Welcome December!

It's December and I'm excited...for oh so many reasons!  It's the holiday season, the birth month of Christ, presents, family...and so much more.  Although 2020 has caused us to have to rethink/reimagine how we've done things, our creativity and our ingenuity continue to thrive.

So the 1st Sunday of every month, the Fabulous Fun Friday Stampers (FFF Stampers) meet virtually (we used to meet in person, pre-COVID) for Shoebox parties.  The premise of Shoebox parties is that each participant designs a card and when we met in person, they'd prepare 1 card kit for each stamper then we'd get together on the appropriate date and get to creating.  In this age of COVID, each participant still designs a card, but we post it to our Pinterest board and then each participant searches their stash and creates the card with items they have.  Sometimes, we all have the same stamp/paper/stencil/die, etc. and sometimes we don't and thus use the card as inspiration.  This month, the theme was birthday, we were a little burnt out on making Christmas cards.  Here are the cards I made based on the stampers' upload:

Hello Fall Y'all! - Pretty Pumpkins

  Welcome and Happy Fall Y'all! Thanks for stopping by Sweets' Stampin' Creations, where I share card  projects created using Stampin' Up! products.  It's time for another Stamping With Friends blog hop!  I'm hopping with some awesome paper crafters and stampers from the Stamping With Friends Facebook Group.  For this post, it's all about Fall. I love this time of year...although I live in Texas and don't get to experience the changing of the seasons as dramatically as my college years when I lived in Worcester, MA...I still remember the colors of the season and the changing of temperatures from hot to cool (not cold).    Fall, the time of the year between Summer and Winter (usually between September and December) heralds in pumpkin season (pumpkin spice, pumpkin pie...you get the drift), soup season, leaves changing colors, cooler weather, apple picking (I've never done that), etc. T here are so many ways to celebrate this season of the year.  ...
