Here is another suggestion on cards that can be send overseas.

You don't have a cutting/embossing machine, or this particular embossing folder? No problem,  you can order the blue paper already embossed from this Etsy store . It can't get easier than that!

A Merry 'Little' CHRISTmas card

One of my favorite Christmas movies is The Christmas Card. I think it is an excellent idea to send cards to the our troops overseas. So, even if you don't have family and/or friends living abroad, how about making a card to send to a soldier? As I promised on my last post, here is another idea to send overseas.

Supplies used
Paper: Red and white cardstock
Tools: Cutting/embossing machine (Sizzix Big Kick), Tree and Pine Cones embossing folder (Darice Essentials)
Embellishments: Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas sticker

How about making this card to send to our deployed troops? It's not difficult to make, it doesn't take much time, it is beautiful, but, most importantly, it will show appreciation for what they are doing out there for us. You can attach the card to a care package. Here is a website with information on how to send items to soldiers abroad. Any Soldier

Thank you so much for visiting my blog.

God bless you,

Poinsettias CHRISTmas Card

If you are like me and have extended family and/or friends abroad, you probably can't send a card that has 3D embellishments or ribbons and bows. So, while I was making the cards I'm going to send over seas, I thought it would be nice to post some of them here to help you. Here is the first one.

Supplies used for this card
Paper: White card, red and white cardstock
Tools: Cutting/embossing machine, poinsettias embossing folder (sizzix), red sharpie, red glitter gel pen
Stamp: "May the glory..." (Stampabilities)

There you have it. No 3D embellishments or ribbons and bows, and still a beautiful card to send to someone special.

Thank you for stopping by. God bless you.
