Christmas Snowman

Hi everyone!

I hope you are doing well :) 

I have one last holiday card to share with you today that I created using one of my favorite stamps from Gerda Steiner Designs.

I adore this Happy Snowman stamp set. I've used it a few different times but it is one of my go to snowman stamps, it always makes me smile!

I started by covering an A2 cardbase with some falling snow patterned paper. I cut my scallop rectangle from some white cardstock and then cut a window from the middle using another die. I stamped my Happy Snowman image with some Black Memento ink and colored it with my Copic markers. I did a little paper piecing for his hat band and scarf before fussy cutting him out. I stamped my sentiment and then glued my image to the backside of the window opening. I added some crochet thread and popped up my image panel with foam adhesive onto the front of the card. I completed my card with a small bit of glitter, snowflake sequins and some white Nuvo drops. 

I think this turned out so cute!

Waffle Flower December Release!

Hi everyone!
I hope you are all having a fabulous day!

It's time for the Waffle Flower December Release and I'm so excited to be a guest designer!

This release is jam packed with so many wonderful products and I am over the moon that I got to work with some of them.

Let's take a look at the projects that I made using some of the new, along with some older Waffle Flower products.

My first card features the new Flower Gift Box Die. I love sending cards just because so I decided to make a card to send someone a paper hug and let them know they are being thought about. I started by creating an A2 cardbase from some white cardstock and adhering a strip of pink patterned paper from the Half-Half Dots Christmas Paper down the middle. I created my little box of flowers and added it to a piece of white cardstock that I lightly inked. I added my sentiment from the Postage Collage underneath and added a few sequins to complete my card. 

So many possibilities with this die! 

By simply changing the sentiment, it could be used for so many different occasions...Valentine's, Thinking of You & Congrats just to name a few. Flowers are so versatile!

 I used the new Gradient Heart Panel Die for my second card. 

I created a white A2 top folding card and rounded the two opposite corners. I used the Gradient Heart Panel Die and cut it out twice using two different papers from the Half-Half Lines Caprice Paper Pad.  The biggest heart was adhered flat onto the card front & the second biggest was added with foam tape. I stamped my greeting using a stamp from the Frontline Heroes 2 stamp set onto the center heart and  adhered it using two layers of foam tape so that there was a slight progression of depth. I used the Flower Gift Box Die for the smaller hearts and finished my card with some sequins and a crochet thread bow. 

I adore how this die does all the work for you!

Quick and easy but makes a big impact!

I used the Rose Background Stencil Duo for my third card.

I inked up some yellow roses (my favorite 💛) onto a piece of smooth white cardstock. 

I trimmed it down by cutting about an inch off of one side and adhered a thin strip of gold glitter cardstock. I popped it up onto a white A2 cardbase using foam tape. I used the Elegant Love Stamp Set and stamped the sentiments with some black ink. 

I love that the sentiments are all on ONE stamp!!

Next, I lined up the Elegant Love Matching Die, ran it through my die cutting machine and voila!, I had 9 sentiments ready to go! They are all fabulous but I picked the Sending Love, popped it up with some foam tape and added a few gold sequins to complete my card. 

I love having a collection of sentiments ready to go!

Winter Holidays

Here is a look at the project that I created:

I thought this little caroling duo was so cute, I just had to color it up and create a card with it.

I printed out the Joy To The World* image from Di's Digi Stamps onto a piece of white Hammermill cardstock and colored it with my Copic markers. Once I had it colored the way I liked, I used a tag die to cut it out. I popped it up onto my card front and added some pink crochet thread. I thought it would be fun to create some little loops in the thread so I added drops of glue here and there and positioned my thread along the edges of the tag. I die cut the "falalalala" from some pink patterned paper using a Lawn Fawn die and added that below my image. I completed my card with s few snowflake sequins and some white Nuvo drops. So super sweet!

Holiday Spirit

Hi everyone!

Can you believe it is already December? 

I have a holiday card to share with you today that I created using a fun little stamp from 

Gerda Steiner Designs.

How cute is this little kitty?

I stamped the kitty from the Furry & Bright stamp set using some Black Memento ink twice, once onto a piece of white Hammermill cardstock and again onto a piece of plaid patterned paper. I colored the image that was stamped onto the white cardstock using my Copic markers and then fussy cut the plaid box out and glued it on top of my colored image. I added my sentiment & used a stitched die to cut out my image. I wrapped some red crochet thread around the top & tied a little bow with some small bells in the center before adhering my piece onto some gold glitter cardstock. I covered the front of my white A2 cardbase with some more of the plaid patterned paper, added my image panel and my card was done! Simple card but I really wanted the focus to stay on that fun little kitty! There have been moments so far this holiday season where I can relate to this little cat haha! How about you??
