In last week’s Template Thursday with Tammy we learned how to make 2 cards using 1 simple layout. Each week I love by how just changing this one simple way of changing up the orientation can completely change the look. I’m featuring the gorgeous November Online Exclusive Brushed With Beauty Suite , but what makes this template truly shine is that it works with ANY Designer Series Paper. I even share with you at the bottom, that you can even use this beautiful DSP as a Christmas Card.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and today’s projects are extra special. I’ll be creating with the heartfelt Love & Courage Stamp Set from Stampin’ Up! — a meaningful part of their Make a Difference Campaign. With every Love & Courage stamp set sold, Stampin’ Up! donates $3 to support breast cancer awareness and research. Together, we can craft and make a difference.
I had so much fun creating with the Love & Courage Stamp Set, that I created 2 Alternate Samples from my original designs.

The templates I have chosen this week, are from my favorite, Mojo Monday. What I love about their templates, they show the dimensions. I did not go rogue this time and decided I loved the exact dimensions. I can’t wait to play with this for Christmas for sure. Feel Free to print out your templates or your own binder. I did share my binder with you at the end of the live, but I will be revising it to share with you next week.
