Say Freeze, second installment

 I've not made even a dent in it, but here are some more 5" x 7" cards using this year's version of Michael's "Say Freeze".

This one uses the cute slipper dies from Spellbinders, called "Cozy Toes Slippers". So cute!

More using the "Cozy Toes Slippers" from Spellbinders.  The sentiment is from My Favorite Things.  All the cards are decorated inside and have an inside sentiment.

The inside sentiment for this one was printed from my computer, in deep red.  Since I live in Florida it seems appropriate to wish for snow somewhere else.

Say Freeze, 2024 version

 Each year I end up buying more of the big paper pads from Michael's, and using one or 2 sheets out of it and then putting it aside.

This year, I have to decided to use the paper pad I bought this year, while it's fresh on everyone's mind. So here it is, this year's version of "Say Freeze", the annual snowman themed paper from Michael's Recollections.  The paper pad has 58 sheets in it, so my goal is to (eventually) make at least 30 cards with it. 

So, here are the first 11.  These are all A7, 5 x 7 inches. They are, for the most part, quickly made using the cut-aparts.  I am looking forward to the A7 rectangle dies that are coming next week, so the next installments will have better proportions.

Deer for the season.

 This is a generic deer die that's been in my stash for over 5 years.  I love those curly antlers. The other elements of this card were in my "Christmas extras" box. The background paper is from Honeybee Stamps.

Nordic moose!

 

I love this Nordic Moose from Poppy Stamps but doing it in white silhouette made it hard for me to photograph the details. Do you think he needs a bow on his antlers?

The red and green plaid paper is from Honey Bee Stamps, and the sentiment is from Spellbinders'.

He's propped up on Fiestaware plates.

Dancin' moose!

 

This is the "Dancin' Moose Klondike" from Spellbinders.  He's just so stinkin' cute!  The white panel is embossed with the 2D embossing folder of the month from July, "Hexi Snowflake", and the striped paper and gems are from a Michael's paper kit from last year.  The sentiment is a free printable from Sassy's LLC, a channel on YouTube.

He's so tall that it needed to be a 5 x 7" card!

Yes, he's propped up on a Fiesta plate.

Michael's paper pads

 

Every so often I get the urge to try to use up some of my 12 x 12 paper pads that I HAD to get from Michael's.  I swear those paper pads have pheromones that call to us.

Anyway, I created a few A7 sized Thanksgiving cards, and one A2 housewarming card.

On this card, I used owl stickers that I got from the Dollar Tree 3 years ago, and an oak tree branch die from Honey Bee stamps.  That die isn't features on many cards online so, here's some love for it.

The sentiments for the housewarming card are from a free printable from Sassy's LLC.

First Christmas cards--Hark the Newborn King

 

I brought out a kit I got last year from Simon Says Stamp, Hark, The Newborn King.  I had already sort of started some of these so I finished them up.  The patterned paper did most of the work. I stamped and embossed the sentiments right on the image, then added other embellishments like die cuts, spattering, foiled washi tape, and some star shaped confetti.
