TGIF

Hello! Hope all is well!

I'm feeling better...still not 100% but much better! I've been working on lots of Christmas projects....all the Christmas cards I make I donate to raise money for those in need so no one ever gets cards from me! LOL I don't think they mind knowing 'their' card is helping someone in need! :)

Here's a peek at one of our new stamps...love this background! :)

Hope you all have a lovely weekend! :)

p.s. the stamps I used are Jane's Doodles

Let it Snow!

Hi!

Happy Monday to ya'll!

I want to share this Christmas card (which I will be entering into the Moxie Fab World: WCMD week: Make a Christmas card) I created using our Vintage Christmas, It's the Season and Patterns for Him stamp sets.

I did a little masking...I cut out an oval shape out of thin paper (with my Spellbinders oval), adhered it to my card and stamped the chevron pattern (from our Patterns for Him) over it (and removed the oval paper). I stamped the snowman (from our Vintage Christmas stamp set) onto my card and on seperate cardstock which I then coloured, cut out and adhered on top of the stamped snowman. I coloured the snowman with Graph'it markers (0000, 8240, 8280, 3245, 2160, 5220, 4150). The sentiment is from our It's the Season stamp set.

Hope you have a great day!

P.S. for those who are waiting for a package from me....it's on the way!! :)

Christmas in August!

Hey!

I'll be sharing a few Christmas cards in the next few days....I like getting started on Christmas early....planning out gifts, cards etc. I actually start shopping in September...it's saves on time and easier on the wallet when you space it out! ;)

So here's a card I created using my Vintage Christmas stamp set, for the sentiment I used a SRM sticker. For those who don't know I use to be on the SRM Design Team and I continue to use SRM stickers because they're awesome, the company is awesome...!

I distressed this card using white and some of Tim Holtz distress inks (I believe Tea Dye and Vintage Photo)...and a little glitter action on ol' St. Nick's beard! :)

Are any of you thinking about Christmas? :)

Have a great day!

quick and easy

Hi!

Two very quick and easy cards to share today....

First using our Vintage Christmas set.

And the second using Party Time. I cut this stamp apart so I can stamp each cake individually...but if you don't want to do that you can cover the images you don't want to ink up with a post it.

Hope you have a great day!!

Christmas cards

Hi!

It's been forever....I've been so busy...I think December is busy for everyone!!

One thing I've been up to is making holiday cards for my son's daycare group to raise money...I've mentioned before that times are tough here in Croatia and how parents bring everything from paper towels, wipes, plastic cups...they don't have much of anything, art supplies like paint, markers and paper.... so I got the idea to organize a holiday card workshop where I pre-cut/fold/glittered etc. and the parents and kids just put the cards together to sell infront of their room....I'm so proud to say we raised a lot of money .....more on this a little later....

Here's Mr. Penguin (you can get the digi stamp here). I used a SRM sticker sentiment.

Here's another card I made...the poinsettia, snowflakes and sentiment are from our Vintage Christmas stamp set that you can find here.

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Vintage Christmas blog hop

Hello!!!

I'm so excited to have you join us for our Vintage Christmas stamp release blog hop!! Now there's lots to see so I won't go into too much detail so if you have a question about any of my projects please ask! :)

For my first card I did a little 'resist' technique that I learned from Jennifer McGuire's Inspiration Showcase online class...I heat embossed the poinsettia image with white embossing powder and then distressed the whole thing with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Broken China. I stamped the little snowflakes in silver ink. I used a SRM sticker for the sentiment.

This next card is sooooo EASY to do!! I just stamped the snowman onto the card....I also took the little birdie from Garden Friends and stamped it on the snowman's arm....best friends! :)

Coloured with copics and I also added some chunky glitter.

Anyone who visits my blog regularily knows how much I love to make tags!! This is also a very quick and easy tag to make. I coloured the snowman with pencil crayons...added some glitter and glossy accents to the snowman....another SRM sticker too!

For this tag I stamped the poinsettia and cut it out...

Another easy tag....coloured with pencil crayons, distressed with Tim Holtz distress inks in Vintage Photo and Tea Dye and I finished it off with a mist of Perfect Pearls to give it a soft shimmery look.

Seriously....do I even need to explain this one??? :)

I really like using this poinsettia as a background....bold and colourful card! :)

And finally for my last project.....vintage chocolate!!! I stamped the poinsettia onto this kraft wrapping paper and wrapped a HUGE chocolate bar. I stamped the sentiments onto a smaller tag and distressed it with distress ink.
