Christmas in July - July 18, 2018




You don't usually see all white cards from me.  This one is special.  I spent most of the other day watching HSN's craft day, and got the idea for this card.  
 I'm showing 3 pictures because each one highlights a different part of the card.  The picture above shows that this is an easel card.  It fits perfectly in a regular A2 envelope but when opened and placed behind the 'stopper', stands up!  It also takes a bit more cardstock than a regular card, but it's so stunning - I will make more of these in different designs.
 In this picture, you can see the silver embossed Season's Greetings, and the silver foil I used to make an accent piece.
Here you can see the entire card - especially the top.  When the card sits up, you can see the snowflake topper.

You'll see this card again.  I made it for a very special purpose.

Christmas Card Stamp-A-Stack

Last Saturday, October 14th I offered my Christmas Stamp-A-Stack.  Six card options, make 2 of each.  We started the day early because Stamp-A-Stacks are marathon sessions! 

I used lots of techniques and the cards ranged from very simple stamping to really detailed cuts and layers.
 This card uses Elegant Eggplant and Very Vanilla.  The center piece is embossed in white.  I tried gold to match the snowflake and silver as another option but they just didn't show up well enough on the Eggplant cardstock.  The vanilla and gold ribbon as well as the snowflake background really give this some sparkle!

 This card comes from a Hostess special offering from Stampin' Up! It's two and three step stamping.  Simple, but so pretty! 
 These 'cards' are actually treat bags turned in to both a card AND a gift card holder!  They are inspired by my friend and demonstrator Robin Smith.  I made two color options along with other details like inking the one on the right... as well as differences in pine cones and needles.

 This card is homage to my Mom!  Hi Mom!  She is a quilter.  A QUILTER!  She organizes quilt shows with her guild and competes with her quilts.  I played around with some designs using the Designer Series Paper and dies to come up with this card.  Details, details, details. 

 I'm including two photos of this card - the second with more of a side view so you can see the dimensions.  Love the snowy village! 

 I've also included two photos of this card as well.  It's by far my favorite.  Absolutely gorgeous!  White, silver glimmer paper, and dazzling diamonds paper.  I used ink, but the other cards were also all embossed with silver.
Absolutely beautiful.
