Snow Front Birthday

I know I should share the card first, but our sweet little Nike has to come first today.  So, before I share today's card, I have sad news to share.  I know several of you have asked about Nike's health in the past and I've appreciated it all so very much.  Sadly, on Tuesday, December 10th, but we had to say goodbye to our little guy.  He was such a sweet and loyal little dog.  If hubby and I were in different rooms, he would find a place that he could keep an eye on us both, or at least try.  Couldn't ask for a better friend.

He will be greatly missed.  Rest in Peace little man and remember, people wearing hats are good people too!  :)

So, on to today's card.  This is a birthday card for a friend of ours.  Hopefully it will arrive in time since I'm running a little late with all the issues surrounding Nike.

OH... and remember - FREE SHIPPING TODAY ONLY!!!  Use December Hostess Code 6WT3VT4Z for a free gift directly from me!

Magnolia Anniversary

A beautiful Magnolia for my wonderful Aunt and Uncle celebrating their anniversary later this week.  Even though I've made a few of these magnolias, I think this is the first of the big ones I've colored and die cut, but hey, I can't remember what I had for breakfast most days!

Recipe:
Whisper White Thick cardstock - 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Petal Pink - 4" x 5 1/4
Whisper White - 3 3/4" x 5" - embossed with Country Floral*

* a tip to make this embossing folder even more beautiful, spritz it with a little Frost White Shimmer Paint in a Stampin' Spritzer .  Fill with water or rubbing alcohol and a couple of drops of shimmer.  When the paper has a bit of moisture to it, the emboss is even more intense and the Shimmer gives it shine!

Magnolia stamped with Memento Black and colored with Petal Pink Stampin' Blends combo and Old Olive Combo.  The center is colored with Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends and the stem with Soft Suede.

Thank you for looking in today!  It's a Tuesday!

Climbing Roses Sympathy

This beautiful stamp set is another that will be retiring and not returning.  I've barely had a chance to really play with it, so I better get with it!

I found out on Friday evening that the husband of a friend of mine, Lisa, passed away this week, so I decided that I could make a nice sympathy card using Climbing Roses and the words from Well Said, which thankfully is carrying over into the new Annual Catalog.

Recipe:
Whisper White Thick cardstock - 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Shimmery White - 4" x 5 1/4", plus scraps for additional roses
Crumb Cake scrap for the Trellis
Old Olive scraps for leaves

Stamps: 
Climbing Roses Bundle from the Occasions Catalog (retiring)
Well Said Bundle from the Occasions Catalog (carrying over!)

Ink:
Memento Black

Stampin' Blends (light and dark):
Old Olive
Pumpkin Pie
Daffodil Delight
Cherry Cobbler

Thank you for looking in today.  Please say a prayer for Lisa as she's going through this difficult time.
