More of Stampin' Up!'s A Cute Christmas stamp set.......Holiday Cards!

 I haven't even begun to run out of ideas to do with my stamp set, A CUTE CHRISTMAS. This stamp set is endless!  No wonder because it has 'everything" ....stockings, mitts, trees, ornaments, etc.  STAMPIN' UP! has made it one of their two featured holiday themes. So there are lots of materials that are designed to work together.

                                                                   Happy Holidays

This card is featuring TREES and the fun you can have colouring it with your markers or chalks.  It's a simple way to co-ordinate a small piece of the lovely CANDY CANE designer papers with your cardstock and  stamped image.

I am still playing with buttons - see the little one in the upper corner?  Because its a small button - I decided it could have more presence with a backing of a small cardstock scalloped 'button'.

With lots going on with the trees, I made my HAPPY HOLIDAYS GREETING...go subtle with a monochromatic look - blue ink on blue paper.  I think it looks smart!

All mounted onto a backing of embossed Whisper White cardstock - using our Swiss dots texturizing folder, "Perfect Polka Dots" !  Then a card base of Real Red to really pop!

Try it yourself!
Ok, off to do more!

 One TIP: when purchasing your INK Pads from STAMPIN' UP! - do as I do, and purchase a co-ordinating MARKER - it really ties your project together!   Also buying my chalks was a brilliant start to my hobby - it also allows me great co-ordination for the papers, and ribbons, etc. that I purchase from SU!

Fun with Tags!

That is exactly what I had with this tag.....amongst all the oodles of cards I am making for a craft fair coming up, I am taking breaks by making projects that use all kinds of different elements.  Sort of like a cardstock 'stew', lol.                                                          Cute  Gift Tag or Notecard TAG BASE  1. First, I started with a small piece of cardstock of 3 x 6 inches, folded to create a square 3 x 3 inch tag. 2.  I layered a BAJA BREEZE cardstock square on top of the tag - I used my SCALLOP TRIM CORNER PUNCH to create the pretty corners! 3. To rev it up a bit, I glittered the bottom of the tag with some of Dazzling Diamonds. TAG DECORATION 4. I stamped  my lil' WALRUS  on a punched out '1-3/4 in.' Circle  of Whisper White cardstock  - then while I "maske...

Shabby Chic Cookie Cutter Card

Hey everyone!   Today I am blogging about the card I made in the middle of the night, lol.  It started with the idea that I wanted to use the bear from Stampin' Up!'s Cookie Cutter bundle set {stamp and punch}.  My intended recipient loves bears and I was dying to do a shabby chic style card, so voila!  Some details: I dyed a piece of white satin ribbon using ink. Ink refills {liquids} are so helpful to create co-ordinating materials for your projects. Soft sponging of paler colours help to frame your main more colourful image. Add more details by layering accents such as my poinsettias and label.   Here is one of the  embossing powders from the Stampendous Fran-tage line called ' Shabby White '. See how bubbly and glittery it is?   There it is - I love doing soft colours paired with white for pretty styled christmas cards!!!  Hope everyone is having a safe and enjoyable holiday season this year, cheers!

Beautiful Birthday Card from my Daughter

I was ' speechless ' on my birthday when my daughter presented me with her own hand-made card for me! Reason is that when we got up that morning we were in each other's company and yet somehow she managed to sneak off into my craft room and pull this together without me knowing it - - I was totally caught off guard, lol -- and loved it!!! She has always impressed me with her creativity because she doesn't do hand-craft items very often - she is more of an 'online creator' - I have her to thank for all my web banners and general blog technical help :) I was happy to see the cute butterfly resting on the branch, that is something I would not of thought of! Anyways, it was a lovely gesture and a thoughtful card. Beverly SUPPLIES LIST  Stampin' Up!   Eastern Bloom and Kindred Spirit stamp sets. Bella Rose  Designer Paper Pink Pirouette cardstock.
