Happiest of Christmases

I used a quick and easy layout for this card. I cut a couple of pieces of the designer paper and then over laped them a little to hide the seam. I cut the buck head from a large grey glitter paper then I heat embossed the sentiment in white and popped it up with foam tape.

Supplies: White and black cardstock, Designer Paper - Wild Whisper, Woodware-Happiest, misc die cut.

Have a great day,

Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #270

We have a new Merry Monday Christmas card challenge,  Kelly is our hostess and her challenge is to Create a Christmas card using diagonal, horizontal, or vertical line.

I went right down the left hand side for this challenge. I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment popping it up with foam tape.

I used a die cut for the scissors and the bow, this is a card for my stylist so I had to get them in somewhere.

For the final line item I used DP that is a rich wintery burgundy, that is in the family of red.. yes?

I added a layer of paper underneath and cut it as if it is being peeled back. I finished with some gold Nuvo drops but I find they don't settle the same way the plain black ones do so I must be doing something wrong.

Supplies: Kraft and brown cardstock, Designer Paper - Teresa Collins, misc die cuts and Nuvo drops.

Be sure to stop by the Merry Monday blog to take a look at all the fabulous cards created by the design team.

Play along with another fabulous challenge.

Cheers,

Real Tree Birthday

I have been pretty lucky this past year to acquire a great selection of paper pads that make it easy to put together quick and easy cards. I will admit that it should be easy but I always futz and it takes me longer to put it all together ;).

With this card, I used an easy design and pieces together two different patterns and matted them with black cardstock. I added a sentiment that is embossed in white and popped up with foam tape. I then finished with Nuvo drops.

Supplies: White and black cardstock, Designer Paper - Uniformed, Poppy Stamps-No truffle at all, Nuvo Drops.

Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #269

We have a new Merry Monday Christmas card challenge for you today. Debbie is our hostess and her challenge is to Create a Christmas card with tree of the inspiration photo colours.

I used blues and red on my card. I used layers of blue and red cardstock to matte my designer paper.  I heat embossed my sentiment with a blue glittery embossing powder. The sparkle played tricks on the camera, the sentiment is actually not missing parts of the letters.

I backed the sentiment with some foam tape and finished the card with a large snowflake brad.

Supplies: Red and blue cardstock, Designer Paper - Echo Park, Penny Black - Yuletide Wishes, brad.
