(I tape The Young and the Restless and As the World Turns). This brings me to what inspires me to stamp, it can be a color combo, a layout or maybe an image that I really like. I recently bought some flannel jammies and that is what inspired me for my Christmas cards this year. Here are my jammies and here is the card I came up with. I have had this Penny Black stamp of the two deer for a few years now and I was thrilled to use it for some of my cards. The base card is brown shimmer cardstock and then I layered pink Bazzill bling and light pint Bazzill cardstock that I embossed with my 
Cuttlebug and Snowflake embossing folder. This card is 5" x 7" so I had to cuttlebug half and then move the folder over and do the other half, and it worked just fine. I stamped the deer with Brown Versacolor ink. I notched the corners of the image and layers with my 1/2" round punch. I just put the tip of the panel in the punch and snipped it off. It's like having two punches in one! I just love that! I wanted the brads to be glittery so I wrapped each one with a Mini Glue Dot (love these) and dipped them in crystal glitter. It is hard to tell, but I added a little twinkle to the eyes of the deer with Diamond Stickles.What I love #3
Penny Black stamps! I can't begin to tell you how many I have. My favorites are the Brushstroke images and the words/phrases. I own several of the cuter images also. I buy them here. Here are two cards made with a couple of my favorite images. 
I would love to hear about your favorite things too!
