Look at all my love cards! |
Although I love all the cards that arrive, my heart understandably beats faster when I open the mail box and there's an envelope from one of my stampin' friends. I can't wait to get home and check out the treasure within .
Here are some of the awesome cards I received in this year's Southern batch. I know you'll love them as much as I did.

Adel Klassen from my Cal Am Convention Girls group created a beautiful textured card for our card swap using the Coredinations Early Espresso Designer Card Stock and the Lovely as a Tree Stamp Set. She did a Shaving Cream Technique card to go with the swap.

My wonderful and uber talented sister Heather created this delightful card for me using the Textured Impressions Holiday Frames Embossing Folder and the Ornament Keepsakes stamp set and matching framelits (available as a carry over in the Spring Mini Catalogue). As you can see from the closeup shot she added some cute detail to the top of the ornament with a little bird die cut from the Silver Glimmer Paper and some leaves from the Little Leaves Sizzlet die cut.

A dear friend, Betty Lee, created this beautiful card featuring the glorious tree and vintage sentiment from the Christmas Lodge stamp set. Although you can't see it clearly in this picture the sentiment is embossed in Gold embossing powder and the gorgeous double scallop trim was achieved by layering a piece of brushed gold and certainly celery cardstocks that had been punched out with the Scallop Edge Border Punch and then offset in layers. Very clever and oh so pretty!

Wow, Penny, you really got a wonderful batch of cards! You were shown a lot of love, weren't you?! It's so nice to know you have so many great friends.
Thanks, also, for the love you left on my blog!
Hugs,

Penny, All these cards are beautiful but I love Joni's card. I have never seen this technique. Would love to learn it.
