Snowfllake

Hi everyone,

Today's card is one that I created using a large snowflake die from Impression Obsession.



I started by blending the background using 3 different Distress inks.  From the bottom, Chipped Sapphire, Peacock Feathers and then Cracked Pistachio. I then die cut the whole panel with a stitched rectangle die aand dded some splatters of white paint and set aside to dry.

I stamped the sentiment on black cardstock and white heat embossed. As the snowflake die actually comes apart in 4 pieces I used the largest die cut piece to use as the focal point. Adhered that with some tape and that's it for my card.

Thanks for stopping by.

Supplies:
Impression Obsession
SSS Stitched Rectangle die
Distress inks -
SSS sentiment
SSS White embossing powder

Fun with Sunny Studio stamps and dies

Hi everyone,

I had so much fun creating these Christmas cards using Sunny Studios stamps and dies that I just had to share them all here.

Unfortunately the glitter doesn't show through as nicely as it does in real life on cards 1, 5 & 6. The first card has gold, the fifth card is red and the sixth card is green. They are actually oh so sparkly!

The one thing that I didn't do when I created some of the cards below is write down the colour combinations that I used on those specific cards. Lesson learned for next time :)

Here goes:

Lawn Fawn Christmas

Hi everyone,

I have a fun card to share that I created using a SSS stencil and some embossing paste and Lawn Fawn stamps and sentiment.



I started by using a large stitched rectangle die to cut the base layer and applied a stencil and some snow embossing paste to add the snow to the background. I die cut 2 snow hills using some stitched hillside borders.

Stamped all the elements to my card and coloured them with Copics.

I masked off where the 2 hills would be placed and then applied some Broken China Distress oxide ink to the top of both of the hills.

Layered the hills with foam tape and then started to create my scene.

Added some Glossy Accents, Wink of Stella and some Liquid Applique to the Santa hats.


Well that's it for this card and thanks for stopping by.

sending Christmas Joy

Hi everyone.

Today I have a card to share that I created using a fun Mama Elephant stamp set that I won from them called Whimsical Winter. It's adorable!


I didn't have the matching die set so I decided to make this a one layer card by doing a little masking.

I started by stamping the deer and rabbit and then colouring them in with Copics. I stamped each image again onto some masking paper and then covered over my images. I then blended some distress ink over two thirds of the panel. I then took my Misti and with the masks in place stamped the tree over top,

Added the sentiment at the top, a few sequins and a red pompon for the deer's nose and that's it for this very easy card.

Thanks for stopping by,
