Happiest Christmas Wishes

Happy Wednesday Peeps!!!

Today I am sharing a card I made a couple of weeks ago.

I was inspired to make his one after seeing a decorative storage box in town. 

You never know where you might find inspiration!

Here is a pic I snapped of the box:

I used the Snow Front stamp set along with the Dashing Deer stamp set that is a carry over set

from last years Occasions catalog.

I built my scene on a piece of Pool Party card stock.

I stamped the background trees from the Snow Scene set using Pool Party ink.

The front trees are from the same set, stamped with Versamark ink and embossed with White

Embossing Powder.

 

The deer is stamped with Gray Granite ink and then I added in some shadows using my Gray Blend.

I also added a few highlights with the my White Gel pen.

I used the white gel pen to dot the card for a snow fall effect.

The cardinals are stamped with Real Red ink and I added the black detail with my

Journaling pen.

The base of the card is Thick Whisper White and then a layer of of Pool Party and then another 

layer of Whisper White.

The sentiment is from the Dashing Deer Set and stamped with Real Red ink.

 

I finished with a few sequins from the Basic Sequins pack.

The snow flake is from the To Every Season stamp set and matching Punch.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Tuesday Peeps!

I loved the sketch at  Fab Friday 

so much I decided to use it again on this Thanksgiving card.

I made this with some of the leaves I had left over from yesterday's card.

These leaves using the Gathered Leaves Dies are so pretty and really fun to make.

Push the die into your ink pad before die cutting and you get a nice contrast on the leaves.

 

I stamped my Pumpkins with Black Stazon ink on thick whisper white card stock and  colored with

my Aqua Painter and ink pads. I used Cajun Craze and Crumb Cake ink pads.

I die cut a circle using the Stitched Shapes Dies and Thick Whisper White card stock.

I added the leaves and pumpkins to the circle with dimensionals.

The base of the card is Crumb Cake card stock.

I then used another layer of Crumb Cake that I embossed with

the Tin Tile EF.

 

The DSP is from the Come To Gather paper pack.

I matted it with some Cajun Craze card stock and I used an embossing die on one edge that is from the Stitched  Labels Dies.

The sentiment is from a Paper Pumpkin kit.

I finished up with a simple twine bow on one of the pumpkins!

Seaside Season's Greetings

Happy Wednesday Peeps!!

Today's card share is made using the Still Scene stamp set along with

the Frosted Frames Dies.

I got the Frosted Frames Bundle ages ago and had not used them until now.

They are so pretty!!

I stamped the little house scene using Black Stazon onto some thick Whisper White

cardstock. I colored using my Aqua Painter and ink pads.

The scene is tiny and a bit of a challenge to water color but  it is so cute I had to give it a go.

 

I die cut the scene using one of the dies and then die cut the 

outside piece with the snowflakes and foliage with more Whisper White.

I used some Seaside Spray to add a layer between the scene and the 

foliage snowflake die cut piece.

I used Seaside Spray for my base and then I used another piece of Seaside Spray

that I embossed with the Subtle EF.

I added it to the base with glue.

The sentiment is from the Still Scene set and is stamped with

Versamark ink and then embossed with white Embossing Powder.

I then added the Framed Scene piece to the card base with dimensionals.

 

I finished it up with a few little rhinestones on the snowflakes.

Happy Tuesday Peeps!!!

Toady I have a few more red truck cards to share!

I told you yesterday how I am obsessed with all things red truck related and that I had

stamped a few to practice coloring.

These cards are the outcome of my marathon coloring session.

I had fun coloring these and I think this may be my Christmas card this year, maybe?

I stamped with Black Memento ink onto some thick Whisper White and colored with my blends.

I used Real Red and Cherry Cobbler for the truck and Old Olive for the tree and Gray Granite for the tires and trim.

 

This truck I made part of it green, to make it more Christmas-e!!!

I think it is cute like this. 

I imagine it is my Christmas Tree Farm truck....lol!!

I fussy cut out the trees and the trucks.

I cut a piece of Whisper White and embossed it with the Subtle EF.

I then matted the white embossed piece with Cherry Cobbler card stock.

I added the truck and tree to this piece with dimensionals.

 

My sentiment comes from the Snowman Season samp set and 

is stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink before embossing.

I stamped the Buffalo Check Background pieces using the Buffalo Check stamp and Black

Memento ink with my Stamparatus. 

Two of my cards are on a Thick Whisper White base 

and one is on a Basic Black card base.

This Day is Yours

 

Happy Saturday Peeps!!

Today I am sharing a card a made a few weeks back.

You all know I love the Beautiful Friendship set and Seaside Spray is my favorite color

of the new In Colors.

I had just got this beautiful Seaside Spray Metallic ribbon and I needed to use it right away.

This is the card I came up with.

I stamped the flowers using Seaside Spray,

 Night of Navy and Pear Pizzazz for the leaves 

onto thick Whisper White card stock.

I die cut it using one of the Stitched Nested Label Dies 

and also a die cut using the Night of Navy card stock.

I layered it up and cut off the top point, just for something different.

 

 This card is loaded with layers, I like it that way...lol!!

I started with a base of Seaside Spray, then a layer of Whisper White and

followed that with a piece of gingham DSP from the In Color 6 x 6 pack.

Then I embossed a piece of Whisper White using the Brick &Mortar EF.

I matted that with a piece of Night of Navy card stock.

 

I tied the pretty Seaside Spray Metallic Ribbon around the middle layers before

 adding it to the base card with dimensional. 

The sentiment here comes from the Rare Blessings stamp set.

I stamped it using Night of Navy ink before adding it to the card with more dimensionals.

 

I finished with a few rhinestones from the Holiday Rhinestone pack.

Listed below are all the "ingredients" used to make this card.
