Chalkboard technique card and Introducing Paper Pumpkin

Image
I love this old, but new again new technique. It is so much fun! I think it is the white embossing on the black that gives it so much pizzazz. We made this card at my last stamp club meeting. it features the chalkboard technique and new More Amore dsp. The scallops on the right are actually a doily heart (included in the designer series paper) turned on it's side. The More Amore paper is seasonally valentines but I really try and extend it's use to more than that. I think you can send this cute Hello card anytime. The red scalloped edge on the left is the new Real Red coredinations card stock, it is real red textured card stock with a pink core. So when we distressed the edge a bit you can see the pink inside. Cute! The technique is super easy, just emboss your images in white embossing powder and then daub some white ink around them. You can use white ink and clear embossing powder but the look is less dramatic. Supplies Stamp Set: Lacy and Lovely Ink: versamark (waterm

Twisted Holiday Card

Image
I am in love with this card! It is the twisted card featuring our Be of Good Cheer dsp. We did this last night at our Stamp Club meeting and it was a big hit and you would be surprised at how simple it is too. All it takes is a 4-1/4" x 11" piece of cardstock scored from the top right corner down to the bottom left corner long ways. Fold your piece along the score line and then fold it in half. Voila! A twisted card. You should have a pocket on the front as well as the inside. We used the inside one as a gift card holder. To add the designer paper accents I cut a rectangular green polka dot piece 2" x 5-3/4" and cut it diagonally from the top right to the bottom left along the taller side. For the snowflake part my piece of dsp was 4" x 4-12" again cut diagonally from the top right to bottom left along the taller side. Supplies: stamp set: Bold snowflake single stamp and Greetings of the Season ink: cherry cobbler paper: Be of Good Cheer dsp
