Good morning from Colorado!  Igor and I came for a day and a half to visit with my mom – we’d visited her at Christmas when he lived with us 21 years ago!  He very sweetly treated me to the trip – and we flew First Class.  What a lovely Christmas present!

This is what Finn thought of me leaving…

But – the weather here is beautiful (if cold cold cold!) and the trip was uneventful.

And with its own beauty!

So – this one’s from Colorado!

Since it’s the season of thank-you cards (that’s the season that follows Christmas, by the way!), I decided to make a Christmas thank you card.  I used the lovely Santa’s Sleigh Thinlits and some Cable Knit Dynamic TIEF, a bit of Softly Falling, and the new (in the Sale-A-Bration catalog) Any Occasion stamp set.  Take a look-see:

Yes. It’s pink. 🙂

Here’s why – it’s all because of the TGIF Challenges!

I started with a piece of Whisper White and ran it thru the Softly Falling TIEF.  Then I used a piece of Stampin’ Sponge and brushed across the embossed portions of the panel with Blushing Bride ink.  I also brushed the edges with a Blushing Bride inked sponge, then SNAILd it on Flirty Flamingo card stock.

To make my Santa’s Sleigh tree, I first made a colored and embossed piece of Whisper White.  I inked up the raised portion of the Cable Knit Dynamic TIEF with the Blushing Bride ink, just tapping all over on the folder.  Then I carefully laid the panel inside, closed the folder and embossed it.   When I pulled it out of the folder, I cut two trees with the Santa’s Sleigh die.  While I was at it, I cut a third from Blushing Bride.

I used Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue to adhere the Blushing Bride and right-most trees.   Then I popped the final one on with Stampin’ Dimensionals!

For the sentiment, I stamped the Thank You from the Sale-A-Bration Any Occasion stamp set in Flirty Flamingo on Whisper White.  Then I added a “string” with the string stamp image.  I fussy cut the whole thing and then used Liquid Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere it across the trees.

To add a little sumpin’ sumpin, I adhered two Blushing Bride sequins (from the Blushing Bride Sequin Trim) to the end of the banner “string”.  And finally, I added some Flirty Flamingo stars Enamel Shapes.

On the inside, I used a Whisper White panel and stamped the tree from Santa’s Sleigh in Blushing Bride.

I matted the panel on Flirty Flamingo and then into my Blushing Bride card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!

For my Whisper White Medium Envelope, I added a Santa’s Sleigh tree in Blushing Bride on the front…

…and I embossed the flap in the Softly Falling TIEF, then brushed it with Blushing Bride using a sponge.

Et Voila!  A pink-and-white Christmas card for the Thank-You Season using the Santa’s Sleigh stamp and thinlits set.  Hope you like!

Well – good Monday-day-after-Christmas to y’all!  I sure hope you had a most wondrous Christmas Day with your family and friends.  And ate a lot!

We sure did – the Prime Rib was excellent and we had too many sides to count.  As usual!

Finn had himself a wonderful day.  He got three new bones – one from him mom (me!), one from his grandma (my mom!) and one from his Auntie Jan!

That’s him with just two of his new chewie-up-things!  He’s so happy!  And on top of all that – there was company!  Lots and lots of company!  And they all petted him and loved on him and told him how very handsome he is!  Which, of course, he is!  So, as I type this, he’s sacked flat out – sawing logs.  One.  Tired.  Little.  Man!! 🙂

My card for today is a quick and easy one – that uses the 2017 Occasions stamp set called Cool Treats and a freebie stamp set in the Sale-A-Bration catalog called Tasty Trucks.  Take a look-see:

I started out by cutting a Crumb Cake card base the same size as one of our Note Cards and Envelopes – 3 1/2″ x 5″ – but I made it a top-folding card (versus the side-fold in the Note Cards).  I made a background directly on the card base by stamping the pennant banner image from the Tasty Trucks set in Crumb Cake ink.  I just stamped it all over.

Then I took two strips of Cool Treats Designer Washi Tape and ran them across the front of the card.

My art and sentiment panel is a piece of Very Vanilla card stock.  First I stamped the two sentiment words from Cool Treats.  I stamped “Cool” first in Pool Party and then added “You’re” in Watermelon Wonder.

I made popsicles from Peekaboo Peach and Watermelon Wonder, using the images from Cool Treats.  I first stamped the popsicle images – the Peekaboo Peach ones are stamped full-strength, and the Watermelon Wonder was stamped off once.  I added the double-line image to the Peekaboo Peach treats – also in Peekaboo Peach.  For the Watermelon Wonder, I used the little curved line image – stamping it off once before stamping the popsicle,

Finally, I added Crumb Cake popsicle sticks and SNAILd my panel to the card front.  And that was it!

On the inside, I repeated the Crumb Cake pennants background and the two strips of Cool Treats Designer Washi.  My Very Vanilla panel got a sentiment from the Tasty Trucks set in Peekaboo Peach.  Then I added a line of tiny ice cream cones in Crumb Cake – this image is one of several tasty goodies in the Tasty Trucks set.  I colored the ice creams with my Pool Party, Watermelon Wonder and Peekaboo Peach Stampin’ Write Markers.

I SNAILd the panel into the Crumb Cake card base and…done!

My Crumb Cake envelope (from the Crumb Cake Note Cards and Envelopes), got more Tasty Trucks ice cream cones across the front…

…and a Cool Treats popsicle in Watermelon Wonder on the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  Quick.  Easy.  Single layer so it’s easy to mail!  Pretty much perfect – and all thanks to the fun images in the Cool Treats stamp set and the free and fun images in Tasty Trucks! Hope you like!
