Oh for fox sakes!

I'm back with another link up for the Winter/Holiday coffee lovers blog hop.

My family name is Fox, so this is especially cute and funny.  I made this specifically for my uncle and his family; however, since it was a pretty quick and easy card to make, I think I'll make up a few more for the Foxes in my life.  ;)

The Fox and "Oh for Fox Sakes" is a Unity Stamp Co. stamp.  The "not a creature...." and "Coffee..." stamp is from Stamplorations Big Grins Caffeinated Christmas stamp set.  The snowflake and "Wishing you a..." stamp is from The Stamps of Life (as well as the inks), and the cute little mug is Newtons Nook and Celebrate stamped on the mug is from A Journey with Melissa.

 
I have blog candy.  Comment HERE to win.  :)

For this card I used a Sizzix/Stephanie Barnard gift card flip it die set along with a The Stamps of Life Stocking dies.  The Patterned papers are also The Stamps of Life.  Stamp credits go to:  newton's nook, and caffeinated christmas.The little snowflake is TSOL.

the flip side holds the GC, which I haven't yet bought a Christmas one.  I put in this card to show...

Just a note.... thinking of you....

 Hey there!  Just wanted to let you know that there are new stamps over at The Stamps of Life with Stephanie Barnard.  :)

 Patterns4happymail to coordinate with the super cute happy mail club set that was released this month.  So fun!!  For this card, I embossed the side with the border dot embossing plate (it's a set with another pattern), and I added a little mailbox and saying inside...

A shaker card using the Lovely 3d drop in card set along with the happymail2stamp and patterns4happymail stamp sets.  Yay. I used my fuse tool.  ha!  Although, it doesn't shake very well...  hmmm. 

AND there's stamps that go with the recently released die sets titled bubbly.  They fit perfectly.  There's sayings and patterns.  Great addition if you hate these dies already...

or even if you don't!  Here's a card I stamped using that set. 

All stamps, dies, papers and inks are Sizzix/Stephanie Barnard and The Stamps of Life.  :)

You've got mail!

Happymail2stamp is the new stamp set for December at The Stamps of Life!  

I'm super excited about this set.  I had been thinking I wanted a happy mail stamp set, and was just about to order one from another stamp company when I received my DT package... and there it was!  A happy mail stamp set! I may or may not have danced a little happy dance...  ;) 

I have a few cards to share with you using the new set and dies (which are on their way if you're a die hard club member.  if you're not, the dies will be available on the 20th):

It's so nice to go out to the mailbox and see a card in it.  NOT a bill!  Right?  I created this card with the stamp/die set along with  Sizzix Basic step up card die, and the cute little smiling sun from the Sizzix Hello Sunshine triplit set. Papers from TSOL.

 and an envelope to mail it in....

 and another using the Sizzix 3d banner drop in set.  card front ^

and inside...
