Nature’s Poem Christmas Cards

The Rooted in Nature stamp set is very versatile and works well for birthday, sympathy, masculine and even Christmas cards.  Today I am sharing the Christmas card set that I made.  I used Gold Foil Sheets as an accent on each card.

Rooted in Nature Stamp Set, Simple Stripe Embossing Folder, Stitched Shapes Framelits, Layering Circles Framelits, Christmas
The background is done with the Simple Stripes Embossing Folder (it’s carrying over into the Annual Catalog – yay).

Rooted in Nature Stamp Set, Softly Falling Embossing Folder, Lots of Labels Framelits, Christmas
This card uses the Softly Falling Embossing Folder (which is continuing) and the Lots of Labels Framelits (which is retiring, so get it ordered if you don’t have it).

Rooted in Nature Stamp Set, Layering Ovals Framelits, Christmas
For this card I cut a template using the Layering Ovals Framelits and then sponged Tranquil Tide in the oval opening.  The stamped the tree twice inside the oval and then another tree on scrap Whisper White and cut it out with the coordinating Nature’s Roots Framelits.

It was fun making Christmas cards in April and this set works great to give that Christmas feel.

Nature’s Poem Phuket Elephant Sanctuary

For my Nature’s Poem presentation they wanted me to make a scrapbook.  I tried to decide what pictures I wanted to use to go with the suite.  I decided on my series of pictures from our trip to the Phuket Elephant Sanctuary last summer on the Thailand Incentive Trip.  It was my favorite part of the trip by far and this series of pictures is my husband, Tony, and I feeding the elephants and “posing” for a picture with them.  I thought it was cool for about 15 seconds and then the elephant just wanted the banana I was holding and get throwing her trunk at me to get it.  I started out smiling and the final picture says it all.

This suite has so many great elements it is so fun to work with.  I can’t wait for all of you to be able to purchase it.

I made a fun little Hershey’s Nugget holder with the cardstock pack and the designer paper.

Nature’s Poem Framed Art

I had the honor of being a Product Showcase Presenter for our Milwaukee On Stage Event.  I shared a new product suite from the upcoming Annual Catalog.  My suite is Nature’s Poem.  There are so many fabulous products in this suite — stamp set, framelits, designer paper, cardstock pack, twine and embellishments.  I wanted to start with one of my favorite projects — if you follow me you know that I love to do framed art.  This suite was wonderful for that.  I used one of the designer papers for the background and added my layers from there.

I added a little look of texture with the Burlap background stamp.  I love how this turned out.  You’ll have to wait until June 1st to order the product to make this but it is definitely worth the wait.
