I LOVE the Lotus Blossom Stamp Set!  I tend to buy flower sets and this is the best flower set ever!  It’s essentially a three step flower and a free SAB item.

I used Basic Gray for the first step of the flower.  Bermuda Bay was used for the second step, and Bermuda Bay stamped off once, was used for step three.  I made my card Note Card size    (5 x 3 1/2).  Don’t limit yourself to only Whisper White and Crumb Cake Note Cards.  The white piece is cut with the third smallest Oval Framelit.  The Bermuda Bay ring is cut using the fourth and fifth smallest Oval Framelits.

I made the envelope with the Envelope Punch Board and used Confetti Celebration DSP on the flap.  Who doesn’t love a matching envelope?

I’m sending this card to a dear friend, who made my family a delicious dinner while I was out of town last week.  Thanks Janene!

Here is a simple thank you card that will come in handy after Christmas.  It would be very thoughtful to make several of these and give them to a teacher as a Christmas gift.   Endless Wishes is a must have stamp set.  I love the snow flakes and the font of the sentiments. On this card I used the Watercolor Thank You single stamp.  I won this stamp at the Stampin’ Up! convention last summer.

I used the Frosted Sequins and Rhinestone Jewels to add extra bling.

Here is a gift certificate holder I made using the same colors.

Here’s the invitation my family and friends will be receiving this year for our annual Thanksgiving feast at my house.  The leaves are made with the Autumn Accents Bigz die.  This is a die that will always stay in my collection.

I  used the Holiday Invitation stamp set to make this invitation and also the invitations for my daughter’s Halloween party.  Check back tomorrow and I’ll show you the Halloween invitation.

I used the five point flower from Flower Fair Framelits to make the turkey feathers for my next project.  I also used the owl punch, 1 3/4 Scallop circle and Modern Label punches.
