November 1, 2012 Holiday Cactus


Doodle Pantry Holiday Cactus which includes DP used, Pop dots, Diamond Dots

Today is "new release" day over at Doodle Pantry  this set is FREE if you enter the Doodle Pantry Challenge 29, what a fun set to add to your collection for the holiday cards especially if you have friends living in the warmer southwestern states.  This card is a motion card - which can be mailed flat and then set up as an easel card once opened.  I used the design paper that comes with the set and I used the colored image so it makes matching a no brainer.  The next card also uses this set:


Doodle Pantry Holiday Cactus, DP and CS from TAC, pearls from my stash, cloud dies AMuse

I wanted to show a non holiday card using this set - again using the colored image , paired with some DP and CS from TAC which I still had on hand, I thought the paper had a desert feel and worked very well with this image.  Needed something else so added a couple of die cut clouds and bit of "bling" and this card is ready to go to someone who "needs a lift!!"

Adorable designs and color coordination. Isn't it amazing how you can take one stamp and do such different things with it? Makes you want to go buy it right away.

Hey Kiddo! Sorry it has taken me so long to get back around! First and foremost, thank you so much for your kindness with your comments and cards. That was so very nice of you and meant so much to me. I love these cactus cards! Especially the sentiment on the second one. . .made me laugh. Hope you are well! Hugs, Curt
