Christmas Star

 

Christmas Star

This is one of the cards my Card Club By Mail ladies did last month. It is a simple card but very pretty!

If you live in Canada and you place a minimum $60.00 order with me you will receive a kit and PDF instructions for 4 cards!! I supply all the Card Stock, Ribbon, Embellishments and Designer Series Paper needed to complete the projects. You will need to stamp your own greetings. Every month is 4 different cards and or projects.

This card has lots of texture! I used 2 different Embossing Folders and the beautiful textured Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper. Check out that sparkly Glitter Star Ornament!! So pretty!!!!

Directions:

Cut Whisper White Card Stock base to 4 1/4” x 11” and score at 5 1/2”.

Cut a piece of Old Olive C/S to 4” x 5 1/4”. Emboss using the Scripty Embossing Folder. Attach to card base.

Cut a piece of Whisper White C/S and Plush Poinsettia DSP to 4 3/4” x 1 1/2”, attach the DSP to the WW piece. This makes the DSP “pop” more. Attach the Glitter Star Ornament behind this piece using a Glue Dot. 

Cut the Red Velvet Paper to 1” x 4 1/2” and emboss using the Absolutely Argyle Embossing Folder. Attach to card front, also attach the Plush Poinsettia DSP, it slightly overlaps the Red Velvet Paper. 

Stamp sentiment onto a piece of Crumb Cake C/S and using the Banners Pick A Punch flag cut one end. Attach to card front using Dimensionals. Glue dot the Star to the end of the tag.

Colour 3 Rhinestones with a Black Sharpie or Black Stampin’ Blends. Attach to card.

Freshly Made Sketch Challenge #417

It's time again for another challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches. I love doing these challenges, they inspire me!! Check out this weeks sketch here:

https://freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com

This is my interpretation of the sketch.

I used Blackberry Bliss card stock as my base, I added a layer of Basic Black c/s embossed with the Scripty 3D Embossing Folder. The Designer Series Paper is Lily Impressions (Free during Sale-a-bration with a $60.00 order!) layered onto a Whisper White panel. The sentiment is from Timeless Tulips. I added some pretty Silver Thread behind the sentiment and sprinkled on some Wink Of Stella for some glitz!! This card was quick to make, imagine the possibilities using  different Designer Series Paper.

Supplies Used:

Cardstock: Blackberry Bliss, Whisper White and Basic Black
Ink: Memento Black
Stamps: Timeless Tulips
Accessories: Scripty 3D Embossing Folder, Silver Thread, Lily Impressions DSP and Wink Of Stella.

Happy Stamping and Creating!!

Joyful Christmas

Another Challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches!

Check it out here:
https://freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com

I love how vibrant this card is!! The Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla, Gold and Basic Black are so stunning together!!!
This card came together quickly with the help of the FMS challenge!
I first embossed the lower part of the Cherry Cobbler panel with the Scripty 3D Embossing Folder, it adds just a hint of movement and interest. The floral panel is the Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper coloured with Cherry Cobbler and Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends. I die cut a few circles, off-set the Very Vanilla circle over the Basic Black circle, stamped my sentiment in Memento Black and again in Cherry Cobbler, trimming the word Christmas out and popping it up on top. The beautiful Gold Shimmer Ribbon is from the Christmastime Is Here Suite. I finished it off with a few Gold Metallic Pearls. 

Supplies Used:
Card Stock: Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler and Basic Black
Ink: Memento Ink and Cherry Cobbler
Stamps: Beauty and Joy
Accessories: Scripty 3D Embossing Folder, Stitched Shapes, Layering Circles, metallic Pearls, Magnolia Lane DSP, Blends and Shimmer Gold Ribbon.

Happy Stamping and Creating!!
