NEW from American Crafts!

American Crafts’ new Cutup Trimmers feature premium blades and secure cutting rails that lock paper into place, guaranteeing accuracy and precision while cutting. All blades and cutting bars are replaceable.


American Crafts’ new Knock Outs Border Punches create crisp and detailed patterned borders. Interchangeable punches and coordinating snap-in wing guides allow for reusability and compact storage of the punch base. (More snap in choices to ship soon!)


CHAP ~ Inspired by clothing fabric, Chap is a collection with crisp, sharp style. A warm color palette--combined with a vignette effect for depth--makes this an ideal line for recording Autumn memories. With medium to small patterns, the line is perfect for cardmaking or scrapbooking the boys in your life.






Add a festive touch to scrapbook pages and cards, parties, and home décor in seconds with Flutterbys pre-made, mini paper garlands. In birthday and baby.


With Love, by Pebbles. A little be Valentines but not too much, beautiful double sided papers with several kraft choices. The embellishments are adorable including mini clothespins and kraft pockets.

Crate Paper, Inc.'s Farmhouse Collection packs and 6x6 paper pads are here! This collection features such warm cozy colors! Just love it! Got the beautiful button packs, too!

Happy Wednesday everyone!  Nikki here, and today I'm going to share with you some ideas for very simple Christmas cards!

First up is a card that features Pink Paislee papers and dimensional sticker, brown Tim Holtz ink and a tiny stamp from the "Christmas" stamp set by Karen Foster Designs.

My next card is even more simple-- one layer, with one stamp in one color!  Too add a little extra something, I stamped the image on the inside of the card after I used a die to cut an oval from the front panel.  I glued on a plastic rhinestone to the satin bow for some extra shine.  The reindeer image is from the same set as the snowflake above.

This next bunch is a set of three skinny cards made by using (1) 8.5 x 11" piece of card stock as the base for all three, accents from a piece of decorative paper from Echo Park, and dimensional felt stickers from SEI.  The Merry Christmas sentiment is from a stamp set by Pebbles, called Welcome Christmas.
The buttons on this one are from my personal stash, but make a fun alternative border-- especially when you have a busy patterned paper that can be the star of the show!
You can't get much more simple than this!  A red background panel, small piece of patterned card stock with scallops punched at the bottom, and a tiny white card stock border, topped with a dimensional felt sticker.
This card is also super simple--  red card stock topped with a panel of patterned paper, a strip of aqua card stock for a pop of color, and a square of white topped with a dimensional felt sticker.

Happy Holidays!
Love, Nikki

My two Christmas book classes that were on the calendar for this Saturday, December 10th have been rescheduled for January 14th. I know how busy everyone is before the holiday with shopping, wrapping and all things Christmas, so we are hopeful this will make it easier for people to attend. Plus as an added bonus, just think of all the great pictures you'll have to fill up those books. I hope to see you at there.

Thanx and Happy Holidays,
Lisa
