Passing the Torch!

Oh, my month carrying the Team Orange Torch for the AmberInk Torchbearers has been a blast! I was honored to accept the torch from the super-talented Emily, and I hope I did her proud :)

All the ladies made some really great projects -- and you can see a recap of them here. I had so much fun checking out everyone's creations and reading Amber and Pam's fun and funny comments all month long -- thanks for your generosity!

But it's time to throw this torch to a talented stamper and new friend: Welcome Lindsey! She's a long-time crafter and new blogger, so be sure to stop by and give her some love! I can't wait to see what she comes up with -- I know it's gonna be awesome! Thanks, Linds, for running with the torch for Team Orange.  You can meet her and all the other new babes right here.

Before I go, I have one more Amber-ready project for you (surprise!)

I made a quick set of 4 Christmas cards using the super-fun Black Tie Spin Pin iPaper printed on kraft:


I punched a few holes in each panel, then added them to red card bases with some red stitching. The sentiment is a stamp I've had forever...


A quick circle punch, and another set of cards is ready to send!

Anyway, big thank yous all around to all the AmberInk peeps! It's been a blast! Now go check out Lindsey and all the new Torchbearers :)

Very cool cards! Love that they are non traditional Holiday cards. Probably won't get to see you before Christmas so I hope you have a great Holiday and a Happy New year!!

You sure did me proud, Ang!! These quick holiday cards are AMAAAZING! Wow, look at the perfect placement of the sentiment. The three punched holes and red stitching to highlight the red is genius! You rock, Ang!

Brilliant -- just like the AmberINK tagline says! Another iPaper I'll go get, thanks to you. :P Love these classy cards.

Wow, love these! How modern and fun, but still cozy with the kraft instead of white base. And I'm totally stealing your punched circle idea!
