Note card using Endless Wishes by Stampin' Up!

Hello!

I found these pictures of some little note cards I made last month on my phone last night and wanted to share them with you today. Thanks for all your lovely comments the last couple of days about still seeing Christmas cards too! I'll share all that I still have with you over the next few days ;-)

For this card I used a colour combo of Lost Lagoon, Strawberry Slush and Sahara Sand stamped directly onto the Note Cards to make CAS one layer cards...

This sentiment is in the set and I thought it made this a lovely wintry greetings card

and a few together to finish

OK, Short and sweet today as I'm off to take my Dad back today after him spending Christmas with us.

Thanks for looking today and I'll be back soon with more :-)

A Little Get our Santa On by Stampin' Up! Christmas Card

Hello!

I hope you have had a lovely Christmas?! I have done zero crafting but am hoping to get in my craft room later today and have a play with my pre-order goodies. I have had these for about a fortnight now and just looked at them, quite a lot! But I have not had a chance to play.. yet ;-)

So, I have one last Christmas card for you today using Get Your Santa On. I do love this little set but it will be retiring on the 5th January :-( I feel like I have just gotten in the swing of Christmas Cards and now it's over! Lol!

I stamped this image onto Whisper White card and punched the top with the Tag Topper Punch, I then layered the white layer onto Pear Pizazz card and trimmed around it to make this tag topper

 I coloured Santa with Cherry Cobbler, Smoky Slate and Skin Tone blendabilities and added a Dazzling Diamonds Beard using a Glue pen

and I added a little layer of Trim the Tree DSP for a pop of colour ;-)

OK, I'm off to take FiL back home today then come back and get a bit cleaned up here and maybe get a bit of crafting time in later too :-)

Thanks for stopping by today, hope you get some crafting time in some today ;-)

Special Christmas Card using Ornamental Pine by Stampin' Up!

Happy Sunday!

I have the second card from my Special Christmas Cards class last week for you today. I have made cards (at Christmas usually) like this before, where you usually cover the card in Heat and Stick powder then top with Dazzling Diamonds glitter for an all over sparkle which works wonderfully and looks fab. This year I discovered Iridescent Ice embossing powder does the same job with one step less!! Bonus! 

OK, so I knew I wanted to make this style of card and knew it would need a quite solid image like Lovely as a Tree (which I don't actually own, *gasp*) or Ornamental Pine, which I do have ;-) You see what I did there? So I started playing and made this card which I realised after I made it that it was very similar to a lot I have seen around on the web! I went looking again and found Dawn's video HERE, mine is actually a bit different with less inking and more Cherry Cobbler but thanks for the inspiration to everyone who has made this card before me ;-)

 I obviously loved it and this is my own version here...

 We stamped and embossed a couple of extra pine cones to add on with dimensionals for extra texture.

 OK, I know it's kind of blurry picture but it does show the sparkle ;-)

 I adore this Cherry Cobbler Linen ribbon, the bows it ties are just lush! 

Top Tip: If you have trouble getting your top fold card to stay standing up your first move should be to re-enforce your crease line with a bone folder, this usually works. If you still have trouble and have ribbon around the top (like this card) slide the ribbon down a couple of millimetres so it's not sitting right up to the crease line (like this one is here) and it *should* stay up perfectly. 

You probably know this already and I'm slow off the mark (again!) - well it's obvious really when you think about it, (Doh! me) - but my class ladies all appreciated this tip so I thought I'd share it with you anyway ;-)

and a side view of today's card

 Inside we stamped the sentiment from the set and a few more pine cones

and made another matching tag 

 and here they are both together to finish today!

Right, thanks again for stopping by today. I hope you enjoyed the card and my ramblings ;-)

I have to get ready today for my last class of this year, we're making THIS FRAME :-D and I have designed 9 more squares for inspiration which I will share with you later this week too :-)

Remember: You need to book your place to come along to my classes when they re-start this January including the first one which is FREE!

Please Message me for details :-)
