2026: Holiday Card with TapeRunner [Card #248-249]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I started working on my holiday cards the other day... well I made TWO holiday cards using this design because the background made a twofer [just reversed]๐Ÿ˜‚

I love using my TapeRunner adhesives on my cardbases (you might know that info based on all my posts when I talk about it... and from THIS post)! I usually add TR adhesive to the top, bottom, and both sides to adhere my cardstock/patterned papers/panels. However, for a diagonal background I add just a bit extra in the center and down the diagonal of each piece of paper!
TIP: For a diagonal background I add EXTRA adhesive down the diagonal on both pieces of paper/panels. This helps keep the bond strong to the cardbase. 
I love how this card turned out- it's modern and has fun colors! Let's see if I can make 100+ more holiday cards before November!!! I'll keep you posted๐Ÿ™ƒ **NOTE: I don't use the same card design twice unless it creates a twofer. So I have at least 100 MORE holiday card designs to make! YIKES! I better get started!! 


That's it for me today.

2025: Foiling Twofer Cards [card #282-283]

Hello again, sweet friends! 
I've said it before... but I'm going to say it again: 
  1. I looooooooooooooooooooooooove my Pink & Main Mini Minc machine- I love love love to foil different elements for my creations! 
  2. And I loooooooooooooooove a good #twofer design! And that's what you get when you foil- a positive and negative design!!! Two cards for the price of one:) 
I love this set of cards because of the NEW P&M Translucent Opal cheerfoil- it makes the background design (from the P&M Winter Poem foilables panels) look like iridescent snow!!! It's sooooooo pretty! ๐Ÿ‘€Be on the lookout on my IG stories- I'm going to try and share how this cheerfoil SHINES!!!! 
As for my colroing- I've colored 256 images so far in 2025! That's way more than last year! LOL I don't think I've improved my skills much... but I have learned that sometimes two colors is just fine๐Ÿ–️ I'm hoping to start a new tracker next year--- I already track coloring images and now I need to add foiling! 
That's it for me today.
