Card: Love Is Friendship Set To Music

I'm linking this card to 3 challenges this week. The challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge is "Emboss It", the challenge at the Silhouette Blog is a Valentine's or love theme (the Silhouette shapes are listed below), and the challenge at Curtain Call is "Love Letter."  As you can see in the close-up, the background behind the sentiment is dry embossed and the sentiment itself is heat embossed with clear embossing powder over brown ink.  The paper is DCWV "Mariposa" - this particular glittered one is just gorgeous!  The butterfly on the inside is fussy cut from the Mariposa paper.

Card: Wintry Mix

I love snowflake images!  I can't stop collecting them whether they be stamps, dies, Silhouette shapes, embossing folders or embellishments!  This "Happy Birthday" sentiment from Verve is probably my favorite among all my birthday sentiments.  This week I'm linking this card to Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge #327 and to Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday Challenge which is "Ice Inspiration."

ATC : Sleighing!

Okay, so I'm not the most dutiful blogger.  I hope this year I will pick up the pace.  There are plenty of my older projects that I've never posted and this is one of them.  This ATC is from the January 2013 swap with my friend and faithful enabler, Donna.  Our theme was "Sledding or Sleighing."
