Hi!

 

I'm not using this site anymore, please visit my new site:

 

 

See you there!

I think this design would work for either the holiday of Christmas ot Hannukah.
From the Pacific Point cardstock I punched out snowflakes, covered with clear tape on back and added Dazzling Diamonds, cut out dove and ran through Xyron for sticky adhesive and then added more Dazzling Diamonds.
Corner punch by EK Success and circle was decorated with swirl from the To You & Yours set and snowflake from Snow Burst. Paper is Ski Slope along with Baja Breeze.

 

All supplies are SU only.
This is for a few challenges that I combined today. The ways to use it challenge is to cut corners (ticket corner punch), my Doubledog Dare sister's challenge this week hosted by Francie G. to use the bleach technique (embossed stars in gold and then bleached out centers), and my local stamping pals Sharon and Julie for our weekly challenge to use a set we bought that hasn't seen any love.
Card base Brushed Gold with Riding Hood Red, Chocolate Chip, and Whisper White. Cut a Santa hat out of Real Red & White, sponged edges in Bashful Blue. Images colored in markers. Senteiment was embossed in gold and mounted with a Very Vanilla Hodgepodge Hardware Frame. Presents are from the Punch Pals set, colored, cut out, and mounted to a length of linen thread.

Give thanks for turkey dinner!
Autumn Vine paper with Chocolate Chip and Whisper White cardstocks. Images colored in markers, utensils punched from silver metallic cardstock.

 

 

Bella Rose d.p. with Kiwi Kiss, Pretty In Pink, and Riding Hood Red cardstocks.

Colored image with markers, also used corner punch, pink grosgrain ribbon and a satin rosette.

My son was so excited about this project and can't wait to begin the countdown.

All supplies used in this project are Stampin' Up. I stamped the Calendar base in chocolate chip,

added month from the Full Calendar set in Real Red, dates are in Riding Hood Red and Old Olive from

the set Calendar Alphabet & Numbers. I stamped off the snowflake from Punch Pals throughout the calendar

just to give it a little extra color and interest. (Using Pretty in Pink and Celery markers and coloring the center

portion only). The tree is from the retired Holiday Sampler stamped in Garden Green.

Ski Slope designer paper for background along with Whisper White and Chocolate Chip.

Embellished with buttons and the new laser cut felt snowflakes accented with Pretties Kit pearls.

The stickers were circle punched from the I Wish scrappin' kit and are adhesive backed.

 

Inspired by today's challenge of Don Li-Leger's art found here:

I used Apricot Appeal and Basic Gray cardstock. Shaded with Pebbles, Inc shimmery chalks, colored with markers. Embossed Bamboo in silver e.p.
Stamp sets: Bloomin' Beautiful, Organic Grace, and Oh So Lovely.

 

I've been working all day with the I Wish scrappin' kit and I'm not nearly done with half of the stuff that's in there. I love this and highly recommend it!
I'll post all of the projects I made with this kit when I am through. So far I have completed eight 6x6 scrapbook pages ready for pictures, 6 cards, 1 candy holder card, and some gift tags and I've only used about a third of the kit.

 

 

Use a stamp in a way that is was not meant for, that was today's fun

Limited Supplies challenge over at Splitcoast. Since I had Carved & Candlelit

sitting on my desk after making some Halloween cards for the neighborhood kids

I decide to use that somehow. I embossed the pumpkins in Iridescent Ice and built a

snowman. Brads ( vintage black) and some stamps from Cold Play were used along

with new Ski Slope paper and fancy non SU corner punch.

 

 

To You & Yours house stamped in chocolate with trees in olive. Housetop sprinkled with clear Chunky Sprinkles, colored in markers.
Skaters colored in markers, cut out and mounted on dimensionals. Added laser cut snowflakes and sentiment. Paper is from scrappin' kit I Wish.

 

Stamp sets: Fabulous Flowers and Punches Three.
Cardstock/paper and or ink: Kiwi Kiss, Night Of Navy, Whisper White, Urban Garden.
Ice rhinestone brads, Kiwi Kiss ribbon, scallop square punch, dimensionals, piercer, white gel pen.

Playing today with the Big Shot Baskets & Blooms die. By my third one I had the knack of adhering the bottom on fairly well. Practice, practice...
Paper used was Ski Slope and Ghostly Greetings. Candy basket will be for my son's bus driver so in case she ever sees us running down the road in the pouring rain this year trying to catch the bus she will take pity on us and wait :)

I embossed Victorian Lace background stamp on Basic Black in silver e.p. For the soot stamping I pressed the haunted house down into the freshly burned glossy cardstock to lift off some of the soot and then I stamped the same image over top this, a little off to the side in Basic Gray ink. Sprayed to seal. Mounted this up on dimensionals.

 

Images colored with markers and brads for embellishments. Ski Slope paper

and Riding Hood Red taffeta ribbon. All supplies were current SU except for large scalloped circle.

 

Bella Rose paper with Whisper White (stamped in pink with Itty Bitty Backgrounds), Old Olive, Pirouette Pink, Ruby Red layers. A Rose Is A Rose stamped and cut out for embellishment on dimensionals. Pink ribbon with pearls.

The star book was from a kit so it went together pretty quickly, I used Cloud 9 Design paper for covers and a Pretties Kit flower, and white grosgrain ribbon. The inside is decorated just on the first couple of pages, I ran out of challenge time. I will finish inside, add pics and send it to my Billy's grandmother for Christmas.

For this week's inspiration challenge found here:
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/fo...post1181533 3

I used the Papertrey Ink butterfly and the color combo of Banana, Pirouette and Pretty In Pinks. Cuttlebugged backgrounds and did a grid pattern on main image. Soft Subtles brads for flower centers, flowers embossed in white.

Ghostly Greetings designer paper used with Top Note Big Shot die with Real Red.
