Hello and Happy First Day of December!
My semester is winding down, and I've been working on a bunch of cards using the new Fancy Pants Timbergrove product line. I've decided to challenge myself and see how many cards I can make using these products as I'm tired of watching so many supplies gather dust! I'm calling it the Use It Up! December Card Challenge. I've already written most of the posts, so I'm good to go!!!
Sooooo... there will be a card or tag here every day. (I've already written most of the posts, so I'm good to go!!!)
It is with a heavy heart that I start my project, though, as today's post is my last one as a member of The Craft's Meow design team. Sadly, owner Lisa Hjulberg has career commitments that require her to close its doors on December 31, 2013. We're all sad to see TCM leave as the stamps have always been high in quality and have featured great images.
There is a silver lining for TCM fans, though; Lisa wants to liquidate the stock so she doesn't have to deal with 2014 tax concerns - and this means super bargains for all of you!
All stamp sets have been marked down by as much as 75%! Stock is limited... once it's gone, it's gone for good, so please shop early for the best selection. All orders of $25 or more will receive a free gift with purchase. Flat rate shipping is $3.00 for all US orders and $12 for all International orders.
You should have arrived here from Jinny Newlin's blog.
(If you'd like to start from the beginning, just go to The Craft's Meow Blog for a list with all the links.)
We were supposed to use our favorite TCM stamp set, and mine has always been Stitched Flowers - which works just fine for a seasonal card, I think!

Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day!

Beautiful card! I am so sad TCM is closing, but happy that Lisa is on a new venture. I love my TCM stamps!

Deborah, I love your card! Simple, yet so striking. The colors are wonderful!
It's been a great ride! Thank you so much for all your help as Design Team Coordinator. I really appreciate all you did to help me, for always having a listening ear, and for your support and encouragement. You're a good friend. :)
I wish you all the best in your teaching and with your creative pursuits. Hopefully, once the dust settles, I'll be able to create again and do some blog surfing. I'll be sure to stop by and see what you're up to. In the meantime, we always have FB!
God's blessings,
Lisa
