Today we have 2 mini sets to share with you. Up first is Debbie Corbari's newest set called, Fleece Navibaa...Omg! I am loving these cute sheep!! Here is one I did, not a Christmas one though:

I made a Thank 'ewe' card! And I had to add the black sheep of the family too, haha! The white sheep are colored with Picket Fence distress marker onto Gina K's craft cardstock and I love how it turned out! I went back over the outline using a fine copic marker...because I color so bad and got it on that which made it look dull...so fixed it! :D

Up next is the new mini set, Cheers!. I combined the two sets for this card:

The tree is from the Cheers mini set. Then I used all of the sheep from Debbie's set and made the bigger two look like they are jumping over the tree...:D Super Fun card to make!

Ok, ready for more awesome eye candy? Here ya go, just follow these links:

Up first today is Melanie Muenchinger's newest set, Beyond Baskets 2...this set, along with the basket sets....well, your possibilities are endless! This is what I did for today:

I filled my bag with snowflakes! I also used some snowflake images from Theresa's new set, Let It Snow...I used an acetate sheet and white stayz on ink to stamp those to make an overlay for my card. Then punched out a few snowflakes and arranged them in the bag. I took a craft knife and made a small slit to add the twine like it is underneath the top of the bag. I LOVE this bag of snow! I sure hope we get some this year! :D

Up next is Rupa Shevde's new set, Christmas Joy. This is my card for today:

I did some heat embossing with silver embossing powder, and also used the fancy oval die from SB and dry embossed it around the image. Added a piece of vellum that I stamped the sentiment on over the bottom edge of the image...this will be super easy to mail too!
