Cheerful Tags Window Card

Image
This is a fun card to make, it features the Cheerful Tags stamp set. I like the look of the window it would be pretty with some frost.  To make the window I first took a 4" x 5-1/4 piece of Whisper White card stock and added some All is Calm washi tape and a few stamped snowflakes. I die cut a starburst  into the center. I then layed this on my Soft Sky card base as a template and placed a circle die into the center of my starburst. I taped the circle down to the card base with a small piece of washi, so it would stay put, removed the white piece and then ran the card base through the Big Shot. I then added a white piece to the inside of my card and stamped the "holiday cheer" through the circle that way it was perfectly placed.  After that I attached a piece of window sheet to the back of my white piece and attached that to the front of my card.  I added the Frosted Sequins to give it some bling and the cute snowflake medallion.  Supplies : stamp

Cheerful Tags holiday card

Image
Here is one of my Holiday Cards for the 2014 Season. I love these colors so soft and serene and then a pop of red to remind you it's Christmas. Merry Merry I love this set Cheerful Tags , its small and simple. I layered some strips of All is Calm designer washi tape over my cascade of snowflakes. The snowflakes are stamped in smoky slate and soft sky classic ink. I added bling with the Frosted sequins and  basic   rhinestones that I colored with my Coastal Cabana blendabilities  markers. You could just as easily use a sharpie to color them, either way the effect is fun. I punched the tag with the new Note Tag punch , stapled a piece of real red 1/4" cotton ribbon  and then tied some cherry cobbler bakers twine around the red ribbon. I stamped the snowflake in soft sky ink on the soft sky card stock, gives a watermark effect. For the layout I used a smoky slate base layered a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of soft sky on top of it. The top layer is a 3-3/4" x 5

I LOVE the new Lucky Stars embossing folder (135817, $7.95) and the Confetti Stars punch (135861, $21.95) in the Holiday 2014 catalog. They aren't just for holiday cards, they work perfect for birthdays and congratulations cards, even baby cards. You know me, the more versatile the product the better.

Bloom for You stamp set

Image
This stamp is a single wood stamp with a matching punch, LOVE that! It is called Bloom for You and the punch is Fun Flower . To make this card I stamped the images onto the white card stock in Daffodil Delight and then in Calypso Coral. I actually then trimmed off the white about an inch and around the coral flower leaving the entire flower attached. I then stamped and punched a second coral flower and attached it with a dimensional. I added the Park Lane dsp print to a Daffodil Delight card base and popped up the white onto the base as well. On the top left I used Washi tape, kraft stickers and used the Little Pieces embosslit die for the rest. This card was so much fun to make. I will be featuring this card and 4 more at this month's stamp a stack. Be sure to sign up soon.
