Welcome! I'm glad you have hopped on over!
Today we are Showcasing:
Theresa Momber's
Peace & Joy
This was the first card I created with Theresa's set.
I used Kraft & Dark Choc. Pure Luxury Card Stock.
PP from The Simple Things patterned paper pack.
Stamped & fussy cute out the bird after coloring with
Spectrum Noir Markers & Pencils. For the background
I used the sentiments and a holly image and stamped in
Dk. Choc. ink and then I would stamp it again so some
would be lighter. Sentiment is stamped in Dk. Choc. Ink.
I also used DK. Choc. Twine. Added bling & a Snow flake.
*******
Next I used Faded Brick, White, Black Onyx, &
Kraft Pure Luxury Card Stock. I wanted a wood looking
background. I used Kraft Paper and scored the lines then
used Inks in Faded Brick, Dk. Choc., & White. I
dry embossed a piece of velum & added the Black & White Twine
from Gina K Designs. Using the dies to create a
circle in Black Onyx & inverted scallop in Kraft
I stamped the Pinecone image and colored with Spectrum Noir
Markers, added some snow & bling.

The snow and woodgraining are perfect with the pine cone!
Gorgeous! Love the weather wood background.
Your cards are beautiful. Thank you for sharing your creativity.
This set is stunning! I love to see the cardinals at Christmas. Your cards are so beautiful.
The cardinal really pops on the kraft backgrounds! Thanks for giving us a different look with this great stamp set!
Beautiful card. There isn't one thing I don't love about it.
Both of your cards are beautiful. I am just realizing the versatility of this set. Thanks for sharing.
I love the the colors in the first card but the weathered wood technique on the second card is wonderful.
WOWZERS! Love the layers and design of the cardinal card!
Great cards. I can see so many possibilities for this set. I love the snowy pinecone.
Very nice cards, love them both, Great Job!
Wonderful use of colors, dimension and bling, love them both!!
Beautiful set of cards! The fussy cutting on the cardinal is worth the time you took to make the bird stand out on the card. Love both cards.
Loved both cards. The woodgrain really sets the pinecone off, and the cardinal card is beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Don't know which card I like better. Both are beautiful

These are both really gorgeous.
Thank you very much for sharing your creativity, Karen. I love how you have used PP without fear. Awesome way to take advantage of the set by stamping the sentiments and holly with a tone-on-tone technique. Great cards. Cheers!
I love both cards. The cardinal card looks so country like. Great job.
I really like these cards. They are a little different and so pretty.
Love your cards, they are beautiful! I really enjoy everyone using velum, such great ideas!

Gorgeous cardinal against the kraft and dark chocolate. Love that snowflake,too.
Seriously, WOW. I love the nature feel to both of these cards. Great layouts and layering. Awesome stamping and coloring. I have got some pinning to do.
Very creative making your own background. Love the mix of media. Wonderful card. Oh, btw, I can tell you do the inside of your cards as well. This does not get by me. Every time I give a card, the recipient opens it to see what is inside. Kind of an odd feeling for me (the cardmaker) when there isn't anything.
Such interesting cards. You really made good use of the entire card and did a great job of fussy cutting the image.
Very eye catching! Lots going on there. Good job!
Oooooo....ahhhhh....what pretty cards!! I LOVE that snow on the pinecones!!! And your cardinal card is fantastic!
done in Kraft...BEAUTIFUL. i always struggle with using Kraft so i appreciate seeing it.
Beautiful cards! Especially like the first with the red and the cardinal.
Very, very nice! Love all the little extra details.
I love the texture and layers on the cards. Fantastic.
Your cards are fantastic. I love the rustic feel of them. The browns really give it a homey feel. TFS
These are really quite beautiful - I LOVE how the bright red cardinal POPS in front of that kraft background, I have to use kraft cardstock more... thanks for the inspiration!
Your cards are just beautiful! I am a re-starter to making cards & it's such fun to see what you have done with these sets. Your talent is amazing!
Beautiful cards! Love the cardinal with the red checked background, amazing! The pine cone cards is such a beautiful image and gives the real feeling of December, love the "snow" effect!
Beautiful cards Karen. I love the country feel of them.
