A Thank You for my UPS Man

I just love my UPS Driver, most Stampin' Up! Demo's feel that way about the person that brings them all their Stampin' Toys!  I'm lucky to have the same driver most of the time and when I'm home, I always watch for him and say hello.  He loves my chocolate chip cookies! 

For Christmas though, I made Peanut Blossoms which is a soft peanut butter cookie with a Hershey's Kiss in the middle that goes on as soon as they come out of the oven.  So yummy!  I need to get them out of the house!

Recipe:
Cherry Cobbler - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Whisper White - 5 1/4" x 4" - cut 2 - one for outside, one for inside
Cherry Cobbler - 5 1/8" x 3 7/8" - embossed with Swirls and Curls embossing folder

Stamps:   Spirited Snowmen and Snow is Glistening (inside)
Ink: Granny Apple Green and Memento Black
Stampin' Blends:  Cherry Cobbler, Granny Apple Green, Pumpkin Pie and Pool Party

Wink of Stella is used on the snowman's body.  I wish it would photograph better though!

Inside, I stamped snowflakes from Spirited Snowman in Pool Party and a sentiment from Snow is Glistening with Granny Apple Green.

I just wish I could be home tomorrow for the delivery.  He should be delivering my Pre-Order from the Occasions Catalog!  I can hardly wait! 

Thank you for looking in today.  Happy Monday!

Blizzard of Wishes

Snowflakes have never really been on my radar in my crafting.  I think that is because I live in a snow free zone being in Phoenix, Arizona.  We just don't get snow here and honestly don't even get that many cold days, so I just don't think about them much.

However, I really do like this Snow is Glistening set, complete with a bunch of thinlits dies.  

Here's is today's fun snowflake card.

Recipe:
Night of Navy - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Silver Foil - 5 1/8" x 3 7/8" - Use this to die cut the snowflake
Balmy Blue 4 7/8" x 3 3/4"
Whisper White scrap for sentiment
Whisper White 5 1/4" x 4" inside

Stamp with Versamark onto the Balmy Blue, add white embossing powder and set with the heat gun.  Across the top I used the more solid stamp with snowflakes, embossed and set that, then stamped again with the smaller stamp with snowflakes and then embossed and set that.

I popped up the snowflake with dimensionals in the middle only.

Here is the back side of the Silver Foil with the snowflake cut out.  I meant to take a picture of the other side and forgot until I'd already adhered it to the Balmy Blue.  Sorry!

Stamp the sentiment onto Whisper White using Versa Mark and then adding Silver Emboss.  Add some Rhinestones and you have a beautiful card!

Thank you for looking in today.  Have a blessed Sunday!
