Let It Snow Embossed Card

Here's a fun Wintery embossed card.

I embosses the blue cardstock panel with a Darice embossing folder and then swiped my ink pad across the raised lines. The tag was made with the JustRite Charming Christmas stamp set. I finished my card with a border of pearls made with a Viva Decor Pearl Pen Ice White.


Supplies:

Have a great day!

Tea Set Card Class - Feb. 4



Hello Stampers!

Here are a few of my favourite things:
- Tim Holtz distress inks
- MFT stamps & dies
- Kraft paper
- twine



This is a class I'm teaching at Scrappin' Great Deals on Feb. 4 using the My Favorite Things Always Time for Tea stamp & die set. I love stamps with matching dies and this set has a fabulously versatile array!

MFT Die-namics Always Time for Tea Die & Stamp Set YSTMT

I've also used one of my favourite 6x6 paper pads, Little Black Dress, by Basic Grey. This is one of those sets that I hoard preciously in preparation for when I can no longer buy it! It has the most beautiful leopard print paper in it. Too delicious for words!

Those of you in the know can probably tell that I took the "Clean & Simple Card Making" online class. What a fanastic class! I so enjoyed it.

Happy Stamping!

Springtime Background & Boarders Set

Good morning everyone.

Can you believe it, it is almost the end of January. Thought I would do a Tag for valentines and use some of the technique's that we used to do the 12 days of Christmas with Tim. I have 5 of the tags done. My goal is to finish them before the next set.

Here are the list of products I used for this tag:

Tim Holtz Springtime Background and Boarder Set

Mini Sewing Room Set Movers & Shapers

Picket Fence & Spun Sugar distress Stain.

Spun sugar, Victorian Rose and Vintage Photo distress Inks.

Tim Holtz Stamp Set called Love Struck.

Glass Effect Gel Pen from Viva Decor.

I first coloured my tag with picket fence stain and then the spun sugar. Wait for this to dry.
Emboss the tag with the Springtime Embossing Folder. Stamp the tag with the Victorian Rose, I then inked the edges and the raised areas with the vintage photo.
I cut out the dress form with the Sewing room die set but I used some canvas material I had.
I used the glass effect on the Love & 14 that is on the smaller tag.



Thanks for looking and have a great day.

*BRAND NEW!* Inky Impressions!


Welcome our new little stamp friends from Inky Impressions!  This little guy is Mischievous Christopher.

I thought he seemed just right for a Valentine's Day card to a Daddy (bless!).  I used my new favorite 6x6 paper pad from My Mind's Eye called "Love Me".

My Mind's Eye Love Me 6x6 Paper Pad  LM0112

I love that it has cute banners in it - and isn't all pink & white.  PERFECT for a child's card too!  Little Christopher is stamped on XPress It with Memento Tuxedo Black and coloured with Copics (see colours below).

In fact, my 7 year old, Samuel, loved it so much that he sat down beside me to create one too!  Here is the card that he created, with a little cutting help from Mummy of course.



Copics:  E01, E00, E000; E35, E31, YR20; R27, R24, R22, R20; BG09, BG07, BG05, BG02; B00; G05, G02, G00; BG10; C1, C0, C000.
