It’s the time of year for crazy, mixed up schedules.  This post is far from my normal Tuesday post, but had video ready so wanted to get it out to you all.  This beautiful card was another Stamp-a-Stack card, and one of my favorites.  I especially love the doves from the Peace On Earth dies.  The glimmer paper adds the perfect amount of sparkle.

Forgive the Thanksgiving references and the little blooper at the beginning of the video.  I filmed this video a week or so ago, but got too busy to get it uploaded,  Now the Christmas rush is at full steam ahead.  I will try and get a video made next week but no promises.  Have a wonderful weekend.  Blessings!

Hello stampin friends.  I have started preparing cards for my annual Christmas Stamp-a-Stack being held on November 9th.  I think the Decorative Tree Bundle is so lovely, and the foil really makes the card pop.  In my ongoing effort to use up what I have the video features green foil.  Several years ago for Christmas Stampin Up sold green and red foil.  I still have a couple sheets left so that is what is used in the video.  The picture below shows the card in gold foil.  We will be doing one red and one green at the Stamp-a-Stack.

Hello all!  Ready for another Terrific Tuesday card?  Since I totally skipped “Christmas in July” I am starting my Christmas cards in August.  Today’s card is inspired by Angie Juda of ChicnScratch.com.  Thanks Angie!  As lots of you know, I participate in several craft shows during the fall.  Gift card holders are always one of my best sellers.  This idea is great as it could be for any occasion, and also for a masculine theme.  Here ya go!

Isaiah 40:28-31

²⁸ Do you not know?  Have you not heard?  The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.
²⁹ He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.
³⁰ Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;
³¹ but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.  They will soar on wings like eagles;
    they will run and not grow weary,
