Holiday Favorites

I love when Jennifer McGuire shares links to some of her favorite things. I thought I would share links of some my favorite cards I've seen out there in blog land. Hope you enjoy them:
  • This card by Susan.  Perfect card for my father-in-law...it has been CASEd for him and will be in the mail shortly.
  • Laurie is unbelievably creative.  Check out this card.
  • Cristina's creative use of scraps on this card. And I love the clean design on this card.
  • You have to check out Jay Gee's site...so much inspiration from her...like this card and her design team's inspiration.
  • Adorable tag by Jaclyn.
  • And more amazing tags this time by Maureen.
  • A gorgeous CAS card by Els.  Be sure to stop by her blog...she is posted an advent calendar box each day.  Lots of great inspiration.
  • And last but certainly not least...check out Emily's cards.  She is unbelievable at layering lots of elements yet making her cards look very clean.
And here is a fun birthday card for one of the men in my life.  My hubby and brothers all love to play poker.  Not a full house on this card...but I think one of them will appreciate it.  Time to fill up the birthday card stash. 
Ingredients:  Crate Paper DSP; Stampin' Up Kraft; Ranger Distress Ink Antique Linen; Vintage Buttons; PTI Twine and Kraft Paper

Your card ROCKS Lynn, lots of card players in my family too! I always love to click on the links Jennifer M. does on her blog, although it's gotten me in trouble more than once (spending money lol!) I'm glad to see you doing this too :)

Maureen said...

aw, your sweet card reminds me of the saying, "not playing with a full deck!" LOL Thanks for the shout out about my tags...you are too sweet! Your dh card is reminding me I need to get going on Tony's Christmas card...one of his presents arrived today from Amazon...a Cuisinart popcorn popper (he loves popcorn)...our Costca had run out of them, but Amazon was cheaper!!! And delivered right to my door!!

How do you come up with all these ideas - amazing. <maybe I'll buy one - if you can spare - for Joe Schaefer - he plays a lot of cards.
