Hello Stampin’ Friends,

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend!  I have another Christmas card to share with you today.  I guess my mind is just on Christmas these days … I’ve been placing candy orders at work (for Christmas) and I’m preparing for my Holiday Retreat at home, so … Christmas, Christmas, Christmas.  I don’t mind, it’s quite fun.

I did however have a bit of a break today as our town celebrated Trick or Treat.  I had an Alien invasion … and he brought his kitty along!  lol …  It is my youngest grandson Isaiah and his sister, Hailey.

Here is my little alien revealed… A bit of a shock for Hailey I see!  Makes for good scrapbooking captions, doesn’t it!!

We didn’t have too many trick or treaters, so as I was busy designing cards (Eileen was cutting) … I set the bowl of candy out and let them have fun!  To my surprise, there was still candy remaining in the bowl.

Now … on to today’s card share.  It is a simple card but heck, when you have to make a bunch of cards, simple is the way to go.

I started with a Whisper White base, then embossed the next layer of Whisper White with the “Northern Flurry” Embossing Folder.  I love the way layering white on white looks.

Believe it or not, the strip of designer paper was a scrap piece left from my club cards this month.  It comes from the “Season of Style” paper pack in the Holiday Catalog.

I then topped off the designer paper with the “Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding” … this is one of my favorites for ribbon.  The seam binding lays nicely and ties so easily.  One tip though … when tying your bow, don’t pull from the ends because it frays easily, grab it closer to the knot.

I looked around a bit for a greeting that I thought would like nice with this card… then I found it in the “Warmth and Wonder” stamp set.  This is a Hostess set from the Holiday catalog.

You can your “Warmth & Wonder” Stamp set for free with qualifying sales / order of $150 or more.

Ask me how you can do an on-line party (lindaluvs2stamp@aol.com) then we’ll get you this set and more for free!  We all need supplies for our Christmas cards, so get in touch with your friends and let’s get together!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend,
