Java Great Holiday - Jaded Blossom Guest Designer

Hi there!!  I am so excited to be a guest designer on the Jaded Blossom Blog today!  I have a Christmas project to share with you but the beauty of this project is that it can be used for all sorts of different occasions!  I just happened to use this as a way to give a Christmas gift to my daughter's piano teacher.

This is a "double diagonal pocket card" and you can find the tutorial to make one of these yourself HERE.  There are two different options to this card and I chose the variation that opens up to have room on the inside to write a message.

I used several Jaded Blossom products on my card - 

coffee cup - Coffee Dies 

sentiments - Happy Brew Year

tag - Luggage Tag Dies

In one pocket I stuck a tag and in the back pocket I put a Starbucks gift card.  My daughter was able to write a message to her teacher on the inside.  I embellished with some snowflake ephemera, ribbon, jingle bells and Nuvo drops.  Thanks so much for stopping by today!!

Have a Sweet Christmas - SAT dt

Hey there!!  Today is my turn to post over on the Stamp Anniething Blog and I have a fun Christmas card to share with you.

I used two different stamp images for my card.  I used "Felicity - What's Cooking?" for my girl.  I then used the santa hat from "Paige - Holiday Magic".  My paper is from Doodlebug and I also used a sentiment from the same paper pad and cut it apart.  I finished it up with some snowflake sequins.  

Thanks for stopping by today!

This stamp set is perfect for so many different awareness causes.  I created my card with Thyroid Cancer Awareness in mind.  The colors are pink, purple and turquoise.  We have some family members currently going through this.  Thankfully this kind of cancer does not usually spread and is treatable by removing the thyroid.
