I love this little pumpkin!  Sometimes I add a battery votive candle. The one on the left looks lacy because of the border punch I used.  They both have leaves made with the 5-Petal Punch, but you can make these without any special tools if you don’t mind cutting simple leaves free-hand.

I can decorate my home with them from October through November, then it folds flat for storage until next year.

I couldn’t wait to try this.  I bought a flat porcelain ornament from my local hobby store.  Then I stamped and embosses with Wild Wasabi and Pewter.  It made wonderful gifts!  I kept one for our tree.  Love it!

What a fun way to give someone a gift card for their favorite coffee place!  Pull the lid off this cup and it lifts to show the gift card and a quick note.  Love it!  I know I saw this online somewhere.  I wish I remembered who to give credit to.

Embossed Resist – Hello Doily 10-8-11

This card is really gorgeous in person, if I do say so myself.  You would think there’s an actual doily on the card!  Stamp the doily, emboss with White embossing powder, and keep on hand for just about any event.  Sponge with an appropriate color, add as sentiment, and you’re ready to go.  This photo shows a spider and Basic Black sponging for Halloween, 5-Petal Punched flowers and Cherry Cobbler sponging for Christmas, A Basic Pearl embellishment and Crumb Cake sponging for a lovely wedding card, Pretty in Pink or Pink Pirouette sponging would make a nice card for a baby shower, 5-Petal Punched flowers and Perfect Plum or Old Olive for perhaps a birthday or even get well.  You get the idea.  This is a great card to keep on hand!  And to think it requires very few tools: Hello Doily and Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp sets, Whisper White or Naturals White card stock, White embossing powder, a Heat Tool, and one or more stamp pads.
