Stampin Thursday Mystery Card Nov. 18, 2021

 Every third Thursday I do a Stampin' Thursday Mystery card I really love the Mystery Stamping...putting a card together clue by clue. The end result is always such a surprise. I confess that sometimes I'm not so pleased with the way my 'mystery card' turned out but I can always take the layout and make one that is more to my taste! But I do love the adventure!!

One more penguin card!!

 I wanted to make one more Penguin card to showcase the products that will be used at the upcoming Penguin Party Nov. 20. The last day to RSVP is Sunday, Nov. 20. With the party you will receive 1/2 package of the adorable Penguin Playmates DSP which was a Sale-A-Bration item and is no longer available...except with this party!

The cardfront is Misty Moonlight  3 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored at 4 1/4. 

The front is 4 x 5 1/4 and is diecut using the Picture This die which creates the windows.

Cranberry Sauce - Whole berry or jelly??

 Thanksgiving is almost here!! And a staple of that anticipated meal is cranberry sauce. But which one will be on your table? Do you prefer the whole berry type or the jelly type? And do you make your own or use the canned? 

                                                                       

I'd love to hear from you. Please comment on your favorite!!

Another Eden's Garden Card & video

I'm in love with this collection. I love that the paper has gold highlights in it. Every sheet has the gilded gold accents on one side. Here's a sampling of the paper. It shows the front and the back of each sheet of the Designer Series Paper. The two circles show the colors used - Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen.

Here's the card I demonstrated on this morning's FB Live (Nov. 4, 2021) It's a funfold card so I'm showing the card front then the card unfolded! This video is also available for viewing on my YouTube Channel.
