Celebrating my 1000th Blog Post!

Homespun Close-up
 
   Hello friends! Today is a big day for me, my 1000th blog post! (And it is my son Cameron's birthday which is super awesome also.) I really can't believe I have written out 1,000 blog posts. Where did the time go? My first post was in 2008. Six years later I am here today, as in love with this hobby as ever and I am so thankful for the friendships I have made along the way.
 
Since Christmas cards are my favorite, I thought I would share a couple of those with ya. My first card features the Papertrey Ink Make-It Market County Fair quilting die and coordinating stamps. I also used the pine bough stamp builder from the PTI set Love Lives Here: Holiday.

My second card is a less traditional card featuring stamps from the Papertrey Ink stamp sets Circle Scribbles and Holiday Photo Finishers.

My third card, a Thank You card features the PTI metal plate Mighty Oak. I used the plate to create my stencil. Next using a sponge and Gold Delicata ink I sponged the stencil to create my golden tree. The sentiment is from the Wet Paint set that was stamped and heat set using black embossing powder.
 
 
Thanks
