Hello! How are you? How has your week been going so far? Is all your shopping done for Thanksgiving!? I hope all is well at your house! The DH is feeling so much better but I'm not sure if he will be able to eat everything on the Thanksgiving plate…but I know he's gonna make a good effort! We love Thanksgiving at our house. Can't wait!
I have a bunch o' cards to share tonight. I was totally inspired by the December Hero Arts Contest! The themes this month were 1) tags, or 2) Bling, or 3) A very pretty pastel color palette. Well…you guys know me by now, so you know I combined all three themes into my entries! Hahaha. I went to Paper Garden and got the most beautiful shades of Stardream papers and came home…and let it all fly! Snowflakes and punches and glitter, oh my! I had a fun time with this one!
I made three cards with this look…combining all the colors in the challenge palette. White snowflakes stamped onto the Stardream paper is so pretty!
Pretty Martha Stewart Punch snowflakes…
Trying to decide which colors to put where…
I think the pink card is my favorite. I am LOVING pink for Christmas this year!
Next I got out my fun mitten punch and put some snowflakes on them! I added some silver Stickles for more pop! I just bought that giant snowflake punch!!!
One last one…I really just couldn't stop myself with that paper!!!
I snapped this quick pic to show the holiday crafty mess I have going on here in the stamping room! It's overflowing everywhere…even on the floor! Yikes! Also, you will note one giant kitty cat planted right in front of the space heater! That's how he rolls….
Thank you for coming by today! In case I don't see ya before…Have a wonderful Thanksgiving! I am very thankful for your kindness and warmth!

My gosh, look at that tub of stamps!! I want to come play at your house, Wanda! I can only imagine all the goodies I could get into there. I’m smiling because my craft room looks a lot like yours right now. I literally have to step over piles on the floor in there. 🙂
Your cards are so, so adorable! Love that pretty color combo for the holidays. And I’m with you, so loving pink this year. Love your combination of punches and stamping. You have so much incredible detail here using only those supplies, glitter, and cardstock. You rock, my friend!
