SU Alpine Adventure

September 17, 2018

Here is a nostalgic Christmas card using the Alpine Adventure Bundle.
I love the sled and snowshoes as the main focal points!

I used the traditional colored and patterned Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper.


Mossy Meadow and Cherry Cobbler work well with Very Vanilla as a neutral. But, wait, Mossy Meadow is now in the Neutral Family, huh?
I organize my inks and cardstock by families, and I am still getting used to that when I search for my Mossy Meadow and Night of Navy as well!

 

I love this bundle… there are the dies that cut the stamped images as well as little extras like the bow and holly leaves!

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…

P.S. We have had a death in the immediate family as well as a marriage
(both requiring travel and planning)
so I haven’t got to do any videos these last few Mondays…they will be back!
Thanks for your patience and continued viewing:)

SU Spirited Snowmen

September 14, 2018

I have been trying to ink up my Buffalo Plaid Background Stamp and my Spirited Snowmen for over a month…
and finally did! Yea for me!

I love to make some of my Christmas Cards with untraditional colors.
I stamped the Buffalo Check with Highland Heather purple and used Stampin’ Blends to color the image- Light Highland Heather and Light Pool Party.

I made my snowflakes from the Beautiful Blizzard Thinlits die.
It is a large 4″ x 5″ die that can make a negative die cut panel

or many snowflakes at one time!

I did use Coastal Cabana Snowflakes though as I had some from a leftover project.

They matched well:)

SU Merry Christmas to All

September 10, 2018

I used the Merry Christmas to All Bundle on this card in a different way than the last post.
I used the stamp set and one of the sentiment die cuts- gotta love those two sentiment die cuts!

I jazzed it up with some gold embossing on the swish under the Christmas sentiment and on the Cherry Cobbler TO YOU.
After I stamped everything on the Very Vanilla panel, I ran it through the Big Shot using the Subtle Embossing Folder.

The little sprig of holly was made with a die found in the Detailed Poinsettia Thinlits.

Isn’t the Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper just wonderful!
I used one of the plaids but it has so many beautiful patterns in it:)

SU Merry Christmas to All with Foliage Frame Framelits

September 8, 2018

Happy Saturday to you all! Hope you have great plans for the day!
I sure do…after three days of classes, I get to spend one more full day stamping! WooHoo!
A Product Class using the Merry Christmas to All and the Dashing Deer Bundles this morning,
and an afternoon with my Downline group using new products from the Holiday Catalog-
how blessed am I? Wish all you you be with us!!!
Here is a one of the cards we are making…

Super clean and simple with the WOW of copper foil, vellum, and copper embossing.
I have been using the Foliage Frame Framelits like crazy on my cards- the leaves are so pretty!
The Joyous Noel Specialty DSP is just so over the top with its copper accents throughout!
I love the new Merry Merlot cardstock- it is really interesting how different each new color is
and how each one speaks for itself. I say to myself-
“Self, you have a similar color,” but then I get that new color and think,
“how did I live without this?”
LOL- did you get a chuckle out of that?
