Hello there...Oh how I love creating...yesterday was a quiet day around our house so I spent quite a bit of time getting inky. My first card is inspired by the new PTI set Maile Belle's has coming out called Grand Ampersand. I love the set, but wanted to see if I could make a Christmas card without buying the new set (and I may have had other things in the cart from PTI!). So off I went. This was made using a few PaperSmooches sets. Love the end result. Look for more cards similar to this one in the near future.
My second card (I apologize for the very blurry photo) is a set of thank you notes I made for Pat's mom. Her friends and family have already reached out to help with Henry's recovery so she'll definitely be in need of thank you notes. I love one layer cards...perfect for mailing.
Ingredients:
Christmas card: PaperSmooches Christmas Sampler, We Connect
Thank you card: PaperSmooches Calico and Many Thanks

These both rock! Love the awesome use of the ampersand on the first card and the 3 pieces of patterned paper on the side look so cool! The second card is perfect - so sweet and heartfelt.
How fab for you to have some quiet time! And you spent it well. I do like your thank you cards and if I remember rightly Pat's Mum likes blue??
I love what you did with your patterned paper on your first card!!! Fabulous!
Two amazing cards as usual!
Your cards are so lovely... Making a note of that lovely left side panel of the first one!
{your earlier comment meant A LOT to me... thanks so much ♥}
Love how you took Maile's layout and made it work with paper smooches stamps! It looks really cute!
eek! You CASEd that card already! Wow, you're fast! It was one of my favs from the release :) LOVE how you made it into a Christmas card...have I started calling mine yet? ;) Darling and thoughtful set for your MIL...I know she will love it and the thought put into it :) ox
Both so pretty! I especially enjoy the treatment you gave to the ribbon on the first card Lynn!
Way to use what you've got for the first card and just love the thank you cards. Trusting your FIL is recovering well and what a wonderful card for your MIL to say thanks to those who are helping out :) Two great one layer cards!
Both fabulous, I love how you used the washi on your first card, that inspires me to do the same. Beautiful blues on your thank you card!
Fabulous cards, I like the panel in the first one and the colors of the second, so subtle and soothing :)
I love the ampersand card with it's funky border. I'm trying my hand at one layer cards but not doing to well. Yours are lovely.
Love both cards Lynn. The holiday card is awesome. Hope your FIL is feeling even better today.
Your cards are gorgeous, even more so in person!! Thanks!!
LOVE BOTH! The & is so BIG right now in trend land!
