Happy December 1st! Can you believe that Christmas is a short 24 days from now??
Wow the year has gone fast!!
**I was honored to be asked by the lovely Cindy Echtinaw to make some cards for her Store.** Cindy owns the Stampingscrapping Store in Alto, MI, USA. Cindy also has the MOST FABULOUS online store I have ever been to! If you need any stamping or scrapping supplies and want the FASTEST service and the BEST PRICES you must go to her store. Talk about SERVICE - it will rock your socks off!!!!
Cindy is now carrying the famous HOUSE MOUSE STAMPS. You can join her new House Mouse Stamp CLUB for 12 months; 6 months; or sign up and buy one a month :o) I have very happily made a couple of Christmas Cards for her store.
The first card is a 'Joy Fold Card' and uses the stamp called ' Lip Smackin' Relaxin'. I have used this stamp before and love it! The second card is an 'Easel Card' and used the stamp called 'Love Bunny'. It was a challenge to make both these stamps into Christmas Cards - hope I have done them well..........

Oooooh what fun to look at!! I just love the House Mouse cards and I must pull out my xmas ones this year. Thanks for reminding me that I had some. LOL!! I really like the red card. Very rich colors but I love both fold cards. No wonder your friend asked you to make some cards for her store. You are so talented!!
Dear Candy
occasionally I landed on your blog and didn't want to go without writing you a word. I very like the artwork you do and am sure to take a look again from time to time.
By the way, right now I have a Christmas Candy to give away, if you like try your luck; http://creawitch.blogspot.com/2009/11/weihnachts-candy.html

These creations are so beautiful, and such adorable images! Thanks for sharing.
Oh Candy, I really love your work! It's just so nice to see non-Christmas stamps being used in a holiday card. It reminds us all that with a little creativity we can use the stamps we have. I also love the different folds - makes for an interesting card for sure! As always, your coloring is wonderfully soft. I can't wait to see what you come up with next :)
Wow Candy, these cards are so adorable. I love them all and the images are just so sweet. Thanks for sharing. Hugs Jodie from Oz
