Santa & Reindeer Card - Inspiration

Happy Saturday everyone! Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend so far! Today I'd like to share with you a card made by Nadja Robbins of Scrap Dragon. She used a digi stamp by Rosanna Zuppardo called Santa & Reindeer stamp to create her card. You can find this stamp on our website here. It turned out so cute! Love the colors and all the shading. You can visit Nadja's blog to see how she made her card here.

Thank you for sharing Nadja! It's beautiful! 

I'm finally feeling better after being sick for 3 weeks. So today I spent the day decorating my home for Christmas. I will post some photos tomorrow of my home, as this is the first Christmas in our new home.

Sweet Christmas Inspiration

Hello everyone! Time sure does fly by doesn't it. Christmas will be here before we all know it! Are you all still making Christmas & Winter cards? In some of the FB groups I belong to, that there are tons of people still making them. So today I thought I'd share with you a card that one of design team members made using one of our stamps called "Sweet Christmas". The stamp was designed by Erica Nicomedi from Italy. Shawn first cut the card into a house shape. She used Stickles on the die cuts. She added a cute reindeer and trees to the front. This turned out so cute Shawn! Thank you for making this for us! We hope you enjoyed using our "Sweet Christmas" stamp! You can find this stamp and more of Erica's other stamps on our website Treasured Times Rubber Stamps & Scrapbooking.

Thanks for stopping by today! We hope you enjoyed your visit with us today!

New Halloween Stamps Released! & A Sale!!!

Hello everyone! First, just a friendly reminder that our second challenge will come to an end tomorrow! So if you plan on entering into the challenge don't forget to upload your creation to the Challenge Page by the deadline.

We decided to lower our prices of our stamps, and we're passing the savings on to you! Most stamps were reduced by $2.50 each. I also wanted to let you all know that most of our stamps are available as digis as well. Our digis are 600 dpi and come in Jpg or Png format. Their emailed to you same day you order.

Today I'd like to share with you some of the new Halloween stamps that we've just released. They are adorable and would make cute cards or scrapbook layouts! Just think......... Halloween is almost here. Wouldn't it be awesome to create a Halloween scrapbook layout and showcase your children or grand children in their Halloween costumes, along with some of these characters colored up and attached to your layout? I'm thinking of making one with my grand kids on it. Something special to look back on.
Anyway Christy Hartman created these cute Jump For Joy Halloween Characters. I've included the links to each one.

This one is called "Jump For Joy All Wrapped Up Mummy". Stamp #494-S.
