Wonderful Wood Words

I used Crumb Cake card stock for the background.

I "stamped" with my emboss folder.

How do you say?

I inked up my Hexagons 3D Dynamic textured impressions folder on 

the front or top tab with Night of Navy. I laid my card stock

on top and rubbed it transferring the ink on the card stock.

I layered that onto a piece of Night of Navy and then a 

thick Whisper White base.

I then stamped the floral image from Wood Words set

on a Stitched Shapes die in a Whisper white circle along with the sentiment 

in Night of Navy.  I also stamped a rooster in same color and cut with the matching dies.

Finished it off with a sweet Night of Navy gingham ribbon bow.

This will be my first card for card classes next week and love 

how it turned out.

Thanks for stopping by!

Friendly Tulips

I designed this card for card class this month but then decided it was 

a little spring like. I stamped the tulips from Tranquil Tulips

 first in Powder Pink and then Berry Burst on top. 

The leaves are in lemon Lime Twist. Love the sentiment from 

the Beautiful Bouquet set since the Tulips have not sentiments 

in the set. I added some Powder Pink DSP on one side and Berry Burst 

scallops cut from the Seasonal Layers dies on the other side.

I finished it off with a lovely gingham Smoky Slate ribbon to 

comment the Smoky Slate base all was layered onto.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Have a blessed Wednesday!

TTTC014 Love You & Coffee Mini Treat Bag

For this week's challenge I choose the 

middle row down. I used the mini treat bag die

with Painted Autumn DSP. 

I used the glitter enamel dots  and linen thread for embellishments

and the lovely heart sentiment from the Merry Cafe set. 

 I stamped the heart in Early Espresso on Tangerine Tango

and hand snipped since none of my many heart dies/punches matched it.

I stamped the cup in Espresso on Very Vanilla and cut it with the dies. 

Also cut the lid in Espresso and the paper sleeve in Soft suede with these 

matching dies.  I did stamp in Tangerine Tango 

on the the cup before layering the items on it.

More of the Painted Autumn DSP for a banner and a Tangerine
Tango circle on the background.
Should make a cute bag to hold a note and a coffee gift card!

Hope you can play along at

Christmas Pines Wreath

This is my last card for Christmas card classes that was suppose to be this week

but rescheduled due to Irma not playing nice here in Florida!

I wanted to do a wreath with this Christmas Pines set and matching dies.

I used the large swirl from the Swirly Scribbles thinlits dies

cut in Soft Suede card stock for the wreath.

I layered some Old Olive pines branches and Real Red berry stems on before 

stamping the pine cones in Early Espresso on Very Vanilla and cutting them 

with dies to add. The 1/8" solid Real Red ribbon is new in the holiday catty this year. 

It is very thin so a little hard to make bows. 

I used two sentiments from the Christmas Pines set. A simple Real Red strip 

underneath the background piece layered on the Old Olive base to finish off.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hope you have a lovely Monday!

Peace On Earth With Carols Of Christmas

I cased this from several cards I have seen 

with this great bundle called Carols of Christmas and matching dies.

 Mostly was inspired by Holly Stene at hollyshobbs.blogspot.com 

I stamped the Peace On Earth sentiment in Emerald Envy

on a large Whisper White circle. I cut the piece of 

Night of Navy on the bottom half with a 

die from Swirly Scribbles thinlits dies then layered it on Whisper White 

so the bottom looks like a snow hill.

I used the stars die cut from Card Front 

Builder thinlits dies that coordinate with this set to cut the top.

I cut the trees with those same dies and added some 

Dazzling Diamonds glitter to them to look like snow.

The last thing it needed was the sweet deer stamped in Chocolate Chip

and cut out and sitting right on the snowy hill!   

All was layered onto a Night of Navy base to finish it off.

As the fourth card for my September Christmas card class, 

I think it will be a favorite one.

Hope you have a blessed Sunday and thanks for stopping by!

Merry Monday 255 A Metallic Joy To The World

This is my third card for September Christmas card class.

I cut a piece of the new champagne foil paper and then embossed it with 

new Winter Wonder emboss folder...love the snowflake!

I placed a couple pieces of a new DSP behind.  

The New Year of Cheer specialty DSP is so pretty and metallic.

A mix of metals- champagne, cooper, gold and silver.

I used the 1/8"silver ribbon around the layers and then 

stamped the sentiment from a retired set I really liked called 

Tin of Tags.  It was heat embossed with gold emboss powder.

I cut the sentiment with a Stitched Shapes and popped it 

on the foil.

All was layered on a piece of thick Whisper White

as a base.  

Happy with the mixed of metals which can be used anytime of year!

Have a lovely weekend and thanks for stopping by!

Night In Bethlehem

This is my second card for September Christmas card class.

I stared at the many colors trying to decided which to use for this 

awesome bundle. I finally decided to stamp Mary and Joseph with the 

donkey in Tranquil Tide to see what it looked like.

I loved it and then stamped the shepherd and cut them out with the matching dies.

I also cut a silver foil star out with the dies to layer in the sky.

I stamped the city background on Very Vanilla in Smoky Slate along 

with the stars background. 

I stamped one of the sentiments from the set in Cherry Cobbler

before adding the die cuts on.

I love the color combo of Cherry and Tide.

I layered the vanilla on a piece of Cherry Cobbler and then a Tranquil Tide base.

Hope you have a wonderful and blessed day...thanks for stopping by!
