Silent Night, Holy Night Christmas Card

 Hello all,

and welcome to my blog! It has been a while since my last post.

I would like to share with you today one of the few Holiday cards that I made this Holiday Season.


I used Lemoncraft papers, Heartfelt Creations Poinsettia die, Cricut machine to cut out this interesting 

shape card, and a bunch of Whimsy Stamps pine tree dies, along with pine branch dies.


I used snowtext on the flower and pine trees to add some texture to them.


The sentiment is from Lemoncraft papers pad.


One more look at the finished card and the protective box that comes with it....

Sun, Moon and Stars Birthday Card

 Hello all,

I would like to share a card that I made for a friend's birthday. She loved it, by the way :)


I used gold texture paste to create the background and star mold and hot glue to create the dimensional stars.



To make it even more interesting I made it to be an isle card and the birthday sentiment was put in place to hold it upright.



I added Cricut cut of the Moon and Sun, some ribbon bow, additional dimensional embellishments to finish the desing.

Help for Ukraine

 Hello,

Ever since the horrific war in Ukraine started, I have been donating all the proceeds from my Etsy store card sales, and matching sales amounts with our own donations.

I was hoping I would do better, but it is still better than nothing.



The cards in the video are the ones that have been sold so far. I hope to sell way more, so that we can help even more the brave Ukrainian people.

 Героям Слава!

Take care...
