My Deer Friend…

I’ve been away all week and am just home from holidays so no {C’est Bon} entry for you today but I do have a darling card for you that I made before I left. We had a wonderful time at the lake apart from another nasty sinus infection but I made the best of it. Once I unpack and find my camera…I’m hoping to have some photos worth sharing. I just couldn’t believe how fast the time went by. If you sent me e-mails while I was gone…I’ll get started on those Monday. I dragged a computer up there as well as a wireless modem but unfortunately…the trees etc. really interfered with reception. Thanks for your patience!

My Dear Friend

This card uses the Kim Hughes Christmas Critters set from Cornish Heritage Farms . I just love this darling set and while it was designed for Christmas…the animals are perfect for winter and throughout the year.

Quick Tip: Take away the snowflakes on this design and change the blue and brown to pink and brown for a fun friendship cards

This design uses a Basic Grey Fruitcake 6×6 paper pad, some quick stamping and coloring paired up with Creative Impressions felt snowflakes and brads.

Cornish Heritage Farms is hosting another on-line class…this time a project by Lisa Strahl and featuring a Kim Hughes stamp set. You can sign up and check out the details here.

    I think I’m going to have to break down and get those felt snowflakes. They’re just too darn cute.

    I just came across your blog today while searching for uses for lined paper. Too late to enter your giveaway for the stamps, but what a coincidence since I also just discovered Cornish Heritage Farms this week because of some stamps featured in the latest PaperCrafts STAMP IT! Cards issue! I will definitely bookmark your site as there are so many great things to browse through! :)
