could go through the last couple of link parties to pull together these Last Minute Thanksgiving Ideas!

I couldn't find any instructions on the internet, so here's some... This a normal card size (for the card , seen as Tangelo Twist), then the white insert is just 5x6 inches and scored at 2 and 4 inch with the card being scored in the landscape position and folded into 3 (concertina style). The far right third section is attached to the inside of the card, and then you fold it and close the card and then attach the picture. Any shape works for the 'window', just make sure that the picture in…

After seeing Kathy's (muscrat) fabulous card which you can see [url=http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/2709017]here[/url] I smooshed and cased her for an entire month! Love the watercolor effect without actually having to watercolor! This one was easy. Smooshed the background, cut a Tim Holtz tree from shimmer sheetz and mounted. Added a few tiny nailheads and framed in gold Shimmer sheetz. Stamped the sentiment and embossed in gold. Thanks for stopping by.

First I masked the vertical strip of cs, then…
