Old Olive Plaid Card

What a fun party we had Sunday!  I was so pleased that my guests spaced themselves out in such a way that I got to spend time with each one!  We partied until a little past our time ... and it was so much fun!  
I had an early doctor's appointment yesterday and then I kind of took the day off and enjoyed reading a book by Clint Harp, their go-to carpenter from the Fixer Upper.  I loved his book and highly recommend it.  It's so inspirational to hear him share how he did so much to follow his dream. 
Now, on to today's card.  I love plaid and I love Old Olive, so when I can enjoy them together ... I'm a happy camper.
Spoiler Alert:
We're going to have Old Olive Linen Thread in our upcoming Occasions catalog!  Yay!

I spent some extra time being sure to center the plaid design before I cut it.  It gives it a much more elegant look.

I love the look of this card, but there's more you could do with it.  If you just changed out the sentiment, I think you could turn it into a great birthday card, especially for a guy.  It's always good to have more ideas for masculine cards and plaid always works.

Farmhouse Christmas Plaid

I've been changing up what I am making for our October 20 Saturday Stampers class.  There are just so many pretty stamps, punches, dies, papers and embellishments, it's a happy problem to try to narrow it down to your very favorites.  Today's card is one I really love.  You can't beat plaid for Christmas.  I've extended the deadline to pay to register for this class (to October 15) to be sure I have time to share it all with you, so you can choose which class you want to try next.  Here's my card.

This card is packed with fun products to use in creating it.  One of the nice things about taking a class is that you get the opportunity to try out our new products, so you'll know which ones you might like to order for yourself.  You can't beat hands on ... not to mention how much fun we all have while creating.
That's it for today.  I'll be working in my studio all the rest of today and several days coming.  I'm designing the cards and projects for all my next classes, as well as adding to my displays.  Fun!!!
