I’ve a list a mile long of stuff to accomplish today, and for every thing I cross OFF the list I’ve added one or two more! It’s not suppose to work this way! LOL! I’m one of those people who wants everything done before we leave on vacation, so my mind is clear AND stuff doesn’t hit me smack in the face when we come home. Coming home is always hard enough with the laundry and suitcases, so walking in to the house with things not accomplished before we leave can weigh you down. Will I get everything on my list accomplished???? Maybe not but I’m sure going to try!
A couple of weeks ago Chris did a FB LIVE with me on our group page – Stamp. Ink. Paper – Creating With Pam and Lola. I’ve saved her posts on purpose cause I knew it would get hard to create projects the closer it is to vacation. Chris does a wonderful job with her paper crafting which you might have seen if you are part of out group page! Not a member??? Keep reading because there is a link below to connect with us!!!
Chris enjoys creating cards with a specific person in mind so her card reflects their interests in life. The card above is for her father’s birthday which falls during a big hunting season in north Missouri – Deer season. Being from a rural community as well, this card is specially made with her father in mind!
She carried the DSP to the inside of the card as well, getting as much mileage out of the Spendid Autumn DSP package as she could. Her color choices of Mossy Meadow and Wild Wheat are perfect for this time of year, AND she has discovered a love for Basic Beige cardstock versus Very Vanilla and White.
The “grateful” label comes from the Iconic Imagery bundle, but the Cajun Craze background die is from the Reindeer Fun bundle – just turned upside down!!! Notice the leaves??? Stamped and diecut from the scraps of DSP so nothing goes to waste! Clever use of our paper and dies for sure!

Final Thoughts….
I know that people receiving Chris’s cards are thrilled with her talents and the time she takes to make her cards perfect for the one receiving them. When our grandson Cal turned 1 Chris made a PERFECT card for his birthday theme – Lord Of The Rings – One Birthday To Rule Them All. It was the perfect hobbit card for a little hobbit who was celebrating his special day. Our son and daughter in law simply loved it. Thank you Chris for sharing your paper crafting talents, and being part of our stamping community!!!
Until tomorrow, have a great day, and God Bless!
