To Every Season

Merry Christmas, Magnolia

October 22, 2019 · 2 Comments

Here is our latest 2 week challenge –

Optional Theme : Stripes

How about a simple Christmas card?

Doesn’t get any more simpler than this!

Both pattern papers are from the Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper pack. The smaller, flower patters was colored with a Real Red Blends marker. The flowers were white.

I corner notched that piece adding a bow and the tag. Merry Christmas is from To Every Season stamp set. It has a nice fall variety of sentiments and images.

So easy you don’t even need a Christmas paper for this!

Joy of Sets – Same Stamp Set 3 Ways

October 19, 2019 · 12 Comments

Welcome to our blog hop for Joy of Sets!

Our theme this time around is one stamp set, created 3 different ways!

Oh. . . . Did I have fun with this!

My main stamp set / bundle that I started with was the Cup of Christmas bundle. I think this is extremely versatile for any occasion.

And, I added lots of other products too!

I designed a card for fall, Halloween and Christmas –

cute. Cute. CUTE!!!!!! Right??

Each card started with a colored card base, a coordinating color and a piece of woodgrain Come to Gather Designer Series Paper.

Each card also used the To Every Season bundle, stamp set and four coordinating punches. The sentiments were all die cut with the Stitched Rectangles Dies.

Each card then had some nifty touches.

The stripes on the cup on the fall card are from Tiny Keepsakes stamp set. The cute little twine bow is from the Come to Gather Ribbon Combo Pack.

Here, the plaid pattern on the cup is also from the Tiny Keepsakes stamp set. The smile is stamped from the Harvest Hellos. The small strip of Designer Series Paper is from Monster Bash. The twine is retired Stampin’ Up! from a few years ago.

So, so, so cute! I love snowman! His face was created from pieces in the Let It Snow Embellishment kit. His scarf is Real Red 1/8″ Curly Ribbon. The strip of Designer Series Paper here is Let it Snow.

Welcome to our Thursday Create with Connie and Mary sketch challenge!

Here is our newest color challenge –

I took a Christmas approach with these unlikely Christmas colors and variety of products –

A created a cute snowman in a snow globe! He, as well as the sentiment, are from the Snowman Season stamp set. Just adorable!

The stamped snowflakes around the globe and the loose small snowflakes in the globe are from the To Every Season bundle. It is stamps and 4 different mini punches!

The globe and base were cut from the Snow Globe Scenes Dies.

Pretty easy card that combines lots of cute products!
