Today's cards are the ones hubby and I made for our parents. The card base is an approx. A5 gatefold of Basic Black (but 12" along the long edge to make the scoring and folding easier at 3" and 9"), matted with Winter Wonderland Specialty DSP. Photos of hubby, Bess...

Yesterday I shared a couple of different versions of floating ornament cards. Today I'm back with a floating snowman 🙂 The base card is an A6 portrait of Night of Navy, matted with Season of Cheer DSP and framed with Ovals Collection ovals, die cut from Night...

Festival of Trees isn't a new stamp set. It's been around for a little while and is available in the main catalogue but here it's been jazzed up and given a new lease of life with extra goodies from the Autumn/Winter catty. The card base is an A6 landscape of Smoky...
