Let it Snow

Supplies:

Stamps: SU One of the Kind, Falling Snow, Sophisticated Sled

Paper: Gina K White and Simon Says Stamp Matte Silver Cardstock

Ink: VersaMark

Hello Stampers!  I made this card using the Freshly Made Sketches, sketch of the week!

I started by embossing the background stamp Falling Snow with silver embossing powder.  Then I die cut it with the A2 layering dies.  From here I worked on the snowflake.  I stamped, embossed, and die cut the large snowflake, and then I adhered a white snowflake that I die cut in the middle of the silver snowflake.  I added some bling to make it shine! :). Then I worked on the horizontal strip.  I used the deckled rectangle dies to create a deckle edge on the strip.  Then I added the white sheer ribbon with a silver edge.  I felt like something was missing.  I wanted to add a sentiment but I had never heat embossed on silver matte cardstock.   So I found a scrap and tried it out.  It worked!  I thought the silver cardstock might bubble up or something, but it didn't!  Yay!  So I stamped and embossed the Let it Snow sentiment.  To finish the card I adhered the layers together and popped up the snowflake with dimensionals.  For the inside I stamped, heat embossed, and die cut the sentiment.  I heat embossed some snowflakes to add some detail to the inside.  I wish the picture of this card showed it's subtle shine, but it was really hard to take a picture without having any glare.  I ended up putting it on the floor and holding an Ott Light above it as I took the picture!  LOL!  That's all for now!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share a card that I made for the Clean and Simple Challenge: Turtles over at Splitcoaststampers!  I had to participate, I love turtles!  For my card I started by designing the tag.  I stamped, die cut, and colored the turtle and friends.  Then I stamped and die cut the sentiment, and adhered it to the bottom of my tag.  To finish the tag I added some lemon lime twist ribbon.  To finish the card I die cut the quilted backdrop and then die cut it with an A2 layer die to give a white border to the front of the card.   For the inside I added a layer of lemon lime twist and stamped and die cut the sentiment.  And that completes this card! :)

Stamps: SU Zinnia and Everyday Greetings

Paper: White and Basic Black

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black

Accessories: SU Zinnia dies, SU Frosted Flurry Dies, SU Zinnia embossing folder, SU Gingham ribbon, Copic markers

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share a card I made for the Featured Stamper Challenge over at Splitcoaststampers.  Here is the card that I CASED:

For my card I also started with a white card base.  Then I stamped, die cut, and colored in my zinnias.  To finish the zinnias I added a gingham bow.  Where she had two strips of patterned paper, I embossed a strip of white cardstock and matted it in black.  Instead of using a die cut sentiment, I stamped and die cut the Thinking of You sentiment.  For the inside I adhered an embossed panel to the top and left the rest blank to write a message.

That's all for now!  Thanks so much for stopping by! :)

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share a card I made for the Freshly Made Sketches, sketch of the week.

For my card I started by cutting my card base.  Then I die cut the letters J and Y, and the poinsettia.  I lined them up and cut the white panel to go behind the word joy.  Before I added the word joy to the white panel I ran it through the die cut machine with the quilted card front die.  Next I cut a strip of the patterned paper to go behind the white panel.  To finish I adhered everything together.  For the inside I die cut he word joy, and then stamped the words to complete the sentiment.  I cut a piece of patterend paper to go behind the white panel like I did for the front.

That completes the card!  Thanks so much for stopping by!!

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share a card I made for the Clean and Simple challenge over at Splitcoaststampers: Show Us Your Hats!  I decided to use a snowman image with a top hat.  I started by assembling the snowman.  Then I die cut the stitched rectangle for the focal panel.  For the snowy hill I die cut the same stitched rectangle and then die cut the stitched border as a base for the snowman.  I decided that the background needed something.  I decided to use a snowy embossing folder for the background.  I was arranging the pieces before adhering everything together, and I decided to add a sentiment to the front of the card.  I got out my Misti and stamped the sentiment in black.  To finish the front I adhered everything together.  For the inside I stamped and die cut the sentiment, and before adhering it to the inside I die cut and adhered some accent snowflakes.  And that completes the card.

Spooky Wishes

Supplies:

Stamps: SU Playful Ghosts, Pretty Pink Posh: Ghost Friends

Paper: GKD White, American Crafts, SU Beautifully Penned DSP

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black

Accessories: SU Spotlight on Nature Dies, Memory Box Ghastly Ghosts, Copic Markers

Hello Stampers!  I'm here to share a card I made for the sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches.

 

For my card I started by selecting the patterned papers.  The stripe and polka dots are from the Beautifully Penned DSP and the stars patterned paper I believe is from JoAnn.  I cut the pieces to create a background.  Then I stamped, die cut, and colored in my ghost.  I wanted to add more to the card, but I couldn't think of anything to add! So this is very clean and simple!!  For the inside I simply cut a piece of the star patterned paper, added a sentiment, and adhered some tiny ghosts to finish it off.

Thanks so much for stopping by!!
